Hey ladies, I'm confused so I hope you can all help me.

 

First off I've never been to any destination wedding and I'm planning on getting married in Hawaii. I've always thought the traditional wedding invites and save the dates were beautiful (it's all I've ever known of!) But ever since I came onto this site and I saw all of your cute creative invites (passports and plane tickets) I'm totally wanting to do them!! I don't think they're as traditional "elegant" looking but I think they are so cute and fit with the destination theme!! It's fun and a great way to tie in all the elements that are helpful with a destination wedding such as activities to do, weather, where to stay, etc.

 

What do you think?? Tradition invites (and STDs) or a fun (and helpful informational) passports and plane tickets invites?? TIA!!

I love the boarding pass and passport invites! They are so much fun! There are ladies who went the DIY route and had the most polished invitations. If you're not a DIY person, there are some great invitation vendors who specialize in DW invites. I made DIY boarding passes for the STDs. Everyone really liked them but they weren't as polish as I had hoped. For invites, I just ordered traditional ones from weddingpaperdivas. It would be a disaster if I attempted to make passport invites and I wanted to keep costs low.

 

You should totally do the passport invites! They look SO cool! :)

It is a "At Home Reception". We have 2 guests list; one list is invited to the wedding & AHR, the other guest list is for those we are only inviting to the AHR. wink.gif

I have a couple places you can look at all kinds of boarding pass STDs; some are more formal, some are not.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
