Hello everyone my name is Shaneque and I recently got engaged in August of this year. I was planning a traditional wedding but then a coworker told me about his destination wedding and the price of it was half the reception fee. I went researching and tried a lady who does the planning but got discouraged today once she sent me pricing options for hotels for my guest. I mean is 600-700 the normal range for 3 night stays? I thought that was ridiculous. Also ladies if you have any tips or recommendations please let me know. If you planned your destination wedding on your own please fill me in.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

A Newbie

@@MissWest Congrats on your engagement and welcome to the forum.  My first advice , you might want to get in touch with a travel agent who specializes in Destination Wedding. There owners of this page are travel agent.  Also check out the low season resort prices depending on where you prefer to have your wedding. you might find some good deals.  

 

So many Brides do plan on their own especially when having a resort wedding.

 

 

Happy Planning!

      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!
