So far I got 16oz acrylic double walled tumblers for the bags and the welcome booklet I made.  I would like to add one or 2 more items.  I am thinking of putting starbucks VIA ready brew in the bags.  Reviews on tripadvisor claim that the coffee at our resort is beyond drinkable.  I recently learned that starbucks now makes a ice coffee VIA ready brew too!  So I might mix and match them up.

 

I'm also going to put in magazines in all the women's/couples bags for them to read while by the pool, the fun celebrity gossip type magazines.  I'm struggling with what I can put in there for the guys though?  Any suggestions?

 

Oh and I got the girls Pashmina's (ebay, $5, they are so nice!!) but they get them at the wedding, guys get cigars.

Hi there!! Where are you two planning on getting married?!?

WOW!! You have it all figured out!! I am just just starting on this!! I absolutely LOVE the idea of doing food for the second hour!!!! I think I am going to be "stealing" that Idea from you!!!

Hey!! I am getting married at Beaches Negril also next year (2013) but in June!!! Glad to have a companion!!! I honestly have no idea about the island paradise theme as we are not using one of their specific themes for our wedding, but I'd love to talk and go through ideas with you!!!

Emma,

My FI and I are doing oot bags but we are also doing some "different things"

1) We are hand delivering these cookies ( http://luluscookies.com/order_case.htm ) to everybody at their room when they arrive

2) We are doing pashminas for all of the ladies but not in the OOT bags we are having them embroidered with each ladies name and they will be placed on the chairs at the ceremony.

3) We are also as a favor for our wedding getting little glass bottles with cork stoppers etched with the words Negril Jamaica for everybody to take some sand home with them. Those will be at our cocktail reception!!

Hope this helps!

So who is getting married at Beaches Negril and what is your date?!?! Lets start talking to each other girls!!!

We chose Beaches Negril for the fact it is SO kid friendly!!!

Something I thought would be a neat addition to the oot bags was a small glass jar with a cork lid that I am going to etch the words Negril Jamaica into for people to put sand into to take home from the beach!! What a cool thing to take home!!!

We actually got it at Sears!! The price was AWESOME we could not, not get it!! We were debating between two of them this one and a tungsten band. He decided he liked the feeling of the titanium because it is lighter.. Our grand total with a lifetime protection plan was........... drum roll please.....................$85.99!!!! It was AMAZING!! The tungsten band was $112.00 but like I said a bit heavier!

We are not paying for anyone either!! My brother got married in Walt Disney World in 2009 and did not pay for anybody to go down rooms or airfare and I did buy my own dress, shoes and paid to have my hair/makeup done.

I have changed it up a little bit from what they did. We are paying for the guys outfits thus being that I want them all to match and they are NOT wearing tuxes. I am getting the girls dresses custom made so I am buying the fabric and they are paying for the actual dress to be made. I am paying for their hair/makeup to be done in the room with me the day of the wedding. I am taking the girls on a tour of the rain forest, and we are going to be getting them some pretty awesome gifts!!

I honestly have no idea where she purchased the ring shell from but there are a lot of places that sell them I just purchased it extremely inexpensive that's why I got it through her. Just type in ring bearer conch shell in your google browser and I bet a ton will come up!!

Well I haven't managed to do much in the past few (December, January, February) months with Christmas and then moving but today I am officially back to wedding planning, and I could not be more happy and refreshed to finish!! Today we bought FI's ring!! One more thing to cross off the list!!

He chose a simple titanium thick band design! Guys are so simple & easy!!

I am using ribbon... no loops!! I bought coral and white (my wedding colors) ribbon from Michael's it will be easy for people to spot their bags at the airport that way and another plus everyone who is going to the wedding will know who else is going to the wedding by seeing that!! Maybe people will meet in the airport!!

I have officially decided on having a cocktail reception for our wedding! I have gone back and forth with this for months on end and have finally figured it out! We are going to be having a traditional sit down "welcome dinner" this being said I didn't want two sit down dinners in a row!

Now that I have made my decision I would love to talk to others who are also going this route (cocktail reception) Toss ideas back and forth, decoration ideas...  etc!

LOVE LOVE the passport covers!!! Thanks for the post!! I love how they are $2.99 also!! A little extra something to send to my bridesmaids for under $20.00 for all!!! <3

@ stella331

I have been checking on their website daily!!! I really want to snag these suckers also!!! When I see them I will def. post on here for you!!! You can order them online in bulk!!!

So sorry it took me forever to write back to everyone on here! I actually found a girl on this website who designed beautiful invites for herself and I e-mailed her.. I guess it was pretty bold but she agreed to make them for me! Our wedding isn't until 2013 so I actually just e-mailed her the other day to get the ball rolling! If anybody wants her information. PM with your e-mail address and I will let her know you are interested and give her your contact information!

I'm 03062.... and looking at 3 dozen of the Jumbo Jamaica Pens... $19.50 before shipping!!!

I hope this happens this time!!! Crossing my fingers!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is anybody doing a wedding reception casual like?!? With couches and appitizers? Is that allowed here?

I found them on a blog and I am actually getting them custom made

Sorry girls!! I have been MIA for a bit!! So much to do we are in the process of moving!!! Anyway I got my bouquet and I will take and post pictures ASAP All that I can say is WOW!!!!
