Just going to list some things about the wedding
Weather: The venue is located in the mountainous areas around San Jose so it’ll be comfortable in the day but may get cold at night. Bring a jacket just in case. Current forecast shows thunderstorms so it’ll probably be raining.
Attire: Semi-formal. No jeans.
Communication: Whatsapp is used mainly in Costa Rica including vendors and population in general. App is free, make a profile and add us on there so we can stay in communication throughout the trip. Wifi is available at most public places.
Things to bring:
-If you are particular about medication, Tylenol and Advil are always good to have. The equivalent in Costa Rica is called Panadol.
-If you are afraid of upset stomach, it would not be a bad idea to bring Pepto Bismol.
-Of course there are mosquito repellents in C.R however prices for these tend to be higher. Not a bad idea to bring your own either.
-If you are attending the excursion, it’s good to bring a swim suit for the hot springs and good shoes (tennis/walking shoes) to walk at the national park. Also, extra shoes (it is rainy season so expect muddiness :)).
-Learn to say Pura Vida!

Hotel/transportation update:
We are in the process of booking the Radisson San Jose for our invited guests and arranging transportation to the venue from the hotel. Let us know if you need accommodations and transportation to the wedding. Price is $45 per room.
Also if you need assistance on getting transportation from the airport to the city, let us know so we can explore options.
We will let you know prices as it depends on the number of guests.

Updates to website coming:
It’s been awhile since our last update! We want to let y’all know the wedding is finally happening and all plans are still in place for September 2022. We recently traveled to Costa Rica and this time we get to experience as tourists what kind of prerequisites are needed to travel and safety measures that are taking place in the country. We’ll be adding new information about our recent visit and other tips on visiting Costa Rica as well.
June 6:
Wedding rescheduled again:
Once again, we reevaluated the current traveling situation to Costa Rica and decided to postpone our event which will be next year. We decided on a date that is much further out than the rescheduled date which we feel that conditions would probably take a longer time to get better. Traveling is still risky due to border closures, closed accommodations, and general traveling risks. As mentioned in the previous post, everyone registered in the invite system should be receiving an email with a new date.
March 26:
Wedding rescheduled:
After assessing issues such as travel restrictions, border closures, local restrictions on gatherings, we decided it’ll be best to reschedule our event. Everyone registered in the invite system should be receiving an email with a new date.
March 13:
Recent events:
We’re closely monitoring the situation with the recent travel restrictions and how it may impact travel to Costa Rica. For now, our wedding date and location hasn’t changed. We will give an update if things do change.
March 7:
Dates to travel:
One of the questions we’ve had lately are what are our dates of travel. We are planning to be there Wednesday, May 27 – Wednesday June 3.
Plane tickets:
Upon checking tickets recently, airfare to San Jose is still cheap compared to prices I’ve checked in January. I’m thinking the prices will stay this cheap or get even cheaper later especially with international airlines.
February 13:
Accommodations:
We are currently collecting information on where our guests would like to stay. Take a look at where you like to stay in the accommodations link and let us know.
Plane tickets:
Upon checking tickets this month, airfare to San Jose has been getting cheaper than when I was checking in January. Airfare often times can fluctuate up and down as the date gets closer. My prediction is that prices will gradually fall to March so my plan for now is to purchase our tickets possibly in March.
