  1. I think the peach will bring out the color in the flowers, and it seems to stand out a bit more then the pink.
  2. I bought my plastic part from ebay, and the coiled key ring from oriental trading company
  3. I never would have thought to use fabric paint! What a great idea!
  4. Your bags are amazing!! Your guests will love them!
  5. Not sure where you are from, but If you are from Canada, try Superstore. I bought great ones for our camping this summer there and they were 4 dollars each. They come in a variety of colors and to personalize just get some waterproof stickers.
  6. The travel agent we are using is a family friend, so choosing her was easy. We first found a bunch of locations and resorts that we liked, based on tons of hours of research. We narrowed it down to about 5 or 6 and took them to her. She was able to give us a little more information about the resorts and also any feedback from what her other customers had said about the resort and personal experiences. From there we narrowed it down to 3 resorts and she was able to provide us with pricing, which really helped make our decision. She is dealing with all our travel while I'm dealing with the wedding planning with the resort myself. I know some TAs do both, but I prefer to be in contact with the resort wedding planners directly.

    Welcome! Happy planning:)
  8. Welcome! The first thing we did was decide on a location (which you have done), then a resort, then a date, and booked our date. After that things seemed to kind of get a little easier.

    Welcome! Happy planning:)
  10. Welcome!! When we started planning our destination wedding we ran into the same thing. My family could afford to attend by my FI family could not afford to come to Hawaii because of the cost. And also they live on the east coast compared to us living in the west, their price was much more. We finally had to decide to change locations because it was really important for my FI to have his family there. He said he would regret not having them there to share in our special day. We also wanted to go someplace like Hawaii for the site seeing and abundance of things to do. We ended up choosing to rather get married in Jamaica as it would be cheaper for his family to come and we still get to get married in an amazing place. We have decided on our one year anniversary we will go to Hawaii just the two of us and do the things we wanted to do. I guess it really comes down to the fact that are you going to be okay not having your sisters there? If not, then I think you need to consider changing locations if it really is important they be there. Good luck, let us know what you have decided!
  11. I know this is an old thread, but I just can't help but look at them all!! Thanks for sharing!
  12. My dress is white and my FI will be wearing a white shirt as well, then that way it will be consistent and look the same in pictures.
