OK after a couple weeks of hard work and a lot of help from my amazing mom and bridesmaids we have finally finished our OOT bags. Thank you to everyone who has posted ideas, photos and suggestions! I could not have done this without you! OK so here is the breakdown.

 

I hope you all like them! And if you have any questions Please feel free to ask!

 

Bags: I was able to get these for FREE from my TA because the resort was giving them as promotional items. I was a little nervous when she was telling me about these bags but they turned out to be really nice. They do have the resort logo on the other side but it was not a big deal to me...especially since I am saving a ton of money! I also designed a patch that my mom and I ironed onto the bags the iron on paper totaled around $15.00 and then we bought a t-shirt material that was $10.00

Activity Books - I made them on my computer and I had these printed and bound at OfficeMax and would NOT recommend it. They did not give us a price quote and with the bindings they ended being $12 each! We definitely learned our lesson with that one. Looking back it would have been just as nice to print and bind them at home.

Kelly -- yes they do add up! I would definitely recommend waiting until the end of the season or after x-mas for the sales. I accumulated everything over time as well so it didn't seem like it was that much but after adding it all up it was around $850 total for everything!

    • 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!
