Recommended Posts

good evening, fellow BDW.com brides..today's planning post is ALL ABOUT BARGAINS!

 

ok, so i'm ALL ABOUT A GOOD BARGAIN!  ANYTHING $1.00 or less is my kinda bargain.  we ALL know how expensive DW can be..with the travel and all, it can get to be expensive..not nearly as expense as an AHW but still expensive...so, i'm ALWAYS looking for a deal...

 

so today's deal..i'm almost scared to even type it...for fear that ALL of you will go into SHOCK..ok, so here it goes.

 

i found luggage tags..for 40 cents/ea at Michaels..yes, ladies..40 CENTS..that's right folks..way under a dollar..needless to say, i'll be going to ALL of the Michaels in my area searching and collecting luggage tags..take a peak below.  but beware!  you will be SHOCKED!

now that the shock has warn off...i'd like to show you some great $1 deals also found at michaels today...these are what i like to call my Bob Loot... my honey is in AWE and LOVE with ALL THINGS BOB MARLEY...so, to find these items for $1 and the bob marley book at the 1/2 price book store (clearance section) for $2.00 was a GREAT FIND!  i bought three of EVERYTHING..one for my honey, one for my son and one for my dad...a part of me feels like i just might have to include some of these items (if not all) in the survival kits because what's jamaica without Bob?  uhm, the Bahamas?!?  lol! 

 

HERE'S A PEAK AT THE BOB LOOT!

I saw all the Bob stuff at Michaels the other day!!!!! I thought of all the Jamaica brides that it would be perfect for!!!! Will the Bob Marley stuff be a surprise for your future hubby?!

 

I LOVE the luggage tags! What a great find, Did they come in a pack together or sold individually?!

good afternoon, fellow BDW.com brides..its that time again..

 

for today's planning post, i'm going to talk about postcards.

 

so, i want to have postcards available for my guests upon arrival but i also want to put a unique postcard with it welcoming our guests to jamaica.  i've decided i'll purchase authentic jamaican postcards and maybe even some stamps upon landing..i'm pretty sure i can score postcards at the airport.  i'm thinking i'll give each guests at least three post cards along with my personal DIY postcard with a handwritten message for each guest or couple.  here's a peak at the personal card.

postcard back.JPG

 

the back includes our logo and even lines for the guest's name and address..i'll likely put the hotel's address there so it looks 'authentic'...  msnwink.gif

 

 

alright, so today, you guys get a bonus post..because i'm dying to show you my latest DIY project..i like to call this..something is brewing in Jamaica..and what's brewing, you might ask??  well, LOVE, of course AND coffee...take a peak.  please keep in mind, this is a DRAFT..i have to perfect the label and getting it to affix to the bag..but i wanted to share.

each bag will contain enough coffee for each guest to enjoy one pot of blue mountain coffee (found at marshalls for $6.99/bag).

 

coffee bag back 2.JPG

 

i used the martha stewart stamp for the back (gotta love martha - all of her scrapbooking stuff is 25% off with an online coupon at Michaels).

 

coffee bag again 2.JPG

 

well, that marks the end of today's post.  i hope you all like the coffee favors as much as i do...  cheesy.gif

 

until next time, happy planning!!

    • 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!
