This is the timeline my photographer sent me for my wedding that starts at 4 just so you have an idea.  

This is for 6 hour of photography but my reception ends at 10 pm. 

 

3:00 PM - 4:00 PM | Getting Ready
4:00 PM - 4:30 PM | Ceremony
4:30 PM - 5:30 PM | Cocktails + Sunset Portraits
5:30 PM - 7:30 PM | Dinner + Toasts
7:30 PM - 9:00 PM | Dancing + Reception Fun

I will be going over about an hour and would have to pay the photographer for an extra hour :(

 

1:00 - 2:00 Getting Ready

2:00 - 2:30 Ceremony

3:30 - 4:30 Cocktail Hour/Pictures

5:00 - 8:00 Dinner/Reception on La Barcaza Wedding Boat.

I don't know what happens after this. I may end up either extending the boat or everyone go to the disco at the hotel. (Not sure if there is even a disco there). I guess I should check that out.

This is my timeline for now - still toying with it.

 

My ceremony is early at 2pm, but it's in December so I'm okay with that (sunset at 5:10pm). It also gives us a ton of time for pics which is important to us. We're also planning on paying to extend our reception for 3 more hours than what is included :). We hired our photographer for 8-10 hours, and our videographer will be there for 8 hours probably

 

 

9:00 AM– 12:45 PM   | Hair and Makeup. Bridesmaids should be dressed by 12:45pm

1 PM – 1:45 PM         | Both sides getting Ready / Putting on Bride’s dress shots
2:00 PM – 2:30 PM    | Ceremony
2:30 PM – 5:30 PM    | Pictures w/ family, guests, wedding party, bride and groom pics, food and break somewhere in there


5:00 PM – 6:00 PM    | Cocktails
6:00 PM – 11:00 PM  | Dinner, Dancing + Reception Fun
 

We put a break in between the ceremony and reception. We figured we're all staying at the resort, so people can go take a nap, change, eat, do whatever they want in between. We don't want our reception to finish too early

    • 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!
