That is really good news about Rina!! 

 

I love all the packing ideas everyone is throwing out there.  I have two different checklists to go over when I start packing.  I know I will still forget something LOL.

 

I hate how shoes take up so much space but yet we all feel they are so necessary to bring, right?? :)  I plan on bringing white and black wedges (most space takers), wedding heels, wedding flip flops, black heels, sparkly heels and 2 pairs of flips flops....oh and workout shoes.  I am not really a big shoe girl but I feel I need all of these.  I know that is just one suitcase right there ugh!!  I need to cut back already.  :P

Something similar happened with my BM/good friend, she gave me about 5 weeks notice. It's impossible for this not to change the friendship I think. :(

I've gotten "yes" RSVPs and then a "NO"  after the RSVP deadline, but this evening felt like the nail in the coffin and just bought me to tears.

I called her an hour ago to say I hope it doesn't ruin our friendship (more fool me??) but she has to understand I'm upset and can't really get into it now. I really don't want this to ruin our friendship but at the same time i don't know how it can ever be the same again.

I love your tabe set up! Where did you get the vases from? And did you use a real flower inside, or is it a fake flower?

I am going to start pulling out all the OOT bag stuff and seeing what it all looks like.  I've done things in little spurts so I need to figure out everything I really have.  Then I'll see if it all fits in one suitcase which I think it will. 

 

I really need to send out the pre-travel brochures and luggage tags. Geez I'm slacking!!

 

I tested out my centerpieces with the table runners, napkins, sashes and two place settings last night.  Finally looks good.  It was hard for me to envision what it would look like together without actually seeing it.  Now I am happy!!

 

What do you think?  Is it enough?  There will probably be two to a table.

There is a turquoise LED light in the vase that will look good at night time.  It's hard to see it in  the pic.

Vases are from the Dollar Tree!!  The flower inside is a fake orchid from Michaels.  Still looking for the right one but I have those as a back up if needed.

    • 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!
