Hey everyone,

 

I just decided this week that I'd had enough of the planning involved in an at home wedding. We are going to do a destination wedding instead!

 

I'm aware that there is still some planning to do, but I LOVE travelling and cant wait to pick a resort and start planning for this!

 

My name is Amanda and I havent decided where to go just yet, but know I want my wedding to occur in early 2011.

 

Any suggestions would be wonderful!

Hello Amanda, Welcome to the forum, there are tons of great information about different resorts, We are getting married in Turks and Caicos on July 14th, 2010. Will keep you posted on the resort as planning is in the process.

 

 

Cheers - Michelle

Luckily your from Ottawa so your flights will be direct no matter where you choose to go in the Caribbean. We chose Cancun because of the direct flights and the area of the Mayan Riviera has so much to do outside the resorts for our adventurous guests. From there we just picked a few resorts that had features we needed(disco, 5 star food, located on the beach) and ones that had WCs that came highly recommended, since they are the one person you deal with until you actually get to your resort. The Karisma Resorts have US based WCs which helps with the language barrier!

Good luck and pick more than one since price and other factors can knock out a resort and you don't want to feel overwhelmed starting from scratch again. :)

Welcome fellow Canuck,

 

I find that planning a destination wedding is not stressful however if you are having at home receptions it gets to be a little more like a real wedding so just keep that in mind. If i were to do it over i wouldn't do an at home reception. I haven't had it yet but it just adds to the stress, hopefully i will feel differently after it is all said and done.

 

good luck with everything

      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!
