Sound like your dream wedding? It easily can be.

Costa Rica has become one of the premiere locations for destination weddings in the world. Its fabulously gorgeous beaches, lush rainforest, friendly people and abundance of hotels, resorts and vacation homes ranging from over-the-top luxury to relaxed and informal all combine to make this tiny Central American nation the place to be wed.

You’ve always wanted to travel there. Why not combine your wedding and honeymoon destination and make it one big party with your family and friends? Or go even simpler … just you and your sweetheart sharing the intimacy of a private “elopement” ceremony. Whatever your wedding wish, it can come true in Costa Rica. A nice plus is that citizens from any other country can get legally married in Costa Rica and have it be valid in their home country.
