Local caterers can create international cuisine and there are plenty of facilities to host
breakfasts, receptions and other wedding-related events.
Getting married in Costa Rica is remarkably easy. There's no shortage of wedding
planners to smooth the way. The ceremony can be performed by an officiate or by a Costa
Rican attorney. As long as a couple can provide the appropriate documentation (such as
passports, proof of divorce or death certificates if required and an affidavit of singleness),
a lawyer will witness the proceedings and complete statements to be signed by the couple
following the ceremony. Those are then registered with the Civil Registry, translated, not-
arized by the couple's consulate or given an apostle.
Once that is complete the official notification is sent to their home, where they can re-
gister the marriage locally. Costa Rican weddings are recognized the world over and most
wedding planners will take care of the steps required, even down to providing witnesses
if a couple needs them! A planner will alleviate any stress so you can really be present
and enjoy your wedding day. With its warm weather and friendly people, Manuel Antonio
weddings are relaxed and fun. What's more, a wedding here means you don't have to go
elsewhere to enjoy a honeymoon in paradise. There are numerous resorts and private villas
to relax at after formalizing your vows, and plenty of activities for couples seeking an extra
thrill. From beachfront to lush hillside retreats, Manuel Antonio has it all. It's the perfect
place to launch your lifetime together.
