Congratulations!  I love your colors and your OOT bags.  Do you happen to remember where you got your room key holder?  I like the coil and the whistle aspect!

Thanks! I appreciate it... hmm... now I have to think about how I wanna do this

I do have a question for you if you are still checking this site at all, I see you bought your fans from oriental trading co. I was wondering, how did the sizes work out for you? I read that sizes vary slightly, so i was worried about ordering them from there, did you have any issues? Thanks!

 

Thank you! Yep, they were all slightly different in size but I remember reading that in the reviews on OT's website.... they were so cheap so I took the risk. But honestly they all worked out perfectly and the smaller ones weren't all that small but the bigger ones were borderline too big. They all worked great though! And it was a HOT day so they were all put to good use!

Thanks! I bought the coil wrist bands/whistles from Oriental Trading company and the clear pouch at ebay. I had to buy the clear pouches in bulk (50 I think) but it all ended up costing around $1-2 each.

 Thanks for getting back, I was just talking with my mom about it and had figured the same thing. DW are suppose to have a more casual atmosphere, know one will care if the fans are different sizes. I am going to order mine now!

Amazing job in planning and everything was absolutely stunning! I am actually getting married on December 1, 2010 and using the same colors. My BMs already have their watermelon colored dresses from David's Bridal and I had seen the flip flops on Dessy and considered buying them. Which color did you get them in to match the watermelon from DB?

Thanks so much!
