Best Advice for Couples & Wedding Planners

We know wedding planning can be stressful. Don’t get tangled up in details as you prepare to tie the knot. We’ve put together a few pieces of our best advice for you.

  • Plan to book your wedding 1 year to 6 months in advance. This ensures we can secure your desired wedding date
  • We’re not the type of hotel that has multiple weddings on the same day. It’s important to us that our team fully attends to your needs. That’s why yours will be the only event of the day
  • Your guests have the flexibility to choose their accommodations. There is no minimum guest requirement. You can use our resort as your wedding venue. We can also provide recommendations for nearby accommodations for your guests
  • The number of events you plan is up to you. We find that many couples like to plan a welcome party or rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception
  • We recommend that your guests fly into Juan Santamaria International Airport (SJO). There are many direct flights into (SJO) from the US & Canada. Your family and friends can arrive here easily within a day
