I did briefly last night but shipping was like $21 to canada and the lanyards were $25 lol I may have them shipped to grandma in florida or keep looking for something local so I can put them together in advance of leaving. Don't want to leave too many things to do at the resort.

Thanks Mocha! Yes Turquoise, aqua blue or even a lime green would be ok. I am still checking websites trying to find the best deals.

Thanks Mocha. I did see those at Walmart and may end up getting them but i am still trying to find colors that match my wedding colors at a reasonable cost or even maybe with a logo or wording on it.

Wow Meg that must have really freaked out you and your guests! What a sad thing to have happened. I have my grandmother and friend coming from Tampa! Well good luck with all your planning and if there are any questions you have I would be more than happy to help if I can!

I will be sure to have a drink or a few to toast to your birthday! When you are talking to him let him know I referred you! thanks What is your name btw? He does book up pretty fast so I hope you date is still available.

Are you giving it to him before the wedding?

I think I just might hehe Trying to figure out what would be the latest date I could go before the wedding. We leave April 23rd so it sounds like I would have to go around Mid Feb to get the pics back in time. I forget if you told me they put a book together for you or not in the price?

Hammy-I am using Ivan and cannot rave enough about him and his correspondance. He definately has already gone above and beyond for me and I am not even there yet! He is reasonable compared to some of the other pricing I got. He works with you and would suggest contacting him for his pricing at [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]

Miriam those pics are AWESOME! You are totally giving me more courage to do this lol How long did it take to get the pics back? Did you bring your own outfits? Did you tell her in advance what type of prop shots you would like to do or did you just use what they had there? Was it just her or were there other people around also? OMG I love them, you look HOT girl! They did an awesome job on the hair and makeup!!!

Booo I don't think we have a christmas tree shop in Canada! We suck! Brandy I love those tags. What did you print them on and what size are they in person? What did you use to cut them? I am sooooo not a DIY person lol i come up with ideas and but not very good at executing them. I am more of a manager/foreman lol Jana-Awesome finds, love the bottles and bags. Does anyone have any suggestions for lanyards for the keycard/tip holders? I have the holders but just need to order the lanyards and get the tags done through vista print or maybe just print them myself at work lol Haha Lua I have a cheat too! Lua-LOVE the rings i must of tried on a 100 of them and FI tried on a couple and found the one he loved right away! I wish I was a decisive with my stuff as he is! ie. dress etc... Started my brochures today!

It's beatiful Brandy but what happened to the other one?

Ella-great photshare cards, I used the same template for my postcard guestbook. LOVE THEM! I love my monogram but only got the final a couple of weeks ago and had already made one myself and bought a bunch of stuff with it from vista print but like this one more. Oh well I will have two lol Brandy-my blood pressure just shot up for you and me lol I have about the same amount of stuff to do as you. Oh boy!!!!! January is going to be wedding month for sure! thanks Michele!

thanks I begged one of my IT guys to do it for me and all he wanted was lunch!!!! YAY He is a graphic designer and I gave him somewhat of a template and we went with it.

The other ones look great too Brandy I think I may have the same problem cause my logo is full of color and I will probably have to go with the white ones!

Those are awesome Brandy. I like the orange with pink one. I may get these in my color cause I wanted to do the insulated travel mugs but too much room and weight to carry down. These are perfect for that price!

Thanks Bonnie! Great job on the invites!

Mocha-Honestly I think it looks beautiful on you but if you are not happy with it then i would keep looking. It is your special day and you must feel 100% happy with the dress. I never got the oh my god this is the one feeling either even with the original I ordered. I love it but just didn't have that cry when you put it on or just know feeling but i think in the end once it comes in I will love it (hopefully) cause I won't have the time to order another one lol

Welcome new brides to be! Good luck with all the planning, the ladies on here are so helpful and kind! Mocha-looking forward to seeing the dress with all the accessories! What a steal! I haven't found shoes that I like yet and it's making me nervous cause the closer to winter the less sandals I see! Gonna try a flea market on the weekend here in brampton cause some of the indian shops carry bright colored sandals so hopefully i score a pair! i am doing a welcome packet but not really oot bags- going to have welcome letter, postcards, pens, lanyards with waterproof keycard/money holder, schedule of events etc... I am giving out a few things at the ceremony and reception as gifts and that took up most of my budget.

Ella-Thanks and I am glad you are on the ball cause they do try to go back on their word sometimes from my experience but like you I now put it all in email even if we have a phone conversation I follow up with an email confirmation. My travel agent quit and we did everything over the phone and she said things to me that took me a while to get honored with the new agent and manager. What a disaster that was but it is getting sorted out now and seems to be going better. She pretty much dropped the ball on everything. Wrong names and requests and never even sent out invoices and receipts which I didn't even know were necessary so we are picking up the pieces now. But hey it will all come out in the wash as my grandma always says lol

No problem, everything is available after July 2nd, 2011! Hoping to also have my professional photos done by then also.

oops I meant the tealight holders with the silver in them from kitchen stuff plus and added blue votive type holders on top from dolloarama and the small round blue tealight holders from dollorama also.

Thanks! I bought the acryllic ice off another bride and some at the dollorama store up here in canada. I am going to buy some fresh flowers and try them in the vase with the blue water pearls also cause I think that option is what will end up looking best with flowers rather than rocks or sand (would need the little water tube things for the stem of the flowers if I went that route). I think the rocks look better with bamboo stick which I may use for my AHR instead of fresh flowers but since I am paying for them in mexico I want to get double use out of them lol

Lucky you tris! Wish I had my own beauty entourage coming with me lol I got the blue tealight holders at kitchen stuff plus in packs of three and the blue tealight holders at dollorama in 3 packs, they have all sorts of different colors.

Oh cool, I will have to try that thanks!

I'll try them but I think they may only do letters but it's worth a shot. thanks!
