My fiance and I booked Sandals Whitehouse for 7/31/10, but now we're waffling and thinking of something totally different like Oahu! Fortunately, we only have the resort reserved and it's 100% refundable at this point. We just don't know how impacted Jamaica will be by the Haiti earthquake releif efforts; hurricanes in July/August; etc. Also, I saw some Youtube postings of couples on honeymoons and someone's home video of her wedding. Seriously as she walked down the isle there was a young couple on lawn chairs holding up drinks! Really?!

Congrats and welcome!

 

Not to be a downer, but the situation in Hawaii won't be much better as far as people-watching goes. Public beaches mean even MORE people, so I think if you're planning on having a beach destination wedding, you're going to run into this at some point.

 

That said, I totally approve of Oahu! *wink, wink*

Thanks you guys. Annabanana, I think you're right that even in Hawaii we will have the crowds to deal with. I keep thinking our indecision is really just a matter of "the grass always looks greener on the other side" and every resort looks super on their website and not-so-super in home videos...especially, when the videos are homemade.

hey

 

welcome to the site :) find out as much information as you can about your resort you've booked and how affected it's likely to be - as it's fully refundable atm, I'd act sooner rather than later - if you decide to stick with it, chances are, you can always rebook it!

 

congrats on your upcoming wedding and HAPPY PLANNING!!

      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!
