Does the Saturday vigil Mass fulfill the Sunday obligation?

[Sean.McKenzie]

My girlfriend and I prefer going to the Saturday vigil Mass at our parish. Does this validly fullfill our Sunday obligation? The reason we choose this Mass is because it seems to be the most orthodox out of the ones offered at our church.

Yes, the Saturday vigil Mass fulfills the Sunday obligation:

The obligation of assisting at Mass is satisfied wherever Mass is celebrated in a Catholic rite either on a holy day itself or on the evening of the previous day (canon 1248 §1, Code of Canon Law [1983], emphasis added).
