“Almost immediately after we got engaged, we knew we were going to take the plunge on a destination wedding.

“Having never been to Costa Rica, we needed a lot of help to make our wedding vision become a reality. Samantha made us feel like we were her most important client because she was so responsive to our every question.
Her calm demeanor and organizational skills made me feel at ease throughout the entire process. She also took the pressure off of me by reaching out to our guests, making sure that they felt comfortable with all their travel plans. The vendors were top notch professionals that I never would have been able to find on my own. We really appreciated that she was sensitive to our budget too. We had high expectations and Samantha really delivered – it was the best day of our lives!
Many of our guests also said that ours was the best wedding they have ever attended. We highly recommend Events & Weddings Costa Rica!” - Veronica & Michael
“Costa Rica was the easy choice for us to have our wedding and Samantha was the perfect choice to plan it. We were initially considering having our wedding at the resort where we were staying, but felt it lacked the flexibility, personal touch and Costa Rican authenticity that was very important to us. Samantha nailed everything, from the perfect venue, elegant floral arrangements and decor to the incredible photographer and wonderful addition of the local guitar duo. Samantha was always attentive to our wishes, calm and professional, she thought of every detail and her follow-up was outstanding. The end result far exceeded our expectations; it truly was the wedding of our dreams.” - Jessica & Mike
“Luck isn’t a big enough word to describe how fortunate we were to have found Samantha as our wedding planner. I am not sure how she does it, but the planning and time she put into our day was amazing. She was meticulous in her planning leading up to the event and I was even more impressed when we arrived.
Behind the scenes, Samantha kept my head on straight by assisting the entire weekend. She did it all, allowing us to enjoy our time in Costa Rica. The day itself seemed straight out of the pages of a magazine due to her flawless taste and recommendations. The flowers were stunning, the cake delicious, there wasn’t one element she missed.
I am not sure how she does it, but the end result was perfection. With Samantha seeing to the details, I was able to sit back and relax with my friends and family truly enjoying an amazing experience.” - Rachanna & Billy

“When we made the decision to get married in Costa Rica, I had no idea what to expect. After several months of trying to plan the event ourselves, I realized we needed major help. I feel very lucky to have been directed to Samantha.
I was impressed by how much time she contributed to the event. She thought of every detail – things I would have never considered. Samantha helped me find a great photographer, a tasty and beautiful cake, fabulous music, and much more. She pulled everything together and created a flawless and very memorable event.

“When we decided to have our wedding in Costa Rica, I had no idea how to plan a wedding thousands of miles away in a country you’ve never even been to! Then I found Samantha who made it all happen! Over the course of a year, Samantha helped me plan the wedding of my dreams. She was knowledgeable, always calm, and a great partner for the entire process. I was a lot to handle with my Type A personality…but Samantha didn’t flinch! She handled my millions of questions and concerns with ease, never making me feel like a crazy bride! She is super attentive, answered e-mails almost immediately, and was there for every detail. And our wedding….well it was just perfect.
