Hi, we are planning a wedding this November with approximately 20 people. Originally we wanted to do it in Montezuma because we absolutely adore that place but after some thought we decided to look into other options to make it easier for our guests to get to.

Right now the hardest part is deciding on the venue. If anyone has done or been to a wedding to any of these resorts, I'd love some feedback please.

 

Villa Caletas is in Jaco and only 1 hour from the airport and also only 1 hour by boat from Montezuma but we really don't like the town Jaco itself and think it doesn't represent Costa Rica well and is very touristy. 
 

All the other 3 options are close to Liberia, which would require us all to fly there versus SJO, which will bring the flight price up. They also seem to be in touristy areas. 

Cala Luna is newly renovated and looks great, but the prices are really high. 

 

We want to offer our guests also options to stay elsewhere nearby so they are not obligated to pay ridiculous prices for lodging at the ceremony venue. Knowing it's doable to stay in a nice hotel for around $70 a night, we would like some options in this price range for our guests. 

 

Ideally we would stay in a wedding location about 3 days and then go elsewhere. 

 

I would greatly appreciate any feedback and/or recommendations, as well as possible vendors such as: wedding planner, photographer, flowers, cake, music. 

 

Thank you in advance!

      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

      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!
