Oooo pretty! I have mine already but if not I would have bought this!

Great ideas, thanks, I was thinking of Blue Mountain Coffee (Jamaican specialty) but not sure how to store it. This is great though!

Wow, very cute, thanks for sharing!

Sent you a PM, I'm from Vancouver, BC in Canada though so I would need to know the shipping costs! Thanks!

Thanks for sharing! I will take a look at their products!

Thanks for the inspiration! Great job!

Wow! I wish I was so organized, thanks for the ideas. Much appreciated!

Great idea, I think we sometime forget that we have so much and it is nice to give back when we can.

Good one, thanks!

I also agree with Tracy, get them a small gift no matter what and write a nice card with regrets on missing there big day. If I was the cousin receiving the nice gift/card I would fell like sh*$ and that would be a nice punishment in itself.

Thanks!! I think there has been a few brides married there, try searching 'Coral Cove' under advanced search for 'Jamaica' and 'Wedding Reviews'. I think a review is also online under TripAdvisor. I looked into this location myself, they are really friendly and quick to reply to any questions you have and try hard to meet all your requests. They also have good pruices. I decided not to go with them though as they have limited capacity (I think it is around 40) and we are inviting 130 and have no idea how many will come. They also a few hours drive from the airport and have a lovely little beach 'coral cove' but no pool. Some of my guests are picky so I didn't want to risk it. Good luck!

I just want to seal some last minute details but I am realizing htat I may just have to wait until I get there. We have 85 people confirmed. Did you guys get married on the lazy river or the beach? Can't wait to see your pics!!!! WOW, the countdown is ON! What a great number of people. I'm sure your wedding will go smoothly- good luck and let us know how it goes!

Thanks for the heads up! I was actually looking into this site but I will do a bit of checking around now.

Goodluck! Let us know what you find out.

It may take me a little while because it's going to be long and I need to upload the pictures, but I'll try and have it within the week. In a nutshell, we had an absolutely fabulous time and so did our guests. The things that were most important to us actually exceeded our expectations (and they were pretty high to begin with). We truly feel that we could not have chosen a better place to have our wedding. Congrats! I'm happy everything went so well. Looking forward to your review and pics.

Any pics of the reception site "Uncle Tony's" would be great.

I think there are some posts for both of these with lots of info use the 'search' to find them or go under "Jamaica Accomodation/Site"

I'm seeing the pink heel with flowers but I'm worried they may be hard to walk in as I'm getting married on grass. I don't want to get stuck!

Oh ya, does anyone know of where to buy really pretty orange table runners? My theme is similiar to the tropical wedding look offered by Sandals so I am looking for this table runner Island Wedding: Martha Stewart Island Paradise Wedding Theme - Sandals Resorts)

They look great! I was thinking of something like that as I didn't want to be sprayed with popping sticky bubbles. I think I may use the freeze dried petal though.

I was quoted $65 per table for a 'Fruit' centrepiece so that sounds reasonable for flowers
