MP does provide a cake cutting knife and serving spatula. The knife is a serrated dinner knife. Pete actually cut the cake with the serving spatula and then Lily (our WC) came over and made us do it again with the real knife.

I saw a post awhile back asking for feedback on Lily - she's fantastic. She was with us from 5:30-8:30 making sure everything went as planned. I had read a review by Marie (I think) who said her WC was pretty much missing in action and that was not my exp at all. Lily is wonderful, very organized, patient, and accommodating.

The downfall of the low occupancy is that MP has decided to cut costs by closing the disco (they actually said it is closed for maint but we believe it just isn't economically feasible to keep it open when there are so few people). They have also closed one of the pool bar restauant but the other restaurant is not far and any of the wait staff will take your order and deliver your food. We've also heard that their occupancy is going to be even less next week - it's crazy the effect the media has had (swine flu blowout).

Moon Palace Grand is amazing. Switch your reservations to that side if you can.

Congratulations Cami! You're a married woman now! I can't wait to read your review and see some pics :) I'm glad everything worked out for you!

Just a quick question whenever you get a chance, was your wedding at 6pm? What was the weather like during your ceremony and what time did the sun set? My wedding is around the same time next year at 5pm. Is it still really hot at that time? Thanks!

Yes Tina, there are irons in every room. We had the grooms suit pressed, they charged 20$

Good to know. Pressing of my dress is included in the package we purchased so we can drop his suit off at the same time I drop mine off.

Yes the wedding was at 6pm and by that time the temperature had gone down a little bit but not much. I would say that it was probably close to 90 but it felt more like 85 because of the breeze. The sunset around 7:15 and I knew that going in and that is why we wanted to have our family photo session prior to the ceremony otherwise all of the photos would have been in the dusk.

      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!
