Thanks so much everyone for the warm welcome. I didn't realize there were so many of you from the DC area!

 

We are expecting about 80-90 people (including children). Ideally, we are looking for a somewhat private place to have the reception, possibly a restaurant terrace overlooking the water, but we want to be able to dance and carry-on without any time restrictions. His family is Latin and they will party until the sun comes up! :)

 

We are coming down for a site visit on September 21 through 23 and hope to be able to narrow our options to a handful. We want to be able to check out the local Catholic Churches as well. Has anyone done their civil and then a religious ceremony in PDC?

We are having a heck of a time deciding where to have the reception though. I am hoping that with all the wonderful information that is in this forum, we will be able to pick the perfect spot for us.

I hope everyone is doing well! Congrats to all you brides out there.

Hey Melissa! Welcome! Where in DC are you from? That's where I was born and raised. Mom and Dad just sold their house on the Potomac in Fort Washington to move full time to Ocean City..

I have already found so many wonderful ideas on this forum and haven't even come close to looking at everything. Thanks again for everyone's kind greetings.

 

For those asked and who are familiar with the DC area, I actually live in Rosslyn. Originally from Columbus, Ohio, I moved here via Minnesota almost 10 years ago and I love it here!!

 

Annie ~ Thanks for your suggestion about Dreams Tulum. Unfortunately the chapel there can only hold about 20 people and we plan on having 4 times that many people.

 

The research continues...

      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!
