Our engagement story...


Recommended Posts

Luis and I had decided that since it was our first Christmas in OUR first place together we wanted to host Christmas Eve dinner and have both our families under our roof. It was better than having to choose between both families or shuttle between the two. We cooked up a storm...cochinita pibil, chancho asado, beef ribs, frijoles puercos, tamales mexicanos...and everyone had a grand 'ole time. My parents spent the night at our place since they live over 40 minutes away and we didn't think it was a good idea for them to drive home so late. We all woke up Christmas morning to open gifts. We opened everything addressed to us under the tree and when we were almost finished, Luis said he had one more gift. He grabbed some wrapping paper that someone had torn off one of their gifts and quickly disappeared. He came back with something wrapped several times with the wrapping paper. I was sitting on the ground on my knees, he was standing. It was the sweetest proposal ever. He proposed to me and promised my parents to try his best to be the best man he could be for me. By the end of it, I had tears streaming down both cheeks!

    • 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!
