AMAZING PICS! you looked so beautiful. J'adore!!! Je viens de Montreal originalement :) de l'ile Bizard. J'habite a Ottawa Maintenant!

 

where did you get your cake topper? And was your reception dress a designer dress??? I'm in love with it and would love a dress like that!

Van - I think it depends also on where you are coming from. From the US, there are some dirt cheap flights to Mexico. The best I heard of from my guests was my MOH and her husband paid $195 each for their tickets on Air Tran. I also flew there on JetBlue 6 months before the wedding for $250. For the wedding, I used United miles and flew business class on them! So if coming from the US, I personally think people can get the best deals by booking everything on their own. Also agents always charge a fee, as that's how they make money:)  I did negotiate hotel rates though (through the hotel), and my resort (Ceiba del Mar) set up a private link for our party. I posted the link on our website and people booked through that to get our rates.

All the stories that everyone shared are all truly amazing. My fiance and I have decided that we will be having a destination wedding in Mexico, the hardest part at this moment is to choose a resort.

We decided for April 2012, I feel like there won't be enough time to plan anything.

 

Did everyone here booked through an agent? Should we let our guests choose who to book with?

 

Hope to hear from someone soon,

Van

Great pictures Bonnie!! Just a quick question - I noticed you are wearing your rings on your middle finger in a lot of pics. Why is this? Is it a cultural thing? I have a Russian friend and she and her husband wear their rings on their index finger, but I've never seen the middle so I was just curious:)

Janet,

 

LOL, so you were Pauline Marois's neighbor!  I live in D-D-O, 10 min from Ile-Bizard!

I got the custom made cake topper from Ebay, and the reception dress is also custom made by a chinese dressmaker.  All details on vendors are in my planning journal thread.

Mexbride,

 

Nothing cultural, I put the rings on my middle finger because they were a bit loose (kept turning on the side) and I forgot to bring my plastic ring sizers with me cheesy.gif

Carrie,

 

Sascha was AMAZING! and very easy going (so I could be a bubbly happy bride on my day).  My hubby and his boys are super happy with their pics so far, and I got tons of compliments too!! I can't wait to see the rest of the pics.

I wrote a review on him on the vendors' review section.

      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!
