4 Great Places to Take Photos for Your Costa Rica Wedding

Photographs hold the key to unlocking our memories. Your Costa Rica wedding photos will be the ones you cherish the most, capturing moments you’ll want to share with others time and time again. With Costa Rica as the incredible backdrop for your wedding day, there are plenty of opportunities for equally stunning photos.

THE BEACH

Manuel Antonio’s emerald waters and golden sands are both romantic and ethereal, making the beach one of the best wedding photo spots in Costa Rica. During your stay at our estate, you’ll have direct access to some of Manuel Antonio’s remarkable beaches for your photography session and, if you choose, your ceremony. Our proximity to Manuel Antonio National Park also allows you to make one of the world’s greatest national parks a backdrop to your wedding day.

Insider Scoop:

There are innumerable beautiful locations and angles on the beach for the ideal backdrop. We recommend just behind the palm line on the beach with views of the dramatic Cathedral Point Isthmus. This vantage point gives you all the best features of Costa Rica—sea, sand and Cathedral Point—to create the ideal scenic wedding photography spot in Costa Rica.

THE RAINFOREST

Manuel Antonio’s lush rainforests are yet another beloved feature of Costa Rica’s coastline. The Villa Punto de Vista Estate is located where the jungle meets the sea, so your wedding photos can capture the incredible flora and fauna of the region. While this rainforest only covers 0.03% of the Earth’s surface, it encompasses 5% of the planet’s biodiversity.

Let the landscape reflect the adventure you are set to embark on as you say, “I do,” and keep a close eye out for some of the exotic wildlife during your photography session. Monkeys, sloths and tropical birds are often mingling in the canopy.

Capture more of the rainforest’s magnificence with a waterfall nestled in the rainforest. Tocori Waterfall and Nauyaca Falls are both close to our estate and make for a truly showstopping environment for wedding photos.
