After dating for over 5 years while Elizabeth was here in Atlanta on her TN visa, getting engaged July of 2012, sending I129F package last October, Ciudad Juarez approval and getting K1 visa last month (almost one year wait), both of us flying into Atlanta from Mexico City two weeks ago, we are getting married today at 1:30. Thanks to God for making this happen. Thanks to everyone on Visa Journey for their assistance. The last few weeks have been non stop trying to get everything ready for today. Now I just have to show up with my tuxedo on. Elizabeth's mom flew to Atlanta with us and of course will be part of the wedding. Her mom does not speak any English and my Espanol is very limited. Our bilingual pastor will have me say a few lines in Spanish and I pray with my southern accent I do not mispronounce any Spanish words that get interpreted into something bad in Spanish!

Once we get back from our honeymoon and get settled I plan to write up a guide of what we went through in Ciudad Juarez to assist anyone that will be going through that Consulate's office.

Well the next step will be adjustment of status, advance parole, and work authorization! Already working on that paperwork...the journey continues!

May God Bless each and everyone of you.

John and Elizabeth
