I will get back to you soon - some of that is spoken for already, but not finalized.

I answered you on the other thread Macker. http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/t/21746/barcelo-maya-palace-brides-post-here-d/2730#post_1721057

Off the top of my head, no I don't. Since I don't have our cups anymore, I can't even measure. I can fit two of them (just) on a 12" x12" page of scrapbook paper. So it must be close to 12" X 6". I just traced one of the inserts that came with it on cardboard, and used that as my stencil. Then did a few trial runs with the outline on a blank piece of paper.

Hi Macker, It's their super busy season right now, so it'll likely be tricky to get an answer. They're having up to 4 weddings a day! So be patient. You can also try calling directly, that might get a faster response. I know everyone says this, and you never believe it before your wedding - but any questions etc. you have are answered in the hour or two meeting when you get to the resort. You can change your mind and pick whatever you want then. Yes, the package includes 15, then everyone extra is $66. We had 33, so we paid for 18 extra people. You are paying essentially to have the reception on the beach. Thats the difference between this package and the next one down. I think you also get "nicer" choices for food and such. We added on the extra people (18), an extra hour, a cocktail hour, 3 centrepieces, a bigger cake, the huppah with flowers (I think that was it) and our total was about 5700. Honestly, for a wedding - especially one so awesome, it was worth every penny. Our site at Palmerus beach was fully decorated with lights. I'm guessing it only costs more if you want extra lights? That is probably something you can decide when you have your meeting with the coordinator at the resort. See what is included already. They don't provide place card holders. They will set them up for free though. Just remember it can be windy, so they need to hold up!

I don't think anyone's mug got ruined (the paper). We accidently left our mugs in Mexico, so I can't take a photo of how they look in pieces. I took a zoomed in picture off of Oriental trading instead. You can see there is two black pieces. The top one is the lid, and the bottom is the inside cup. You take them both off, and its just the clear plastic, then you put your paper in. Then you put the black cup insert on ( it screwed on) so you have the: black inside cup where you put your mojito paper, sealed in away from the mojito outside plastic cup to protect the paper As long as you keep it sealed, its safe! I probably wouldn't stick it in water and expect it to stay sealed (I always took the black cup out to wash it good, however just a quick rinse was fine). Hope that helps! We just got back from Mexico, and everyone loved the mugs. It was really handy having names on them - so no one got mixed up.

Here is a photo the wedding coordinator sent me. If just email your coordinator an ask her! Mine sent me a ton of photos! This one is Palmerus beach.

Items can be picked up in Edmonton, will ship. 1 Package of Raffia Fans from Oriental Trading. Original price $10.00/dozen (plus shipping and duty). Will sell for $8. 15 sealable pouches for key holders. They were a big hit! The green disguised money etc better than a clear one would. Bought from Amazon here. Originally $0.60 each, selling for $5.00 for all 15. 24 personalized lip balm tubes. You just need to print out stickers to put on them - they were a big hit. Vanilla scented. Example here 2 Stems of 26" Green Cymbidium Real Touch Orchids - from Bloom Bridal. One stem is fully intact - the other has a few flower heads cut off - but all flowers were cut off at the lowest point, still useable for crafts and corsages. I used them for corsages and bouts (attached photo is of the grooms corsage, the green orchid is the one I'm selling). $16.50 each normally, will sell both for $20. 13 Clear hard tags - perfect for labeling OOT bags or making luggage tags (I used them for both)! Originally purchased for the lanyards, but found the tags very useful too. I labeled the OOT bags, so I didn't need as many tags as lanyards. 2 pink lanyards left, I'll throw them in.
