There is a picture and a small explanation of how we know the people. We have 40 people going, so I thought it would be nice for them to see ahead of time who else is going. I plan to send these with my welcome letters.

Amy, I'm nowhere near starting it yet, but I have a template for it somewhere (I can't seem to find it just now). I was going to include a few pages in a duotang I'll be sending out with all of the guests that are going, maybe a picture and a fun fact if I have one ... something that is hopefully a conversation starter...but it went something like this..

(PICTURE IF AVAILABLE) The Smith Family - Courtney and Aaron have known Joe, Jane and Jack Smith for over 10 years now - they were Courtney's neighbours when she was a child. Did you know that Jane Smith was in the '88 olympics, or that Jack is a 3-time consecutive spelling-bee champion?

That way when the guests get there, they feel a little bit more like they know eachother. Mark Jones can go up to Jane Smith and say "holy crap, you were in the olympics?" and it's a perfect icebreaker! Ugh... I'll see if I can find the template, I can't remember where I've saved it (or on which computer!)

That sounds like an awesome idea! Unfortunately I don't have pics of all of our guests. I have thought about a cool way to seat guests at the Welcome Dinner... according to how they know either of us.

 

EX. If you've known the bride since birth sit here. Hoping it'll be a conversation started.

 

I'd love to see your finished product!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
