We bought aqua shell curtains to hang in the back. We sent them via FedEx to Dreams & they arrived last week without incident! Yay!

Shoes sign & brushes
I saw someone’s shoe parking sign somewhere along the way and loved this idea. I made my own version using thick craft felt, white acrylic paint and a wooden flip-flop crafty thing, all from Michael’s. I bought a small (~2 ft) wire easel that will stick in the sand and hold the sign through a small hole punched in the top of it.

Reception
Our reception will be poolside at the Las Palmas Terrace.

We’re going to have lounge furniture set up for the cocktail hour & reception. Here’s an idea of how they can set things up, but I’m not sure what the end result will be.

Table numbers & place card holders
I decided I wanted to go with something that could double as a favor & thought Mexican Talavera tiles would be perfect! They can be used as trivets, spoon rests or just as decoration. I ordered 20 different hand-painted tiles from TilesandTiles.com (great customer service!), painted the backs with terracotta paint and then wrote guests’ names & table #’s in silver calligraphy marker.
The table #’s are Hacienda house tiles ordered from finecraftsandimports.com

      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!
