Congratulations! Good luck with your planning. Once you choose a location and resort then you can get in touch with their wedding planner and they can help you through it all.

Congratulations!

Very cute!

I received an oriental trading catalogue that was only wedding stuff. Some of the stuff seems like its priced very well. I have not bought anything from them so I cannot comment of quality.

Pretty! Looks like a lot of work but came out great.

I really like the starfish charm.

Pretty. Great idea for something simple and cute.

I think it depends on the type of invitations that you want. I know some go for a few dollars each to buy so if these are the ones you want it will definitely be cheaper to diy.

Very pretty. You did a great job with these bouquets.

great alternative to a traditional guestbook.

the people are cute! i'll have to save your template.

everything looks great

very cute!

Very cute, i bought the same starfish cutout from michaels!

So glad i found this thread. I was thinking about music and didn't know where to start for the reception music but i do have all of the ceremony music picked out so halfway there.

That was the only one that I found at my store. I'm not sure if they carry larger ones.

Definitely saving this link. I am also planning on doing this.

very cute!

i am undecided between a mr and mrs duck because i like rubber rucks or the just married groom holding the bride i saw in the earlier pages.

We are actually skipping the guestbook all together. We personally would not do anything with what they have signed or gave advice on and when we go to weddings we would not mind not doing it haha.

I am going to bring my 2 sets. We are going to have them engraved =)

I am planning on doing a signature drink and will probably have my friend be in charge of that because she loves doing mixed drinks. We are having a small group for the DW and really casual so we are actually just making all the food ourselves. I haven't told her yet but I know she'll be excited about it.

I am wearing my full wedding gear again and so is fiance and entire bridal party.

Our AHR is going to be a chinese banquet. Our DW is sort of a secret haha because we both have very opinionated extended families so the DW is a need to know basis. So it will be formal we will both be in our full wedding gear and our guest list is at about 200 right now!! I am really hoping to keep it around 150 so we'll see. We are having a band at the reception with dancing and a formal cake and we will have our first dance again. We will also have a table with photos of the DW so it will be like.....your invited to our wedding....surprise!! we already got married hahaha. Our seperate budget is probably around 9k.

great idea!
