CW emailed today with the new 2011 wedding package price for our hotel and it's a little higher than we want to pay. Only around £250 but i'm gonna email the WC at the hotel direct and see if she can do it any cheaper.. Worth a try a suppose. Every little helps doesn't it? Then hopefully we will confirm and get a contract signed! So exciting!!

Oh that sucks!! Maybe try and play it that you "booked" in 2010 so therefore you budgeted based on those prices n that it was never mentioned before?

I found out today that my resort wants $5 PER CHAIR to put a bow on! So thats $100 just to decorate some chairs u gotta be kidding me!!

Kerry.....The chair and bow decoration is the same as our hotel the cost is quite high, they are also charging me for napkins etc as well!!!!

 

Nicyx......Congrats on the date confirmation it's fantastic that you got the date you wanted.

 

Michelle & Nicyx.....I am wanting personalised shot glasses to but not yet managed to find them, many places are asking for a high minimum order number and i only want about 20, if you find any let us know, i will do the same.

i find the cost of chair bows absolutely awful! how can they justify that?! my hotel are charging me $55 for 'set up costs' so she said i can bring anything i want on chairs/tables etc. so i bought the chiffon/taffata from ebay and they're going to put some on chairs (but not every chair, just down the aisle chairs etc)

thanks hon! course i don't mind! basically i bought some 220gsm paper. I designed the invites on powerpoint (I can email you them if you want?) and just printed them onto the paper. then i bought some of that acetate (I think that's what it's called) paper and cut each A4 page into three (long ways) and folded it round the invites and secured it with a tab (all of this from hobbycraft). then i attached the ribbon around the acetate the same way and added the starfish last (again with those sticky tab things) and they looked great!

    • 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!
    • 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!
