Hi Ladies,

 

How many are getting married on one resort, villa, island etc and honeymooning on another?  I am thinking of maybe going to stay at another resort after the wedding but wondering if it is worth the hassle traveling while supposed to be on honeymoon.

We are planning to be gone for two weeks! We are staying at the wedding site resort for the first week and changing resorts for the second week! The honeymoon location is about 20 min away from the first one! Mix it up mid trip! And be alone......😉

I read these posts of all these brides that want to honeymoon at the same location that all the guests are staying at, I think they're CRAZY.  lol.  But...to each his/her own..I guess for them its super important to spend time with their loved ones who they probably haven't seen in a long time (I still think they're crazy, lol).  Anyway, we are staying at our wedding resort for only 1 more night after our wedding.  We arrive Tuesday, get married on Friday, and leave on Sunday morning to another resort on the same island but 2 hours away.  At that point, I'll have had enough of everyone, had a chance to spend a few days with them all, and will need to decompress from all the wedding craziness in a new surrounding.  I think that's something every bride and groom deserve!

 

Good luck!

Ha!  Mine is too!  My FI is APPALLED that I don't want to spend the entire week and then some with his fam n our friends.  I had to negotiate with him on it.  But, ultimately it came down to this:  he travels so much, average 2 wks each month.  I kinda sugar talked him by explaining we never get to spend quality time just by ourselves, and this will be the only opportunity before we have kids (umm like next year) when we'll be able to enjoy each other's company by ourselves in a beautiful location as husband and wife.  He got it, understood and relented.  Good luck with your plans : )

hahaahhah!! So I see both of our FI's feel the same way.  I am going to have to sugar talk him into the same.  We already have children and they are actually leaving 2days after the wedding and traveling back with family so he should really understand the fact that we need to have our honeymoon alone.  I mean how is it that we are getting a children break and being stuck with family and friends.

    • 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!
