Congratulations!!!

This site can definitely be a little overwhelming at times. So many great ideas & info on here. Happy planning!!!

 

@beachbum21 - Congrats!! When do you plan on sending invites? Lucky you already have people booking lol! This is the hard part for me!

We are getting married May 5th 2012 (Cinco de Mayo!) at Ceiba del Mar...choosing a place was the MOST difficult part (I hope!) looking forward to all the next steps and planning!! 

Any BTB from NYC or Salt Lake City? I lived in NY for 12 years and will be back living there at the end of the year but my FI is from SLC, so we are here now. 

 

Happy to connect with all of you 2012 Brides!

I'm making them myself right now, am going to send out boarding pass save the dates/invites and direct people to a wedsite to RSVP.  There will be info on the travel agent and where to go to book. Once I know who is coming and have details around welcome party/gathering, wedding location (ie, beach), time, etc... i'm making passport books for those that are coming and will probably send them out right before we go.  If you need a template on the boarding passes, i can send you mine! I was hoping to mail them but looks like i might be hand delivering! lol

They look great Sharon, embrace your DIY and don't let FI get you down!!! Mine has had hard seeing the "vision" as someone else mentioned but I know when everything's finished hes always like... you did that?!

They are a bit small but I am thinking maybe get some kind of colored paper & put in between the front & back to make it a little bigger. Not sure if that would look ok. I still have to get the tag holders too. 

 

 

 

I also created Maraca tags. For these I was just going to punch a hole & tie them with some kind of stringribbon. They look a bit cheesy though. FI thought they were lame & laughed!

 

 

Thoughts? Should I just bag trying to do DIYvista print projects?!? LOL!

 

 

 

Love the vest look!! What does Mike think?  I've been away for a bit sorry I haven't gotten back to you!!!!

Love pink!!!!!! I think it will look great, so many brides are doing the peacock thing, it makes me want to!!! I was out with my mom yesterday at the wholesalers looking for decor stuff and they had great peacock feathers!!!!

see this is the problem when you get to plan a year in advance, i just dont know if these are too much together..or in the right amount of each will it still look good???!!!! here are my colour boards let me know what everyone thinks. the table runner also comes in hot pink and white/burnt orange and white

 

 

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Did you end of going with Pauline or another TA?  Howd all the booking stuff go? ACV or nolitours?? I am so curious and excited for you!!!!!!!

I made mine myself too! Mine was a very simple invite on white card stock but I also included a flyer in bright colours with all the travel info and I included our website as well. Unfortunately no one is RSVP on the website but my TA sends me an email every week with people that have booked. Hopefully you get better results with your RSVP's.
