Bio:
My name is Christine
Rock and I'm the Principal Event Planner for VIVA Las Weddings. I began
planning and coordinating special events 15 years ago and launched the opening
of VIVA Las Weddings in 2003 as a full-time professional specializing in wedding
events. My past experience includes event coordination for community
festivals for 20,000 to 40,000 visitors as well as large weddings and corporate
events so rest assured,
your special day is in very capable and experienced hands. Since 2003,
I've had the pleasure of assisting dozens of couples in realizing their wedding
day vision and it's been a very rewarding experience - one that I continue to
enjoy very much. No matter what the logistics are, how many guests attend,
orientation, and/or culture, you can count on your special event being handled
with professionalism, expertise, efficiency, and enthusiasm. |

All packages serve as
guidelines and can be customized to suit - services can be added, deducted, or substituted
and tailored to meet your specific needs.
In most cases, special requests can be
accommodated with advance notice. |
|
The
Marriage License ($100 fee) and Marriage Commissioner services are included in
wedding package prices. I'll meet
with you in Vancouver to obtain your Marriage License - this always ensures an
in-person meeting prior to your wedding. In addition to your personal
information and picture identification, you'll
need to know the full names (including maiden
names for Mothers) and birthplaces of both sets
of parents. |
|
|
|
Your
Marriage Certificate (issued and certified by British Columbia Vital
Statistics) in long format will be mailed directly to your residence within 6
weeks of your wedding event at no extra cost. |
|
|
Final balances are due 30 days
prior to your wedding event. | |
| Tax Rebate Program for
Non-Residents Visiting Canada: |
|
The Canadian government has
implemented a HST rebate program for non-residents who purchase tour
packages while visiting Canada.
Our wedding packages that include at least one night accommodation and one service qualify for what the Canadian government calls a "tour package". Please click here for more information. |
