thank you CSHO.  I've been to Varadero, Cayo Santa Maria and Holguin and for the beach Varadero is my favoriate.  Holguin was really nice and we loved Blau Costa Verde Resort..the entertainment was just amazing!  However, the beaches were a bit too weedy and water muddy.  In Cayo Santa Maria, there were many old men in banana hammocks with young local prostitutes on the beach so needless to say we won't be going back there, ever!  Now that was back in 2009 so just speak to people who have been there recently before considering there.  Varadero had the nicest beach so that is why we chose it.  Good luck and have fun planning! :-)

Thanks Lydia! I have been to Holguin and we loved it and I've been to Varadero as well a number of times which I also loved. I love that the airport is so close... the reviews I've read on Melia LAs Dunas Cayo Santa Maria have been amazing but its hte long drive that keeps me from it the most. I am pretty much torn btw the Iberostar Laguna Azul in Varadero or Melia LAs Dunas. I guess it will mostly just come down to the price for our guests!

These are costly to ship (about $10 each within Canada) so I personally handed them out to my family and friends during the holidays.

For the invitations, given that we have such a large party going, I made 30 "Messages in a Bottle" for those people who had already put down a deposit to travel and sent cards to the others. The postage for the Bottles are $10 each so I had them all prepared before Christmas and handed them out personally during the Holidays.

 

The bottles I purchased from Michael's for $.74

Sand - from our own lakefront (lol)

Shells - ordered from Florida Shells and Gifts https://store02.prostores.com/servlet/floridashellsandgift00/InvoiceAccount?smode=checkout The mixed Nassa was $.99 and I bought 2 (I also bought other shells for decorating the table and had the parcel delivered to friends in Michigan to save on shipping)

Umbrellas - purchased from Micheal's for $5.00 for 100

Labels - ordered return address labels from Vistaprint and paid $8.00 for 50

Ribbon - purchased from the Dollar Store for $2.00

Boxes - ordred from invitationinabottle.com

 

If I had to do it all over again, I would have just ordered the DYI kit from www.invitationinabottle.com for $1.99 per bottle including the boxes...it works out to be cheaper.

 

The actual invitations, I ordered from www.magnetstreet.com for $2.25 each.

We ironed on all our Rhinestone Jewellery on our t-shirts, including 25 "Bridal Entourage" but they came out so good! We also tagged them with a note that reads:
