Hi everyone! First time poster, months long lurker :)

We booked our wedding at GDR for September 14, 2017. Most of us are staying at EDR and a few people at EDC but we really liked the idea of getting married on the pier at GDR as it will protect some of our older family members from the heat and has a less chance of a change of location if it rains. We have an estimated guest list of 40 with 26 booked so far. We used Destination Weddings to get us group rates for some people, the rest of my wedding party will be staying as members as my parents and I are members al EDR. I have Maritza from Lomas as my wedding coordinator and after a first bad start, she seems to be good at getting back to me with answers to all my questions within a few days. We first decided to go with a Memorable Moments package but after calculating what we needed and what we didn't, we decided to go a la carte instead. I have a friend who had her destination wedding last year and she kept reminding me that no one remembers decorations but the activities instead. So we are focusing on some cool tote bags with gifts and possibly adding on to the reception "free" dinner as it seems to restrictive to me. We are using the free dinner that comes with Always and Forever for our welcome dinner on the Monday night and the free reception dinner is the one we "earned" by getting 16 rooms. Personally I am more inclined to purchase the BBQ Deluxe instead for the money and make it a really awesome meal. I keep hearing really good things about it, would anyone have any pics to show me? That was far as we are along right now!

    • 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!
