In keeping with my starfish theme I just finished my parent's boutonnieres tonight. For the mothers... How To: I used real 3-4 inch starfishes Dismantled a peony silk stem and a hydrangea silk stem. Then grab your hot glue gun For the fathers...less is always more for the men.

Thank you ladies! Here TJLOVEPRINTS is the seller I used. His name is Tobie - I sent him about a dozen changes and he was so gracious to customize the thumbprint guest book just how I wanted. http://www.etsy.com/listing/78925684/beach-wedding-palm-tree-thumbprint-guest?ref=&sref= I was so happy with the palm tree that I'm currently working with him on these for the AHRs. So one palm tree and two regular trees

Great Job!!!!

Hi Ladies, We are having three receptions and I thought it would be ridiculous to buy a guest book for each reception. I made this Passport guest book on www.mixbook.com to hitting them all. It will be traveling to Mexico, California and then Illinois for a collection of love notes from our guests. Here is my DIY Passport Guest Book Cover .... For a keepsake I could see everyday, I thought of the Thumbprint Guest Books. A palm tree one...how fitting is that?!I got this from Etsy. I plan to have one at the other receptions too. When all is said and done we're going to frame all 3 together. Here is Mexico's.... What do y'all think???

A horse?! That is beautiful!

Ladies, I just finished my menu card!

Great job!!! It looks amazing.

Is anyone doing a sparkler send off? I have confirmed with my WC and they do allow them.... but how do I get them down there??? I soooooo want this photo moment.

Do you still have the 1 box lanyard inserts (100ct) - "to have and to hold...your room key"?

Previous Brides, How did you get your sparklers down to Mexico??? I have confirmed with my WC and they do allow them but how do I get them down there??? I soooooo want this photo moment.

In that case I dont mind if anything slips out! Thats beautiful!

Wow!!! 6 liters...thats over 25 cups of water. How do you fit in that much water per day?

There anything such as waterproof eyeshadow? I went to MAC yesterday and they only have something called Mix Medium that makes the pigments water resistant.

Congrats!!! We are wedding day twins Happy Planning.

Matt - Thank you so much for these tips!! I never thought of wearing my heels underwater, I love that idea. Ok, no polka dot boxers for him...but what about me? Will I need to go commando to not show thong/panty lines?!?! Can't wait See you soon.

That is amazing! I wanted to do DIY this too but was affraid to ruin my heels. What adhesive did you use and did you have to lacquer the whole shoe to keep the stones/pearls from falling off? How long did this take you? After this whole wedding is over and done with I'm going to start Bling-ing!

Anytime Pjmendoza! - Just paying it foward I hated the thought of carrying fake flowers. I thought it was just tacky but this gives it such a nice twist and saved me LOTS OF $$$ in the long run due to 2 at home receptions after Mexico. I had my 2nd dress fitting last week and got photos with my veil & bouquet. I'm pretty happy with it all https://picasaweb.google.com/102191913093253336098/BeforeAfter?authuser=0&authkey=Gv1sRgCKz_1---87SJQQ&feat=directlink

Beautiful! Did you DIY that?

The ones on top were my most expensive ones, I found at Sam Moon. I tried looking on their website for you but they weren't available. www.sammoon.com For the would suggest Ebay, your local China Towns, flee markets, Facebook Friends, Grandmas, & Craigslist.

That is beautiful! Where did you get yours from?

Good Job! That looks great!!! Where did you get your brooches from? Will you be adding more?

For the walk down the aisle I'm doing barefoot jewelry from Red-I by Chelsea For the at home receptions I am going with the Manolo Blahnik Blue Sex In The City Shoes....just not it's price tag. http://www.bellabelleshoes.com/blissb/ Bella Belle is also a seller on Ebay. Here's a tip..buy a 1/2 size bigger than what you normally wear. I had to exchange them 3 times to get my right size. I wear an 8 but the ones that fit are 8.5

Del Sol is doing our TTD this June. I just picked up my TTD back from the seamstress today!!! It was a sample dress I bought for $150. Overall it was in good shape...but I hated the dipped neckline and had her repair the bead work. Before After - transformed to sweetheart neckline & beading repaired...for $65 TTD dress = $215 not bad right?

This was my dream dress... HOWEVER...This mermaid ruffle dress is $2,500 and was out of my budget. I found this mermaid sample dress for $300 I added extra fabric and a seamstress for $285 Now I have my dream dress for $585 Brides on a budget FIND A GOOD SEAMSTRESS, you'd be surprised of what wonders they can do with your gown and pocket book!!!

This is tooooo cute!!!
