New Years Wedding

We have a group coming in for a Costa Rica wedding around New Years.

It might sound a little odd at first to decide to have your wedding during a major holiday, but there is a clear advantage for those planning destination weddings. If you have your wedding in Costa Rica and you want all your friends to be able to come, choosing a holiday weekend makes it easier for people to get time off to travel to your event. Its easier to take a whole week off for many people and while people are usuaully willing to travel domestically for a long weekend or just two days for a wedding, if you ask them to travel internationally, its a better use of their travel time and money if they can take a few extra days off to enjoy their destination.

Certainly Costa Rica offers plenty to enjoy for tranquil to heart pounding there are all kinds of adventures awaiting your wedding guests when you choose to have a Costa Rica wedding.

Tranquil: birdwatching, ariel tram gondola tours of the canopy, relaxing on one of our many postcard beaches, wildlife tours - which cross over into heart-pounding when you watch the crocodile man hand feed his monstrous friend

Adrenaline: canopy tours, surfing, ATV rides, motocross rental, canyoneering, waterfall jumping

I hear if you play golf right its tranquil, but watching some people break their clubs, clearly there can be adrenaline involved. Whether you are breaking your clubs or gazing happily as the flag shudders with the impact of your hole in one, Costa Rica offers some spectacularly scenic courses near our hotel in Jaco.

The sportfishing here is world class too. You will get some time to sit in tranquility, but a leaping marlin will shatter that tranquility pretty darn good.

If you have some friends getting married, you will be doing them and yourself a service when you suggest they celebrate their union with a Costa Rica wedding at Jaco Hotel DoceLunas.

Latest Wedding, Kinkajous, beach sunset

Another happy couple celebrated their wedding in Costa Rica yesterday. Congratulations to Ben and Danielle! They chose to get married down on the beach. It's not quite the dry season yet, and they thought maybe they were having bad luck when they found it was raining on the private beach that we arranged for them, but it cleared up just in time for the wedding and there was an usually dramatic l sunset. They had their Chef's dinner on the private terrace and the kinkajous (Costa Rican bush babies) came out to celebrate their nuptials. We will have a quote up pretty soon at www.docelunas.com.
