I had a hard time with this as well. I put "beach formal" on my invitations. I'm sending a brochure out as the wedding gets closer and I'll include more specifics like woman can wear sundresses and men can wear collared shirts with pants. Does anyone have a better suggestion?

I just sent out my mailers last week, and everyone loved them.

 

I said this for the attire....

 

Wedding Wear is "Beach Chic Relaxed"

Sundresses, short sleeve shirts, khakis, keep it comfortable and relaxed.

 I will try to attach my flier.

lholcomb! I leave 2 weeks from today too!! YAY so close!!!

 

Okay so I did a calla lilly boutonierre for my fiance, dad, his dad, my brother, and groomsman. The mother of the groom I did a wrist crosage...my mom wanted to carry a long stem flower so I had 3 ivory calla lillies tied together.

 

I'm going to try to upgrade us to First Class for our flight hoping that will help with carrying my dress on the plane, I'm more worried about that than anything.

 

My welcome bags arrived yesterday I had a local company do them that does my shirts at my school and I got them for $5 each! I'm so excited!

 

I'm looking forward to being in Puerto Vallarta just relaxing!

 

I'll check out your flyer when I get home from work!

Thanks about the flowers.  My fiance did not want bout's for the groomsmen, but I think they should.  I will add the wrist corsage for his mom.

 

thanks!!
 

I still dont feel like I have enough stuff for my bridesmaids.  I did lil wrap robes, cosmetic bag, and slipper sets, their purses, I am paying for their hair and makeup, and then jewelry.  I need to find something really special for my maid of honor.  I am so not good with that stuff. 

I also dont know what to get my dad as a gift. 

 

I am really worried about the dress situation too!  I hae my step daughters too, which is a bridemaid.  We are flying Virgin and hopefully they will be helpful.

 

That is awesome about your bags.  I just to have get all the stuff for my bags now.  I kind of lagged on that part.  Oops! 

 

I am actually going to start packing today with the clothes I have and go shopping later this week for a few more things.  I think that will really help relieve some stress.

 

EEK!!  I am so ready to be there and relax too!!!!!

Where are you flying Virgin from???? So are we!!! WE fly out from San Francisco on the 27th

 

I got my bridesmaids Jewlery, that's it. I might add a little something else.

 

I got both dads a Father of the bride hat and father of the groom hat. My mom a bracelet and the mother of the groom a hankerchief.

 

My fiance is getting his groomsman sunglasses

We are flying out of SF as well!!!  on the 9:30a.m. flight!!!!!   That is crazy!!!
 

Where do you live?  I am in Gilroy.

 

Good ideas on the gifts for the family.  My fiance had personalized caricatures done.  They were awesome. 

 

WOW, what a coincidence.  We can have a prewedding cocktail on the flight to celebrate!
