Love love love love love my flowers!!! I purchased them off of etsy.com The seller is FentonFlorals. They are polymer clay flowers and they look so real it is ridculous! She can create ANYTHING you dream up of! She is doing all of my flowers!!!! def check her out!!!!! And You KEEP THEM FOREVER!!!!! You can not bring flowers off the island so I see no point in paying $300 for a bouquet.. that is what I was quoted at to see and use for one day and then have to throw away. With the clay flowers, you have them forever!!! Winnie- We are extending our reception from 30 minutes to either 2 or 3 hours not sure yet and I have no clue where that is held. My WC said on some sort of private porch/deck overlooking the ocean... works for me!! Are you using their photographer? I booked Tropical Imaging to take us off property for some amazing pics! Can not wait. Ileana wil be taking our photos along with my boudoir photos!! I have also booked a massage for FI and I couple days before wedding and the private candlelit dinner on the beach the day after the wedding! SO excited! So happy to have found some TC BEaches brides!!

thanks everyone!!! I really love how Aimee from creative montage did everything I could have ever dreamed of!!

Melissa that is too funny!! Its two of my great friends bday as well. One of them actually just passed away, and Im glad my day can be shared with their special days! The other one actually got married on my bday this past jan 1.9 and so I decided hey I like her bday its an easy day for FI to remember 1.23.!!!

Im getting married at Beaches Turks and Caicos! I have hired an outside photographer, who is not allowed on property, so they will be taking us off property. We will also be adding a 2 hr reception with apps and open bar. dj etc. We will also be doing the sand ceremony. Im going to purchase some ala carte pictures, you do not have to hire a beaches photographer if you do not want to. they still pics everywhere and all the time. I will be purchasing the video for sure! And that is a recommendation from other brides as well. All of my flowers are being done before hand (clay) and I will be bring them down. Sandals or Beaches DO NOT ALLOW anything to be shipped prior to your arrival! Be aware of that! We got a pretty great deal for our concierge level room and I have been told you should call once a month to see if they have reduced prices and they will change yours. I have already had my rate dropped once by $300!!

Love the poem! I got all my jars at walmart for some super great prices!!! Now Just need some scoops and candy lol!! The place I want to order candy from is trying to use and abuse me on shipping costs because its summeR!

aww thanks! I accidentally wrote "cake" instead of "candy" in the header! Im an idiot.

Momx2- hey yes we we have chosen to do the pictures before because there just wont be enough time to gather everyone, leave the resort, take pictures and be back in time for our reception. So we are doing pictures for 3-4 hours in the midmorning, come back around 3pm freshen up and get married at 4pm, reception @5pm I believe! Is it just you, your FI, and your two children going? I think the reception they include will be perfect for you guys!! I think you are ok with not making it costly. Its all included. I believe the ceremony lasts 20-30 mins. And I am doing the sand ceremony as well!! Cant wait!!! Hope to hear from you soon. I love knowing other people are getting married there. Our friends were married there as well and loved it!!!

thank you! thank you!

So as favors I am doing a candy buffet for our Almost Married reception before our wedding this august! Just wondering if anyone else is doing this and where you are getting your candy from? I found a place and I really like them but it wont let me do normal shipping because its going to be too hot in CT and UT!!! I think its nuts that they want me to do the 2 or 4 day shipping for an extra $200.. its still going to be hot... ITS FRIGHIN' SUMMER!!!!!!! I made a sign for the table and this is what it looks like... our kitten trying to help... not so much!!!!

Our "ALMOST MARRIED" reception invites and envelopes!

OUr Save the dates!

All work is done by Aimee @ www.creativemontage.com she is amazing!!!!! Our monograms:

Love the inspiration boards! I need to make one! Mine is navy blue and pink as well!!

love love love this thread! love these ideas!

Yah I looked at ebay, Im just not sure what to type in the search!

Im a turks and caicos bride too!! January 2010. can not wait!

CrystalM- Hey! That is what I did for the earrings. The top 3 diamonds are from a different pair of earrings and the two pendants are from the necklaces. So it was a little pricey for the earrings, because I bought one pair of earrings, and the two necklaces plus a $35 fee to make something new. so over $1000 for the earrings. SO If I did that for a bracelet we would be looking pretty steep.. yikes :/

oh my gosh thank you so much you guys!! I have checked etsy, Im completely addicted to it. And can not find what Im looking for. I feel like I have checked all obvious places. And not finding what I want. I dont really have a budget, just do not want my bracelet to cost more than my wedding Im going to look at all the sites you all have suggested!!!

surgery #1- tonsils surgery #2- elbow surgery with scope (took 6 yrs for this to happen!) surgery #3- wisdom teeth surgery #4,#5,#6- toe abosultely horribly painful!!!!! I need another one too! surgery #7- lap band I feel like Im forgetting something. I do hope surgery #8 will be a boob job FH maybe buying them for me before wedding.. yay! would look great in boudoir photos!!!

OK these are my earrings!

where did you purchase your starfish embellishment for your bouquet? thannks!!

I love the starfish idea!!! love love love it! and found some great websites that sell the star fish for super duper cheap!!! I may be using them for our "almost married" reception in CT as place cards!! super cute! I love everyones input, thank you so much!!!

hey everyone!!! I have been searching HIGH AND LOW and I am having absolutely no luck finding a matching bracelet for my earrings!!! I need help. Im looking for bling, pave looking diamonds, swarovski, cz's whatever. Jewelry from Kay Jewelers, the Jewelry Store for Engagement and Wedding Rings, Diamonds and More this is my necklace. It will not let me upload a picture of my earrings!! frustrating!!

everything is amazing!!! I love it all!!!!

I agree with future mrs.griffith. See if she can hold the date until she does get her new merchant stuff. I mean cash is cash there is no documentation of it. I think it is a little iffy and I would be concerned.
