We have several options, but most people are doing Thursday-Monday (4N/5D) or Monday-Monday (7N/8D).

 

4 Nights/5 Days = $583 plus airfare (around $500)

7 Nights/8 Days = $984pp plus airfare (around $500)

 

Includes all-inclusive plus transfers.

We arranged for the below rates. The hotel is all-inclusive. It also has 2 sides: Divi and Tamerijn. Each side is technically is own resort, but guests at one have free range of both. Both participate in the all-inclusive concept. So the whole operation really functions like 1 huge resort.

 

Divi Aruba All-Inclusive: Gardenview
  • $275 per room per night - single adult occupancy
  • $350 per room per night - double adult occupancy
  • $510 per room per night - triple adult occupancy
  • $660 per room per night - quad adult occupancy
Divi Aruba All-Inclusive: Beachside
  • $285 per room per night - single adult occupancy
  • $370 per room per night - double adult occupancy
  • $540 per room per night - triple adult occupancy
  • $700 per room per night - quad adult occupancy
Divi Aruba All-Inclusive: Oceanview
  • $295 per room per night - single adult occupancy
  • $380 per room per night - double adult occupancy
  • $570 per room per night - triple adult occupancy
  • $740 per room per night - quad adult occupancy
Tamerijn Aruba All-inclusive: Deluxe Oceanfront
  • $255 per room per night - single adult occupancy
  • $310 per room per night - double adult occupancy
  • $450 per room per night - triple adult occupancy
  • $580 per room per night - quad adult occupancy

Our guests are paying $1800 for one week all inclusive with everything included.  We originally wanted to find someone a little bit cheaper, but just couldn't find a resort we liked with a lower price.  I haven't heard a single thing from our guests about the price being to high.

Given most of our guest are young people, we are doing this wedding purely for ourselves as our parents are not attending. We will have AHR though. I eventually decided on Gran Caribe Real because of rate and location.

 

Our group rate was only $1105 per person including flight, 6 night 7 days all inclusive, transfer and all tax. This is traveling from Vancouver to Cancun.

I agree that no one complained to us about the cost. (Who know what people may have said behind our backs!) But our rates were per night, so guests were able to make the trip as long or short as their budget allowed.

ours are paying $2K/couple for a long weekend (3 nights, 4 days), including most airfare (around $450pp) and transfers ($100/couple) to the Royal Playa del Carmen resort in Playa del Carmen, Mexico.

 

I think we could have found resorts that cost less, but $1,500 vs $2,000/couple wouldn't have made much of a difference. either people have planned and budgeted for a vacation or they haven't. and unless you drive somewhere and stay with family, I think most vacations cost around $2K once you factor in the rental car, meals, drinks, etc etc etc.

Thats a really nice option.  I think we had had that choice we might have had more people come, but oh well, Im happy with the group that will be coming!

I think one of the great things about DWs is that the people who come really want to be there (as opposed to traditional weddings, where some people may grumble through the day because they feel obligated). So regardless of the cost and the people who decide the spend that amount, everyone will most likely be super excited to be there, making the day that much better.

    • 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!
