Tropical Love - Thanks for the tip.  I ended up going to Target and getting them pretty cheap.  I just did the labels on them last week.

This is a great list -thanks!!! I have a couple additions:

 

Note: I just got back yesterday from my cousin's DW in Punta Cana and the things that the bulk of the group forgot/ran out of was: Sun Tan Lotion (it was $23 for a 250mL bottle at the store!), Aloe, Benedryl/Afterbite and decks of cards (people paid $5-6 for a deck!).

 

The mugs are a great idea - and I would suggest adding in a trial size of dish detergent so you can wash them out. We used ours for the first day - got a bit tipsy and forgot to wash them...so they smelled kind of "off" the next day and we didn't use them again. If you want to save money, you could opt for non-disposable plastic cups (without the travel mug lid) - http://www.4imprint.ca/tag/614/Plastic-Cups/p/0.41-1.16 If your concerned that people's drinks won't stay cold - i wouldn't worry about it too much, most people will finish them before and if not, they can always dump out their cup and go get a refill!

 

My hubby-to-be and I had a puzzle book to keep us occupied and it had great brain teasers, trivia questions, etc. We may make up our own little booklet of puzzles. One section of our puzzle book was all coin puzzles and we were thinking it would be fun to give a little baggy of Jamaican coins with some games.

We are also going to get there a couple days early and pick up some post cards to put in the bags.

 

Our problem is we want to do too much! It adds up fast!

 

Happy Planning!
