Wow nice job it looks like you had a fantastic day CONGRATS!

Great job!! Everything looks amazing.

I was wondering.. how did you get that many mini tequila bottles? you bought them all at home and saved them as you went along?

[Cherina]

Adorable. Good job

Everything came out so beautiful! The felt balls are great

Where did you get the welcome bags? I've been looking around but haven't seen the same quality as the ones you found.

Your felt balls are amazing! So cute

Thanks everyone!!

 

I got the bottles from Coronne.com and also the plastic sealers to seal the bottles. i printed the diy labels from ruffled.com. i only filled the bottles in the resort. As for the bags, I got them from a wholesale site from China..I had to order 100 minimum..I have about 30 or so extra bags, extra water bottles and extra travel pillows...so if anyone is interested..email me:) my email is [email protected]..

The bag is by far the best quality I have found so far..it is all lined inside so even if the bag got wet..everything is dry inside..and it closes with a zipper:)..everyone loved the oot bags:)

it might work with tulle..try it!! the most difficult part was cutting the circles!! it took 15 circles to make one ball... but it was great..i also had them on my tables.. they look cute.

The ones i used for the ceremony i stringed it with my husband's fishing lines.. after the wedding..i brought it to the trash the dress...cant wait to see how that turned out.

Thanks!  I ended up playing around with it and getting something I like in the end!  They are much bigger, but that's because I bought 9" tulle circles pre-cut..it saved me a lot of work.  Thank you SO MUCH for the inspiration.  Here's how mine turned out - it looks more like a loofah in this picture than it does in real life.  Haha.  I'm going to put thicker ribbon on them once it arrives in the mail, which will help.  And half of  them will be navy - should look less like loofahs.

Oh, but with tulle, it takes a LOT of circles.  Well and because these are big.  But I used 100 on this ball.
