Thank your that info. I too received that same email. I was a little bummed being that I heard so much about Evangelina. I feel a little relieved that you got a chance to meet her.

We're having our reception on the pool deck - the wooden area by the infinity pool. You can also have your reception on the pool terrace, in one of the restaurants, or the beach.

 

If you google Dreams Riviera Cancun Wedding Photos alot of different slideshows will come up and you can see the different options :) That's how I figured out what I wanted!

 

 

 

Thanks Savs1027 for the information. I will take a look at google. We will be staying until the 12th of December. :-)

Just having  your own bar was worth it to me. 

 

My family booked regular ocean view room and ended up with a great view and we snuck them into preferred club so they could drink there with us. 

 

I wont be doing a full review since I had such a small wedding and only had the ceremony to worry about but Ill answer any questions and I will post my slideshow.

 

 

 

 

 

Hi Amanda,

How much extra is it to book the preferred club??

Amanda,

You look stunning! I love your colors! Did you bring your own sand and sand ceremony stuff or did that come with your package? Also, did you use the salon at the resort to get your hair done?

Thank you so much. I brought my own stuff for sand ceremony. The blue sand is from Michaels, the white sand from the beach and I found the little bottles with corks at Hobby Lobby. They were much smaller and lighter than the kits I saw so it was better for packing. I did my own hair and makeup, (my sister did the braid).

 

For the Preferred Club Im not sure how much extra, we booked through CheapCaribbean, maybe $150 for the week??

Amanda,

 

Your wedding was beautiful! I LOVED your hair!!! It is so nice to see someone who had a small, intimate wedding... My fiancee and I are only having 6 guests. I would love to see pictures from your reception. If you don't mind me asking, do you feel that the overall cost of the wedding was fairly low? I'm just wondering because I still have not received an estimate of the total cost of our wedding.

 

 Congratulations on your marriage! I wish you and your husband a lifetime of happiness :)

Tiny, We did the free wedding by staying 7 nights in the Preferred Club Ocean View so it made the whole trip even better. I think the pictures cost as much as the wedding would have and thats all we paid for. We just went to dinner right at 6 as a group and had Yamina bring the cake there so we didnt have to pay extra. My sister braided my hair and I did the rest. 

 

 

Thank you for the kind words.

      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!
