Message in a Bottle Seating Cards

[MrsWeiss1211]

Just got my vials!

 

I ordered 45 and 5 arrived chipped or broken but specialitybottle.com is replacing them free of charge.  

 

They are actually much bigger than I expected but still perfect for the seating cards.  

 

We're getting hit by a hurricane this weekend so it provides the perfect time for me to work on them

I just received my vials and they are perfect size!  Can't wait to get them going and post some pics

Such a cute idea!  I can't wait to see pics from you ladies so I can decide if I want to to do this as well.

I showed it to my florist and she's agreed to provide the glass bowl and sand. And since they are so cute, my fiancée and I decided to use the as a guest book of sorts. We're going to have the guest's name and table number on one side and then have them write a message (like a wish or piece of advice) on the other side.

We've toyed with a few ideas on what to do with them after the wedding. I love the idea of reading 1per year and then throwing it into the ocean.

While at work I've decided to print out some of my escort cards and see how they work!  The cork is MUCH bigger than I thought it was going to be...but it's still cute!  I bought fun "rustic" paper at Hobby Lobby, but the color will blend in too much with the sand once it's all put together.  So I'll probably just go with plain white paper!  And I put it next to my lip gloss so people can see the size.  Thoughts?

Ooo i love this idea! Let us know how it works out!! i was worried it may be a pain for guests to open them??

No they are so easy!  It looks really small but it's bigger in person. I can get the paper in and out no problem!
