ladies, i'm curious to know who here uses a wedding planner/travel agent to help them arrange for their wedding?? I've pretty much been planning and researching everything on my own here...and then today I went to this place which is a one-stop shop for everything destination wedding related to try on dresses.  I started chatting with the wedding planner there and they were telling me how they can help you with everything including booking travel arrangement for your group and making sure everything goes exactly as you want.  And they don't charge a fee! (well i guess they earn commissions from our group travel) This got me wondering if I should use them instead of trying to do everything myself....especially knowing how frustrating it can sometimes get to try to get a hold of the resort's WC....

We are definately using a travel agent. But I don't see the need to have a weeding coordinator outside of the resort. We are just using the one the resort provides. And so far it has worked out perfectly. It does take a while to hear back, but doesn't bother me. We just want a simple plan free wedding..

I did all the bookings myself. Honestly..what can i say. I like doing it. Ilove to plan and have control of every detail. And for the size wedding we are having, it was easy. Plus I am hella anal and agree with the saying "If you want something done right, do it yourself!"

 

I negotated a contract with the hotel rather easily. They seemed to perfer that I wasnt a travel agent. They blocked off a set of rooms for us. We do not have to pay for what we don't book.I then set up an interactive website to allow our guests to book their room at their leasure.

 

Everyone is booking their own flights.

 

The resort is providing us with a WC. I am in corispondance with her a lot.

      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!
