Recommended Posts

WOW thank you for all the feedback! It really helped. smile35.gif

 

Last night I talked it over with my mom and FMIL and we are going to have it! Yay! They are both paying for it woot2.gif (So how can we refuse?) Its going to my at my in laws house, a backyard luau/bbq! We have a lot of family and friends who are not attending the wedding that we want to share with. I am very happy with our decision!

 

As for the bridal shower, I was only going to have my sister invite those going to the wedding (didnâ€t really know the etiquette on this) but now that we are having the AHR she is going to invite everyone she would with a traditional wedding (if that makes sense). She didnâ€t send out invite yet but she is going to say something along the lines of AHR to follow...

well, it looks like i'm not the norm on this forum! We're absolutely having a reception at home. we have approx. 40-50 people going to jamaica, then at a home party we're having 250-350 (still have a few months to plan that) I will admit i've had to give and take, due to budget restrictions, mainly no live band in jamaica just steal drums for the walk down the aisle and a dj for the rest of the night. But we are planning on having a live band at home since more people will get the satisfaction from it.

 

We're getting married at Moon Dance and then having AHR at my parents house. The AHR will have a cigar roller, food, booze, etc. Ya know just me and 200 of my parents closest friends, hell they're paying for it!!!!

    • 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!
