This may sound so incredibly lame, as we are going to DT for fun and sun, but my entire group of guests are huge football fans, and there is a big game on the Saturday night that we arrive. Does anyone know if there is a sports bar at the resort that can show ABC or ESPN?

Everything is now sale pending! I will update should anything become available. Thanks!

I have to say thanks again!!! I just made 50 of these, and they turned out so cute! I used ribbon, because I was too lazy to work with all that raffia, but they still look great. Thanks for the template and idea!

I have already promised the vases to someone, but if it doesn't work out you are next in line. Also, I am getting married at DT as well. I'm not sure, but maybe it would be possible to leave six of them for you down there? I am taking six myself. Possibly the wedding coordinators will hold them for you... My mom found these, I'll ask her where!

StarlitK - if you still check this thread, can you tell me if you used the binders for the LED throwies instead of the strapping tape, or in addition to the strapping tape? Also, did you just assemble these the morning of the wedding? How long did they stay lit? Thanks so much for all the help you have provided!!

I just punched a hole in the card, and tied the ribbon around the starfish. It stays pretty well, due to the 5 "arms" of the starfish. I am going to be sticking these in little mini pails of sand as well. Here's a closer picture so you can see how it's tied

Hi there! I have a few extra items for sale that I'm not going to be using. All prices do not include shipping. Thanks! First I have a whole bunch of plastic luggage tag loops. I am willing to split these up, 10 for $1. I have a couple hundred, so just let me know how many you need. I'll ship these via mail, so shipping shouldn't be more than $1. Next I have ten decks of cards (5 packages of two). $4 for all ten. 14 finger starfish, 2-3" in size. I added one of my own in the picture so you can see how I am using them. $7 I have six of these silver vases. These are PLASTIC, so they are wonderful for transporting! They are about 7.25 inches tall, and the opening at the top is appx 4", the base is about 3.75". I am using these to make my own centerpieces. The faux flowers are not included. $24 for all six or $5 each. I will give preference to someone taking all six. I also have some silver starfish charms, but forgot to count them. I'll add these tonight or tomorrow morning. Thanks for looking!! Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you! The polka dot outfit was just from Victoria's Secret!

Wonderful photos!!

I was going to put one on every seat before the ceremony...but I guess just giving them to the women is an option as well. Then would I give the men anything?

Hi there! I am short a couple of raffia fans due to some last minute additions to our wedding. Does anyone have 2-5 extras they would want to sell me? I'm trying to avoid having to purchase a dozen + shipping from OTC. These are the ones I'm looking for : Refreshing Fans Thanks for your consideration!!

Those look great!!!!

Oh my gosh, those look awesome!! I just purchased those lilies last night to make centerpieces! Can you share how many of each flower you used? Great job!!

Nor did I ever hear anything from Jacilynda. Those of you that were in this same passing group may now want to find a new group since there is now no starfish to be passed. Those of you who are in other passing groups, please honor your commitment to passing it on. It is such a disappointment to us that have now been excluded from enjoying this fun connection with each other. Please be considerate of those who follow behind you on the list. I am sad that I will not get to be a part of this but will not let it spoil a minute of this exciting time. I'm sorry you didn't get the starfish That is disappointing. Have a wonderful wedding!!!!

Just wanted to say I'm sorry Stacy that you didn't get the pants. I would definitely file with Paypal, as I think they have a time limit for how long you can file claims. It appears that the same person did not pass on her starfish from the Starfish passing thread

I was just looking at those last night! I found a video series somehow, but they are with fresh flowers. Not sure if you are looking for fresh or artificial. Anyway, the series of videos can be found at "Hydranging" a Wedding Centerpiece - MonkeySee They don't show that exact centerpiece, but she put the large green leaves around the rose centerpiece I believe. And created a hydrangea centerpiece as well. Hope this helps!

I am trying to figure out the same thing! I asked FI, do you think people will know this is a luggage tag without me adding a little saying? I am sending it with our pre-trip brochure, but feel like it needs a little something else...

I think the images are adorable! Well done!

They had these in blue and ivory too at my Target, so I cleaned them out of the blue. Definitely worth a look for these, they are a great deal! They are 12 inches...

Thank you all so much! I am so excited to give this to him as a gift he will love forever! I am recommending boudoir photos to all of my friends. What guy wouldn't love pics of his girl?!

K'osh, that is so cute! Great idea girls, and wow, that was quick delivery, lol!!

I received my BD book and DVD yesterday and wanted to post a review of the wonderful photographer who did them! Kara Schultz from Karatography did my boudoir pictures in a marathon at the end of August, and she was wonderful!! I could not be happier with how they turned out. I am going to post a smattering here, but ladies, I received a DVD with over 150 full resolution edited photos! I LOVE them, and better yet, my FI is going to die when he receives the book the morning of our wedding! I can’t recommend her enough, for any of you Chicago area brides!

Someone let me know if they have clarified that that is what they mean please.... OK, I got a response from Anabel... My question was: First, we are using the Wedding in Paradise package, but would like to arrange dinner after the ceremony at one of the pool terraces. We were told this could be arranged, and would have to pay $20/person for the dinner. From what menu do we select their $20 dinner? Is it a set menu, or do they order what they wish from servers? Her answer was:You have to select the menu of one of our restaurant outside and also have to pay the private event (750dlls) for have in one of our terrace because in your package you don’t have included the private event. The other way is that if you don’t want to pay the private event you can have the set menu in one of the restaurant but will be another guest and you can’t play music . Again, this is for the Wedding in Paradise (free) package. I will email her back to see if she can send me the menus.

However, there was a charge to have it el patio and seaside grill. This is in conjunction with the free package. Are you using the Dreams of Love or Ultimate package? I don't think you have to pay extra for an outdoor reception with either of those.

Quote: Originally Posted by carmen2009 I'm confused about a couple of things too. They sent me an email responding that i could only use the $20 menu if I had the reception at one of the resturants. From the email, it sounded like that wasnt an option if you wanted to have a reception at the pool. I dont know.....JoAnn have you decided on a reception location yet? It is all so confusing!! Landy's email to me back in February said: IN RELATION WITH YOUR QUESTION PLEASE CHECK MY ANSWER Advise if dinner is available on the beach or poolside for 30-40 guests? THERE IS AND EXTRA CHARGE OF 750 USD PER EVENT, BECAUSE THERE IS NOT INCLUDED THIS FEE IN THE PACAKGE FOR SET UP Advise if pricing is correct (10 ppl free, $20/person for additional 20-30 guests)? NO, THE 20 USD PER PERSON PLUS SERVICE AND TAX, WOULD BE FOR EACH PEOPLE IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A SET MENU AND JUST PAY THE 20 USD PER PERSON THE OPTION CAN BE AT THE BALLROOM BUT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT OUTSIDE THERE IS AN EXTRA FEE 750 USD FOR SET UP PLUS THE 20 USD PER PERSON Kind regards Landy Cahum Reyes Coordinadora de Bodas Dreams Tulum Resorts & Spa Tel.: 011(52) 984 - 8.71.33.33, Fax: 011(52) 984 - 8.71.33.53 [email protected] Dreams Resorts & Spas: Unlimited Luxury
