you definately should have the tea ceremony! maybe on your wedding day so you're both dressed in your wedding attire?

 

we were planning on doing all of that at the resort but our parents aren't coming due to the AHR so we're doing it all at home, but if they were coming, we would definately incorporate those traditions. don't forget to get some cushions (from the resort?) if you intend on kneeling  =)

 

maybe you could play some soft music during the tea ceremony in case?

Any brides doing any cultural stuff from their heritage? I'm half taiwanese and want to incorporate the traditional tea ceremony. I can't decide if I should do it during rehearsal dinner or have it on wedding day. With the concert going on next door, it's going to really make me upset if I hear their music during this quiet moment.

 

Any suggestions? I'm leaning towards rehearsal dinner day.

Hi All,

i will be getting married at the Royal on Apr. 10 2011.  I have a few questions and hoping to get some advice:

 

1.  is a beach reception better at the Royal or Gran Porto?

2.  is it a pain to stay at the Royal when all of our guests are staying at the Gran Porto?  We need to stay at the Royal in order to have the wedding there but im concerned about not being able to spend time with our guests and being able to have my bridal party stay with me the night before the wedding...

3.  how expensive the the Glass Bar restaurant for a private welcome party?  any other suggestions for places to hold a welcome party?

 

any suggestions/info would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks so much!

-Cat

The atmosphere is awesome and your on this huge roof top with lounge areas. Like I said the food is really good, I hope they give you good pricing for a group. However nothing is going to be as cheap as doing it at the resort. Form all the reviews I have heard Marias is the best spot for a rehearsal dinner, especially with a group of 40.

 

Lisa love both of your dresses! you are going to look stunning. You got a lot done.

 

 

Thanks, Jess! I feel I accomplished a lot :-)

I also went to David's Bridal and bought a TTD dress that is so light (sigh lol...but at least i won't drown in it hehe): http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Soft-A-Line-Chiffon-Gown-with-Side-Drape-WG3077_Bridal-Gowns-Shop-By-Theme-Destination (I'll probably sell it after)

 

I also bought flower girl dress,ordered my sand ceremony vases and table overlays.... Whew! Lot's done yesterday

 

 

Lisa - Gorgeous bridal dress!! I love it! It's your day - wear whatever you want!! I like your TTD one as well. It mimics your but won't weigh you down. It'll be a beautiful wedding!!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
