my FI are seriously considering a DW mainly becuse it will cost us at less half of what it would in NYC. My one worry is that we want to invite our families to the DW but know that everyone will not be able to come. Would it be weird if we invited our families to the DW like it was a wedding here and then invite all of them again to the AHR?

 

The AHR will not be like a regular wedding, just a nice party to celebrate our wedding but how soon after should we have it? Would 8 - 12 weeks after we come home be too long afterwards or should it be closer to 6 weeks after?

 

Thanks.

When are you getting married?

 

Our DW is in Nov, so we are having our AHR in March when the weather will be a bit better (we are up in Alberta, so weather can be bad). As for who to invite, we are inviting those who make it to the DW as well. We didn't want to leave them out, and our AHR will be the typical dance party which we aren't doing at our DW. We will also have a slideshow and show the wedding video at the AHR, so those who were there, would probably like to see that.

We are doing exactly that. We sent invitations to everyone for the DW and we are planning on sending out invitations closer time to everyone again for the AHR. We knew not everyone could make it but to avoid hurting any feelings we sent them to everyone. We didn't want anyone to think we didn't invite them because they couldn't afford it.

im planning on doin the same thing. my DW will probably be very small because I just want the people we are closest to to be there...but when we get home I want to go to a nice restaurant and take everyone out...some people we want to invite to the DW but know they either cant fly or just cant afford the trip :o(....so this is a great way for them to still be a part of the celebrations i think :o)

      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!
