I'm sorry. We have had some issues with my inaccessible family not coming and not getting tier acts together with getting passports. At the end of the day we all have to remember that has Long as the two of you are there...no

One else matters.

Sneak peak from friend's camera. I'm eager to see the photographers. It was blaring hot and sooo sunny so I know we were fighting squinting. She moved us around a lot to help with that.

I picked based on what the resort told me too - bridal party, bride, signing and exit.

 

Tipping - regulars for the AI part then WC, photographer and wait staff/bartenders (plan to give lump sum and they can divy up). Fiancé doesn't agree with photographer and possibly WC but I win :)

In the end the passport was only a small part of the problem. His work revoked his holidays - long story. Too many people booked on holidays so he's not coming :( yesterday was the cut off for name changes and he only found out at 10pm last night. I told him to quit and find a new job but he won't lol. Apparently they said they'd reimburse his trip but I'm always skeptical.

oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that :(. Did they just revoke the holidays? That seems super unfair, if you booked the week off months ago, chances are that you already paid for a trip somewhere. I'd be super angry if I was him, enough to quit my job  :angry:

omg No way! Wow. So is your sister still going alone even if he can't? You're fine on numbers though right? Does it really mess anything up for you?  I've had that happen and I was reimbursed but I was totally PO'd believe me. So was Doug. Vacations are too important to be forced to miss them.

 

So are you over the moon excited yet????? What time do you leave??

Hey!

Yes my sister is still coming. They had planned to drive here so she scrambled today to find a connector flight.  She is very upset and rightfully so. I think she is also worried about being a 3rd wheel and how it will impact her trip, but she has all of us so it will all work out ok.   It is such a total piss off, but apparently it happens as you know. It's almost amazing people would do that to someone!  For me, it doesn't affect us whatsoever, he is out the money though as he was 100% paid in full.   I should let my WC know about the change in persons as I would get a reduction in cost as he doesn't need a plate/open bar.

 

We leave on Saturday AM at 8am!!!   I am really starting to get excited now because all my friends and family (over 30 on our flight) all arrive tomorrow!!!!! yay!!!

 

Thanks for thinking of me :)

But what about her room? If it's based on double occupancy, will they let her stay alone in the room without paying the extra? I'm sure everything is going to be fabulous and I can't WAIT to see your pics and hear all about it!!!! I'm up to my neck in year end right now so this week has been total crap but in case I get too busy tomorrow, have a wonderful time. With all of your planning and the beautiful things you've put together, it will be gorgeous!

Her boyfriend was paid in full so to them it's still a double occupancy room. If it was at deposit time yes she would have paid more. It's basically like he's there but he's not. That's what travel agent said anyways as the hotel and airline don't lose any money.

 

Thanks so much. I can't wait to tell everyone about it. :)

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      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!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      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!
