that would have been super tragic.

I've actually seen a wedding invitation written in Korean - it was by Designer's Fine Press - but I believe the couple had a family member write it out and then designer's fine press was able to copy it...you could call a few stationary stores nearby and see if they have any way of helping you out...I think that would be really sweet if you find a way to make it work!

No way, are you serious?? I didn't know that. We definitely wanted a sit-down dinner and when we gave our initial numbers to Ana she never indicated that if we had more than 40, we would have to do buffet instead :-s Hope thats not the case.

Off to spend a couple more hours looking at decorations... ha ha!
Boo is this the one you went with instead

3-Piece Miniature Wedding Sand Ceremony Vase Set

And they have a stopper for the top of them after you pour the sand in? Does the picture frame have a stopper thing too?

Never heard of the nautilus shell's for the parents. How does that work out?

You are doing such a good job of planning everything your wedding is going to amazing. I hope you FI knows how hard you are working on it.

I am ready for this wedding and searching for decorations and everything wedding related to be over!! lol

    • 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!
