Default Witnesses needed for Gibraltar wedding

hi,

we are marrying in gibraltar on the 5th of July and are in desperate need of a couple of witnesses.

we are having the big ceremony back in Spain but have decided to come to gibraltar to do the legal bit.

is there anyone out there that is willing to help us out?

I´m keeping my fingers crossed....

many thanks

I think the people arranging the ceremony, like the Rock Hotel, arrange that too, at least they do in Las Vegas.

(Mind you I don't recall seeing them at the ceremony, perhaps they didn't like Elvis).

Just grab any two people off the street and offer them some money (or similar).

thanks for all the replies.

we would take people from the wedding party but as it is a week day it is very difficult for people to take the time off to come down to gibraltar.

do you think i will be able to find someone from the street to help?!?!

Maybe you`re too cheap, put it up to 2 beers and two wines.
