AUGUST '08 brides!!

[Melissa G]

Maura - I love your programs!! The color and fonts are great.

 

I really want to make programs, but the WC at Sandals said I have to meet with my on-site coordination (1 day before the wedding) to get the layout of our ceremony. I think that is BS!!!! Sandals does hundreds of weddings a year and I am the only one asking this??

[Maura]

thanks melissa! i am betting that they can give you your ceremony info in advance if you push for it....

 

 

today i sent my two BMs that live in the US a package with a 2-disc mix of mexican music to get them excited for mexico and got them each this card (wrote a personal message inside too):

and the inside says:

Be one of my best friends and

walk down the aisle with me

 

 

I thought the cards were too funny to pass up - it is exactly the kind of thing we'd all say to each other.

Maura!!!! That card is a riot!! Where did you find it!

[Maura]

Here's the link to the company that makes them, you can find out on their site where to buy their cards near you! They have so many funny ones.

 

NAUGHTY BETTYâ„¢

 

here's the one i just sent to a friend who got engaged over the weekend:

the website is wrong about what the inside says though, it actually says:

Let the Mr. & Mrs. Mania Begin, Congratulations!

 

and one i bought for a friend whose wedding is coming up in the fall:

this one is for her bachelorette party

inside says: Hello to becoming the Mrs.

 

and for her actual wedding day as a private card to her, i will give them another card with $ in it for a gift, so this one is just for her:

inside says: Congratulations on your shiny

new married life.

Those cards are so hilarious. I am totally doing something like that for my MOH and BM. Thanks for the link Maura!

I love the seashell bouquet. Isn't it heavy though? We bought a bunch of seashells for our AHR centerpieces and they were heavy!

[Maura]
