We haven't made it back there to try anything else,

We did it as a welcome dinner, not a rehearsal. We didn't have a rehearsal at all, though I wish I had run one quickly. I don't think your minister would be there, just your bridal party.

What exactly is "dorado profiteroles"? Desserts are my favorite part of the meal so I want to be sure that its something I like. Thank you for being so helpful!!

I thought I'd focus on the ones of the resort/set up for this thread: 

 

ceremony site (Gazebo 55) - I brought the lanterns, chair sashes and parasols. got the wooden aisle runner from Lomas: 

 

 

Table setting - I brought the votives, table runner, frame w/ table number and all of the shells. Rented the vases from Lomas and they filled with sand ($30 each): 

 

 

 

The cupcakes - chocolate & vanilla w/ cream cheese icing (YUM). I brought the stand and the cupcake toppers (paper on lollipop sticks - super easy DIY!)

 

FYI - there are pictures of all the food in the slide show. 

 

I brought the paper straws w/ banners too: 

 

 

Here's a wide shot of Tucanes - we brought all of the paper lanterns w/ the DIY LEDs. We had enough to go all away around the palapa, and it looked awesome!

Everything looks perfect!! Where did you get your lanterns & how many did you need to go all the way around Tucanes? Also, how did you travel with all of your decorations?

I will have to count how many lanterns we had - I honestly don't remember lol I would guess somewhere around 40ish. I bought them all from Luna Bazaar. http://www.lunabazaar.com

 

They did a FANTASTIC job with the set up. I had a list, and she went through the bags and then would ask me what I wanted them to do with other things that I forgot on my list, but had packed away. 

 

We brought everything in suitcases. We picked up some cheap luggage sets from sales at Macy's, mostly for the big bag, but it also had a couple of smaller suitcases. All I can say is that now we have more luggage than we'll ever need! lol 

 

All of the lanterns, parasols, the basket, chair sashes and table runners went in a 29" suitcase that my mom brought. I had all of the OOT bags, paper items and favors with us in 3 smaller suitcases. Coming back, I packed my dress in one bag, tucked that suitcase inside the 29" bag, and then we packed the rest up. 

 

In total, we had 6 suitcases - 2 for our clothes, 4 for wedding "stuff", plus my dress. So coming back we had 5 suitcases, and the dress was in one of those bags. 

 

I will be working to sell the lanterns, chair sashes, table runners, shells, starfish and the misc. leftovers I have. I'm hoping I'll get them all posted next week
