Check out Vanessa as well. It doesn't hurt to get a quote. I seriously requested quotes from at least 12 agents before I settled with her because I felt I owed it to my guests to do as much research a

I just got some amazing shell garlands off Kijiji, Four 6ft strands for $15. Makes me feel like an idiot for paying $70 for shells of the internet haha. 

 

Anyways keep your eye out on Kijiji for wedding stuff if you're looking to bring stuff down.

 

These are kind of cute:

I'll only get 3 treatments in before the wedding. Boooo! I still got a groupon for it last week though for Silky Skin Laser & Esthetics. Has anyone had laser in Edmonton and would recommend a place? 

 I had mine done at Urban Retreat in the west end. You can't have any tanned skin lasered and it does take months to get all your treatments in but the results were good for my wedding. I still don't have to wax my bikini area, however my underarms didn't take as well and within 6 months I was back to shaving.

 I had no problem with my "hangover kits" getting thru Mexican customs. They are mostly looking for illegal drugs and any fruits/plants so you should be ok but check the Jamacia government website for their rules.

I have about 100 extra business cards for tip/ key holders if anyone is going to Jamaica in 2013. They look like this:

Free if you want to pick them up in Edmonton. I live in Riverbend but can have them at my parents in Country Club (by Callingwood) if thats easier. 

 

FYI I got my lanyards and zip badge holders from ebay at gcishopinline. Together they look like this:

So I handmade my bouquet from real touch flowers from Michaels. It came to $45 for all supplies. And then I took it into Chintz & Company in Edmonton to add a few embellishments and WOW Sue is amazing there!! If you're looking to get a fake flower bouquet I would 100% go there! She let us take the space we needed and pull every flower that we thought would look nice, and then recommended what to add where and how to incorporate it. I ended up spending an additional $55, which included 1 flower, foliage, and the ribbon around the hand part and some diamonds on the handle too. I think normally there would be a charge for designing it too but since I had the majority done already (and since shes so generous) she didnt charge me. So she may normally charge, and I'm sure it's worth it, but even if you want to put it together yourself they have an awesome supply of flowers.

 

I almost wish I hadn't gone to Michaels first.

 

Anyways here is my bouquet before:

And here it is after. It looks Much better in real life!

Im looking to get Bubba mugs engraved for the wedding party. Does anyone know of a place that isn't ridiculous for engraving fees? I've look at a few places and there is a $10 surcharge per item unless you bought the item in store, which pisses me off since the mugs arent even worth $10 haha.

      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!
