Cheap Maracas For Reception!

[stella331]

I have been emailing the company for a couple months now because they were sold out of the pink ones for awhile. When I placed my order I was told to email them with the order number and specify I only wanted pink ones. I worked with Jeff and he was great with emailing me pics of what they have available.

So I just had to share this find with everyone.... Just Placed my order!  I am getting the Medium Maracas in assorted colors.  One will be placed on each guests plate at our reception dinner.  We are making tags that say something along the lines of "instead of tapping on your glass, heres a system with Mexican class.  Stand and Shake with all your might, to see the groom kiss this bride tonight!" 

(borrowed saying from Shelbygirl Thanks!)  the saying will be attached with a nice ribbion.  And the Maracas are only 1.65 per pair so who could resist?!  : )

Love this idea!

Thanks!

It is a combo...My save the date postcards that I had made are the font I asked her to send me the digital file and I added the thanks, and the back I made I could email you that if you would like. Let me know!

So I ended up changing the design of my tags! Mainly due to lack of time!  Here is the final product!

Hey ladies! From the sounds of it, I am having the same dilemma as everyone else....I cant decide between medium or large. I am worried about packing them so the smallewre the better but I am worried the 6 inch ones will be too small. The most recent pic posted is of the large ones, correct? Does anyone have a pic of the 6 inch ones they could post? Thanks!

I don't have pics but I was going thru the same dilemma as you for almost a month lol.  I ended up with the mediums and they are perfect.  Not to small and not to large.  Go with the mediums you won't be disappointed in my opinion.  Also they will take up less room when packing

Ened up with the large that is what is pictured.  To be honest it looked like they were all different sizes no two were exactly the same, they still looked awersome and I will post pictures of them on my tables asap!
