They'll just move them over for the reception-- no need to purchase twice the amount!

Thanks! -Cora You are so welcome! We did the $1500 option that included the DJ. It also included a private open bar with a bartender on the beach right next to the bonfire and all the fixin's for s'mores. So much fun! I'm not sure what the $500 option includes. Actually I don't think they had two options in April when we did ours, so you may want to double check with the WC the difference between the two packages.

We had to pay extra for the chiavari chairs (I can't totally remember but I want to say the chair upgrade was $8/chair). But if you upgrade to those chairs you have a lot of color options. We wanted silver but I think they also have black, white or brown. Good luck with your wedding and plans!!!

I'm not sure I'll be able to find them in plastic. I don't want them all to be broken when I get there!! Yes, we did have glass items-- bowls that we used as vases for the centerpieces. I wrapped everything in bubble wrap and placed them carefully, but in the end one of them broke. We had an extra so it turned out fine, but just be warned there is definitely a strong possibility that could happen! Be prepared with extras or a backup plan if necessary. Good luck!!

I've been pinning like crazy and can't wait to bounce ideas off the other brides in these forums. Although I did try convincing her to have a DW in our original location of Mexico. HAHA She booked her date on my husbands 30th bday which is not making him all that thrilled- so if I can convince her to go rogue and do a DW he gets his 30th away like we originally planned, mom gets married, and everyone wins! LOL Ooh a winter brides thread: good idea! You should start one! I'll reply, but most of my responses will involve pumpkin or just pretty wintery pics. Haha. I hope you can talk your mom into doing a DW!! You should convince her that as the planning expert your vision really requires a beachy destination and having it at home simply won't fit into the gorgeous plans you have in mind!

Totally forgot about the fun fall fashion. I live in LA so it's a stretch to wear most of it but that doesn't stop me. We also are lacking in the fall foliage. And I've always wanted to go apple picking but have yet to figure out where I can go that isn't too far away. Something to research this weekend!

    Just posted this article on Fall Weddings, but since I love Fall so much, wanted to ask everyone to share their favorite thing about Fall. I love anything pumpkin, so I’m looking forward to baking up tons of pumpkin treats in the coming months. On the list: Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins and Pumpkin Donuts with Sour Cream Frosting So let’s hear it—what do you love about Fall?
