Fabulous bags and a very green option, which I like. It's nice that they can keep using the bags.

Have you checed out model making websites?

Thank you this is great information.

Speaking of facial issues and skin sensitivity. I found out that I was allergic to benzoyl peroxide. At first the reaction was small but ended up almost like a welt. Anyway, I through out the over the counter stuff and started using Murad which has been fabulous for me. I found that working out with low weights 5-10lbs with high reps burns the most fat and toned my arms. Mind you, I have not kept to the program. But I have started to walk to work or home at least four times a week. But I like the idea of the blog encouraging others to hang in there. I need the motivation. Thanks all.

Have a wonderful wedding. Enjoy every minute and enjoy!

Great pictures!

Home at last! too funny.

The last time I was in Mexico - I used an internet cafe to go on line to contact my office. Pick up emails, etc. Note that he key board was made for Spanish and not English. If I were you I would call the resort and check. I managed but it wasted time trying to figure out the key board. Good luck!

Today was crazy and before I new it was dark. Only walked for 30 minutes. C'est la vie. I will try to be better tomorrow.

Welcome from a DC resident getting married in Costa Rica!

Gosh I am tired just from typing this list! Ahhh, so much to do. Great thread its good just to start the list.

welcome and congratulations!

You look great!!!!!

That sounds crazy! I would call them.

I was debating the same thing. I went to a fabulous wedding on the Eastern shore and that couple did one bag per room. And I thought it was fine as a guest. My only suggestion would be if they are singles sharing a room if you are doing bottled water I would put 2 in their bags. Good luck!

Great idea. They are very pretty!

I love your parasols. I was thinking of doing them in my colors, blue brown and ivory along with the Chinese laterns. A friend used parasols to conceal her wedding dress until she walked down the aisle, her brides maids held them. It was very pretty. Wonderful job.

Attachment 1932 Great thread - I too have latched on to the star fish theme. Here are some images for inspiration. I have to photograph my STD's. A friend designed them and did a fabulous job. My favorite part is the star fish star fish ctr pc.ppt

So I did it again! I walked to and from work today. Two days in a row. I figure I have to get there anyway - its about 2.5 miles each way. And takes about 40 minutes. I have to walk faster!

OK, so I am in the initial stages of planning our fabulous DW in Costa Rica. Needless to say, I have become obsessed with this blog (and others). I am a planner at heart so I don't want to start any projects until I can figure out how I am going to get it to Costa Rica - it's a control thing. How are you getting your DIY projects, accessories, decorations to you destination, and the ever growing OOT bags. Are you distributing amongst friends or sending it down early or buying it there. The real question is - how many bags is too many?

this is my dress David's Bridal - Bridal Gowns T9512 Allover beaded lace trumpet with illusion halter neckline and matching sash. i used the chocolate brown sash.

Kriswim , Please provide me with a review of your trip! Have a wonderful vacation!

Welcome! I had a fabulous vacation at the Royal Hideaway at the Occidental in Cancun. For a small wedding this might be fun although it is a bit of a splurge. Good Luck!

Fabulous idea. I wanted to make my MOH's welcome bag special this might be the added touch. Great find!
