i didnt check through your documents, im not really an expert in that, but it appears you are very organized, and based on what everyone else has said it looks like you have everything.

im just writing to focus you on something people tend to forget about on here, like dzyrhetom said, refamiliarize yourself with your fiancee's background and history...and make SURE you can repeat it easily and smoothly in english, according to my wife ALOT of filipinas had difficulty in the interview when they were asked questions they didnt know the answer to, or they didnt know how to say it in english...so make sure you are prepared for that as well and you will be just fine :)

"Our Wedding Prayer"

Lord,help us to remember when we first met,and the strong love that grew between us.

To work the love into practical things so nothing can divide us

Grant us a Love that grows stronger with each passing year.

We ask for words both kind and loving

and for hearts always ready to ask forgiveness as well as to forgive.

Guide us to overcome every challenge

and keep our dreams pure to each other always.

Dear Lord,we put our marriage into Your hands.Amen

If your heart acquires strength, you will be able to remove blemishes from others without thinking evil of them.
