Document Translation Help!!!

hello, I'm in the process of getting married but I'm kind of confused with the whole translation situation. the documents I must provide is a birth certificate and also a letter of singlenesshood. I just received my birth certificate (Born In NY) which will need to be translated into Spanish. Now here is my question with that birth certificate is it a two part process? 1) getting the apostille on the original (english version) birth certificate. and 2) getting my birth certificate translated into spanish by using www.certifiedtranslation.net. which they will apostille for me. So in other words do I have to have two separate birth certificates one in english and one in spanish apostilled to take to colombia? With the Singleness letter someone on the this website gave me a good link to a singleness letter which is in english and spanish. The Singleness letter could be done on ones own? Or does it have to go through www.certifiedtranslation.net also? I have a general Idea of what to do in receiving the apostilles I'm just confused on how to proceed. PLEASE help I would really appreciate it.
