RE. OUTDOOR RECEPTIONS: has anyone had their private reception in an outdoor setting besides the two terraces? We are booking the paradise package ( have been booked for months) and were just told that there are two other weddings using the terraces so we have to have our reception in the banquet hall ( indoors) or a non private reception. We are pretty upset about this and feel we should have been told in advance when we booked. Anyway, we can't use the beach at night because its turtle season. We are looking for other areas of the resort to have an as private as possible outdoor reception dinner. Suggestions?

Litzy did my hair and makeup and it was fabulous! Everyone complimented how great it looked. I think the spa charges $100 for an updo for bridesmaids. 400

Hi Ladies! I am getting very excited planning my wedding at OCT!  I am hoping for some feedback on Hair and Makeup!  I have been looking through the thread and saw that 'Litzy' from the spa was good.  Has anyone had any issues with hair and makeup---I am very nervous about this?  Approximately what price are they charging for bridesmaids?  Has anyone used external vendors or went off the resort for hair and makeup?  I have received quotes from Hair Trio, and they are more money then my high end salon here in Calgary, Alberta----$185 USD for hair and makeup (no name brand makeup) for bride and $120 USD for bridesmaids!   Also we are hiring Sweet Fire Photography to do our wedding!  I know there is a way to avoid the $550 USD vendor fee+ $85/person day pass....but how do you go about avoiding at least part of these fees?  How did you go about booking the photographers for a night stay? Any advice is greatly appreciated!

I'm getting married in 7 weeks!!! Woo hoo! What recommendations would anyone have on who I should get to do my hair at the salon on grounds? Also I'm looking at my options on bouquets and my colors are dark purple and bright blue like seen on the ribbons around the chairs. Can we change the color of a rose bouquet to purples? Or is is only pink?

Congrats on your upcoming wedding, Erdocherty98!

 

My wedding is in 38 weeks, lol.  Where are you having your ceremony and reception?

 

I haven't been to the resort, but after reading all 2000+ reviews on this site, I've heard that Litzy is the girl to ask for at the hair salon!  I've also heard that there are more flower options once you get to the resort.. I wouldn't worry about that too much right now.  I'm sure your wedding planner will have some amazing purple flower options for you!

 

Can't wait to hear all about it.. don't forget to post pictures!

      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!
