For the romantics on board! Please help.
 
Hi!

I am looking for terms of endearment, Costa Rican love expressions, or Spanish love quotes for something I am planning for my husband (just married in CR). I haven't had much luck on google. I'm getting a poster done of the night sky on the night we were married in Vera Blanc. I'm looking for sayings to add on as a message. Thanks for your help!

Or you may want to try this site
www.freetranslation.com

Send me what you want to say in English and I can get my two assistants to translate, one's Mexican and the other's Panamanian so between them it will probably be close to Costa Rican!!!!!

Be careful using freetranslation.com - it could give you embarrasing results - it's good for getting the gist of something but not great at translating idioms...

Cheers,
Andrew

As Andrew kindly points out, and I strongly agree, do NOT use computer translators for this kind of thing. It can have inappropriate or even embarrassing results.
