@@lalalaken, Hi, that was an awesome video and photos, thank you for sharing! I too am thinking of having our wedding at EPM this year but in Nov. Just curious, did you have to pay that $500 fee to use an outside vendor? Oh, and your hair came out beautiful, was that your doing or did a hair stylist from EPM style it for you?

Thank you Ladies so much, I really appreciate the info and will look into it all. @@TAkathy, what month was your sister's wedding? Oh, and we won't have to worry about guests, we're eloping . We're having a small church wedding for family and friends when we return though. I'm really excited! We're thinking Nov. but I am a little worried about weather for that time of year, thinking maybe we should push it back to early next year 2016.

Hi Brides! I am really excited about this site, planning/decision making has been terribly stressful for me, I swear it invades my dreams every single night! My fiancé and I were undecided between Costa Rica and Cabo, but I really fell in love with Nayara Hotel Spa & Garden in Costa Rica. Has anyone been here? Or Costa Rica in general? Any insight, tips, and/or advice would greatly be appreciated!

Hi! I was there last Nov. 2014. I fell in love with the resort and that's actually where he proposed to me. I would recommend coordinating with Raquel, she is the one my fiancé was in close contact with 6 months prior to the proposal and she did an outstanding job coordinating all the events that led to the proposal. I did consider going back to get married there but decided it against it. Even though I fell in love with all the staff we got to know during our stay (service is fantastic) and the beautiful resort, I was put off by the wedding I saw take place while we were there. I don't want to discourage you, but the beach was crowded and the bride that came out walked right through with her dad on her arm while all these strangers in bathing suits sat and watched on the beach chairs. We were actually eating lunch at some tables they have on the side and I actually felt like we were intruding. There HAS to be other options, maybe it was the time of day she chose or something- but I myself would want something more intimate and private. I never did ask Raquel what other options there were, I know when I got back home and started looking into it I saw a gazebo in the wedding photos, that's something I didn't notice before. What I saw could've been the bride's preference, but I just thought you should keep that in mind.
