Congratulations!!! Everything looks absolutely fantastic! Do you have a time-line for the ceremony day that you would be willing to share? We will be getting married within a few days of you (but next year) and I'm trying to figure out what a good time-line would be from getting ready to the ceremony to dinner/dancing, etc.

 

Also, did you get your cake through the resort or did you have an outside vendor?

Thanks Samantha!

 

I'm a bit of a ridiculous Excel spreadsheet-maker so I definitely have time-lines.  I'm attaching the one for the day of the wedding (getting ready, pictures, etc) but feel free to PM your email address to me and I can send you more of my stuff.  Our ceremony started at 5pm and we did a 'first look' before the ceremony.  It was super hot for pre-ceremony pics but starting at 5pm worked nicely because we got the pretty sunset light during dinner.  Also, it wasn't too hot at all for the ceremony or dinner.  We had a great breeze and everyone said that they felt really comfortable.

 

The GREAT thing about booking DJ Doremixx is that he provides you with a very detailed spreadsheet for the reception time-line.  We were able to put our song choices for the special dances on there and he ran the reception schedule to a tee!  I emailed him my completed time-line the week before we got to Mexico and then we went through it again when we met the week before the wedding.  For an overly-organized type like me, it was great to have that reassurance!

 

The resort did the cake.  I decided that it was best to have them keep it simple (less chance for disaster) and then we gave them the purple ribbon and cake toppers.  Our florist brought the fresh flowers (free of charge!) to complete the cake.  It turned out better than I anticipated.

We stayed in Mexico for a total of 12 days.  We arrived to HTR on the Monday before our Saturday wedding.  This was great b/c it gave us time to meet with our vendors and finish up last-minute details before guests arrived.  I think that a lot of our guests were surprised to arrive on Wed and find me essentially stress-free. 

 

We left HTR on Monday and spent 5-nights at La Tortuga Hotel in downtown Playa del Carmen.  I HIGHLY recommend it if you are looking for a change from the all-inclusive.  It was really fun to be able to wander around the town, try different restaurants and do a few excursions.  The inside of the hotel is very calm and serene so it felt like our private little escape...just what we needed after 4+ days of being the center of attention!

Thank you for all your great info!

      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!
