-Welcome dinner $2000

-Flowers $650

-Photographer $1100

-Coordinator & misc decor $1330

-Wedding reception food/beverages $5587.50

Total anticipated = $13,371.56

 

OUCH...and that doesn't include the dress. With the dress $15,700.

Decor/music/coordinator,etc: $7,500 (last total my coordinator sent)

Food: $2100

Drinks: $4000

Bonfire: $500

Total: $14,100 (and I'm sure it will be more once we're done)

 

Travel: Add another $5500 - Flights + wedding hotel + honeymoon hotel... we did splurge on first class flights :-)

I don't even want to add the rings, OOT bags, wedding gown, etc...

 

At least it would be much more if we had a wedding in the U.S., so I have to remind myself of that!

 

I hate to say it... my mother was right. I told her 10k the most, and she laughed wacko.gif

Tammy, I hear ya! I have the same feeling... Oh, I forgot his attire, and we payed for half of all the groomsmen attire since my FI insisted on having matching EVERYTHING.

That is exactly how I feel also thinking about the budget: lalala.gif

I don't want to talk about it anymore! ha ha

Heck yeah, I think this is going to be so much more enjoyable for us. A reception at home would have been a buffet of carrot sticks and water because the wedding list from both sides was HUGE. And it still would have been more expensive!

      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!
