Looks like there are a bunch of girls from Calgary. Any other Toronto/GTA brides out there? It'd be great to exchange ideas on local agents, places for decorations (shared shipping?!), AHRs, etc.

 

I'm from Toronto and planning for a December 2014 wedding!

Toronto here. Well actually Mississauga but I work in Toronto. We're working at planning a vow renewal for Playa del Carmen for October 2015. Gran Porto Real is still number one choice, but Grand Suns

Hi tygrrlily!

Toronto here. Well actually Mississauga but I work in Toronto. We're working at planning a vow renewal for Playa del Carmen for October 2015. Gran Porto Real is still number one choice, but Grand Sunset Princess is right there too. I also did the site webinar last month for Playacar Palace and was impressed with what I heard from the Rep.

 

I definitely can recommend Marlin Travel on Bay street as an agent. They were super to work with!  We had our at home reception in Burlington since that's where we lived at the time, in a hotel overlooking the lake. The room had floor to ceiling windows so when it got dark we had the lights out over the lake, plus from the Skyway bridge. It was really pretty. We just had a small group - only 30 - but people still talk about it. We had a great night! I'm very lucky that my step-son lives in the US so I order things and have them sent to his address, then just pick them up when we go down to see our grandkids. A heck of a lot cheaper and the shipping rates are unreal compared to canada!!

 

I know a few good websites for decorations if anyone is interested, depending on what you're looking for. Right off the bat I would recommend www.etsy.com for all kinds of things.

 

Happly planning ladies!

I'm also a Toronto bride! Having my civil ceremony in Toronto in July 2015 and planning to leave a few days later for a destination wedding in the Mayan Riviera, Mexico.

So excited but so much to do! I haven't even picked a resort yet!

Oh I love that you phrased it that way! Mature! I like that lol  I guess that's what I am too lol I'm 56 in just a couple of weeks and second time arounder... (is that a word?) We have 7 grandkids and I have 2 kids and 2 step kids but really all 4 are mine. Getting married again wasn't in the cards for us until health issues sort of made the decision for us, and now we're looking at a vow renewal for the same reason. I'm still trying to finish the research for the "where", and thankfully have time yet before I have to decide. And another hospital stay to get through too. But then hopefully it will all come together!

 

3 weeks is so close! And yes this site is fabulous for ideas, and tips and information. I'm glad it was helpful for you! Be sure to post pictures when you get back! Good luck and congratulations!

I'm a Toronto bride too!  April 2015 at the Royalton Punta Cana.  I've just started planning.  Does anyone know if you can have a symbolic ceremony in the Dominican and then have the legal ceremony in Canada when you return?  Or do you have to be legally married before you go to the Dominican for the symbolic ceremony?

Yay so many Toronto ladies! I'm hoping to get married at the Beach Palace, but we're going through some booking issues but will hopefully have it resolved this week!
 

@@acw271011 - I LOVE etsy - I have spent so many hours on it browsing everything!

 

@@LiannaBanana - I'm not sure if Dominican is like Mexico, but in Mexico it seems like you can do either.

      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!
