I've attempted to create an English/Spanish door prize for a Hispanic bridal/quinceanera expo on Sunday. If you speak Spanish, would you PLEASE proof read it to make sure the translation make sense and are correct?? I'd hate to get there on Sunday and have some horrible mistake in the door prize slip.:yuck:

MANY thanks in advance!!!!

Carol -- There's more than a few things wrong with it. I actually have a door prize slip that PC uses. I would use their terminology. Can you post your doc in Word? I'll send you corrections that way, if you'd like?For starters, it's Telefono (no "ph" )Let me know...
