@@marinah84 I made a bunch of extra just in case!

Has anyone found any great deals for paper lanterns? I know hobby lobby and Oriental Trading have them pretty reasonable, but before making any purchases I thought I'd check with you ladies to see if you knew of any BETTER deals.

These are so helpful! thank you

cheap Luggage is an EXCELLENT idea. I am just trying to figure out (in my head) how many bags we will need when we leave in 45 days!!! I am going to go check that out.

must get to 150!!!!

I am totally buying these!!! Thank you for sharing this amazing deal

My FI is wearing this vest and pant combo with a white button up dress shirt for our beach wedding in Mexico. http://www.perryellis.com/suits-jackets/textured-solid-suit-vest/43HV5404PS.html?prefn1=refinementColor&start=6&dwvar_43HV5404PS_color=053&cgid=pevests&prefv1=Grey The groomsmen are going to wear the same pants with a white button up dress shirt, and we are planning to get them all suspenders. I'm struggling with what type and color of shoes would go best with these pants. I'd love for everyone to be barefoot, since we will be on the beach - but they will obviously need shoes for part of the day (reception and if the sand is too hot to stand on). I thought about suggesting they choose between sandals, boat shoes or loafers...BUT WHAT COLOR!? tan? beige? camel? I'm not super in to everything matching. The girls all picked their own coral dress and are getting nude sandals. Help!!!!!

If you have the magnets already I would send it all together. If you haven't made them yet I would just do an invite

sent you a message!

He loves his black watch, but it's getting worn and he could definitely use another one.

What are your thoughts on the watch matching the ring? My FI wants a white gold ring. He currently has a nice Black watch that he loves. Should I get him a silver watch so it matches his ring, or does that matter for guys?

What do you ladies think? I finished these up last night, but still need to add clasps.

It's hard because my FI and I live 12+ hours from everyone going down to Mexico with us, so I think we will be stuck taking EVERYTHING down

Thanks ladies! I typically prefer silver over gold, but I was struggling because I liked the way gold looked.

I will definitely share a picture. My FI's grandma cannot make it (she is much older than mine) so she is going to be an "honorary flower girl" and we will give her some dried flowers and her name in the program in a memory box

@@Mrsktobe my grandma is our flower girl! We are going to an adults only resort, and my grandma mentioned once she had never been a flower girl so it works out perfectly. I helped her find a dress in my wedding colors and she is so excited - we are extremely close so I am so happy she is part of the wedding party

Those are gorgeous!

I love the 2nd one

Is it just me or are guys hard to shop for? I always have a million ideas, but my FI ALWAYS just goes and buys something when he wants it. Chances are he will have a ps4 and watch before the month is over

My girls are wearing coral dresses and the guys are wearing grey slacks. The flowers all have burlap accents and I want the girls to have a pop of color with teal/turquoise jewelry. Would their jewelry look better with gold or silver accents? I have seen cute in both

Initially I wanted one of my wedding colors so they would stand out, but the clear look good too!

@@dwbride2014 Did you get the variety pack of colors, or search them out to find one color?

@@calgarybride2015 I would love to do a "welcome event" but we have people coming Saturday - Wednesday, so we might just try to meet each group that comes in and give them their bags. Then maybe Wednesday do the bach parties, Thursday a short little rehearsal / group dinner, Friday is wedding day.

I saw some funny sayings (which would be perfect for the group going) I love a good TSA patdown. Those tiny bottles of liquor don't count. Hands off this is not your bag! These clothes won't fit you. I can't decide if I want to go the funny route, or do something related to the wedding. Would it be horrible if I just included them in the welcome bag, and didn't send them out early? They could use them on the way home at least.

I'm going to do some searching today and see if I can't find anything cheaper. I like the idea of custom cards, but I don't want to spend more on cards than on my tumblers. Okay, these are semi personalized. You can design your own, but you can't have a picture on them. http://www.nicepricefavors.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Store_Code=NPF&Screen=searchAZ&relativeSR=true&View=list&Session_ID=94f186f3aff7af5a7971618d6a3661d9&Search=playing+card&button=Search They range in prices, but are much cheaper than photo cards. This would be much easier than putting labels on your own cards, too.
