Island Wedding, Small reception entertainment?


Recommended Posts

Hi! I'm getting married in St. croix (Carambola Beach) with a small ceremony and about 25 guests. We are planning a small reception to follow, but right now it's basically just a dinner. Is there usually entertainment, such as a DJ or live music, at a reception so small, or is it generally just a dinner that follows the beach ceremony? Thanks!!

Hi Deb! Welcome to the Forum!!

I almost had my wedding at Carambola - we did all of the planning and details and decided against it right before signing the contract. The reason we decided not to do it was our date is not flexible (Fri 9/5/0cool.gif and they have their weekly party on Friday's and couldn't have a 'seperate event' which would have meant that our wedding reception would be part of a party with othe people...also early Sept is hurricane season in the Carribean so we didn't want to take that risk.

If you have any specific questions, feel free to post them here or PM me.

Thanks,
alyssa

I've heard about the party that is held on Fridays, and from what I understand it's kind of a big affair! I agree, sharing your wedding reception with many strangers is not ideal. Thank you for sharing your story, I may definitely have questions in the future! :)

    • 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!
