Our reception was a BBQ.  It was held at a restaurant in Tamarindo, La Laguna (del Cocodrillio).  We had chicken, fish & shrimp, along with potatoes, fried beans, tortilla's, salsa, fried plantains with cheese and salad.  They could have done beef as well.  It was delicious.  There are other locations but we found it more difficult to work with them to get what we wanted at a reasonable price.  If you are having you wedding at a villa or private house, you could look at hiring a caterer.  Saritas Bakery in Tamarindo did our cake / cupcakes and I know her significant other does catering and could do something like this, http://www.jaysprivatechefservices.com.  There is also www.costaricacatering.com.  I didn't use them but they did offer me a quote for a cake and they do all types of catering.  Depending on how many guests you are using, I would also highly recommend Jason from the Garden Market Grill in Playa Grande - we took a group of 38 to his little garden restaurant and it was amazing.  You can find them on Trip Advisor.

 

Honestly, ever meal I have ate anywhere in Costa Rica was awesome!  Good luck...

    • 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!
