Daily Destination – Costa RicaIt’s Wednesday, which means the week is halfway over! If you’re struggling to make it to the weekend and the promise of relaxation (for some of you, at least) hopefully today’s laid-back Daily Destination will help you see the tiny light at the end of the tunnel that is the work week. Today’s wedding comes to us from Costa Rica wedding photographer Julie Comfort. Tanya & Tyler I love Julie’s description of this couple, so I am going to steal it. “They are the impossibly lucky combination of warmth, creativity, love, and Canadian.” I see all of this and more in these photos...

Maps: Costa RicaTo say that the couple who procured this map is the “active” type would be an understandment! They so enjoy nature and the outdoors that not only are they getting married in the beautiful setting of Costa Rica, but they are exchanging their vows right at Montezuma Waterfall! Their map includes nearly every activity one might want to enjoy in Costa Rica like parasailing, snorkeling, hiking, sailing, kayaking, surfing, horseback riding, ziplining (notice the bride & groom at the waterfall!) and more! This couple used their map as the invitation itself so the reverse side include...

Escape to… Costa RicaCosta Rica is the perfect tropical destination for romance…and one of my ultra-favorite destinations in the world. Vibrant colors, serene beaches…everything you could ever want in a love-filled getaway. The beach itself feels visceral and authentic…a place to recollect yourself among the sometimes rocky shore of life. Pause for moments of reflection on your recent wedding or anniversary…or simply laugh the day away with your lover, favorite cocktails in hand. The architectural detail is Victorian meets Neo-classical…transporting your heart and soul to a time ...

A Lovely Costa Rica WeddingI don’t have the opportunity to feature many destination weddings on Once Wed, so when I came across Kiley and Patrick’s wedding in Costa Rica I couldn’t wait to share it with you. There is so much to love about this wedding, but it was the bride and groom’s impeccable, classic style which first caught my eye… We decided on Costa Rica because it was the most cost effective way to have a beautiful wedding. We didn’t realize until halfway through planning that it really was the wedding of our dreams, and we wouldn’t have done it any other way! We kept costs down in several ways...

Costa Rica HoneymoonModern Bride Magazine has ranked Costa Rica as #1 for Best Adventure Honeymoon. And while it’s true you can fly across a zip line and enjoy a panoramic view of the rain forests, volcanoes and waterfalls, the real adventure begins with the roads. The Pan American Highway is well paved with easy to read signs. The trouble starts when you take the smaller roads that lead you to local crafts, butterfly farms, and popular waterfalls.One of my favorite things to see in Costa Rica is the Arenal Volcano, situated next to the village of La Fortuna. The Arenal Volcano is the only active volcano in Cos...
