Everything we could've hoped for!
After looking at lots of photographers before our wedding, we both decided on Maciej as we fell in love with his photos. He was so easy to communicate with, very responsive and professional but also personable! We eloped so with me, my husband and our photographers spending half the day together, this was huge for us!...

Maciej was the most amazing photographer we could have asked for. He is incredibly passionate about his work and it shows in his beautiful photography. He was such a delight to work with and our wedding pictures were beyond what we could have thought they would be in our wildest dreams! He is highly professional, very responsive, and extraordinarily talented. We cannot recommend him highly enough.
Best Time to Visit
The best time to elope or have a wedding in Costa Rica is from December to May, which is the dry season. During these months, the weather is ideal for outdoor ceremonies, with clear skies and warm temperatures. However, even in the rainy season (June to November), elopements can be amazing! Afternoon showers often clear up for stunning sunsets, and you'll enjoy fewer crowds and off-season rates at many hotels and venues.
Variety of Landscapes and Locations
From beach elopements in Tamarindo and Santa Teresa to magical waterfall ceremonies at Llanos de Cortés and Bajos del Toro, Costa Rica offers diverse backdrops for your big day. You can choose a ceremony on a secluded beach, surrounded by tropical forests, or at a luxury resort with sweeping ocean views.
Adventure and Romance
Costa Rica is not just about beautiful wedding venues; it’s also a hub for adventure and romance. After your ceremony, enjoy activities like zip-lining through rainforests, soaking in hot springs, exploring waterfalls, or surfing world-famous waves. Your elopement can double as an unforgettable honeymoon filled with adventure and relaxation.
Legal, Symbolic, and Shamanic Ceremonies
In Costa Rica, you can choose from legal, symbolic, or shamanic ceremonies depending on your preferences. Whether you're looking to make your wedding legally binding, celebrate with a spiritual ceremony, or keep things simple with a symbolic gesture, Costa Rica offers all three options.
Ease of Travel
Costa Rica is easily accessible, with direct flights from many major cities. The country’s welcoming vibe, combined with its beautiful venues and friendly local vendors, makes planning your elopement or wedding a stress-free experience. Many top locations, such as Guanacaste or La Fortuna, are within a few hours' drive from international airports, making logistics easy for you and your guests.
