Old Navy has lots on sale right now, flip flops etc but I went looking for linen pants and they have them on for under $20 (in Canada, I am sure US is even cheaper!) Free shipping over $50 and you can return in store!!!!!! I think we are going to order our groomsmens pants - anyone have any experience with the old navy flat front linen pants?

Thanks everyone!!!!! MJKH - I wasn't planning on flip flops but I may just go ahead and order the boys for their outfits!

Thanks Tam! I forgot I am also adding hair elastics too the bags as well. Do you think hair elastics and safety pins in the first aid kit or should I just add them to the "wedding week survival kit" with all the other items in it? Sorry for all questions, FI is no help with this stuff lol he says "who cares" or "dont add it" lol

Me again... what a surprise! SO I picked up so extra safety pins tonight as the michaels sewing kits only come with one and I think that would likely be the MOST used item, do you think they should be added in the survival kit or the first aid kit? I'd love to add them to the sewing kit but everything kits just so in it and they wont close properly..... thoughts?

Congrats!!!! I actually got the image from another DW bride on this forum, I can't remember who Here is the document: And here is the sewing kit heart as well! The oriental trading bags come in a few different colours, red, royal blue and black for sure! Here is the link to the royal blue ones http://www.orientaltrading.com/color-accent-tote-bags-royal-blue-a2-14_459+RB-12-1.fltr?Ntt=totes

Oh no? Now I am curious about the other ACV brides? Free trip for every 16 (or other number) of guests booked AND free upgrade to executive class after 20 people book (or right away) for bride and groom? Or just one of the two?!

Amazon does ship to Canada!!!! I never knew borders was going out of business!!!!

Your cake looks great!!!! My girlfriend had a 4 or 5 tier cake at her wedding this past weekend (at home) and they did everything accept the bottom layer "fake" with real fondant! It looked great, was more cost effective and she didn't have a TON of leftover cake!!!!!!! How do you think fondant would travel?!

You can post your own OOT thread if you like otherwise you are more than welcome to share them here. Another great option would be to share it on the Canadian OOT bag thread, not that I think about it that is probably the best option as I am sure the other Canadian ladies would LOVE to see what you have done Here is the link to that thread: http://www.bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/thread/38128/canadian-oot-bag-info-where-to-shop/1250 Can't wait to see them!!!!

Back from another trip to the wedding planning store aka. Dollarama No Tylenol or Advil 10 cts (they sold on really quickly!) but I did come across 2 new brand name items that I had to share with you all! My absolute FAVOURITE blistex in the entire world is the raspberry lemonade one. If you havent tried it DO because it is amazing and like a vacation on your lips! It is also SPF 15. Well believe it or not I stumbled upon it tonight at Dollarama and for only $1!!!!!! They had about 4 other types of blistex as well most for $1.25+ so I was really excited!!!!! Another great find was Poly to go!!!!! FOr only $2 this was a great find as I am pretty sure it has cost me $5+ in the past at the drug store! Another brand name find at Dollarama, gotta love it!!!!!! I only picked up 3, one for FI and I, one for my mom and dad and one for my future in laws. If we had the money I would do them for everyone but I just don't have it in the budget and can use the $2 somewhere else. I may pick up a couple more to throw in our "master first aid kit" that one guest (likely my mom) will have and everyone will be able to use, it will be stocked with lots of extra first aid items not included in the mini kits for major injuries etc. Remember to ALWAYS check the expiry dates - I always get carried away with my excitement about my finds and sometimes forget!!!! My last share of today is probably not as exciting for some but I mentioned in my own OOT thread and possibly here before that we would be including test tubes of dish soap in each of our guests Bubba Mugs in their bags so that they can wash them before using them. Well before I had a chance to order the test tubes online I found these mini craft containers that were perfect for a little dish soap so I just went ahead and bought them, save on shipping and I love immediate gratification (no patience for online shopping lol) 8 for $1 I accidentally bought the larger size the first time, and then when I went back to get these ones I bought 2 more packs of large (they were mixed in on the rack) so I have a whole bunch of the larger ones. I think I may include some sensitive laundry detergent or delicate detergent (like woolite) in each of the larger ones that people can use to wash their bathing suits.... what do you guys think of that? Is it too weird or a good addition? I have them so I thought I may as well use them but I also don't want to take my OOTS from GREAT to weird with one little thing lol That's all for now

Not sure if this is the thread you meant to post this in but would be interested to see them/know where you got them.

OMG! I cannot even believe this, my heart goes out to you and your mom. I think sitting down with your Dad and explaining that it is an intimate wedding and it is important for both your parents to be there but that in order to keep an enjoyable atmosphere for all you would not like his gf to attend. I think he HAS to know that this would cause an issue and that if you just verbalize how you feel maybe he'll step up and understand its YOUR day and you don't need anyone, particularly your parents adding any drama to it.

Thanks!!!!! This may be too organized even for me!!!!!!! Copy of Template-Destination Wedding Clothing & Accessories Planning Sheet-1.xls

I liked cushion too and FI went with a round set the same way!!!!!!!! Looks gorgeous!!!!

I will head to chapters to check it out!!! hopefully it's there!!!!

Keep me posted on your sewing kit needs Natalie! I wont know for a few more months I'd expect though I have a rough "guestimate" now so I should have 5 or so extras I think!

Ok so I never received a document this way before am it says I have to log in to view it but I do not have a gmail account..... any advice!? I would love to see this but I think I am just being really blonde right now! lol

They look great, very similar to the ones they have at Michaels but love that they are so well packaged!!!! I went to order them and shipping was MORE than the fans themselves.... now I am debating again!

WOW! What a great deal, we just cleaned out FIs closet, hopefully he didnt take his old suits to goodwill already!!!!! Do you know if they have linen or linen look?!

Got it thanks Chelsea!!! I am off to check it out now!!!!

What a great deal!!!!!! Not sure our guests would use them as I am sure any reading ours will be doing will be during the day (the others will be too loaded to read in the evening - oh how embarrassing!) but I may order a few even for my BMs or something!

PMing you! I am so curious... I am the worst at packing!!!!! Can't wait to see the pics!

I never thought of asking if it is both, I believe ours is 16 booked we get a free trip, I wonder if we still get the upgrade.... off to email the TA

I know the date is Feb 14th!!!!!! (yay for a fellow Feb 2012 bride!!!) Destination....... I forget

Can you post a picture?! I think I will order ours now, this is a great price!!!
