Just got back on Thursday from my wedding at Sandos, WOW! The resort is beautiful! Lupita was AWESOME and took care of everything once we arrived!

 

All of our guests (there was 23 of us) stayed in the Haciendas (the premiere haciendas near the meeting point. No complaints, except the pillows and beds were awful! I recommend to anyone to at least bring your own pillow. Otherwise each Hacienda had their own private pool which was a BLAST. A couple nights we all drank by the pool and had a great time!

 

Wedding was at 5:30 on the beach. We started pictures around 2-2:30. I hired Doranna to do hair and makeup, she does freelance work and lives in Playa, and she did a FANTASTIC job! Recommend her to anyone, she was perfect!! Definately recommend a wedding at a later time as it was way too hot around lunch time. After the wedding we took group photos and headed over to the italian restaurant as its more private. Food was good and cake was OK.

 

Overall, loved the resort. Entertainment is wonderful! The decor is beautiful, and the ocean is breathtaking! If you have any questions feel free to ask!

 

Here are a few pics from our special day..

Hair and Makeup??????

 

 

Hi ladies,

I'm getting married June 29th at Sandos and I'm realizing I should have booked hair and makeup already! I've read on here that hair and makeup at the resort isn't great. Can anyone make a recommendation?!?! HELP! :)

We didn't have our reception there, but a bunch of us went and had dinner at Alux Cave one evening. We found the food to be quite overpriced, but overall it was a really cool experience, and we really enjoyed the tour of the cave.

 

There was a wedding reception happening while we were there and it looked pretty cool. My only concern would he the heat and humidity in the cave! It was VERY warm and very humid so I wouldn't imagine that you would want to dance in there...would likely be a very sweaty situation!

Hi! Can't wait to hear about your wedding. I'm wondering, with 70 guests did you do a seating chart for the dinner?? I have about 90.

    • 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!
