I'm wondering if I just gave all of them to the front desk, if they could hand them out when guests check in? yes, I thought about that, but I was going to give them at the welcome dinner, or have them sitting in their room when they first arrived, haven't decided yet....

after I jotted down your address, so I could stalk you.... lol!! I love them, they are really great! you are pretty crafty Miss Heidi!

One bag per couple with a travel mug for each person in the party ... and a separate "kiddie bag" for any youngsters. that is eactly what we are doing, I have asked all our guests to arrive the day after us, so I have time to put them all together for when they start arriving!!

I got the outer pocketfold with the invitation, Welcome Dinner Invite insert, reply card and reply card envelope. I also had them print the outer envelope adresses and return address on the back. I just did not want to deal with adressing them. The colors are ecru, chocolate brown and moss/sage. these are great, I love them...

I really wouldn't have a problem with this personally, my only concern would be the elderly, like you said, but as long as the ceremony isn't crazy long!!

In our family you can't do anything without everyone wanting bring food, so the original idea of church then going to dinner was scratched. My parents have a lovely backyard so we are now going to decorate it fiesta style and I wouldn't be surprised if there are more people there than at our Mexican wedding. So far, one friend in New York and one in New Orleans have bought tickets to fly to the 3rd wedding....and they were in Mexico for the 2nd. It's the never ending wedding.....but we aren't the type to turn down a good party so we're amped about the whole thing....lol! maybe I can go for a third!! lol!!

I'm going to hit the bridal shoppes over the next couple of weeks too. Best of luck and happy shopping! you too... post some pics as well...

But that's maybe what you can do ... a vow renewal/bbq ... that way it doesn't even have to be in a church / courthouse unless you want it to be. A notary can do it for next to nothing. great idea, thanks!!

I love it, that is an awesome picture, your guests will love that for their cards!!

here is what is left girls... 2 square, 1 oval, and 4 heart

Quote: Originally Posted by dragonfly I would love to buy 2 from you do you think they would arrive in time, I leave in less then 2 weeks. I could have you send them to my mom's house she leaves in 3 weeks, I think this would be a better plan. I like the oval one's, let me know if it's possible, pm me and let me know. Thanks Kelly~ same here, I am just sending them out, I can get it out as early as tomorrow, so send me your address...

Quote: Originally Posted by lizz10179 I was going to order some of those! I would probably need 4 b/c I want to put my dad's picture in my bouquet and my 3 sisters bouquets. How much are you selling them for? Send me a PM if they're still available. Thanks! I'm not selling them, they are freebies, just pm me with your address...

that is too cute!!!!

Quote: Originally Posted by JenandBrendanWedding I like the third one too. Can you find out if they can make the train shorter - most places can do that. But definitely keep looking. You won't have your dress until you see it on you and say, "OH MY GOD - THIS IS IT!!!" that is definitely what I am waiting for!!
