These tips are great, definitely something to remember over the next year as planning really gets into high gear!

That's the date I tried to get, but they were booked! I am officially confirmed for March 12, 2013 at 4 pm in the Gazebo! Let me know how your planning is going! So exciting=)

Couldn't have said it any better =)

I invited all my wedding party over for dinner, and made appetizers, signature blue drinks (one of our wedding colors), and a sit down dinner! For the places around the table, I wrote everyone a card thanking them for being a part of this journey with us, and a special little note from my boyfriend and I (fiance STILL sounds weird to say!). I got Beach house wine, the bottle that is blue with starfish on it, and had them scattered around the table...needless to say we had lots of wine and champagne! Everyone's significant other and some more friends came after dinner and we had a party! It was such an awesome night and my guests enjoyed it!

Please post them! Especially the bridal party and yours, Swarovski crystals sound beautiful!

Now THAT is a crazy deal!!! I would take you up on that offer!!

hehe I couldnt help but laugh at that pic! You guys must have had sooo much fun though, im sure the pics turned out gorgeous! Havent bought my dress yet but a TTD session is definitely going to happen =)

I think I'm going to use a bit of everything listed as well, especially the shells, sand dollars! So many ideas

Hi everyone! I'm doing a turquiose, purple, white and silver. I want seashells and starfish to compliment the colors as well, but not too much of that. Some glam too, if I can incorporate it!

I really like the photobooth idea, and I also like the idea of writing well-wishes on coasters...not sure where I've seen those, maybe on this site, but they are specific to well-wishes for weddings. Reading them on our one-year anniversary would be something special to do!

Thats a very good idea, as I'd like to get some welcome letters and pamphlets made! Hopefully Vistaprint has some nice templates!

Thanks for posting, this is an awesome reminder!

I'm inviting about 100, around 40 of which I know for sure will come, 30 are maybes, and the rest are no's...mostly family and good friends, no one that we haven't hung out with in person in the past year. We'll see what the numbers turn out to be!

Excellent choice! Love #2 on you!!

Those would be gorgeous for bridesmaids dresses too! Will check and see what the other colors are....

Beautiful invites, thank you for sharing with us!

They look awesome!

Beautiful!! I loved your invites, they are exactly what I'm looking for! I'm just wondering where you got them from? Thanks!

You looked absolutely stunning! May have to steal your pashmina idea...Dress was unreal and looked fabulous on you!

Wow you did an amazing job! Congratulations!

Love the touch of glam. That necklace with the dress was beautiful, as were all the pics!

Love your dress and all the pictures...just simply stunning!!!

Hey everyone! This is so exciting, it's nice to see everyone's plans come into action! I just booked my week this morning! We're going to the Majestic Colonial Punta Cana from march 09-16! Will anyone else be there at that time? We just got back from a beautiful wedding there last month, and that solidified it for us! Busy year ahead for all!

Great ideas, I love the opening letter...have subscribed to this thread and will definitely use vistaprint for the welcome letter, their stuff looks great! Thanks for sharing!

Those are beautiful! Thank you for sharing
