  1. We're back too, and it was amazing! If anyone is thinking about doing it here I would highly recommend it. I totally agree that the wedding coordinators were great, and so was everyone else that worked there
  2. We're doing bubbles, it seems really fun. I really like the way the wands look in everyone's pics though so that's a really good idea. If you want to DIY there's instructions on oncewed.com for ribbon wands
  3. Good idea! I can't find the exact one anymore, but they look kind of like these ones: SALE Coloured Paper Hand Fans - $1.50 - Weddingfavours.ca They're pink and they have a white hearts design on the paper fan part.
  4. So I thought that it might be cute (and a lot cheaper) to have my BMs carry fans instead of bouquets. I bought some cute pink fans online, but now I'm thinking that I should add something to them to dress them up a bit or make them pop a little more. Any ideas? Thanks!

One thing I have learned through this whole DW experience, is that the people who you think you can count on - disappoint - and the people you expect to bail - book. **shrugs**. One of my friends had a DW last year about this time and told me the same thing. I didn't totally believe her until these last few months. You're so soon! Yes, I know what you mean about the disappointments with people you thought were for sure, and there are definitely some unexpected surprises with other people going really out of their ways to make sure they come.
  6. thanks ladies, I just needed to vent and see if I was over reacting or not. I think I'll give her til the end of this month and then have a chat and see. Bunny, I hope your mom books soon and gets her passport, that would be even more stressful! Silverangel, that's so cool that we're date twins! It's coming up so soon! I definitely know what you mean about it being amazing no matter what happens though

I'm thinking you can use the stencil (maybe even with a marker) and then paint over it? hmm yeah that would probably work if I can get small enough letters, I guess I would have to do the letters one at a time then. I'll try and take a look this weekend and see what I can find
  8. hmm I also want to wear my dress again for the AHR, I am hoping that it will be fine if it gets rinsed right after and then dry cleaned when we get home. If I do get another dress just for this though, what style of dress do people think looks best in TTD photos?
  9. So, I'm not sure if I'm over reacting, but the wedding is in 2 months and one of the BMs has not booked yet. She keeps saying she's going to do it soon, and I know it's a lot of $ to put down but now I'm starting to get worried that by the time she does book the flight will be sold out. I have a couple other people that say they are definitely coming, but have also not booked yet... I guess there's really nothing I can do about it but hope they can come...It's also sort of annoying too because I'm trying to have all the OOT bags and dinner choices and stuff planned out but can't do any of theirs until they actually book I guess.
  10. I did a search, so I hope there isn't already a thread about this... Has anyone been on any excursions from Cayo Coco or Cayo Guillermo? Just wondering what one did you do and how was it. I found some stuff on the sunwing website, but it's pretty generic
  11. I think you will be ok, I'm arriving Sunday and getting married Tuesday so I think it is 2 days in between that matters
  12. Lol glad I saw this thread, I don't think I would have thought of this until it was too late and the wedding had started!
  13. Lol I pictured mine in a tan suit too but he demanded navy blue! I think we sort of have to let them do what they want since we pretty much pick everything else. I think it will look nice though, especially with the groomsmen with fuscia ties
  14. So I bought these really nice wine glasses and I wanted to do glass etching on the base to personalize them for part of my bridemaid gifts. I was planning to use painters tape and cut out the letters from it and sort of use that as a template to put the etching cream on. I'm a little worried because I'm not sure how to cut out the letters nicely, should I try and print out nice letters and then use an exacto knife to cut out the shapes? Or if the whole tape thing not what I should be doing in the first place? Has anyone done this before or have any ideas? Thanks!
  15. I ended up getting the dollarama ones, they are pretty small though. I wish I could get the good ones but I have over 30 people coming :S They did have these other things at dollarama that are pretty big though, they're not mugs but they're sort of like plastic mini kegs with a straw attached and a handle, maybe you could get those and somehow personalize them?
  16. Great ideas! I've been wondering what to do, and now I definitely have some more to think about. So far we've been planning to have some kind of get together at our house the Friday night before we leave Sunday morning, and then a welcome dinner in Cuba but I will definitely be using some of these ideas to make it more fun!
  17. We're doing a candy buffet too! We're also making wine as favours, one of types is a tropical sangria - I thought it would sort of tie in to the island theme
  18. I've been thinking of trying these for our AHR too, glad to know they are easy to make! I was a little worried about how to hang them, but I think the tape trick is a good idea

If you go to the vistaprint site you sign up as a member and every couple days you get emails with offers for free products, you just pay the shipping. If you pick the slowest shipping it still gets to you pretty quickly. You can get all kinds of things for free, and they have alot of designs you can choose from to put on your items or you can upload your own pictures (comes as a free offer sometimes). Just a warning - it's so addictive!
