Events & Weddings Costa Rica

If you have made it to my blog, you are most likely considering getting married in Costa Rica. If you are going to be getting married in Costa Rica, hiring a wedding planner in Costa Rica is a necessity. You need someone with not only a lot of experience but also close relationships with vendors. You need a wedding planner who responds quickly to your every question and doubt during the planning process. You need someone who is responsible and resourceful.

At Events & Weddings Costa Rica, we can plan your elaborate affair or intimate event…be there to answer all of your questions…give you advice on flowers and design…and turn your vision into a reality!

About a month ago, I had a bride-to-be contact me for a wedding in two weeks. Yes, that’s right, a wedding in 2 weeks. I was able to hire the photographer, music, officiant and florist during that short time period as wedding planners are resourceful! I acted quickly, of course, and as I have been planning events for some time, I have several vendors that I work with, making it quick and easy to plan an event with short notice. So why not hire a wedding planner for  your wedding in Costa Rica?!

Let’s face it: a wedding can be stressful! Trying to please the families and the friends can be difficult. How nice would it be to have someone alleviate that stress? That’s right — a wedding planner will make planning both fun and stress-free and can field questions from guests so the bride and the groom can be relaxed and happy!

Wedding planners will help you design your wedding to ensure that everything, as far as decor goes, flows together. From the flowers to the color of the napkins and tablecloths to the type of chairs used, no detail will be missing. Many people think that it’s hard to capture all of the details for your destination wedding as the planning is done from afar. Think again…that’s why you need a stylish wedding planner!

A wedding I planned and designed with the help of the bride and the florist was recently featured on La Belle Bride, a stylish wedding blog for the swanky bride. Here is what they said:

“Brides sometimes fear that destination weddings can seem a bit thrown together, what with being so far away while planning. The solution: Having an amazing wedding coordinator like Samantha Kohn of Events & Weddings Costa Rica .  And can I just say she doesn’t throw down some cookie cutter wedding! This wedding is rustic, adorable and personalized. The amazing yellow details killed me! Could you ask for more? Take a peek at these photos. NOTHING is missing. It’s sheer loveliness.”

A wedding planner specializes in just that: planning! Who is more organized than a planner?! From the timeline of the wedding weekend to the schedule of activities for the guests, wedding planners ensure that everything happens in a timely manner!

Keeping things simple. Who wants to complicate things? The wedding planner is the liaison between the bride and the groom and vendors as well as the go-to person to field questions from family and guests. This is especially important if you are going to have a destination wedding in Costa Rica. From should I rent a 4×4 to can I drink the water to que tiempo hace (what’s the weather like?)…you will absolutely need a knowledgeable and accessible point of contact for your guests! Wedding planner to the rescue!

Hiring a wedding planner will not only save you time but will also save you money! Wedding planners have strategic relationships with vendors in the area so will be able to get you discounted prices for their services. They will also help you stick to a budget and find ways to cut costs!

Why hire a wedding planner? May I count the ways? Over the course of the next few days, I am going to post reasons why it’s important to hire a wedding planner for your destination wedding in Costa Rica.

Planning a wedding takes countless hours and let’s face it, there is not enough time in the day to work full-time AND plan a wedding. Planning a wedding is a full-time job so leave it up to a professional to take care of all of the many details for you. A wedding planner will facilitate the entire planning process, will meet with the various vendors, and will come up with creative ideas for you, and more…
