Hi ladies,

 

It is great to read and see all the OOT content ideas on this forum. I just wonder do you assemble the bags before at home and ship them to the resort or do you ship the supplies and assemble them there and give them out when?? please advise. I have no idea. I never even knew about OOT bags until I started surfing this site.

 

I appreciate your time in replying,

Jennifer

Yeah I remember when I just joined I was like "OOT bags?" what's that?

 

Our neighbours were saying to my fiancee the other day that we are going above and beyond what he thinks most destination brides do. I told my fiancee that he should see some of the talented girls on this forum! I can't believe all the hardwork making thoughtful gifts you girls do!

I didn't know about OOT bags before I came here either and I don't know what I would do without having them. We are bringing everything down with us and assembling them there. I found 2 small suitcases for $15 to bring everything we need with us because I figured it was cheaper than shipping it and this way I know it will get there.

Hey there - great question.

 

We brought everything down with us and assembled the bags there the day after we landed. We knew everyone would be sleeping late, so we got up uber early and ran around the resort and left a bag in front of each door (we got their room numbers from the front desk) so when they woke up, they'd find their bags.

 

Word of warning: We paid through the NOSE in baggage weight fees. We totally forgot about that and we were 20 kilos over in weight and for our airline we had to pay $10 per kilo we were over!! And it was all because of the OOT bag contents ... we actually had a bag and a 1/2 left empty when we were coming home ... just something you might want to take into consideration!

yes we had almost 2 suitcases full with just OOT stuff...we gave them to my BIL and his girlfriend since they only had 1 bag each and were allowed 2...so it worked out

    • 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!
