My family is very Catholic and traditional to say the least.
Leia that sounds like it will be beautiful and work the best.

I asked the same thing. The boarding pass invite looks like a boarding pass and you can put all of your info on it. There is a great forum on invites and they have some cute pictures. Check out the forum. If I wasn't sitting on a plane I would look up the names of the girls that have them posted in their sigy. Got to turn the phone off now! Bummer!

It's $24 for each time they set up. So if you have a reception somewhere else from where you get married it's another $24/person.

ok, after MUCh delay I am finally updating my list. I need to do it to help me maintain a healthy level of sanity! wacko.gif

 

so here's what i started with, WAY back when! it looks like nothing...

Wedding date: June 22, 2008, ceremony 5:00 pm

Ceremony: Gazebo

Cocktail Hour: on beach after the ceremony

Music: Would like Mariachis for the ceremony & cocktail hour-Mexican trio booked through my WC

Reception: Cascade Terrace

food for reception: appetizer: Crab cake w/ avocado dressing

salad: mixed lettice salad w/ cherry tomato

main course: beef tenderloin w/ julienne vegetables OR penne pasta with shrimp and scallops

dessert: tulip of strawberry with vanilla ice cream

cake: probably just get whatever comes w/ Dreams package

Wedding Cordinator: Mariana at Dreams and Katie Thompson from Weddings in Paradise

 

what i have added/done:

colors: fuscia and lime green (because i saw so many great ideas from other brides in this color scheme)

booked photographer, Joel Maus Wedding Photography and Portraits by Eckman Maus Photography he is a friend of a friend so he is giving us a GREAT deal. He's here is So Cal and will coming to Cabo to shoot the wedding. He will also take us around Cabo the day after the wedding to do some candid shots

 

bought my dress, waiting for it to come in

 

booked rehearsal dinner at Pancho's

 

booked all travel for FI and I, room block secured through TA Tammy

sent out invites, you can view my invites on this thread My Prim & Pixie Invitations Arrived (pics)

Hair & Make-up booked through WC

DJ: Arturo Ortiz, booked through WC and cigar roller also booked through WC

 

Flowers: we will be using the Flower Cart as that's who WIP uses. My boquet will be white & green cymbidium orchids with ivory roses. the bridesmaids will be fuchsia roses with green cymbidium orchids and green button mums. I'll have to post photos in a "flowers" thread.

 

Centerpieces: drowned cymbidium orchids in a large glass cylinder with a floating candle on top, 4 small pink votives around the base of the tall cylinder. ivory tablecloths with lime green table runner and fuchsia napkins at each place setting. the napkins will be folded around a menu card. i'll have to post pics of this stuff too when i have more time.

 

 

Still need to do:

(pretty much everything for the OOT bags)

Order canvas totes, plan on buying from cheap totes

Order custom koozies, luggage tags, travel sizes of pepto, immodium, advil for bags-i DID make it to my local Target to snatch up the Spanish Phrases for Dummies though :)

Find wedding day shoes

Print menus

Order votives for centerpieces

Decide on & buy favors

Pick out and purchase groom/groomsmen attire

Order guestbook (Adesso Polaroid book, already have camera & film)

Buy wedding day shoes

Get wedding bands

 

:SIGH: you know when I see it all on paper it doesn't look so bad! It actually makes me feel a lot better!
