we made them! what a palava that was!! we bought the mini bottles from Boots (in the UK) and then bought big bottles of Aloe Vera and had to distill them. it sounds easy. it wasn't!! we had to make funnels from card and push the aloe through with a pencil! took AGES! we done 12 of the 15 and ran out of aloe, so i bought more (a different brand) and it came with a lid that kind of had a squirty funnel. with those i just squirted it directly in the bottle and filled three up in about 20 seconds!! haha! Typical! so my advice, if you're going to do it, is to check the bottles the big Aloe comes in, so you can squeeze them into the little ones easily!!

 

we made the lables at work using the monogram rebecca made for us :)

I had my sand ceremony stuff delivered yesterday, i am SO happy with them! I bought a 200ml bottle and two 100ml bottles from Ebay (Glass Bottles items - Get great deals on Storage Jars, Candleholders items on eBay.co.uk Shops!) and they are EXACTLY what i was looking for! I had a problem with this because most of the sites that sell sand ceremony kits are from the states. they're only about $50 for the kit, but then you have @ $45 delivery costs to the uk, and i just wasn't prepared to pay that much money. these bottles cost me £19 including delivery! Perfect!!

the big one is about 6" tall and the smaller ones about 4.5" tall. our plan is to fill the smaller ones with sand from the beach we're getting married on (about 3/4 full) and then, before the ceremony when people are arriving and taking their seats each guest has to take a pinch of sand from the beach and drop it in the main bottle, along with a wish for our future together.

 

when we do the ceremony the judge will read the wording whilst Andy and I pour our sand from our pots into the main bottle. i hope it's as lovely as i imagine!

 

also our playing cards got delivered yesterday and they are fab! love them!

    • 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!
