A Tropical Paradise without the Passport

A Tropical Paradise without the Passport


There's more to this island than San Juan's metro area and that's the bonus waiting that most travelers never bother taking advantage of - beautiful beaches, a mountainous middle, the rain forest and caves. There's the arid south and northern gold coast - all dotted with small towns and villages; locals eager to make a guest feel at home.
Puerto Rico's size is 100 by 35 miles - small enough to get anywhere in less than half a day; large enough to keep you occupied once you get there.
Nowhere else in the world will you find little green tree frogs called "el Coqui". They're the pride of Puerto Ricans; frog replicas often appearing on island merchandise. You'll never see Coqui, but at night they'll sing you to sleep in a heavenly concerted effort.
Salsa is the island's music. General movements appear all but choreographed in rhythm to this infectious Latin beat that's played everywhere.
Get ready to join the party! Puerto Ricans know how to live life to the fullest. When finished with a hard day's work, they're ready to relax and spend time with people in this culture driven by socialization.
Quick Tips:
Puerto Rico is an excellent "breaking in" destination for travelers wanting to explore the Caribbean. If you don't like or aren't comfortable with what you find here, I wouldn't recommend other islands.
The island offers all the creature comforts of home in addition to favorite shops/eateries including Wal-Mart Supercenters, Tony Roma's ribs. Such Americanization can be a blessing or curse when searching for "authentic" experience. Places can have a Florida feel.
In San Juan, you can survive without speaking a word of Spanish. English also can usually suffice in most countryside establishment unless you're looking to "get real" with the locals.
Currency is U.S., but doesn't go very far. Cost of living is high in PR. It's also been passed along to the booming tourist industry; prices sky-rocketing across the board over the last few years.
If you base island exploration from the capital, don't get sucked into the exciting, relaxing, carefree atmosphere. (Read my San Juan journal to find out just how good it is!) I've squandered many plans, intentions here. Likely you will, too!
The tourism board I reference can be reached at 800-233-6530 or www.prtourism.com". Branch offices are located in NYC/LA/MIAMI.
Best Way To Get Around:
Domestic carriers fly to San Juan-(SJU) daily; AirTran Airline, Blue Jet, United, American Airlines among others. East coast flights are inexpensive; less than round-trip with advance purchase traveling Tuesday-thru-Thursday. Midwest/West coast travelers - ask agents to "break" rates between departure city and the east, and your connecting flight to PR for often cheaper rates.
SJU is connections hub for other Caribbean destinations. Flights fill up quick! Book early while dates/rates are available.
International & Local car rental agencies are found everywhere; competition driving prices down. Weekly rentals are cheapest; day deals often below including tax/insurance.


Five "Tourist Routes"/interstates conveniently cover the island; secondary roads also in good condition. Back roads are treacherous. Be prepared for flats.
Maps! Gave up, threw them in the backseat, and simply followed instincts. PR maps are poor; not one of them the same. Roads dead-end in the middle of nowhere; principal through ways nowhere to be found. If you're looking for adventure, have any sense of direction - Go with It! PR's not big...you can't get that lost!

Why Choose The Caribbean Island Of Puerto Rico For Your Destination Wedding?

Why Choose The Caribbean Island Of Puerto
Rico For Your Destination Wedding?


Puerto Rico Offers an Inclusive Caribbean Island Experience
Puerto Rico is a tropical paradise for all types of travel. Puerto Rico’s 272 miles of pristine beach coast make it a top wedding destination in the Caribbean. Its exotic beaches, diverse sites and spectacular settings make Puerto Rico the perfect host for your Caribbean wedding since it provides activities for all your guests, from the leisure sunbathers, to the nature lovers and adventure travelers. The island offers, among other things:
• Miles of sandy white beaches, cavernous cliffs and forests for hiking, horseback riding, and other activities
• More than twenty championship golf courses
• Unique coral reefs, caves, sea walls, and trenches, for scuba diving and snorkeling
• Best conditions for surfing and wave-sailing sports
• Old San Juan, a unique and charming colonial settlement and the oldest city under the United States’ flag
• El Yunque, the only rainforest in the US National Park System
• Guanica Dry Forest, an unusual tropical forest inhabited by many types of plants and animals unique to Puerto Rico
• Rio Camuy Cave Park, the third-largest cave system in the world
• Three of the six bioluminescent bays in the world

Travel to Puerto Rico is Convenient – No Passport necessary for American Citizens
While it’s rich history, unique culture and beauty make it feel like a world away;
• Puerto Rico is part of the USA; therefore traveling to the island is for all purposes like traveling to or within the continental United States. No visas, passports or immunizations are necessary for United States & Canadian citizens visiting Puerto Rico. Aliens not traveling from the continental United States are required to have a valid passport and an appropriate U.S. visa.
• Puerto Rico offers convenient access with several direct flights daily from many U.S. cities
• The currency In Puerto Rico is the U.S. dollar

Puerto Rico provides a Cultural Experience Right Next Door
Puerto Rico is blessed historically, culturally and aesthetically. With over 500 years of African, Taino, and Spanish heritage, the island maintains a characteristically Latin personality. Puerto Rico is an interesting mix of tropical island life and developed infrastructure. Puerto Ricans take pride in the purity of their island, and even in the overdeveloped capital of San Juan, the beaches are unspoiled.
Puerto Rico is a small tropical volcanic island, 100 miles long by 35 miles wide, but is a continent of its own. The island is divided into three main geographic regions: 1) golden coast plains; 2) a mountainous interior which rises to more than 3,000 feet above sea level and hosts breathtaking ocean and green mountain views; 3) and a northern plateau, home of interesting caves, rocky landscapes and also home to El Yunque, the only rainforest in the United States National Park System.
The capital, San Juan, is filled with sightseeing attractions, top-rated resorts, excellent restaurants, vibrant nightlife and luring casinos. Visitors are often especially attracted to Old San Juan. Its Spanish colonial architecture, history-filled cobblestone streets, and outdoor cafes, restaurants and shops maintain a quaint European feel. Outside the San Juan area lays the best hidden Puerto Rican secret. Small towns, quiet seaside restaurants and deserted golden beaches are reflective of Puerto Rico’s Spanish Mediterranean heritage.
Puerto Rico Climate – The Endless Summer
Puerto Rico’s climate is pleasant year round. Although summer highs can hit 95 degrees Fahrenheit, temperatures typically range from 77-90 degrees, depending on the time of year and the coastal winds. Rainy season is May through November and the average annual rainfall is 62 inches. Although Puerto Rico is susceptible to tropical storms and hurricanes from June to November, only five major hurricanes have hit the island in the last 50 years, all of them in the months of August and September.

Wedding Flowers Tips

Flowers

The Bridal bouquet should complement the bridal gown. The Bridesmaids bouquets should coordinate with the dresses worn by the bridesmaids.
The groom traditionally pays for the bridal bouquet, all the boutonnieres (except his own), the corsages and the rehearsal dinner flowers. The Bride’s bouquet is traditionally made of white flowers such as stephanotis, orchids, roses, lilies of the valley, gardenias, carnations, or sweet peas. Included are fillers like baby’s breath, ferns or ivy for greenery. The traditional bouquet should be carried low so as not to hide the details of your dress. The groom’s boutonniere should be different from the groomsmen’s. You should arrange to have a toss away bouquet made for the bouquet tossing and make arrangements to have your bouquet preserved. The meaning of flowers:

Rose - Love

White Daisy - Purity

Gardenia - Joy

Orchard - Beauty

Carnation - Distinction

Blue Violet - Constancy

Forget Me Not - True Love

Red Chrysanthemum - Sharing

Lily of the Valley - Happiness

White Lilac - Youthful Innocence
