I love how you scheduled your cocktail "hours" so that you and your FI could join.  Did you still have a grand entrance where you were introduced as husband and wife at your reception or did you skip that part?   We are scheduled for pictures for an entire hour after the ceremony, and would miss the cocktail hour (which we would love to go to!) so I am looking for other options! 

 

You looked beautiful.  Loved your dress and your flowers!

Having a nice beach is probably the most important thing to me and I have heard a few people mention Sun Palace. I was interested in Beach Palace because I like the roof terrace but maybe now I will reconsider. I am obviously having trouble deciding but I read things about the weeds and beach at Moon Palace so now I don't know which resort to go with.

Hi there! Sorry for the delay in responding. I hadn't checked the forum in some time.  I'll be sure to check back more frequently!

 

LisaandJeff - we still had a "grand entrance".  Once the cocktail hours were over and people gathered to take their seats, the bridal party, parents and grandparents stayed back at the Terrace.  The DJ then announced family first, then bridal party (each couple did something funny/cute when they were announced ) and finally the traditional "now introducing for the first time as husband and wife....".  We went straight into a dance which got everyone on their feet and then sat down for speeches and a wedding slideshow.

 

Bride2B2012- i want to say MP was about a 10 minute cab ride from Sun Palace. The resort offers shuttles a few times a day to their affiliated Palace resorts ( i want to say every 2 hours or so) but we cabbed it for the TTD pictures.  The Sun Palace beach was incredible - white powder sand beach and turquoise waters.  The beach at MP was the only disappointment although I was prepared for that ahead of time and i frankly didn't have a lot of time to spend on the beach with all the wedding preparation I was focused on.  We still enjoyed our time on the beach - played beach volleyball and just laid out on the chairs a couple of times.  Our guests primarily stuck to the pool though.  The service was incredible whether at the beach or the pool.  The only caveat is, i didn't see many people actually in the water...The seaweed is noticable but it's combed a few times a day.

 

Burlia - the MP was the PERFECT spot for a wedding.  We just went back to a different resort on vacation last month and my family couldn't stop comparing our resort to MP saying it didn't even come close.  You have unlimited access to the other Palace resorts - you can plan a day trip to the Sun Palace or Beach Palace resorts to enjoy their beaches.  But MP puts on an amazing wedding and i can guarantee you, your guests wont lack for things to do, see, and eat.  We had all ages there and everyone found something to do.  Also, the roof top at the Carribeno restaurant had an amazing view - you can ask about using that space for the reception?

 

I hope that was helpful.

 

Please let me know if you have anymore questions!

      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!
