WOW that isnt bad compared to the $350 per centerpiece from the resort. & yes i totally understand not wanting to spend so much on something like flowers... As of now I am thinking I will bring some type of DIY centerpeices and possibly rent vases from the resort (I read somewhere on here where i girl did this) just so I won't have to bring all those vases with me... maybe an option you may want to consider. Request pics I would love to see what they can do!!!
Hey annetta- Just wanted to let u know the centerpieces through the resort range from $65-$185. I'm not sure where the price of $350 came from.

I was kind of thinking the same thing....where is the 350 for centerpeices coming from? Maybe thats for a few?? Can anyone clarify this??

The $350 centerpieces are the premium ones - think the super tall ones with lots of flowers - those would be in that price range. The more average wedding centerpieces (depending on size and flowers) are in the lower price range.
According to my PDF, the premium ones are $185. Still not sure where $350 is coming from...

Just a thought for those of you trying to cut down on centerpiece costs - we did DIY luminairies that were inexpensive to make (under $40 for 25 of them) and laid flat for packing (bonus!). 

 

I bought vellum paper from Staples and printed our name, date and starfish image on the vellum paper and then used glue dots (from walmart) to stick the edges together.  I put a battery operated tea light in it and tada inexpensive centerpieces!  Honestly, my guests thought they were glass - when my FIL knocked into the table and bumped it over a bunch of people tried to catch it so it didn't break on the floor, haha!

 

Below are a few pictures of the luminairies - we used these with sheer table runners and some "diamond" decor scattered on the table. The last picture also shows the centerpiece provided by the resort (in divine package) that was on the table during the ceremony.

My pdf might be out of date since it is about a year old but it says premium centerpieces are $230...I think the confusion with 350 comes from bridal bouquet - that is the price for a premium bouquet.  But again, brides who are planning right now should have more recent info that I.

Excellent, that is so helpful! I am wondering if the "Columns and Arrangements (2)" would be those two vases beside at the pergola that i am wanting...? if so, that is reasonable and then I could use them for the head table or something as well! PS: you are getting married on my birthday :D i hope your day is perfect, cant wait to hear all about it as I will be leaving shortly after you return home!

    • 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!

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!
