O my goodness- I just went back through the posts that I had missed over the last two weeks while I've been MIA and can't believe there has been so much drama!

Katie- did you get the dinner menu figured out? That is the first I have heard that our guests can't order off the menu! Also which dinner option did you decide to go with (Im sure I overlooked that somewhere) Probably by the time you get to read this you will already have had the most fabulous wedding ever :) !! Can't wait to hear all about it when you get back!

 

Nicola- your website looks great!

Hey ladies!

Nicola, love love love the website!

I have one through destination weddings.com but it's not nearly as nice!

 

Okay... After reading all the drama with Ael and all the nickel and diming... I'm considering a huge change. I still want my ceremony at the Riu, but I am considering moving my reception off the resort. Anyone hear of any nice beachfront restaurants or have pics?

I have seen posts about the Kool Beach Club with pics and it looks AMAZING!

 

I figure with all the extras I want (I.e $1700 for private room, $25/person for sit down service and $9/person open bar) and extra headaches (not getting to pick my reception time, that store bought looking cake) I might as well put it into a different place that gives more option!

 

Would love to hear any feedback!

 

And Katie can't wait to hear about your day!

Ciao!

Question for the bride who have already had their wedding. Can you share your thoughts on the food?? And the resturants?? Also were the reservations a total pain? Did you end up eatting meals with your guests? Or did people just do their own thing? I don't want to eat with like 10+ people every night, so do we just let everyone make their own plans??

Hey guys! We are having our wedding reception at KOOL on May 28, 2011. You can have the ceremony there as well if you want - it has to be on the beach. We are probably the only ones who are going to Mexico and don't want to get married directly on the sand! I took at look at it when we were down week before last and we even got to "spy" from the beach on a reception that was taking place.

If you have any questions just let me know and I'll try to answer. I'm working on uploading some pics of KOOL (as well as Wicky's) as soon as I can find the proper cord.

Chloe- I was wonder how they set your tables up for dinner... I think you had around 25-30 guests... I will be having the same amount and am not sure what to do for table centerpieces/decorations, have no clue how they set it up: one big talble or a couple small ones. It would be great to here how you did it and if you had options! Thanks so much for all your input. Your pictures are amazing!

    • 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!
