Its frustrating because if I wait until next year to get prices, then some family members may think its too expensive and may not want to come and in that case I would plan a wedding here and I would be out of luck in booking anything until the following year because it would be too late by then.

So thats my dilemma. Does anyone know of any nice hotels that are reasonably priced??
Lisa,
First off - WELCOME! YAY a new Canadian Bride!!!!!

Secondly, yeh - I bet it is too early for pricing. I do have some words of wisdom - because I was an early bird too - look at the pricing for November of this year - it should be a pretty good indicator of projecting the budget for the wedding. In my case it definately was.

Thirdly, if a DW is your dream - DO IT - don't base your decision on your family - tell them what YOU and FI are doing and what you both want. Those that come, come... those that don't, don't - you'll stress yourself out trying to make everyone happy - believe me.

And Lastly - be sure you have a great travel agent - planning will be all the more smooth!

Welcome Welcome - and feel free to pick our brains on any subject~!!

PS> CUBA is also an awesome destination!

Welcome to the forum! I am going to be a Dominican bride this Nov an I can tell you that waiting until about March to book will save you a load of $$. If you book before that the price is very high. What I did was looked at the prices for Nov last year, and then I sent out STD's that said a generalized price we were looking for in a resort and told everyone to start saving. If they are going to come, they will. You will find that a bunch of people that say they will be there...won't be! This is almost standard. I don't know if there are many people on here that had everyone show up that said they would. I am getting married at the Grand Palladium, and if that resort intrests you, feel free to contact me with any questions about the resort or the wedding details.

      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!
