Thanks to Armando and Juan, we felt very welcome in Buenos Aires from the very beginning. They did all the paperwork professionally and on time. Our ceremony took place in a beautiful building of Registro Civil Central in the heart of the city. Our friends attended, and for those who couldn’t come, we arranged a live stream on Instagram. Thanks again for making it the most exciting moment of our lives!
Wonderfull guys, very professional and kind.
