Hello Ladies,

 

I am getting married on the beach...I have the chairs & rose petals thing going. However, I would LOVE to have starfish on the two front chairs of the aisle and 2 back chairs of the aisle.

 

How can I do this so that the starfish will actually stay on the ribbon and hang on the chair? Also, is there a way to make it even fancier than that?

 

I really want to do this myself...I am not as good as you girls...but I want to do small touches!

 

Please help!

I'm not sure if this is what you had in mind, but I'm showing you what I did for mine. I simply used a glue gun to glue a pin to the back of the starfish. For the large ones that I had a bit of a void in the middle of the back, I put a piece of felt between the starfish and the pins

The picture below is actually of my boutonniers, but it shows the types of pins that I used for the chair starfish

You could line the aisle with palm fronds and starfish if you want. The resort didn't' get my complete vision, but it was close.

They only put the palms at the end of the aisle. Oops!

 

I think as long as you use the larger starfish you'll be fine.

 

Another idea I like are streamer sticks:

I did these for my AHR but couldn't find pictures.

 

My florist used different shades of blue ribbon and but them on 28" bamboo sticks. You could easily do this and add starfish!

Yes! Hanging them off the side of the chair is exactly what I had in mind! I am just also struggling with how to get those heavy starfish to stay with all the weight hanging!

 

I am going to try the felt idea and see if that works! I am just concerned about them all falling off!

    • 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!
