New CR bride

Hi all,

We've just booked our wedding for the first week in May at Rancho Armadillo (Welcome to Rancho Armadillo :: Playas del Coco, Costa Rica). Does anyone have any Costa Rica insights? We've never been, so this is a real leap of faith!

Also, any tips on where to find a knee/calf length dress?

Thanks!

Welcome to this great forum! I bet you are super excited.

to the forum! The other day I saw a posting about David's Bridal having some tea legnth dresses. Also - often bridesmaids dresses can be ordered in white.

HAPPY PLANNING!

I am so excited that there is another CR Bride. I just got married there in September. Manuel Antonio to be exact. Ask me anything. I am more than happy to give you any advice. I am so excited!!!!!!

Congrats & Happy Planning

Thanks for all of the welcoming messages! I'm really excited but not stressed at all at the moment. Should I be? May seems so far away!

I tried on a few dresses over the holidays and I'm kind of coming around to the idea of a longer one, but I'm worried about it getting all sandy and dirty at the bottom (I'm going to need to wear it again for two receptions). Any ideas?

My dress did not get sandy when I was married on the beach (Costa Rica beach). As a matter of fact when I took it off after the ceremony it was still clean. The sand is so hard that it doesn't even get stuck in your dress. You should be fine.
