FI and I are just sooooo super excited as we've just purchased our first home!!!!!!! smile123.gif This all happened very fast for us. We weren't really expecting to find a house right away, it just happened to fall on our laps, so we couldn't resist. So in the next 3 and 1/2 months, we have to pack, move, finish planning the wedding, there's hunting for the men (in oct & nov), thanksgiving, christmas, new years and then the wedding (we leave on Jan 2)! I think I'll go insane but it'll be so much fun!!!!! cheesy.gif

 

We take possession on October 1st and have the whole month to move in as we don't have to leave our apartment until October 31st. This is such an exciting time for the both of us. There are some things that we want to do in the home before actually moving in. We want to remove some carpets as there is hardwood floors underneath. Painting will also be done as it's a lot easier to do with nothing in the rooms.

 

As a lot of you know, my aunt is making my wedding dress and I started a thread to show the progress of that. Well, I thought that I would do the same thing here. Show our progress in the house, before and after pics. Kinda like a home renovating/decorating thread! I thought it would be fun to share ideas.

 

I don't have any pics with me as I'm at work, but I promise to post some very soon. We plan on starting reno's next weekend. (YIKES!!!) lol

 

I just wanted to share my good news...I'm so happy right now! woot.gif

CONGRATS!!! I remember how excited we were to finally own a little piece of land we could call our own; I'm excited for you. I look forward to seeing your pics & your progress!!!

 

Good luck with the ripping up carpet & possibly redoing the hardwoods; I feel your pain on that one, as we have been doing that for what seems like eternity now (really only been about a week, but still :)

 

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!smile29.gif

    • 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!
