Thank you Dvhtu

So I wasn't too pleased with my flip flops and felt they were a bit dull so I blingged them up

 

I bought some crayons and the Dollar store and some small plastic bags....this is my creation

 

 

I assembled our Survival Kit, which has

• First Aid kit 
• Lip Balm
• Mini Sunblock
• Mini Shampoo
• Nail File
• Mini Conditioner
• Purell

 

 

Given that we have six children combined, we are going to be playing a Trivia Game (similar to the shoe game) with them during the reception wherein the MC will ask them various questions (Ie which parent is most likely to put a red shirt in the laundry of whites) etc.  so I've created these signs

 

 

And finally (for now) made the labels for our Travel Mugs

Very cool! Can I ask what you used on your flip flops to jazz them up? The writing in particular...

I actually just added the beads...I ordered them personalized from PartyFlops.com

The beads add a nice touch to the flip flops.

Tada Luggage Tags for all our guests

 

 

I ordered the plastic from ebay and paid $7.38/25...the coils from Oriental Trading for $3.79/12..I printed the tag myself

 

I also made a room key/Tip Holder but am waiting for the laynards to arrive (ordered them from ebay)

 

During the cocktail hour, while the guests are waiting for us to return from taking pictures, I am leaving a Trivia Card Game at each table for them to work together to answer the questions.  The table the has all the answers correct, wins a prize (ie box of chocolates to share or I'll find something in Cuba to pick up for everyone, maybe key chains)...Prepared the Trivia Game in the form of a boarding pass
