Thank you Allison! Prices went up slightly but not bad he quoted me $1000. Did you have the main photographer and as assistant? His website is mostly in spanish, Do they speak english well enough? cheesy.gif

His assistant speaks English well, he doesn't.  If you want a lot of posed photographs, he's probably not who you want. I wanted a lot of candid shots so it worked out well for me.  I just emailed him prior to with a list of the shots I wanted (getting in the dress, the kiss, family shots) and things I did not want (a pic of every groomsman and bridesmaid together, the groomsmen holding the bride sideways, everyone jumping on the beach, etc.).  The biggest disappointment for me, was that he didn't get the guys getting ready but that was not his fault. It was partially mine since we had a room so far away and partially the groom b/c he didn't wait for Valeria's assistant to pick them up as we discussed in the meeting.  mad.gif (it freaks you out a bit when your WC calls you in a panic b/c she can't find your groom, I think she thought she was breaking the news to me that my groom was ditching me, fortunately my Dad had seen them make their way to the chapel) But that is neither here nor there.

 

It was sort of a risk getting him as he had only done 1 wedding prior to mine. He has done several other wedding since and his work seems to be getting better each time.  I loved his work.  The only other thing is that I would have said fewer during the ceremony (it was a full catholic wedding so there are a lot of chapel shots) and more during the reception.

 

Let me know if you have any questions!

thanks ladies! :) That is what I figured but I just wanted to double check! I'm only about 1/5 of the way through your album Alison, but I like what I see so far! :)

We returned to Moon Palace for an early anniversary celebration. It was as wonderful and beautiful as when we got married.

We took some pics of the actual wedding site we got married at. For anyone who wishes to have a morning wedding at sunrise, i highly suggest it.

Its absolutely beautiful at dawn.

 

We returned and enjoyed many trips we missed out on during the wedding week.

      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!
