We are getting married on May 4th and getting the license on 3/26 (we have to wait 72 hours, and then it expires on 4/26) so we will go to Town Hall on 4/19.

Since there's nothing legally binding, as far as the resort is concerned, they don't care either way.

We're actually getting married after our destination wedding.  We return to the States on Sunday 02/26 and handling the legalites on 02/28. We both return to work on 02/29.

As far as grey/silver goes, it's a neutral and can be thrown into any color palette. The fuchsia and coral colors are both very warm and grey typically a cool color so it will add some nice balance

I can't find any images online and haven't actually seen this done before. But I already bought the decor and don't want to return/exchange or buy more if not necessary. My brain is currently on overload. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Thanks.

I completely agree with Ali, and think the inspiration board she posted is beautiful.  I actually had the same issue when selecting my MOH dress which resulted in changing my color scheme from sangria and chartreuse to a medley of purples with a hint/accent of chartreuse.  I think it's for the better and it has actually made my planning and coordination of decor much easier.

I agree, I think Fuschia, grey and coral will look great together! I am doing yellow, coral and grey!

What is eveyone doing for a guestbook?! I really like the "message in a bottle" but don't want to have to bring glass bottles with me.. And I am way to picky to rent some without knowing what they look like. I cant seem to get a straight answer from Zuinga on the cost of size shape of bottles they have available.

We're doing individual guest advice cards (with our name and wedding date personalized), placed in front of each guests plate. Then have a dropbox near the cake table. Later on I plan to put them all in a guest book...this eliminates having to lug a guest book on the plane lol!

I'm starting to think that I have fat fingers or my nails are too lnog and getting in the way. I need to pay more attention when posting from my phone...I'm still a May bride. 

 

Correction to dates - We return to the States on Sunday 05/26 and handling the legalites on 05/28. We both return to work on 05/29

I just got my wedding guest book from shutterfly.com shipped a week ago.

 

I made a photo book (hard cover) with all of our engagement photos and it turned out SO nice!  There are pages where guests can sign (cute things like ... where do you see the couple in five years?, mad-libs to fill in ... etc.).  I highly recommend it!e

I did that too!  The quality is really nice and it was a nice way to get our engagement photos into a book form too.
