^ Marlin Del Rey Catamaran for the reception on Saturday ^ We’re so excited to have you join us in Costa Rica for a week of celebration, relaxation, and adventure! To make sure everyone has the best time, we’ve planned a variety of optional activities across several days. Whether you're looking to explore the natural beauty of Costa Rica, enjoy some downtime, or join in on pre-wedding celebrations, there’s something for every taste and schedule. These events are totally optional and you’re welcome to pick and choose based on your arrival dates and personal preferences. Additionally, while we adore your little ones, for this special celebration, we’re keeping things adults-only. With activities like snorkeling, swimming, and time on the boat, this trip is best suited for grown-up fun. We truly appreciate your understanding and can’t wait to celebrate with you in paradise!

Beach Ceremony and Boat Party

11:45 am - 6:00 pm

Wear something that will be cute for photos AND you will be comfortable wearing on a boat all day! Flip flops and sandals encouraged. Bring or wear your bathing suit, hat, sunglasses, towel, sunscreen and anything else you will need for a day on the water. There will be changing space on the boat.

Join us for a romantic beach ceremony at the Langosta Beach Point (near Sueno Del Mar) at 12:00 noon, followed by a short photo session. Afterward, a shuttle will take us to Tamarindo Beach, where small boats will ferry us to the catamaran (image of boat at top of page) at 1:00 PM. Once aboard, enjoy delicious food, an open bar, and a 5-hour cruise filled with snorkeling, swimming, dancing, wildlife watching, and plenty of fun! We'll return to Tamarindo around 6:00 PM, just after sunset. Important Details: 1. Everyone is responsible for getting themselves to Point for the ceremony by 12PM. Wedding party to arrive at 11AM. 2. The ceremony is standing only, but will be brief. 3. This is an adventure cruise so expect to get wet! Snorkel and activity gear will be provided. 4. Shoes are not allowed on the catamaran. The crew will collect at boarding and return at the end. 5. Shuttle will depart from the ceremony location after photos and take us to the boat pickup spot.

Optional After Party and Dinner

7:30 pm - 11:45 pm

Casual Beach Party

After the catamaran cruise, the celebration doesn’t have to end! For those who want to keep the party going, we’re planning an optional after party and dinner. The idea is to grab a quick shower and change post-catamaran and reconvene for dinner around 7:30PM. We'll be making a reservation for the group, but attendance is optional and food and drinks will be available for purchase. It’ll be a fun, relaxed way to keep the good vibes going with music, food, drinks, and more. Feel free to join us or head back to your accommodation to rest up. Location to be determined closer to the date.
