The table numbers:
Numbers one-ten written out in Spanish. Each one has a different quote about the sea underneath.


Quotes:
If you want to know how much I love you, count the waves. -unknown

I dropped a tear in the ocean, and whenever they find it I will stop loving you, and only then. -unknown

All love that has not friendship for its base, is like a mansion built upon the sand. -Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Our memories of the ocean will linger on, long after our footprints in the sand are gone. -unknown

May your joys be as deep as the ocean, your sorrows as light as its foam.
-unknown

As the ocean is never full of water, the heart is never full of love.
-unknown

We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.
-Mother Teresa of Calcutta

The cure for anything is salt water- sweat, tears, or the sea.
-Isak Dinesen

Voyage upon life’s sea, to yourself be true, and, whatever your lot may be, paddle your own canoe. -Sarah Bolton

Live in the sunshine, swim in the sea, drink the wild air...
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

I wrote your name in the sky,
but the wind blew it away.
I wrote your name in the sand,
but the waves washed it away.
I wrote your name in my heart,
and forever it will stay.
-Jessica Blake

Susan when do you go for your fitting? We want to see what it looks like. It looked so amazing on you from the get go, you are going to look stunning.

I love everything. I like your starfish place cards. Do you have the template for that? I would love to borrow it. I wanted to put just a starfish instead of our logo cause our logo is on everything. So, I would love to use yours, not identical of course.

Great Job Susan!!!

OOT bottles:
Each 22 oz. bottle has our names, location, and date printed on it. We have one for each guest. They contain: after-sun aloe; lots of Pepto, Advil, etc; band-aids, travel candle, chapstick, Shout wipe, personalized matches, and a LiveStrong band (we donated to the organization in leiu of wedding favors because both his father and my aunt died of cancer).


There is also a "message" in each bottle:

There is a welcome letter, photoshare letter, and invite to meet-and-greet along w/ reminder times

Each bottle has a tag:
One side reads "You've joined us seaside (because invites reads "Please join us seaside") ¡Bienvenidos! Susan & Matt" and the other side has our logo.
