@@cfinkenbine what is his contact info?

@@MK0386 What is your etsy site?

No, they don't need to be the same, @@puravida2015.

Although my fiances mom is the one that wanted pinned initially, but she changed her mind and got a new dress and the fabric won't really work for that so looks like it will be two wrist!

thanks!

I would love to do a Welcome Dinner, but we have guests arriving Saturday - Wednesday, so that won't really work for us.  On Wednesday night we are going to do Bach parties, but we haven't figured out many of the details for that yet.  I told my sister (moh) I had enough to plan, so she needed to figure that out

I like to do a "rehearsal" dinner type thing if we can get the resort to reserve a section of the restaurant for us, too.   Friday is our wedding so we will have the ceremony and reception.

I'm not going to plan too many excursions, because I know this is their vacation, too.  I'm thinking we will all do things in small groups or as a big group though.

I had originally sent out a brochure with some resort information with our invites. 

 

With about a month to go, I just sent an initial email this week (since all of our guests are confirmed now). In the email I put the week's timelines and what they can expect (tulum excursion, halloween, wedding day info) and I reminded them about travel insurance and taking dukoral. I included dress code for wedding and other basic information.

 

Since I'm the travel agent myself, I will be sending out another email with tickets/travel documents and other necessary travel information approximately two weeks before we leave. 

How much detail did you give them about excursions / activities?

I like the michaels ones

Congrats!!

Congrats!

Did you get it to work? It took me a ton of tries to finally complete it

@@amandab36, I couldn't order with Google chrome but it went through with explorer.

I will check it out! Thanks for the tips

Good idea:).

Crap.... You can't take it back with you?! That would really damper the entire thing

I will have to look around on there! What items were the best deals?

great find!

@@labellavita8308 Share your's when you are done!  

@@Mangosong I'm not typically a gold person either, but I think that would look best, too.

I want to do a sand ceremony for our wedding, but I don't want to use craft sand.  Rather, my plan is to have each of us scoop sand from where we are standing and pour that in to the jar.

I kind of thought it would be cool to have a smaller scoop and ask all of our friends and family who are attending to scoop a little sand from where they are at when we said our vows and say something about how it means a lot to us to have them there, as they have influenced us as individuals and as a couple and are very much a part of the day.

While I really like the sentiment of that, I don't know how practical it is and how we'd do it logistically with 40 guests.

Should I scrap involving the guests, or leave it?  If I leave it...how do we do it smoothly?

@@chelseapaige37 Did you find good deals on Amazon for OOT items?

We didn't put prices on our website, but I did put links of places to look at packages (expedia, orbitz, etc.) so they could get a rough idea that way

@@kcole123 I like the personal gift!  I keep going back and forth on what to get my  fiance!  

I just got an email with the prices for things supplied by the resort.....I am going to need to kick up my DIY because I am not paying that much for things I can do!

@@WinnipegBride Awesome!!

Have you used the site Wanelo?

I've had really good luck finding cute stuff searching on there.
