Yeah!! That is great to hear :) I am very happy that your day went off so well...

 

"The Flamingo restaurant is good but slow. We had a sit down dinner for 34 people and it took a long time for them to bring out food."

 

Did you have the 7pm food service? Did you stay at the restaurant for long? Is there room for any dancing? We are bringing our own sound system and wanted to do the "reception" there after dinner as Erika said we could stay late.

 

"As far as the arch being white - you won't notice it in pictures. My dress was ivory and you can't tell. We did white bows on the chairs and it came out fine. By the time they put the arch up, you will be getting ready and you won't have time to do it unless you have a team of people who aren't getting ready themselves and are willing to do it for you."

 

I have ordered some fake flowers that are amazing to bring. With 39 guests, there better be someone will to help with me arch!! lol We are also bringing Tool for the chairs as my "colour" is royal blue.

 

I would love to see your pictures, if you want you can send them to me directly at [email protected]

 

What time did you do your wedding? What was the weather like?

 

Thank you for your help!

As far as the Flamingo - We had dinner reservations at 6:45. We did not get done with dinner and toasts until 9pm. Keep in mind the service was slow - even for Mexico. As for dancing, there are other people eating there and at the time our only option for dancing was to rent out the pool bar. I guess they could set it up for dancing, depending where you had your meal at. We had ours upstairs on one end of the restaurant. With our 30 people, it may have been a tight squeeze. You can definitely ask Erika.

 

I would just give Erika detailed instructions on how you want your arch flowers and would feel confident that they will get it done for you. Also with the chair bows as well. Our wedding was scheduled for 5pm and we didn't start until 5:30. I was 5 minutes late and the guys didn't have their boutoneires either. In the end it all worked out perfectly!

 

The weather was great! It was probably upper 70's low 80's at the time of the wedding. It was a perfect day!

      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!
