Here are the STDs we sent out to our guests. We knew almost right after we got engaged that we wanted to have a destination wedding in Jamaica. With our school schedule (and my desire to be married before graduation)... January 2009 (the 1st-10th) was our option.

 

With guests from different countries and at very different points in life... we wanted to get out the notice ASAP so that they could work into their schedules and budget.

 

By January 2008 we had pretty much decided we wanted to be married at ROR on January 5th 2009. However, for those of you familair with ROR know... reserving weddings at the start of a New Year takes forever. So unlike most peoples our STDs were a bit nonspecific.... with a week instead of a day and a maybe for the resort. I am very glad we went this route though... because it was defintely necessary so our friends could start saving and people could get off work!

 

Here are the postcards we sent to everyone we were inviting

And here are the magnets we sent only to close friends and family who might actually want us on their fridge. :)

We also included a letter explaining the situation outlined above. I got some of the wording from someone on here (thanks!) and tweaked it to my needing. I think the guests appreciated it. Who knows though. It saved from getting a lot of questions... with forwarding everyone to our website we are able to keep them updated on our new plans.

      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!
