What size of paper lanterns are you ladies getting? I am having a really hard time deciding, 8 inch? 10? 12? 14? 16? etc. I did think to mix and match colours and sizes (I am going with yellow, pink, orange) Should I also get white or stick with coloured lanterns?


i have 12" and think they are PERFECT! 2LED's w/ 1 battery lights it up just perfect!

i also have Ivory Blue & Green! ( my colours )

I had about 20 lanterns and I didnt use them all where I thought we would.... We had our reception outside by the beach and so they hung some on a string between palm trees. they also used some to line the walkway to the beach - very nice. The wedding coordinator met us at our car and walked us into the reception holding one too. Very cool. I bought some from a dollar store that had little battery operated ights built right in - word of advice - check the lights and the batteries first... :) Good luck

    • 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!
