Hey Ladies!

 

I'm so excited! woot.gif As weird as this sounds, one of the things I have been most excited for are sending out our STDs. Since we are planning on a tropical setting, I decided I wanted to do my STDs as a Message in a Bottle! It was actually pretty affordable too. For 50 bottles (including the cork) and all the supplies (sand, shells, umbrella, funnel) it was just over $50! Not too bad! You can even slap a mailing stamp right on the bottle and stick them in the mail! 

 

 

Once I get them, I just print out my STD, put everything together, and BAM, memorable STDs! This is about what they will look like when I am done!

Oh....I ordered my bottles in plastic instead of glass to save on shipping, but now I am worried that it might look tacky! It seems like most people have done glass! 

 

Does anyone have any cute (fairly short and simple) wording ideas? I have searched for some but can't seem to find too many! I would like it to at least include the place, date, time, and website. Are there other things I should include? Thanks girls!

The shipping is much cheaper with the plastic bottles than with glass. With glass you HAVE to put them in boxes (and of course the bottles weigh more) so some girls have said that it cost up to $5/bottle! YIKES. 

 

With the plastic ones, you can just stick a mailing label and stamp right on the bottle and send it out! I sounds like it will be between $1.50-$2.50 per bottle depending on how much sand you put in the bottle.

 

Thanks ladies! Just FYI, I did not make the ones in the pictures. These are just where I am drawing my inspiration from. I think I'm going to try and find some little plastic Palm Trees to stick inside too! Any wording info would be helpful too! cheesy.gif

I did glass bottles for my MIB and the total cost for shipping with bubble wrap, bottle and shipping box was $2.75. Not bad!! At least i didn't think it was. It was all worth it!

 

@Krsmith- Check out bottlemeamessage.com I ordered my supplies from them. They have many invitation wording ideas. I'm sure you'll find one that'll suit your taste.

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      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!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      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!
