My fiance and I were planning on getting married in Zihautanejo. We visited in March of this year. We met with the wedding planner at Las Brisas del Mar in Zihua and Las Brisas Resort Ixtapa (they are not at all affiliated). Both place had their pros and cons. I loved the intimacy of Las Brisas del Mar, but there wasn't a good spot for the actual ceremony if you are going to have over 25 people. The reception site at the hotel (their restaurant) was awesome.

 

Las Brisas resort is much larger. The rooms were incredible, and there were a lot of great options for the ceremony and the reception. The building itself was a bit dated.

 

We went to dinner at a place called Tentaciones; it's a restaurant and boutique hotel. Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Vacation Rentals - Tentaciones Hotel & Lounge Pool - Zihuatanejo, Guerrero, Mexico The place is small, but it's incredible. We got to know the owner and were planning on having the wedding there. We would've been the first wedding. When we got home the plane tickets had mysteriously tripled in price. We tried to wait it out b/c we loved Zihua, but the prices didn't budge, and we didn't want to ask our guests to spend $600 to $900 for a ticket. There's only one airline carrier that flies there from the East Coast so there isn't much flexibility.

 

Ok, time to cut this short; it's getting long :). Zihua is great, but it's not easy to get to. The cost of a wedding there is expensive (one place charged $17 per hour per person for alcohol). If you have any questions or want pictures, let me know.

      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!
