Weâ€re all booked !!! finally J

Here is the plan…

We have 27 adults (including the 2 of us) and 3 kids traveling with us.  Weâ€re leaving May 1, 20011 and the wedding is on May 04, 2011.

We get there on Sunday around noon and the plan is to meet everyone in our room to have a toast and give them the loot bags and off we go on a bar hopping tour. (get to know the resort)

Monday : drinking game day (twister, kings,…), the purpose is to get everyone drunk enough so they canâ€t drink as much on Tuesday (the day before the wedding) we have a crazy group…everyone loves to drink and party..hahaha

Tuesday : relaxing day (everyone should be hangover)

Wednesday :  wedding day…. The ceremony is on the beach @ 1:00 pm (chic and natural).  Iâ€m doing my makeup and hair with Shenique. 

After the ceremony we have our half an hour complimentary reception to have a toast with everyone and take pictures and hangout for couple of hours.  Weâ€ve got the beaches photography package since we wanted to have pictures of the ceremony and reception.  Here is the package we got:

Package 2       Best Value (red tab)  

·         Two hour session w/Professional Photographer

·         One 12x12 Wedding Album (with 110 photos)

·         Two 8x8 Parent Books

·         Two Calendars

·         Two Magnets

·         CD with Original Photos

·         FREE 20x30 hand painted canvas (a $300 value)

Sale Price:  $1,565

At around 4:30 Andrew and I leave to take pictures with Ileana (I couldnâ€t resist) !!  and our guests will have a couple of hours of free time. Iâ€ve bought 2 dresses (theyâ€re not wedding dresses, simple bridesmaid dress in ivory) so I can trash one :o crazy I know !!!

Weâ€ll be back at the resort by 6:30 -7 and the plan is to have a cocktail hour with the calypso band and then 2 hour duo plated dinner reception with the DJ. Here is the menu and itâ€s $75 pp.

    • 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!
    • 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!
