Top Wedding Venues in Costa Rica

The Springs Resort and Spa, La Fortuna

This beautifully situated resort in the middle of the rainforest, close to the Arenal volcano, is a great option for both elopements and large weddings. You will have a choice of places for ceremonies as well as for your wedding reception. Terraces overlooking the volcano, beautiful gardens near the river, all surrounded by spectacular tropical greenery. The wedding photos in The Springs are always amazing, it's one of the best places in Costa Rica. I recommend booking "trash the dress" sessions for the second day at La Fortuna waterfall.

Dreams Las Mareas, El Jobo Guanacaste

If you are looking for an all-inclusive hotel in Costa Rica then Dreams Las Mareas may be a great choice.
The hotel specializes in destination weddings - they organize several hundred a year, yes, several hundred). You will find many spots for your wedding ceremony - gardens, terraces, various beach locations. The wedding reception may also be in a variety of locations, including the ballroom. As with other wedding locations, I suggest you do a "trash the dress" session over the waterfall (the closest is Llanos De Cortes around 1.5h by car) a day or a few days after your wedding.

Rio Perdido Hotel & Thermal River, Bagaces

This delightful hotel is situated in Bagaces, about an hour's drive from Liberia Airport. It's an amazing place, away from everything and exactly as their website says "Rio Perdido is a place of adventure for nature lovers and adrenaline junkies alike. It is also naturally a peaceful setting, where disconnecting comes easily, and the harmony of mind, body, and spirit are restored."
This is a frequently chosen location for elopements. Here we can take photos of getting ready, make the first look on a canyon-hanging platform or a hanging bridge, Ceremony can be organized in several locations, one of which is the Thermal River. Many couples choose to make a ceremony at the waterfall Llanos De Cortes, which is only 45 minutes away. I recommend Rio Perdido especially if you are planning elopement or intimate wedding in Costa Rica.

Costa Rica Elopement Photographer - Best Waterfall Venues

Most of my couples are planning their elopement in Costa Rica at one of these wonderful waterfalls.

We can find them in almost every part of the country and each of them has its own charm. There are many factors to keep in mind when choosing.

Most of the waterfalls are open to the public and can therefore get very crowded. Also note that not every waterfall in Costa Rica will be accessible all year round. During the rainy season, some locations can be simply flooded, unsafe and closed.

It is also important that the wedding photographer you choose has experience and help you advise on all these issues, including the season, the best light, etc.

The bigger the adventure, the better. If you like hiking, adventure or just need some friendly advice in planning your elopement in Costa Rica, let me know. I'd be happy to assist.

A Dreamy Destination Wedding In Costa Rica

Amanda and Jonathan chose the Dreams Las Mareas Resort & Spa as the place for their dream wedding in February 2020—after all, Costa Rica is where Jonathan had popped the question in an intimate and lavish proposal two years earlier.

The two university sweethearts knew that Costa Rica, with its vibrant and colourful f lora and fauna, would be the perfect backdrop for their nuptials. “We purposely chose navy for the bridesmaids to highlight their tropical bouquets, which featured vivid orange, red and yellow blooms as well as green tropical plants like monstera deliciosa and palms,” Amanda says.

At the heart of the wedding decor was a stunning ceremonial arch surrounded by lush tropical florals. Fresh flowers also took centre stage on the elegantly laid wooden harvest tables. “We loved the bright colours that reflected the beauty of our beach venue and the landscape of Costa Rica,” Amanda explains.
