My boyfriend converted to judaism almost two years ago and I converted almost one year ago. We have decided to get married and we want to have a Jewish ceremony. The problem is neither of us has ever witnessed a Jewish wedding so we don't really know what we are supposed to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

An excellent resource is The New Jewish Wedding, by Anita Diamant. That book gives a great deal of information about the various rituals and variations practiced by Jews of all stripes.
The second and just as valuable resource is your Rabbi. He will know which local vendors couples have gone to sucessfully and he will also be able to provide you with information about what customs he prefers/doesn't approve of.

Mazel Tov!
The wedding is quite different than a Christian one, but probably shorter. Check out the Aish HaTorah link from a previous post.
