Coyaba Resort -Mobay Brides post here!


Recommended Posts

Dana-

 

Included in the wedding package is your marriage license, which will be signed during the ceremony and valid. You do not need to get re-married in the US when you get back. I am pretty sure Coyaba will FedEx 2 copies of your license to you once it is ready.

 

Okay ladies, sorry for taking so long to post. I was lazy and had to look up how to do it :)

 

So, I hope this works & here they are!

The lawn is where the ceremony takes place (unless you've requested to do it on the beach). The view looking out over the water is amazing, no?? Also included one of the pool area, beach and of one of the buildings. The grounds are just amazing...you will all love it! I can't wait to go back (for more reasons than one!).

Hi Dana! I know your post was old but I just reread it and had a question about Sandals. Which property did you visit that you didn't like? We just booked our HM at Sandals Whitehouse after our Coyaba Wedding and I wanted to make sure that wasn't it!!

 

Kristin your pictures are great! I think they call the East Lawn the Wedding Lawn. The only other lawn is actually Joanne and Kevin's backyard (they live next door) and they use that to set up the tent if you have to rent one.

Hey - we stayed at the Sandals Royal Caribbean in Montego Bay this past May. We also visited the Sandals Negril and received the same feeling. It's really hit or miss. You will have some exceptional people who work there who treat you good but then some of them of noticably miserable. But, it's your honeymoon - I'm sure you will have a great time.

Ladies,

I just got back from getting married at Coyaba on the 8th. Oh, ladies are you in for a TREAT! I will write a full blown review later today or tomorrow, but words cannot describe how wonderful the entire experience was... the staff, the food, the attention to detail, the doting on the bride and groom... unbelievable. We had 61 guests and they all said that it was the best wedding the had ever been to (and this was with Hurricane Paloma weather too boot! (scattered rain showers, very high tide, the wedding lawn was soaked!)... thankfully it didn't rain during the ceremony or reception!

 

We also did a few things and they were well worth the splurges...

1) pepper lights, paper lanters, luminaries at the rehershal dinner (Ask Joanne)

2) coconut bar (for the experience alone!)

3) Bonfire with smores (HUGE success!... though we ran out of chocolate very quickly)

4) Reggae band... yes, they are very expensive but they sound amazing and really make it a Jamaican experience. No one could stop talking about them

5) Going with the tent rental and using the east lawn for the reception. I swear ladies, if you have enough or close to enough people this is worth the cost. It is like a movie set... the have hanging candles in the trees, tiki torches (and more luminaries... which I brought down the bags for) the tent is secluded, and the way its lit-up at night just takes you to another place... looking back, it was sooo amazing.

I will try to load up my photos asap... and give an even more indepth review of Coyaba, but until then KNOW it is going to be a very special occasion.

 

OH and one last thing, if you haven't, your group MUST and I mean MUST go on the All Inclusive plan... I realize its expensive, but breakfast at the hotel starts at 14 dollars (and thats contentinal breakfast). Lunch is 15-28 per person, and dinner is 28-38 per person. This isn't even including drinks (which they have an amazing array of top shelf liquors available). And, again the food is spectacular.

 

Ok, more soon, but again, get excited ladies, you're in for the most amazing weekend for you and your guests!

OMG...First off CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Your post just gave me chills. Sounds like everything work out wonderful for you. Every suggestion you made: The tent, the all inclusive and the reggae band was exactly my plan - so you just reassured me BIG time. We have 8 months to go...but feels like forever! I hope it comes quick. Please email your pictures whenever you come down of your cloud :-) [email protected]

 

Again, much happiness and love!!

Are you glad it's over?

    • 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!
