My husband, Ron proposed to me on the beach in the Bahamas in 2016. Now, how can a girl say "No" to that (even after swearing she would never marry again)? We both knew that we wanted a beach wedding! We live in Texas. Yes, there are beaches but not exactly what we were thinking!
After a ton of researching we decided on Secrets Papagayo in Costa Rica. We knew we wanted an all-inclusive adults only resort that wasn't outrageous from a financial standpoint. I think what sold us on Costa Rica was all the "Weddingmoon" options. There is so much to see and do there, other than the beach.
So we sent out our email invites and basically told everyone "We'd love to have you but 100% understand if you can't make it!" We ended up having a great group of 10 of our friends & family attend! It was perfect!
We were married under some trees on the beach late morning. After the ceremony and a few group pictures our guest sat down to a delicious brunch set up nearby while Ron and I took a few more pics! After we grabbed a quick bite to eat we all changed clothes and headed for the beach! We had arranged for a private catamaran trip for our group. It was perfect! Beautiful boat, amazing scenery, great friends and family, snorkeling, and just a perfect way to end a perfect day!
So that's our wedding story! We then spent another 8 days exploring the rainforests, volcanos, waterfalls, and cloud forests of Costa Rica (but that's for another post)!
