Grand Sunset Princess Resort


Recommended Posts

For whoever has gotten married here - how big is the Gazebo?  Reason I ask is so far I have 7 groomsmen and the bride has 5 bridesmaids (thinking of adding another) and we're just concerned whether we will all fit while standing up there.  What do you guys think?

 

Also, does the audience sit inside the Gazebo or outside? 

 

Thanks!

There are two sections so the gazebo one for the guests and one for the wedding party and bride and groom

 

Judging from the pics in the links above the most I saw was 6 BMs and 5 GMs in tha gazebo.  But it looks as if it woked out fine. I am not sure how many guests can fit in the gazebo though.

Yes, the gazebo is two layers.  How many guests will you have?  That will determine if you'll all fit.

The bridesmaids/groomsmen shouldn't be a problem, as they'll stand in the upper gazebo along with you and your bride.

However, just as an FYI, standing INSIDE of the gazebo you won't get the beautiful blue sea behind you in your  photos.  Del Sol did an amazing post on this forum to help brides and grooms understand the technical side of photographing in gazebos.

It's for a different resort, however the same logic applies.

Will have about 20 guests that will be seated (not including the bridesmaids/groomsmen who are standing).

Hi Lauren! I am getting married April 8, 2011 so we will definately overlap! Patricia sent me some of the pics the resort photographer did and I didnt think they were good enough so I am going with "playaweddings".  Also I think we are going to go with the Beach reception as well but are also concerned about cost as we have about 70guests.  I'd love to hear more about your planning!

my email is [email protected] for anyone who can send me some info!

    • 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!
