  3. Thanks for the info. As well for those in the GTA, P&G has their warehouse sale until the 25th. I got sunscreen and other stuff for really cheap. The sale is at the Int'l Centre (Derry & Airport - Hall 3).
  4. DLyteful, I'm a Jamaican now living in Canada, and I make the trip home at least once a year so here's my two cents. Stick with the CC and cash. So far everyone's advice is good re: taking lots of singles. At the airport it should never cost more than $5 to tip baggage handlers. Before you leave the airport, get yourself some J$, it will always save you money in the end. The Bureau de Change is located in the Departure Lounge, Immigration Hall and Ground Transportation Hall. Their tel876) 979-2673. It's also best to carry J$ to the craft markets and tourist attractions, and keep it separate from your US$. If you feel like venturing outside the hotels to exchange money, the best place to go is Grace Kennedy Remittance/FX Trader. They usually have the best deal. If you go to the Bank, Jamaica National offers one of the best rates. Otherwise, if you use US$, just have an idea of the exchange rate in the back of your mind as reference. If you've got anything else you want to know, just ask. I'd be more than happy to give you info. Jamie.
  5. Welcome Liz and Happy Planning!
  6. Has anyone every used wedorama? I like their flash site best so far and was wondering if anyone had any experience with the site. TIA. Jamie
  7. Just though I'd share my good news... a high school buddy of mine (in Jamaica) plays in a steel band so I contacted her about having the band play during our ceremony and cocktail hour. Well she just emailed me to say that the band is booked and since they're non-profit, they don't get paid; all I have to do is feed them. SWEET! I can't tell you how excited I am considering everything else costs 15 million dollars!!!!!
  8. My caterer suggested at least 3 per person, so I think 5 is more than enough. You need to leave room for dinner.
  9. I was browsing the internet looking for a template and came across this site. It has a wealth of templates, fonts, clip art and other resources that are useful to us DIYers, so I thought I'd share. Take a look. I hope you find something worth using. Wedding Planning Jamie.

    Welcome to the forum!
  13. Awww, thanks everyone. Quote: Originally Posted by 2008bride they look great. Where did you get the format from? Did you design it yourself? I have been looking for a card format myself. I started with a template Aylee shared with me for Fan Programs and modified it to make the STD's. Let me know if you'd like a copy.

  15. I'm almost finished with my STDs and I'm hoping you'll all tell me what you think before I start putting them together. I'll be printing them on heavy cream coverstock, cutting them along the gray outline and stringing green satin ribbon (to match the green in the card) through the hole at the top. TIA, J.
  16. Alainna and happy planning.
  17. Welcome back Mrs. Wilson. I got goosebumps! It was all so beautiful.
