These look pretty good! My wedding is at the GPR in November and we opted to upgrade to a private reception on the beach. I haven't gotten around to getting menu options from the WC yet. When is your wedding and which WC are you dealing with?

We did a site visit and food tasting at The Royal PDC.  We chose:

 

salad - spring salad with goat cheese and almond oil (the caribbean salad with shrimp was also good)

soup - princess cream with asparagus and mint (I think the oyster soup was good too - can't really remember)

main course - giving guests a choice of the beef or the chicken (these were a little dry, but thought most people would prefer these more than the lamb and fish, especially since the chicken comes with fish)

dessert - tres leches cake (not on the menu, but the chef made it for us as an extra option - so good!) - the cheesecake was really good too.

 

Hope this helps!

Well be getting married at GPR on December 5th.  What day are you getting married?  Did you go down for a site visit, and if so how was it?  We went with the International Buffet 2, looked like a great variety and we really didnt want to be stuck picking one meal for every guest.  I hope that the food is satisfactory

      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!
