RIU PALACE COSTA RICA (New beside RIU Guanacaste)


Recommended Posts

Hello, I am in major confused mode right now! my thoughts when planning the wedding would be thst I woul pay my own way and the cost of the wedding, but I am told I am respo sible for paying for all of the rooms upfront, is that right? And if so, how does that work when my guest book and pay?

 

Also, what is the major difference between the palace and the riu guanacasta?

 

Thanks!!

I think that depends on your travel agent and what not, we had to put a down payment to save the rooms, but once our guests booked then the money we put down was used towards our room. The Palace is newer, we didn't go over to the Guanacaste a ton becasue we didn't feel the need to.

Hey Antoinette,   Congratulations on your recent Engagement! What is that you would like to know? Here are the pictures that I have, for your reference. These are for some of the venue options at the RIU Palace Costa Rica.     Conference Centre Ballroom  http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/content/type/61/id/207072/width/350/height/700     Green Area http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/content/type/61/id/207073/width/350/height/700     Green Area http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/content/type/61/id/207074/width/350/height/700     Flamingo Terrace http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/content/type/61/id/207075/width/350/height/700     Terrace Limpia (4th Floor Terrace) - Very large area and beautiful for reception, but maximum time is 10PM since there are a lot of rooms right under the terrace http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/content/type/61/id/207076/width/350/height/700

I am planning my wedding, but only see one option for the ceremony location, is that right?

@ccoburn142 Hello saw that you got married at the RIU palace and wanted to know a few things, Did you end up paying extra for a private ceremony and if so was it a huge cost. Also how was the wedding coordinator did they do everything you wanted. I will be getting married here in AUG 2016 and just want to make sure this is the right choice. Also can you put a down payment on everybody's  room or actually pay the full price for it.

Thank you

Chelsea

Hey we're planning a destination wedding at Riu Palace in Costa Rica. We were wondering if you had any information on reserving the rooftop terrace or any info on rates for catering? Thanks!

Our wedding is in April at the Palace, and so far planning has been easy. If you have any questions I can try and help, once we get back I would be able to say more about the resort itself and the experience.

    • 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!
