I really like your birdcage idea, they make some fabulous ones. I'm always so jealous of how great girls with short hair look with a birdcage. Have you seen any hairstyles you love yet?

    I have very straight Asian hair, but I've been loving this bride's wedding hair for a long time and hope that it'll work on me as well. She's just so beautiful

Thats about it. No dress yet! agghhh! Rachel - I wish I could've tried to make my own real touch flower bouquets but I'm not the craftiest of people. I got mine from Bloom Bridal, their work really looks amazing. I'll post a few pictures when they arrive. I think the dress was the hardest part for me, so don't worry, at least your wedding isn't until June. You've got plenty of time still girl. How are people handing out their OOT bags? Before the wedding, on check-in, having the resort do it? I saw a quote on our resort's wedding coordination spreadsheet and they said they'd charge $20 per room to hand out items for us. There's got to be a mistake there. If that's the case, we'll just go visit everyone's room ourselves.

It's a place where you order different colored glass beads, we would pour them into a vase at the ceremony like you would sand. And then you send the beads back in and they melt down the glass to form these beautiful glass creations (figurines, vases, etc). I love that it's something we can keep forever and, god forbid it breaks, we can just send it back in to be melted together again, lol! Wow that's beautiful!!! Thank you for the ideas! I really like the hand ceremony as well. I also really like the idea of the sand ceremony with the picture frame inside. Oh the decisions decisions

My goal is to hit 150 by the end of the week Hi girls, I've been on this site for so long and am only starting now for our January 2014 wedding to get 150 posts so I can see some of the templates that the girls are posting. How's the planning going? So far, I only have a few things checked off my list: - supplies for barefoot sandals for OOT bags - tumblers for our guests - Bridesmaids dresses - Groomsmens clothes - My dress (thinking about getting a second dress for dancing, did anyone else do that?) - Groom's clothes - flower girl dress - real touch flowers for bridal party and decor I'm slowly starting to feel myself worry. Ahhhhhh This forum has been keeping me sane though, so a big thanks to the girls here!

Hi MCBride3, From my understanding is that once you do the legal ceremony in Mexico, you're good to go. Based on this site, it looks like you just need to come back and register your marriage with the license. I put a link to the source I was reading down below. http://www.weddingsbylomastravel.com/requirements/

You girls rock, I found the Dollarama tumblers this week because of your suggestions. I'm thinking of printing the week's schedule on some fancy paper in our colours to put in the cups (our take on a message in a bottle) and buy some waterproof labels to print the guest names/nicknames on them so they don't get mixed up at the bar. 0/48 cups done so far... (I'm slacking a bit)

    Yayyy!! I'm soo excited to try to make these for my guests as well. I bought some shambala beads off of DHGate.com, but will be keeping an eye out for some great deals at Michaels whenever their coupon comes out. Thank you so much for posting this.

    Hi there, I'm interested in the green lidded cups, but I need more than 8. Do you happen to have more than 8?

    Thank you soo much for sharing. I feel the exact same way about our budget. We're headed to Azul Sensatori in January and budgeting has been so difficult. Having this budget breakdown is helping to calm my nerves. I'm going to start a similar table. Thanks again!

    We're going with the travel agency Thomas Cook/Bellair Travel with agent Louise Wheeler in Toronto (Yonge/Eglinton area). First impression, she's amazing. We had originally got a quote from a DW Coordinator and the rates for the guests were very high. When we contacted Louise, she had all the contacts with the airlines and hotels. She conferenced them in right away while we were on the phone. Her quotes came back over $150 cheaper per person and she confirmed our wedding date/venue right away with the resort. 1.5 hours later, we got a better group rate, venue, and wedding date all booked and confirmed. I think I'll go back to her when we decide to plan a honeymoon as well.

    Kristie, those look beautiful!!! From what I've been reading, a lot of brides brought their flowers as carry on items because of horror stories of checked luggage being thrown into cargo and crushing the flowers.

    Hi Emfayed, I was curious about the ceremony as well and came across this youtube video showing the ceremony. I watched it with FI and we decided it wasn't for us but it definitely looks like a memorable ceremony for the couple and for all of the guests. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bnk5plQW9w8

    Hi April, We are just looking into booking our wedding for February 2014 now. I like the date you chose, (it's my birthday! ). I've been searching around for more info about this Smore's party and haven't had too much luck. Have you heard any more about this? - Melissa

    You did such a great job, thank you for sharing.

    Hi ladies, It's been a while since the last update about this company. Has anyone booked with them recently and how was your experience? We are on the fence about booking with a DW Vendor. Maybe we're just over-estimating ourselves in thinking we can do it ourselves.
