Hi, Does anyone have the template in power point? I searched and could only find ones in Microsoft word format. Thanks, Carla

Sarah of Sproullie Designs does amazing work!! She is actually a member on here.

I have a thread I keep updating with a current list of OOT bag items. I am going to have to have a mod edit this for me now

I would love to see them if you do. Also if you hear back from Xcaret you will let us know right?

We are doing tan and orange. You could do accents of green to then and it would match the bird of paradise you like.

We are using yellowish-orange and tan with accents of hot pink. I agree with you I didn't want to much hot pink.

I am from Kalamazoo too!!! Where are you having your AHR? We are smacking our heads against the wall trying to find a place in January.

FI has been in contact with her though and is now on the mailing list for updates.

I felt very overwhelmed until we got out TA. He has been just amazing in helping use weed out resorts.

Awesome! I like #1 the best. Carla

Thanks for posting this questions. I see a lot of DW brides doing the group excursions before the wedding. Is that because most people leave after the wedding? Ours is going to be on a Saturday so I was thinking about doing the excursion on Monday after the wedding...

I've heard that some do this as a thank you in advance for taking care of you and your cabin all week. If so, what are you planning to bring? Thanks! To be blunt, they would rather have cash with a thank you card. Small rooms make it hard to keep a lot of things.

I saw these same ones at Ikea, we bought them to use as spice jars! If you wanted to print your own stickers for the top you could save a lot of money by getting them Ikea.

Hi, I started a thread and all the girls keep asking to have it as a sticky. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t28059 I tried to purchase the option to sticky a thread but it said that I am not allowed to buy that for the forum. Can someone help me understand what I need to do to get the thread sticky'ed? Thanks, Carla

Here is what I am looking at doing:

Include pics of the two of you with the respective family members and most people will get the gist. That is a good idea. I really wanted to do this and maybe I can add some wedding and some non-wedding of our families.

Quote: Originally Posted by Tlseege As for the requirements, there was someone on our boat who got married there, and yes... they both had to do the paperwork. Make it easy on yourself and do the legal stuff back home. Then you won't be rushing all over. Time in port goes so quickly and you need to make sure you are back on the boat on time.

Quote: Originally Posted by Pug3636 What did you do in Grand Cayman? We are on Freedom of the Seas and that stop is the day after our wedding. Any recommendations? Sting Ray Snorkeling. They take you out to a sand bar on the north side of grand caymen where sting rays gather. They are very friendly and will eat right out of your hand. And don't worry these stingrays are small and have never hurt anyone. We have such great pictures from there.

Quote: Originally Posted by Morgan yeah it should be good for all regions of mexico. I did not know there was an approval process. I think she meant to make sure they are not on the ban list. some local photographers in the area are banned from karisma. No I mean you need to contact the WC before hand and get an "approval". Just something in writing, even just an email, that say that you are OK'ed to come. I read where this happened to someone else and in the end the photog was allowed but only after a lot of stress and grief.

Quote: Originally Posted by catandcleo ooh - another few to add (thanks to another thread) - travel sewing kit and safety pins. Maybe also some double sided tape - hey, ya never know! Thanks! I added them to the list. Now you have me thinking about making a little emergency clothing repair kit with those kind of things in them. Would go great with the little first aid kit.

Quote: Originally Posted by drbrainfreeze I received free samples of both silk and freezedried - both are really nice! I would check them out. Their prices are really reasonable. I have not compared them to other companies but I think that the value and quality is good. Which did you decide to go with, the silk or freeze dried?

Here's a couple I have seen that might be what your looking for: Quote: We've Eloped! For further details you must attend A/AN EVENT in our honor on DAY at TIME LOCATION ADDRESS CITY, STATE BRIDE and GROOM (Mr. and Mrs. COUPLE) My favorite: Quote: Well, folks, she finally got her hooks into him! Jenny Smith and Michael Jones were married on Saturday, June Seventh Two thousand and eight at a ocean side wedding. The parents of the couple, (fill in blank), suggest you mark your calendar and bring your fishing gear for a reception in their honor. (add info here)

This is a great reminder for items still needed. Thanks Keep checking back as I keep adding. I am guessing other people will be doing this to so I will start putting a last edited date on there to help. Carla

We actually bumped our date back a month into December and are now in the low season. I say get a TA and see what they say. They might have some suggestions for somewhere in the states like North Carolina. Beautiful beaches!!
