Civil Ceremony Requirements, Full List

I posted recently about a few of the various legal requirements involved when planning your Mexican destination wedding, but I thought that it would be helpful to include the full list of civil ceremony requirements--the last thing you would want is to leave any detail unattended! Make sure to have the following:

1. Completed Civil Ceremony Form
2. Valid passports
3. Birth certificates (original or certified copy of each one) 
4.  Original blood test--tests must be taken at the resort and results are ready within 24 hours
5. If either party is widowed, an original or certified copy of former spouse's death certificate
6. Legal documentation of adoption or name change (if applicable)
7. If either party is divorced, a copy of the divorce decree. If the divorce took place outside of Mexico, it must be authenticated and translated. Divorced parties can remarry in Mexico after one year after the termination of their previous marriage.
8. Tourist ID card (provided by customs upon your arrival at Cancun International Airport)
9. Name, age, nationality, home address and occupation of 4 witnesses. Witnesses must arrive 3 business days prior to the wedding in order to complete the documentation process and must be 18 years of age or older at the time of the ceremony. Witnesses can also be provided by the resort for a fee.
10. Marriage license fee--fee varies, but is approximately $200
