good question. i'm not exactly sure. I will ask Heather and get back to you. I know you can bring your own coloured sand...and probably the resort can provide the vases, but will definitely charge you. because there is a fee for everything!! haha.

Blood tests are $90 each, to be paid IN CASH to the doctor.

 

Jill… best wishes!!  I cannot wait to hear about how amazing your wedding was!

 

We had private shuttle service.  Cancun Valet.  I highly recommend them.

 

For the sand ceremony, we brought our own colored sand and vases.  We used a vase picture frame for the centerpiece and dumped the sand into that.  So the layers of sand were the background to a picture of us.

We brought the vases and the blue sand down with us, you can buy really beautiful vase sets (at Michaels).  TIseege the vase picture sounds amazing!! I've never seen one before..

Sunshine2680 did you pour the 2 sands into the frame originally or did your pour the 2 sands in a larger vase initially and then transffered to the frame? I'm just wondering how brides transferred the 2 mixed sand back home without losing the original design/shape of the poured sand. know what I mean?

I haven't gotten married yet - ha ha- i the frame comes with a lid on it but I will probably end up carrying it on the plane just to be safe!
Not sure what other brides have done - maybe Tlseege can give us some pointers!
