From the album: My OOT Bags~ the big hits and the things that weren't used

Julie, I found mine at some no name dollar store...I actually had bout the cute loot bags that had flip flop designs on them from Dollar Tree but they were way too flimsy when I started putting them together ...so I went on the hunt to every dollar store I could find...the one's I ended up getting have the zip loc at the top but have no print on them (like ziploc brand does etc) ...They are PERFECT and they have multiple sizes of them ....from tiny to large...I am thinking you might be able to also find them at a craft store ...the make of them is Craft Medley and they are called Zip-lock Polybags ...def look in the craft aisles of any dollar store or craft store or walmart if that doesnt work try searching the name on google and see what comes up. Hope this helps! -
Hahaha -- that was me after my fitting on Tuesday! I pretty much threatened all my bridesmaids!! Nobody was allowed to forward or post or show anyone the pics of me in my dress lol. I will post a pic shortly...it was such a relief that the dress fit!!! (i had ordered it 2 sizes smaller then I was lol) Big relief!!!

Ya definitely wait to start your bags...at least til you have a good idea how many ppl are coming. We have 34 booked and confirmed but another 8 that we won't know if they are coming until two weeks before the wedding...that part sucks because I am having trouble knowing how many tables, seat charts, bags I had to buy more, chairs for deco etc to order Lol

Marcia is staying right through my reception to the end of the night...she doesn't put a time limit on the day as she likes to capture all the major events for the wedding...cutting the cake, first dance, father daughter dance etc... Most photogs give you only 3 or 5 or full day package (8hrs) but depending on what time your getting married at that wont cover right through to the reception so most photographers ask you to do the first dance right away, and then cutting the cake, and then leave...unless you arrange to pay for them to stay straight through the reception. I spoke to Marcia and told her what i was looking for and then we set a very fair price, she is very flexible and great to deal with...You just have to talk to her and let her know your expectations.

Are you serious??? Wow ....and I paid for all 4 of us and spoke to the "groups manager" ...I have family and friends with them and i still got a better deal with itravel2000 believe it or not...really made me mad. I will see what i can do, but I assume they'll give me some feedback that it was a promotion at the time etc.... I booked in November last year...and our dates for travel were off by 2 weeks apparently ...if we left on the June 1st then we would get it. I call BS on that LOL

Lol Lol Danielle, I got engaged this past November ...a lil over 4 months ago..and getting married this May-- I'd never recommend to anyone to get married and Plan a wedding in under 6 mths...even if it is destination...unless you have all the time in the world I wish I was enjoying all the DIY and planning but there's no time to enjoy...lol. We decided to get married sooner then later so that we could start trying for a baby as well. This is my FI second marriage, he has 2 kids (ages14 & 12) and we're getting up there in age...so have to move quick. I thought being destination would be easier for planning but after all this I wonder lololol still worth it in the end, I'm so excited for the wedding week!! Today I got all my vista print items and was like a kid n christmas openng all the stuff i am so excited about the OOT bags!!!

Danielle --she has been wonderful -- and I got the videographer in my contract with her...and it was way more affordable. Newrorbride, here is her contact information and she has a website so you can see her work... it's beautiful. Make sure you let her know I referred you (Kerry Doyle) --I'll be seeing her in just 6 weeks!!! She will take good care of you --I know I felt very relieved I had chose her Marcia E. Roberts (JA) 876 280 9636 (US) 718 406 0119 www.jamaicanphotography.com Good luck ladies!

Check out Michaels --they have great embellishments --I added quite a few to my invites, and other docs that were destination wedding themed
-
Lol, you sound just like me --I am down 22 right now and need another 18 before flying out! I ordered my dress 2 sizes smaller then I was measured too so I am praying that tomorrow's fitting goes ok --I am SOOOO nervous!!
-
I have my first fitting tomorrow at 11am ---so nervous and excited!!!!
-
P.s. I like the natural waist for you
-
I am having the same thing --my sash is all rhinestones and crystals and being sewn in ...I am doing the empire...but only because my tummy isnt the most flattering part of this body --I need to draw the attention more to my "girls" hahahahahahaha
-
TOO CUTE!!! Altho wrong team I'd love to wear my FI favorite team but just can't do it ---I'm an avid AVID hockey fan and our teams are the biggest rivals ...Bruins vs Habs LOL

They were only offerign it unfortunately for the Bride and Groom if your bookings was done by a certain date and you were traveling between June 1, 2013- December 2013..... so I missed the free upgrade along with e $500 Honeymoon voucher from Sunwing by 2 weeks --which was a VERY big disappointment to me --and I asked them to consider it --and they said NO. Depsite me having over 30ppl booked with them. You think it would kill them to upgrade the Bride & Groom at least who brought them 30 bookings.

Hey Bonnie, I searched Brampton and orangeville high and low at every single dollar store in search of these before I bought my bags from Vistaprint this week - so sorry...i had really wanted them too ....if your looking for an alternative though Vistaprint...I got mine at 33% off plus the more you buy the cheaper they get) and i saw they had site wide sale yesterday (not sure it`s still on) for 40% off everything --so if you can they are actually an excellent quality! I got mine this morning and am very happy with them and the quality -they are going to make a great beach bag for the guests!!! Hope this helps!

Hi Yassy, Same reason we also went with Marcia was the quality. Marcia also negotiated or was most flexible from all of the photo vendors we spoke to (spoke to Brian, Mischa, Stacey Clarke, all of whom I loved their work) ..Marcia pays the vendor fees and she is bringing her 2nd photographer and videographer who are all at her cost as well. So although we may be paying a tiny bit more (I truthfully am not even sure that we actually are paying anymore though considering everything we are getting and the price we negotiated) then the ROR photog...regardless I thought based on the pics I seen that the outside vendor was worth any extra we were potentially going to pay. Like Danielle the pics were very important to us.
-
Yup, that`s what the store manager told me...you have to order and pay for it upfront but had I known that ahead of time i would have done that.
-
Np at all I`ve heard a few ladies tell me that the hotel was going to charge to hand deliver each bag to each room ...so I just arranged a welcome dinner the first night to hand them out.
-
I went to Buffalo for some stuff and depending on what you are looking to put in there I thought it was worth it ...for the Advil & Aleeve, the dollar tree store by the Niagara Falls USA outlets had great stuff..I got all my snacks there...literally everything is only $1 or less...I would have gotten Aloe Vera travel size and the Dramamine if I had thought of it at the time...and something good to knwo if you need alot of something you can order online from the Dollar Tree in US and they will hold it at the store for you
-
With Sunwing it was $80 each and we got the extra luggage, the extra space seats-more leg room and priority check-in before others...so I upgraded the kids and the FI and I so that i got the 2 extra luggages LOL
-
Thanks Kal520, sounds like our groomsmen will be pretty much the same...I`m just worried the FI isn`t going to be dressed up enough....he really didn`t want to be much different then guys so the long sleeve linen and better quality pant to make it a little more dressy was all I could convince him of LOL
