Traci's Planning Thread

[MoBayBride2B]

Ok! So the STDs were sent out 3 weeks ago.  We used an electronic version that provided a link to our wedsite.  We've actually had about 20 people book with our travel agent already so that is pretty exciting.

 

I have ordered oversized postcards to use for our welcome booklet cover. (vistaprint of course)

 

I found a great deal on badge holders on ebay- I got 50 for about $10.

 

I have become a stalker at the Dollar Tree...they have really cool things but you just have to look or keep checking back.

I have pretty much created my centerpieces for about $5 a table from items at the Dollar Tree.

 

I am still working on making my 150 but as soon as I get there I will post pics.

 

Thanks!

Like the idea about the oversized postcards for the booklet cover. What size do they come in?

[MoBayBride2B]

They are about 8.5 x 5.5 in.  They are really nice.  They were having a special where you get 50 for free so I only paid about $6 for shipping.

 

I also had a Living Social voucher that allowed $50 of stuff for $10, so I just ordered some labels that I am using on our travel mugs.  I'll let you guys know how those turn out once I receive them.

Got my dress in today!!  I purchased it from Preownedweddingdresses.com.  The young lady ordered it but then changed her venue so they dress was never worn or altered. 

 

I was really worried about going this route but I am glad I did, it's beautiful!!!

JayKay~ I will as soon as I am able.  Unfortunately, when I try to upload pics they just come up as a link and I'm not sure if others are able to see so I am going to wait until I hit my 150.

Aquamaniac~ Just a FYI...Vistaprint is offering the oversized postcards for free again today.
