JQ'S DIY SAND CEREMONY SET


Recommended Posts

2012-06-11 21.01.57.jpg

We are exactly 20 days until our departure to Mexico!woot.gif

I am in the final stages of planning and gathering stuff for our Big Day!  We decided that we want to do a sand ceremony.  Unfortunately, I waited until the last minute (kind of forgot...) to purchase one.  And when I went online to search.....I was quickly astounded by the prices for glass jars (even if they were personalized...)

 

So.....

 

I decided to DIM (Do It Myself)!!!

I stalk my local GoodWill on a regualr basis so I know that I would be able to find glasses at a cheap price...

$1.00 for Big Glass (GoodWill - I was so happy to find a glass with a cork!!)

$1.00 (Goodwill 2 smaller glasses - I wanted them to be different for an authentic look :))

Shells - Dollar Tree - $1.00

Starfish - @$1.33 (Pack of 6 cost @ $8.00 Big Lots...Starfish stink!!!sick.gif)

Raffia - $1.00 (Bag at Walmart)

 

Total = $5.33 for my set!!!

I will get turquoise & yellow sand for the ceremony.

 

I hope you like!

Thanks JennyBenz!!!  My fiance loves it too.  I had recently had a less than pleasant experience with spray paint in our back yard so he was pleased he did not have to clean up!

    • 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!
