Hey @@JulieStaad ! Congrats! When are you getting married? I'm currently working with her, she reaponds fairly quickly, and has provided me with a lot of info! I think a couple of us on here are working with her. :)

@@JulieStaad Congrats!! I'm working with her as well. My only advice is to plan your emails a bit and try to ask for everything you need answered in one email. At first, I was asking a question and waiting for a reply and then asking another question and it took awhile with the back and forth, but now I try to list out all the things I want answered at the same time. That way even if it takes her a week or two to get back to me, I still have all the information I need to move forward on something once I do hear back.

Hey @@KeriT21 - not until November of 2017, but we are trying to give friends and family lots of time to plan and make the process less stressful for ourselves. :) When is your big day? So exciting - and glad to hear Thamara is helpful!

Great advice @@kjb0528 - appreciate it! Did she send you any cocktail hour or reception options and photos yet?

@@JulieStaad I think I got those from the ERC wedding packet that I got when I first reserved our date (before being assigned a wedding coordinator), but I can't remember. I'll try to figure out a way to add attachments to this post to share with you. I was there last November so I know the resort well enough if you have any questions on it. How many guest are you expecting as that will make a difference on your venue.

@@kjb0528 we are thinking it will be 30-40 and are leaning towards Las Olas for the reception but haven't visited the property so aren't sure on that or cocktail hour. A few women on here have been kind enough to share a couple photos but there don't seem to be many available from ERC or online to give me a sense of what to pick.

@@JulieStaad Do you have an option of 4? I was told only 3 or 5pm. We are getting married in January and debated the same thing and went back and forth and ultimately landed on 5pm, rather than 3pm based on our photographer's recommendation. A year or so ago, the cancun area changed their time zone so the sun now sets an hour later (approx 6:30pm in Jan). The "magic hour" for pictures is supposedly the hour before sunset so this gives us about an hour of pictures before the sun is fully set. I'm still nervous about it but basically I was worried about the flow of the day having the ceremony at 3pm and then having a long break before dinner.

    • 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!
