Barefoot jewellery for all the ladies

A key chain bottle opener

That's it so far but ill probably still pick up

Sudoku or crossword books

Pens

Playing cards

I feel the bags are more geared towards the ladies so I want to find something small for the guys but have no idea what!?

Holy Cracker Jacks! I wish I were one of your guests...these bags sound awesome. For the guys you could get shotglasses and mini liq bottles from somewhere in town. Good luck and thanks for the ideas!

I swear you have some of the funniest sayings I have ever heard. They put a smile on my face every time I read them.

Thanks for posting, it reminded me to ask a question that i've need an answer to:

 

Are satin dinner napkins weird?  I love the look of satin, because I feel that it dresses things up a bit especailly compared with the alternate option of polyester.  But for some reason I can't imagine eating with one (probably because I never have), does material matter here? I've just decided to opt for napkins to infuse a bit more color. Silly question, but any opions would be appreciated.

I agree that satin looks nicer however I don't they are very absorbent. I really have no idea though. Lol

I won mine on Facebook from Maracas Mexico (formerly Mishka Designs), and I love them, but I only won 20.  It just so happened a friend of ours was travelling to PV and was able to pick them up for us, otherwise the shipping to MR was almost $100!  Not sure what we're going to do with 20 of them, when we have 40 guests, so suggestions are welcome!  I was thinking of just putting a few on each table with the "Shake Me" tags, and anyone could pick them up...?

I think that is a good idea!  I think that some people will think they are really fun and pick them up and others won't really care!  You could also put the in the welcome bags of the people who you think would enjoy them....

btw, for those looking for plane tix, it looks like they did drop now that the holidays are over at least from NYC they have.  Tix to Grand Cayman dropped back down over $120 less than they were right before x-mas
