Hope to be married 1st week Mar/2011

Looking at Grand Pallidium Colonial

and Barcelo Maya Colonial

 

We are going to have 40-60 guests so we are unable to have the reception in an A la Carte. It looks like Barcelo will provide 20 meals as part of the wedding package and then only charge $24 per plate for each additional guest. The Pallidium looks like it will include 8 guests as part of the wedding package and then each additional guest will be 50-60 USD per plate which seems quite a bit more. Is anyone else experiencing these differences between resorts? How do you chose if you want to try and stay on a bit of a budget? Any feedback about either hotels receptions would be much appreciated.

Hi Tanya, welcome to the forum. Good luck with finalizing with the resort. I would definitely follow JanineA's advice. Check out the the different threads and see if there are discussions about that particular resort or you can also check out the Travel section and talk to one of the very helpful TA's.

 

Good luck!

We looked at the Barcelo and many other resorts in Punta Cana for our April 2011 wedding and ended up choosing the Barcelo Punta Cana due to them having the best and most reasonable wedding packages as well and it being a reasonable resort for our guests to afford. The other resorts look gorgeous but I couldnt bring myself to make guests feel they had to spend an arm and a leg to attend or put ourselves into debt over it!

      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!
