Hi all!

 

i got married there on June 25th and I just wanted to say if you're stressing about anything, stop right now. Confirm the location that you want, count and food, and the rest will be just fine. I am super high maintenance and when I met with my on site WC Diana, she had everything taken care of I was blown away. We forget they do this twice a day every day! I had DJ Doremixx as well and he was AMAZING. I gave him a list of all the songs i wanted played and it was up to him in what order and what not. He rocked it! No one set down the entire time. Also, the turtle nesting.... get over it. When you're there and you witness one give birth you won't care. It's good that the hotel care for the nature. We should appreciate that. Have the beach wedding and cocktail on the beach, and then move to the ballroom...your guests will appreciate the break from the sand and air conditioning.

 

Few tips:

 

1) There are two beach locations. One is right in front of Pelicanos, the other is to the right of the Royal Gazebo, not Gran Caribe. If you want privacy and no beach chairs, choose the beach location by the Gazebo. It is soooo much better!

2) If you're having a small wedding, there is a room on the 2nd floor that is beautiful and it can be used for a small reception. It has a deck too. Ask you WC about it if you're not feeling the ballrooms.

3) Use the hotel's florist, they did a fantastic job. I had peonies and 12 bridesmaid roses bouquets and they were stunning. No need to go with outside vendor.

4) I used Fernando for my makeup and he was amazing. The best make up and hair I've ever had done.

5) I used Sascha Gluck as my photographer. He was worth the outside vendor fee. The guy is beyond cool and awesome and creative. Hire him, you won't regret it!

 

That's it. The food, the staff, the WC, everything was amazing. So stop stressing and enjoy the thought that you'll be getting married in Mexico. I wish someone told me that.

 

Also, we had a full on storm on our wedding day. Lighting, floods, all of it. So I didn't get my beach wedding. But the hotel still came thru and created this beautiful wedding ceremony in front of the ballrooms. It was beautiful and I'm so thankful I picked the Royal who had everything worked out for emergencies like that.

 

Happy wedding to you all!

    • 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!
