Awesome, thank you!

Wow, I didn't even think to look at Garden Ridge, I will have to check them out! What section did you find them in?

Oooo, those are cute too! Thanks for sharing!

Ya congrats ladies!!!!! I am so happy for everyone that is getting married this week! Have a wonderful time and enjoy every minute of it! I can't wait to see pics of everyone's days!!!!! xoxo!

Ok cool- I think we just have garden view- so I suppose we'll be getting ocean view. That is fine with me! I don't plan on being in the room except to sleep and other things, hehe! Yay Coco! I'm so excited for you! I feel the same way with the room nights! I don't think we are doing anything besides the rehearsal dinner, cocktail hour and reception on the wedding day. I can't decide if I want a private rehearsal dinner or not, because I'm afraid it will feel like a wedding reception but without the music and dancing. What are you doing for your rehersal and where are you having it? How many people do you have again? Right now we have 45 people booked plus us. But November is a long way away! I expect to have between 40-50. My TA told me that FunJet will not refund our money until after our trip . Oh well, I guess we'll have an abundance of money after the wedding! hehe!

Oh ya, I forgot about that! We get a free upgrade too- we have over 100 room nights!! I guess I should ask my TA to confirm that as well! What room were you originally booked for?

How on earth did you get approval before you check in- everything I've heard and seen said the upgrade with the resort credits was based on availbilty upon check in. I need to know you ways!

Good! Working on finding a good, reasonable florist right now. I just ordered the necklaces for my bridesmaids this week! I just got my raffia and starfish to make the aisle decorations for the ceremony. Just patientely waiting for Frontier to post the flights to Cancun for our charter flight- I'm hoping they are not crazy expensive with gas prices being so high right now!

Congrats! One of my bridesmaids will be wearing the exact same dress! I can't wait to see your pics and see how the "horizon" color looks with the ocean!

wow- great job! I need to see what my Walmart has!

Thank you! You learn something new every day! haha! I actually got the 8-10 in for $3 a piece on ebay with shipping cost, so I did pretty good! I think I will need a dozen of them, since I am having about 45 people. I need to go to Hobby Lobby and see what other goodies they have!

My parents gave me a certain amount of money, and we will pay for anything that will go over that. We are paying for the photographer and anything else my mother does not agree with me for, lol. My fiance's parents have not given us any money yet, we are looking into buying a house soon and I have a feeling they will be giving us some money for that.

do you ladies have instructions on how to make them yourself that you would like to share?! Thank you!

Really?!? I didn't know you could buy anything online at hobby lobby! How much are theirs?

I just sent you a PM! I ordered 6 rolls from the nashville wraps website Diane suggested. I am planning on making 12 of them since the starfish can only be bought in a dozen!

Will do Caitlin! I am not crafty either (I'm hoping I find my inner Martha Stewart through this process!) but I am going to trust Diane (ladydi) and her instructions and make one myself and see how it goes! I think I have enough raffia in case I make some mistakes on the first couple! I may attempt one this weekend, otherwise I probably won't work on it for a month or so!

You can easily make the starfish for the aisles for $6 a piece. That is how much mine are costing me to make. Most places want to charge $12-$15 to buy one! Hope this helps!

I am making the starfish with raffia for the aisles for the ceremony. I just received the raffia and the starfish, so I will post a picture after I make the first one!

You're the best Caitlin!

Ugh, how annoying! I guess it's okay that I pay before- but I just don't want then to not show up or something and then I don't get my money back! Who is Miroslavia- Is she a PSAV person?

I was told that I must pay PSAV 30 days in advance instead of paying when we check out of the hotel. My wedding planner and my contact Dolores said this was their new policy. Has anyone else that recently booked with PSAV been told the same thing?

Great thread! I hope we can bump this and more recent brides can post their websites. So far I have used Vistaprint for my save the dates and they were amazing! 100 postcards for free- I just paid shipping! www.vistaprint.com

Congrats alaharri!! You look beautiful! Can't wait to read your review!!!
