They have both light pink and fuchsia! YAY!!!! how awesome is this? The County Clerk was very quick, Hubby and I were both casual and didn't take anyone with us. We were trying to do this pre-mexico but ran out of time, so we did it the 1st Friday we were back. It was great! The judge asked if wanted something special and we said no since we were just in Mexico. It took us 1/2 hour to get out of there as they all wanted to see our pictures.. LOL Have fun and if I don't speak with you before you travel. Have a BLESSED wedding and wishing you safe travels.

And just when I thought I was finished! I found a picture that I took of Hubby's drink stirrers for the reception. If you look at this "Signature Drink" template the saying's match. Since, my new last name was going but is now WRIGHT, I used that to play up the name. Again I made 75 of these as well

Awesome Blujaye, Thanks again for your purchase. If you can please click on the +2 by my name and leave positive feedback I would appreciate it.

Hola ladies, I finally was able to post as much of a "final planning thread" that I'm going to do, alogn with tons of template. You will find these on pages 18 & 19! Now if I can only figure out how to change the name of my thread I would be great. Happy Planning

LAST POST TEMPLATES ONLY I didn't use these at all... due to printing and I simply did not want to cut anymore... So I used our brochure instead THE END FINI Name That Drink.pdf PreTravel Boading Pass.doc

The "WRIGHT" Wedding Cast Flower Girls, MOH, BM's and the Gentlemen including my son the ring bearer and my uncle who walked me down the aisle

MORE INFO and templates Okay.... my son was the only boy and sat at table 1. For him I did (not pictured) His nickname in painted Blue letters for his place setting which read JAY. He also had a Marvel coloring book, crayons, Marvel stickers and a thank you card with $20 in it. A thank you card was included as he had to deal with me and all my DIY stuff over the house etc... and he also helped out from time to time especially when it came to the glue gun and heat gun. Here are other templates/pictures of things I forgot to mention: CEREMONY DIY (Only Fan programs) No template used. These were placed in opposite color on every seat Ring bearer shell Cake Table (Vendors mentioned in the beginning of the forum) Sand Ceremony Table at the ceremony

CONTINUED FROM RECEPTION All together minuse the silver plate holders to hold up our signs and butterflie confetti cut outs... it was windy Our wands at work.. this was amazing You can see more pictures of our lounge and table set-ups but here is a close picture of the kids table (well table where 2 kids sat) I had the following for my flower girls Pink buckets with candy, and coloring books and crayons. One of my flower girls is 3 years old so she pulled the 3 apart LOL needless to say she took the number with her.. I love my baby you can also see a picture of our blue signature drink on the table that has a DIY stirrer in in.

Wedding Reception: Again, in adding pops of colors... well in this case all out color! The reception was all about Hubby. I was Fuchsia and he Turquoise.... Perfect combo ;-) Please refer to my Moon Palace review (link in my signature) to see more about vendor's, set-up etc...) In either case, there were limited DIY's here -Lumi's (which was metioned at our welcome cocktail hour) (template not provided) -Turquoise drink stirrers in honor of Hubby's Signature Drink (no template but the same instructions apply) Ha I realized I didn't take pictures -Wedding wands (no template used) used round sticks from Michaels/AC Moore, hot glue gun, ribbon (double sided) and bling. -Dinner Menus (DIY) same instructions apply as our Cocktail Menu's -Signature Drink Sign (DIY) -Wedding Wand Sign (DIY) -Fuchsia Trays (painted with Martha Stewart paint) sealed with Modge Podge Picutures first... followed by templates Dinner Menus Hubby's Siganture drink sign (he doesn't drink at all) The words were taking from Kevin Har'ts (a comedian) show. Wedding Wand Sign.docx

Cocktail Hour DIY's Again in keeping with our pop of color and light on the DIY's the following touches were added: -Satin Table sashes on the cocktail table -Cocktail hour menu's (DIY)... I made 3D butterflies to attach and added bling. -Cocktail hour stirrers featuring the Brides signature drink (no template used ). Items: wooden stirrers, rhinestones, and double sided tape all purchased from Michaels.

Updates in May! Wow, it seems like such a long time that I have updated anything on this site! I find myself contemplating all that I will put into my final planning thread (without having our professional pictures back), so that it's complete, however; this would only lead to post in June, which will happen anyway. So, for now I will add pictures that our guest took and templates. I will do my best to add things as they happened as this will help me to stay organized Coco's discliamer *All pictures are non-professional pictures. Once I am done uploading all post, I will mark this by saying "The End." Lastly, if I do not include a template it is probably one that I do not intend or sharing. Likewise, if you find a template that does not include the graphics that I used, that is because I do not intend on sharing that as it was designed for us. If you are new to my planning thread, please take a moment to look at the first few pages which will have pictures, explains vendors etc. If you have been following me for a while, then please take a look at my review for Moon Palac before you get started here as this will have a lot of things in it. You can find the link in my signature! So, let's get started shall we? Since the majority of the DIY projects came with the concept of OOT bags, let's start with all things centered around OOT. Since we planned to have welcome cocktails, I thought it would be great to give the bags out that night. Most guests arrived on Thursday and our Welcome Cocktails were Friday so... it simply made sense so that they could start using the bags immediately. Here is a picuture of the bags lined up on the Terrace... They were color coded this way: All pink: single females All blue: single males Combo (pink and blue): Couples! Couples received 1 bag bags and tissue paper purchaed from Nashvillewraps.com Contents: -Welcome folder (there was no template for this)! I took a 12x14 sheet of Bazzille paper (found at Michaels) and folded it in half and then folded it up. I used Martha Stewarts glue & bone folder to make the creases. -DND signs -Tears of Joy packets -Vista Print "Wish you were here" postcards - Welcome booklet Other DIY contents/or their parts in the bag -Adult Activity book -Kids activity book (given in pre-mailing packet) -1st Aid Kit -chapstick labels -oot bag tag labels tears_of_joy_packets[1].pdf DND graphics removed.pptx First Aid Kit graphics removed.doc Adult Activity Book.docx activity answer key.pdf

Beautiful Beautiful!!!

IT' is "live" so to speak but if you password protect it (like I did) know one will be able to access your site wihtout it. For US it was all that we wanted without limitations. For example: I have 5 songs uploaded to play in the sequence that I want. I can change the format as many times as I want (I'm not locked in to one look all the time), this is the same with color They have seating charts etc.... And I can go on and on. I already knew going in, that I would be re-doing the site to showcase our engagement pictures so that the songs, look etc. would be different when they visit the site again...so for me this was the best.

You are far to kind! I thank you for the compliments and blessings! I really need to finish my final planning thread Happy Planning!

There are two more recent reviews on DJ Mannia that were posted. Ironic that one other bride got married the same day as I did, and another bride. Both at different locations. One was good, the other bad. Music is TOTALLY too important for us. I would do both..bring your CD and give it to your MOH or best man and let them know the deal (we had this planned when I didn't hear any of the music I requested over dinner.) I gave him 2 songs over the reception to get it right and he didn't so in went the CD. They should have an ipod hook-up I gather but I wouldn't feel comfotrable giving then my equipment so to speak when they should come prepared. If you do the latter then make a play list just for that Quote: Originally Posted by Krystabab143 Speckles121: Thank you!

Muchas Gracias ;-) Thanks so much for the compliments! I'm a shoe whore (self acclaimed LOL) so this was a big deal for me... The shell was a big hit and so unique. When I laid eyes on the inspiration picture there were no more questions as to what I was going to do. Our guest said "they had never seen something like this before.." Gosh I love this site

Hey there, Please friend me on facebook again.. I didn't mean to ignore!!! Totally forgot your BDW name. Okay now onto the major stuff... I paid for 2 day passes for them! Just have a back-up CD!

take out your ruler and you can certaintely tell from there (that's what I had to do ;-) I didn't as I didnt' want the rings to drawn. I believe I purchased the 4-5in as the shells that we used for the sand ceremony was probably the 6-7 or 7-8 inch ones.
