YeH @@calgarybride2015

Even though I will feel lost after the wedding with planning and having that to occupy my time. I am going to look forward to getting my spare room back. Nathan thinks I will be sad after the wedding cause I have nothing to plan then. But I am starting in some photography right now and learning it and have bought some equipment and hopefully change that spare room into a little studio once I get going with it. So at least I have that as a hobby after the wedding is over. Right now the wedding has been my hobby for months.

@@kcole123 Don't know if you are still looking for something to add to your bridesmaids gift but I Just got the best deal and had to share with someone! I got these bikini bags for my bridesmaids at the gap outlet 30% off plus I had another 40% off email coupon.

@@calgarybride2015 It's finally warming up here supposed to get upto 0 today... Lol... I'm MFing tired of winter!

 

@@kcole123 love the shirts!!!

 

@@acw271011 a bikini bag is just a water proof bag to put your wet bathing suit in... It's perfect for my bridesmaids because on the last day we don't leave the resort until 4 or 5pm so this way we can still swim without worrying about packing a wet swim suit back in our bags... I they only had 4 left so I couldnt get one for me ... I'll just have remember to bring a large ziplock bag

Ok girls just signed up for this Wedpics thing. Reason: seen it advertised on Facevook and it was free. Looks like guests can post photos? Not too sure how it works yet. That's where you guys come in. How will I let guests know? Welcome brochure? Mention it at welcome dinner? Would like to do something fun. Like a scavenger hunt game for pics. Got any templates? Or ideas?

I this could be a great idea and fun for guests.

I recently just made an account on Wedpics as well. From what I understand, you can tell your guests to download the app, and give them your username that you created, and your guests can just upload the photos as they take them to that specific account. Do you have a wedding website? If you do you could always add it there. Also I think adding it to your welcome Letter is a good idea.  I know it might not work for you because your wedding is so close, but I also know that Wedpics will print business cards for you with all the information. That might be an idea if they will get to you in time.

We used wed pics. I'd say 5 ish guests actually used it but was still nice to get a copy of their pics.

 

I signed up early on so I had our info in our pre travel brochure and for our welcome gifts I had a business card printed thru vistaprint. You can actually get the 'template' off wed pics for free and just print them yourself too or upload to vistaprint, etc.

 

I'd say anytime now you communicate with your guests - pre travel email? Wedding website? Welcome letter? Maybe a sign on your guest book table? Just bring it up

 

Wed pics also offers a printing service of the cards but it's uber pricey. Thankfully a member on here showed me how to get the template so I could use vistaprint
