Not sure what resort you'll be at, but the supermarket in the Blue Diamond plaza (east of the airport, across from the new RIU and the Burger King) has small burlap bags of blue mountain coffee, mini liquor bottles, small rum cakes, and lots of snack foods and candies that are traditional Jamaican brand items that will make your OOT bags more authentic and unique than the ones just just contain your typical stuff like mosquito repellant, sunscreen, etc. Blue Diamond is easily spotted off the main road and is very clean and organized. Plus you won't have to worry about haggling with vendors, and is a one stop shop for everything you could want. In the same plaza is a pharmacy that has a few other souvenier type items as well....again, a local store so very cheap. Good luck! Thank you for the suggestion and the clear directions. With so much to remember it will be nice to just pick up the items and drop them in the bags before the guests start coming in. I wanted to have everything ready but i would much rather the luggage space.

Welcome... I'm new to the forum also... You will find lots of ideas. Everyone has been so nice. You'll love the forum. Congrats!

Have you thought about how we would transport the frame back home? Definitely would shift in luggage. Is there only a restriction on liquid for airplanes?

Okay, so now that I know what TTD means... here's what I think. The pictures that I've seen are creative and intimate. I agree that dress can be dry cleaned and mended if something were to happen to it. I love taking pictures so I will definitely be looking into to TTD.

love the program... how will you transport the vases?

An awesome idea... a great keepsake! Thanks for sharing.

Very professional!!! Great job.

Thanks for sharing. You did an awesome job!!

I'm not alone!Knowing that.. I feel better and motivated. I have... applied for Melanie's passport (my 5 month old baby) ordered my dress sent STD magnets created wedding website decided what will be in the OOT bags paid for airline tickets Most important so far... Picked the right guy and joined BDW for some help and much needed guidance.

Chantelle has not contacted me yet. and time is flying...

I am such a procrastinator. Wedding is in one month and I have so much to do. I thought the on-site WC would contact me but I guess I need to get the ball rolling. After reading the post I'm not sure where I can see photos from the photographer everyone uses. I need to confirm my wedding & reception time... such a slacker.

Beautiful fonts... Thanks

They look professional... Great job

I've just gotten into a creative mood. Thanks for the resource.

For those who elected not to have a bridal party... Did you have/ Are you planning someone walk you done the aisle?

Pardon what might be a dumb question... what does TTD mean?

Love the "your presence is our present" going to add that to my site. The memories of family and friends supporting you will out last towels and toasters.

Still learning to navigate through the forum- thanks for the direction

I was thinking about being non-traditional and having the guests (20-25 family and friends) wear all white to my wedding. My friends say they would become bridezillas if their guests wore white. But I figure its an island...Jamaica... I envision cottons and linen... IRIE MON! Would you allow guests to wear white to your wedding? Is it rude to request your guest to dress a certain way... after they have come so far? (BTW...My dress is ivory)
