I think they look great. Are you going to just bring the bottles and fill them with sand when you get to Jamaica?

Very cute! I would definitely fill them when you get to Jamaica though due to weight. Just an FYI though - it is technically illegal to bring sand back through customs (some girls have had problems with sand ceremony bottles). Shouldn't be a problem, but good to know about...

Those are WAY cute! I did MIB glass invites that turned out very cute. Glass may be too heavy to carry to Mexico, especially if you have to make room for centerpieces ect. I went to Hobby lobby in the Jewelry section and found mini glass bottles with corks that are necklace size. They were on sale for 2 for $1.00. I bought black cord and will fill them with sand for the guests.

You are such a creative wonder! I love everything you have done. I also want to thank you for pointing me in the right direction to get flowers for my bouts. They came out pretty good.

Those look really cute, it might get heavy but I wouldn't worry too much about it if you already bought the glass ones.
