First off...Congratulations! I completely understand where you are coming from. I am also recently engaged and I'm having the hardest time settling on a date as I have a few teachers in the fam that will be coming and they cannot take time off during the school year.

 

I dont plan on paying for any of the accomodations for my guests either, only the wedding festivities, etc. I hope they dont think that I will be :)

 

I literally have spent the last week on this site reading over the # of forums and there is some great info!!

 

I dont have any advice for you just yet but I'm interested in all the same questions you have! Unfortunately my FI has no travelling experience what so ever, the farthest he has been is to the U.S. so this will be an adventure!

 

I also dont know how many guests to expect but I can anticipate that only half of who "say" they will be there will actually come because of the $$!. I am quoting 30 to 50.

 

I do suggest searching in the forums under the resorts your most interested in, I can almost gaurantee there will be some great advice and $ discussed!

First off...Welcome to the forum. It is so hard to determine how many guest you really are going to have. We had 50 ppl say "oh yeh definetly". We ended up with 26 ppl. It was perfect. I got married at the Sante Fe and I think with everything it cost no more than $6000 and that included our trip. I rented the chuppha for the ceremony and bought flower from an outside source. Got my hair done by Suzanne Morell. I was very happy with everything. Happy Planning

Welcome to the forum!

 

The most beautiful beaches in Mexico are Cabo and the Cancun area. But they are also the priciest. One of the more reasonable options in Mexico is the Puerto Vallarta area. There are nice hotels ranging from five stars to small fine boutique hotels that can provide just enough rooms for your guests.

 

Good luck with your planning and welcome again!

      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!
