Shipping Items to DR for the wedding


Recommended Posts

I think that I'm going to bring mine with me. I've read quite a few posts and it seems like most people have been bringing their decorations with them because it ends up being cheaper. I think that most airlines allow passengers to have two luggage per person so I'll probably ask some of my guests if they mind taking an extra bag if they only have one.

I hear the issue with shipping your decorations to the D.R. is they often get stopped at customs.  From there they sometimes do or DO NOT get to their final destination.   If you do get your stuff from customs, there is a good chance not all of it will be there.  It's well know that things often go missing on the trip to your wedding resort!

 

I am bringing mine down with me.  I have secured some family members to help!  Also, you'll have to claim your stuff at customs (and pay).  If you don't and you happen to get stopped they will take it all from you because it's unclaimed.

 

 

It's sort of a pain in the butt... but it would stink if you paid all this money for things and then customs takes them - - Well, I guess we'll all figure it out

Everything fit in my luggage - we were charged extra as we were overweight luggage wise but it that was it.

If you are concerned about having to claim anything, make sure you bring all your receipts to prove that everything was purchased in the country where you live

    • 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!
