Wedding in 2mo RIU Ocho Rios

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I've been planning my wedding for just under a year. We're happy not to over-do it, which is why we are going to the RIU in Ocho Rios. I keep thinking we should do OOT bags or pay for the extra stuff, but really...neither of us care. We just want to go down there, hop off the plane, fill Chandlynn in on the bizz and enjoy our time together.

I have been to a wedding on a cruise ship and it was the bare minimum...but it was just perfect.

We have 30 friends and family who are coming with us. Coordinating that was tragic enough. I know they'll be happy just to be on vacation and share our day.

Our rehearsal is on Friday...followed by our rehearsal dinner with all of our guests...for us this is enough of a welcome. Anyone who wants to join us, can stay for the beach party. (I don't want to eat up all of their vacation).

Our wedding is at 1pm followed by drinks at the beach bar while we're getting our pictures taken(our best friends are our wedding photographers). From 3-5 we meet again at the disco for the reception. Dinner is at 6:30. By then, I think most people will be intoxicated enough, so we'll play it by ear.

Sunday, anyone who wants to, can join us for the catamaran cruise that we booked where we are taking our photographers to "trash my dress" www.trashthedress.com in the falls and the ocean and in the foilage.

 

So that's all of it... I've been working on this long enough, I think I'm done. I'm ready to enjoy my day! Heather

    • 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!
