I think tons of us have experienced the post-wedding blues. It's not that we are unhappy with are life in any way - it's just that it was SO fun planning! Have you organized your wedding pics yet? Or maybe start thinking of a new project you can work on. Do you have any hobbies? Anyways there is another thread about this http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t37921 just so you know you are not alone! I totally understand!

What do you think of this Favor?
Betsy replied to Lillie09's topic in Wedding Registry, Wedding Gift Bags, and OOT bags
I bought those small albums with a little starfish on them on eBay. I got a box of like 30 I think - and it was a really good deal, less than $1/album. Instead of using them in my OOT bags though I sent them out as thank you's to our guests w/ a few pics of us from the wedding and a Thank You letter too. Everyone LOVED them! -
I had my shower on Sunday

heads up: nice OOT bag on ebay!
Betsy replied to cougs's topic in Wedding Registry, Wedding Gift Bags, and OOT bags
I got some awesome stuff on eBay for my OOT bags! I just searched for "lot chapstick", "lot suntan lotion", etc. I got a box of little suntan lotions w/ a string around them for super cheap and like 20 chapsticks for 11.99 or something and tons of purell hand sanitizer too! I love eBay!! -
There is also a little bottle of wine delivered to your room the day of your wedding, with 2 strawberries, one with white chocolate, and the other w/ dark chocolate (aka the bride and the groom) and on the plate it says Congratulations or something written in chocolate sauce..........I have a pic of it on here somewhere....... And breakfast in bed the next day is awesome! We ordered mimosas and they were SO good!

finds at Target
Betsy replied to 1sunshine's topic in Wedding Registry, Wedding Gift Bags, and OOT bags
Disposable camera's for $1! My 6 yr old LOVES taking pics - I should check those out - they would probably make really fun birthday party favors too! -
Are you wanting to scrapbook it yourself? Otherwise Photo Books, Cards & Stationery, and Photo Share Sites | Shutterfly does make photobooks - and you can pay for rush shipping too. Might be a little expensive though. Do you have any other craft stores in your area - like Hobby Lobby or something? Maybe even Wal-mart or Target might have some smaller books.......
