WOW everybody thanks! It's been almost 2 years since the wedding so I apologize for not always keeping up with the requests for templates. I just dug out my old computer and moved the templates onto my mac, so feel free to send me requests. If you reply to this thread with a request and I don't answer, please send me a private message!

Went to two different Victorias secret stores in Orlando today and both of them had this robe for $58. They also have the cute hoodie with the ring on the zipper!

Since I'm new, my post with all the pictures is being held for moderation. If you can't wait that long, all my pictures are also on a previous thread that I started and in an album on my profile

(Ignore the URL - was going to make a website but I changed my mind)

Here's the template!!! I moved everything out of photoshop and into word so everyone can use it. Make sure you print the 2nd page on the back of the 1st page and replace my pictures and words with your own! Materials: We ordered all the paper and envelopes from paper and more in metallic pearlescent pearl white color and the pink azalea color! The inside pages of the passport are text weight and the outside cover of the passport is a heavier card stock. We printed it ourselves on our laser printer, we tried an ink jet printer first but the colors didn't come out bright enough. We downloaded a couple fonts from that Dafont.com website. If you would like the names just let me know and I'll look them up! Binding passports: After experimenting with glue, staples, and ribbon we ended up ordering white staples online and using those to bind the passports. We didn't like the way the ribbon looked and the glue was a little messy. The staples definitely held it together the prettiest and we stapled it on the edge so you can't even see them.

Hey guys! After looking around at all the passport invitations online, I found these super cute invitations for sale on etsy by InvitingDesignStudio (http://www.etsy.com/shop/InvitingDesignStudio)... I LOVED these. But with a limited budget and a lot of things I still wanted to change, we decided to make our own and I'm SO happy with how they turned out. We saved a ton of money and almost all of our guests have already called to tell us how much they loved them... Here are the pictures of everything we sent out (Passport invitations- including the different colors we played with, luggage tag reply cards, boarding pass & magnet save the dates, passport sleeve, and even envelopes!)

We used Paper and More's metallic pearlescent in the pearl white color and the pink azalea color!

Hey! I am out of town for the weekend and the templates are on my home computer but I will post the templates on here as soon as I get home! Glad you like them!

In addition to Joanne's designs, InvitingDesignStudio on Etsy has a bunch of beautiful designs & her cover is really similar to mine. She sells a digital template as well as already done passports so if you're interested you should definitely check hers out! I'm actually a Delta Zeta (Our colors are pink & green and our mascot is a turtle) so I had quite a bit of turtle themed clip art already on my computer! I hope the free templates help another bride-to-be! I struggled for long time trying to get everything (spacing, sizes, font direction, etc) just right!

Details: We ordered all the paper and envelopes from paper and more- everything is pearlescent and sparkly! The inside pages of the passport are text weight and the outside cover of the passport is a heavier card stock. We printed it ourselves on our laser printer, we tried an ink jet printer first but the colors didn't come out bright enough. We downloaded a couple fonts from that Dafont.com website. If you would like the names just let me know and I'll look them up!

Sleeve for passport- Inspired by the one JoanneIreland made for her boarding passes! Thanks Joanne!

I just added the basic templates we used to make these to our website www.mygrandoasis.com ! They are under the pre-designed ones and free to download! Let me know if you have any questions! PS. Ignore the URL going across the image- that was going to be the name of our website until I found out it was already taken LOL Passport Invitation (We printed the 3rd page on the back of the 2nd page) Boarding Pass Save-The-Date (We printed 2nd page on back of 1st page) We also mailed these with magnets we got for free from vistaprint! (Just paid shipping) This is the magnet we got from Vistaprint Luggage Tag Reply Card- We have 3 different designs for this on the website. We cut the corners off where it is marked, punch a hole at the top and tie a ribbon through it. (Again, we printed 2nd page on back of 1st page)

I was considering having activities planned for outside the wedding, but asked around and it seemed like for a lot of people- this was going to be their family vacation for the year. And also there was a generation gap and not everyone had the same interests.. so instead we included lists of popular activities with contact information and recommendations in their welcome bag and on the wedding website and let people do their own thing- whether that was with us, with others, or on their own

LOVE these!

Hey! Your review on Our Lucaya was very helpful. We are planing a wedding there for next summer and having some of the same delays with Faye. We are reserved the lighthouse point beach for the ceremony and the pavilion for the reception. I'm totally stressing about food and what vendors to use without being able to visit them- I was wondering if you had any photos online of your ceremony or reception? Thanks again, Chelsea
