I’m grateful I came across this site. I came across this website googling info on how to marry in a different country and bring someone into to the U.S.

My name is Derek and I fell in love with someone in Nicaragua. It started as a vacation that I was going to end short because I didn't speak Spanish and I was alone and didn't feel like I fit in anywhere. So I called and rebooked my flight 9 days early and planned to spend the rest of my days in some nice hotel next to the airport and wait it out. I was staying at a hostel and my soon to be wife was working there. Now, I fell in love with this girl at first sight, but didn’t come to Nicaragua to hook up or to fall in love so I never said anything to her. (Shy) The night before I was going to leave, she came to me while I was lying on a hammock reading a book and asked me if I would like to take a walk with her she said she was getting off work in ten minutes. I looked around and said “me”? She laughed and said “yes”. We spent the next day together seeing a volcano and that night, sitting outside (I was dropping her off at where she was staying) a man came out of nowhere and told us we where two lost stars in the universe and have found each other. We refer to him as “the man in the street” he is a huge part of our story. But the next day I left for the airport 3 hours away, early in the morning. When I got to the airport something inside of me told me to go back. I told the driver to “take me back”. (I missed my flight) When she saw me she said “you’re crazy”, I told her “you’re right, crazy for you”. We spent the rest of my 9 days together traveling all over, I met her family, learned to wash cloths by hand, cook on an outdoor oven with wood, and draw water from a well. I was in love and she loved me, it was magic. When she took me to the airport I told her I would be back, that I loved her and asked her to marry me. She said “yes” then asked me if this was a dream and if she was going to wake up.. I said “I hope not”. Since I have been back, 2 weeks now, I’ve been going crazy being away. We have already planned the marriage it will be in Nica in early September. I’ve contacted the embassy and found out what I need to do, in order to bring her here to the states. I never knew it was so much, so long and so much money. *UGH* but its okay. This is my journey…..

"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.

That would be cool to have some music!!

We met in San Juan del Sur. She was working at a hostel for a few days. From there we traveled all over. Her home is in Nancimi close to Revas. Then Spent the remaining days in Managua. That's where she's at right now, working for the Gov. at the Dept of Ministry as a intern or something to that effect.
