  1. I am struggling with this! I think I'm going to do a horseback excursion for my BM's, an OOT bag with a few extra goodies, and a necklace. I found these 2 on Etsy and I can't decide between them: Seller is Kookime.
  2. Thank you! That clears things up. We are doing the middle package which includes the cocktail hour and everything is supposed to be private.
  3. I thought that's why I was paying for the wedding package. I'm fully happy to pay for the set up and extra staff to service our wedding, but I just thought that's part of the package we're purchasing. Did you purchase a package? Veronica has said we will have a private event on the terrace and has made no mention of an open bar charge. It's getting to close to the day, these extra charges are getting super frustrating when they keep popping up. It makes it very difficult to budget. What do our guests drink if we don't pay this extra charge?
  4. I love these tools! I like MyNetDiary.com (and iPhone app). I've tried them all and this one's my personal favourite - but they're all super handy and so helpful!
  5. I am confused - What constitutes "open bar" at an all-inclusive resort?? Veronica has never mentioned this to me. If we don't do the open bar, what do our guests get???
  6. I know - I'm really starting to get excited now!! We've been planning for well over a year, it's hard to believe it's actually getting close now. I've had my programs done for weeks now, lol. I'm trying to get as much DIY out of the way as early as possible. My HUGE to-do list is looking pretty short these days!!
  7. I checked 2 le Chateau's in Calgary - an outlet and regular store - they didn't have them for less than $10.
  8. I did a search but could only find a bunch of threads on "Will you be my bridesmaid" cards. I'm making DIY thank you cards for my girls, and looking for great wording, poems or phrases that are good to use for bridesmaid, MOH, mother of the bride and mother of the groom cards.
  9. I'm trying to make the days prior to the wedding go as smoothly as possible. What does your wedding week schedule look like? What do you all have planned for the days prior to the wedding and when are you doing things like hair trials, OOT bag assembly and stags? How much time are you leaving for hair/make-up before the ceremony?
  10. I just bought 20 wire-free lanterns from Ebay seller Sourcing4U for $64 including shipping!
  11. Really? Hmm, interesting! Well, that's good if you can't see it! There can't be much then.
  12. I contacted the website and they said there are come metal components - so I did a bit more searching and found these: http://www.skylanterns2u.com Metal-free, made with bamboo and recycled paper and FREE worldwide shipping! They were even used by Earth Hour Global.
  13. Really? That's great! Was it the outlet or regular store?
  14. Thanks so much! I'll definitely check them out!!
  15. After reading about these and the potential harm to the environment (metal wires that don't degrade and can hurt wildlife) I've decided to only buy 100% biodegradable lanterns (no metal wires). Here's the website if anyone is interested: http://www.eco-sky-lanterns.co.uk/
  16. I am ordering from www.theskylantern.com - they're high quality, eco-friendly and ship from Vancouver. We are planning to give one to each person at the reception. I think it will be really pretty!
  17. Oops, I just realized they come in cases of 36, which is exactly what we need so I won't need to split!
  18. If anyone is wanting to do sky lanterns, I'm looking for someone to split a case with. They come in 100's and I only need about 35-40 max. http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/thread/74564/sky-lanterns/30#post_1642468
  19. If anyone in Calgary wants to split some - let me know!
  20. Does anyone know where I can get our rings engraved? Thanks!
  21. So Fi bought us front row tickets to one of our favourite singers, Ray Lamontagne (one of his songs is our wedding song), as a wedding gift for both of us. When I logged into Ebay I accidentally saw how much he spent on them - way more than I expected!! So I'd like to do something really special for us as well when we're in Mexico - a great couples' excursion or romantic adventure. Does anyone have any suggestions for a romantic and amazing day trip or evening??
