Scubadiva's Planning Thread


Recommended Posts

Hollys (Scubadiva) Planning thread

AHHHHHHHHHHHH. Ok here we go. I was not going to do one since my wedding was changed from St. Thomas to back home in MN. However some ladies HINT SB LADIES said I still should do one.

 

I want to start off staying thank you to Tammy and all the mods for this wonderful forum. I found out about this forum from my FMIL and I have been addicted to it ever since. I have received so many ideas from this thread and I know I could of not had the wedding A and I wanted with out ALL of you!

 

From the start…..

 

A and I met on craigslist back in December of 2007. Yes I know CL of ALL places. A friend told me about it and I thought I would give it a shot. Well I guess it worked since we are getting married, LOL.

 

Anyways. A and I moved pretty fast. We met in December 2007 were “official†Febuary 16th 2009 and I moved in April 2009. Like any realtionship we had our ups and downs. I knew he was a keeper when he treated my daughter Annabelle just like his own. He not only opened up his home to me but my daughter from my first marriage.

 

The engagment.

 

A tried to plan a vacation behind my back however he cant keep anything a secret from me!!!! He bought us tickets for a 10day Southern Carribean Cruise Febuary 2009  I have never been on a cruise before and I was sooooooo nervous. A had me become a certified scuba diver so we can dive the ocean together which was the best decision ever!!!

    • 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!
    • 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!
