There are so many places to have a small quaint wedding in Key West:

- Key West Botanical Gardens (that's where we had it - I can recommend my wedding planner to you and photographer if you're interested...PM me)
- Hemingway House
-At one of the many Historic homes that are also hotels/B&Bs
-Waterfront by the Hyatt (be prepared to pay $$ resort prices)

Really depends on your budget....If you want more info, PM me with specifics! biggrin.gif

Hey you! I was wondering where you'd got to! Trailmix is here now too! kicking.gif

Wow. What a beautiful picture. And I LOVE your bouquet! It looks like orchids and carnations? It's a beautiful combination, anyway.

Congratulations!


hi hi! I missed you all!

Yes we're all part of the big Florida family! he he he

Actually they are Peonies and orchids (Dendrobiums). They smelled so good too!

Thank you for all the well wishes....I think I can actually start breathing again not having to do any more planning.....phew...

CanadaHi All! AOS Time!
Hi Everyone!

I'm finally back...sorry to have been away for so long...planning a wedding and actually having it took up soooo much time!

Here's a pic from our wedding just this past Sat. May 3, 2008 in Key West.

We just registered our wedding certificate/license and now comes the fun part with all the AOS, EAD and AP paper work!

I've got everything together ready for submission (AOS, EAD and AP) however each form is asking for 2 passport photos each. That would mean 6 photos in the package.

Is that necessary since I'm submitting them all together (there is already 1 set with the AOS forms)?

Welcome welcome!

Things are different down here but you'll adjust! Think of all the sales at Targhey (Target)! he he he

As for paperwork...alas the sad reality is that it's just as time consuming although this time I am use to putting the answers in...it's becoming a little mechanical...he he he

Good luck!

CanadaName Change?
FYI I tried to go change my FL driver's license with my marriage license but they wouldn't let me.

They said that I need to produce my Resident's card or my Canadian Passport with the updated married name.

I had no problems changing my U.S bank info or my SSN.

CanadaOriginals or photocopies @ MTL interview
photocopies of your u.s. proof of income is fine.

you will need a photocopy of the CDN passport.

I can't remember what else we did for photocopes...

Try doing a search within this site...I remember there being a lot of discussion on this before...

Ok so finally I got my Biometrics interview....

From what I remember I need to bring $80 cash?

Thanks in advance!

Canadaproof of relationship - what's required?
We just brought photos and our weddding invitation.

Our photos had the date stamp on it from the camera so we had pictures of us going way back...we didn't bring phone records either. I did bring letters and cards we had sent one another as well.

When we went in for the interview I asked if they wanted our proof and the guy said that it wasn't necessary.

CanadaBody Worlds Exhibit
We saw it when it was at the Science Centre in Toronto....amazing truly! But it was crazy busy! People packed shoulder to shoulder and you had to buy a ticket for a particular time frame.

They actually let us hold a liver that had gone through that 'plasticization' (sp).

Very interesting in deed!

The kids seemed to like it although they kept pointing and snickering at the private parts that were exposed....he he he

CanadaK1 Visa
we've flown with our dog back and forth many times....

best suggestion is play with them, run around at home or the park before you put them in the carrier so that they are all pooped. His/her favorite toy and their blankie.

Our dog just usually sleeps when he's in his carrier....we got him use to it when he was a puppy......

CanadaCrossing the canadian border question
I say cross the border prepared with all your legal embarassing paperwork so that in the worse case if they do ask for more details for your long 'vacation' from the U.S. you'll have the evidence of why you were away for so long.

Think of it when you applied for your Residency.....you probably had an interview somewhere along the line and over prepared with your paperwork just incase wink.gif

I think you'll be fine because you have a good/legal reason all documented, embarassing albeit.

CanadaHubby coming down for a visit
Things will be ok...as another poster mentioned...stay busy! Go do more activities with family and friends! Take this opportunity to enjoy your surroundings before you move!

We had to wait almost a year before we got to finally be together and it was hard but I found keeping myself busy to be the best cure!

Enjoy your time together! Hug and kiss each other lots!
