Hi --

I'm new here.

I've been working with a travel agent/DW planner from the states for some time now to help plan my wedding that's happening on October 15th, 2010

I'm deaf, and a couple guests to our wedding are also deaf. So my agent has been trying to find an interpreter for the day of the wedding. Really all i need is someone to interpret the wedding ceremony and then a few toasts. That's it!

i hate to think i have to fly in an interpreter from the states just for 2 hours of work, if even (minimum tends to be 2 hours).

Hope someone can help me here! Thanks!

Erin

A couple of thoughts:

Contact the Aruba Tourism Authority for local resources.

Ask your wedding planner or hotel coordinator for assistance in locating someone on the island.

Aruba has a School for the Deaf. An internet/telephone directory search comes up with
