Is it enough?


Recommended Posts

Lately I have been thinking (maybe too much), are we doing enough for our guests? We are having a small wedding (20-24 people) in Turks and Caicos. The first day we are hosting a catered welcome bonfire BBQ. And of course the wedding reception. All events are open bar. Should we do more for our guests? should we host deep sea fishing/snorkeling in addition to BBQ? brunch the day after?

how many events are you hosting?

Hey there!! I am getting married at Beaches Turks and Caicos!! And we are not doing much at all besides OOT bags and showing our appreciation etc. WHat you really have to think is, it's not only your wedding, but it is a vacation for your guests and they dont want you to plan the entire trip for them. They want to do their own thing, spend time with friends and family and spend time with their own family. I think the wedding is a bonus. I wouldnt go crazy trying to plan things and then you dont want your guests to feel pressured to come along. Just my opinion, but I have also heard this from others. Plenty of stuff going on that they can join in on. Hope that helped!

I agree. I've read bridal magz, and they say you should Host atleast one thing. I believe you got yourself covered for that. We aren't even doing a private reception since it'll be no more then 15 people showing up. I am doing the oot bags and a favour at the sit down dinner.For me it's more the money I have to watch out, after all it's one of the reason we are doing a DW, it's cheaper, until you starting adding all of these things!

I work with a girl who has stayed at The Sands several times and LOVES it - as in it's her favorite place ever according to her, lol. She and her husband went down there several years ago, and just loved it SO much that they have went back at least once a year every year and they always stay at The Sands. Her pictures looked amazing - I'm sure your DW is going to me beautiful!!

    • 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!
