I'm using Spoons, but it won't be until July 19.  I can let you know how it goes.

My question is whether anyone has used Spoons restaurant for their reception as we've got about 40 people and were planning on having it there.

 

thanks

I did hair extentions and my hair was down. The extentions were clip in. The salon did such a great job and even with the wind it held awesome. I had my brother check one last time before we walked down the aisle but so far in the picsI can't tell I have a whole set of clip in on.

 

Here is the website I got them from - Her name is sara and she is really nice

I am not sure on the up do. You might want to ask her on her site

Is anyone doing hair extensions?   I was going to buy clip ins and have my hair down (not outrageously longer then my shoulder length, just a bit) but since all of you have described the beach as super windy, I am going to have an up-do.  But I still want my hair to look thicker....

Can you have clips in and still do an up-do?

I'm not able to see the pics - could you try again?

Thanks!

Hi Ladies, I know people have asked probably all the questions I am going to ask but here are the things I need help finding websites for! If any of you ladies could send what you used/bought that would be great.

 

1) OOT bags, looking for something I can iron on our logo too - preferably cloth

2) reception decor - the hanging laterns / strand lights

3) chair bows & table cloths 

4) card stock to print menu & programs on

 

 

I would great appreciate any help XOXO

Justine - I haven't ordered them yet, but I'm going to get OOT bags from cheaptotes.com.  They have a canvas tote for $.89.  I don't have a sample of them yet, but I've heard from other girls on here that they are good quality.  I just e-mailed them to find out how much it would cost to have my custom map screen-printed on the bags.  If you're interested, I'll let you know what the quote is.....if it is cheap enough it might be worth it for you to have them print your bags instead of having to deal with the iron-ons yourself.

Great, thanks for that, I'd be interested to see how it is.  Are you having the dj after your wedding or opting for 'self entertaining' as we're torn with a smaller group as to whether it is worth it or not?

Jessie great idea! Thanks for the info and please let me know what the quote is..

I'll try replying again (as my last post had no 'quote' in it so probably made no sense at all).  Thanks for answering and I look forward to hearing how it goes.  Are you having a dj afterwards?

[MaggieandJay]

I would say you can self entertain and it's just as good. We just rented the sounde system due to the budget and I think it was just as good

Oh my GOSH! I am leaving tomorrow at 6am ladies! I can't believe it.

The time has flown by and dragged at the same time if that is even possible!

 

I am so excited and I can't wait to come back and post my photos and review for you all to see. I have been addicted to this site for months now and I just love, love, LOVE looking at everyone's pictures. I have never seen one bride who didn't look beautiful, so that calms me a little bit! lol

 

Thanks to all the past Brides for all the info and tiny details you added here....for my type A, control freak personality this site has been a godsend. I feel like I have already done a site visit! For all of you just starting out and finding this thread, I suggest (yes it takes days) but go back to the start of this thread and read through! All and I really mean ALL of your questions about lights, lanterns, number of steps down the isle, to the number of outlets at Zavas Plaza will be answered! Also, read the planning journals (my personal fav) there are some truly great ideas on there. ANd nice photos too!

Our photographer is Sweet Caribbean so if anyone else is using them or considering them, email me after the wedding and I will let you know how they were. But so far they have been really terrific to work with.

Ok so see you all when I am a married woman!
