Try the knot.com. I saw some on there. These are on sale for $4.99, not sure if its what your looking for, but they have some others as well.

LMAO! Fancy that's exactly what I did with my TTD dress! There was SOOOO much sand in it! I hung it over the balcony to dry! We threw hubby's clothes in there too, hehe. Works great!

I'm so excited for all the gals who are planning their weddings. You are going to LOVE IT!!!!!  I swear, every bride should do a Destination Wedding

 

We had a very small number of guests - only 11 people total, so we did a HUGE "At Home Wedding Reception" at our Ranch in California for 130 people.  That was WAY CRAZIER to plan than our actual wedding in PDC

 

BTW - I wore my dress into the ocean for TTD, and I "cleaned it" - by putting it in the big jacuzzi hot tub in our room. Just filled it up, stuck the dress in, and turned on the jets!  It got all the dirt and sand and ocean water out. LOL!  Then just "hung dry"....my mom pressed it when we got home and it was perfect enough to wear for our First Dance at the At Home Wedding Reception.

 

I don't think that would have worked with a real silk dress though.....

Good idea about the "dress cleaning" ! My dress is chiffon and I'm wearing it like 3 times. One of those being our AHR.  My mom is super worried about doing the TTD session, I told her not to worry about if, if something happens then something happens what ever, there is nothing I'll be able to do about it.

what documents do we need for a legal ceremony? just our passports and tourist cards? no birth certificates?

[giraffexx]

I feel you Jess, I'm starting to feel anxious because we only have 2 and a half weeks before we leave and I feel like my to do list just keeps growing...

 

I can't wait to get there and start celebrating, enough of the planning! Thank god for wine
