NEWBIE!! Hawaiian DWB :)

[aleedoc17]

the large totes bags:

14 1/2" x 15 1/2" with 11 1/4" handles.  $11.50 for 12

 

 

small tote bags:

poly nonwoven tote, 6" x 6" with 4 1/2" handles. $6.25 for 12

 

 

they looks like the material bags that you get at the grocery store, make sense? i would probably do the small ones just for price purposes!

Oh! And my colors are ivory, blush (pale pink), champagne & gold. Not really tropical colors for a Hawaii wedding but I love the classic look of these colors. And I'm so girly so you know I HAVE to have pink. I'm not a fan of hot pink though... Anyhow, most of my wedding inspiration comes from Karen Tran (amazing florist) if you were girly and into flowers!! Haha. Are you planning on decorating your arch with flowers? Or just fabric?

 

I think I found another Hawaii bride! She is getting married at Turtle Bay. Lol. Maybe I can bring her over to our thread. I really wish Hawaii brides posted more on here =/

Omg that sounds amazing! Hmm... what about your engagement photos? So it could look like a styled shoot. Lol.

flowers: no idea! I want a cascade, i know it's old school, but i think Hawaiian flowers look amazing like this. but honestly I'm not a flower girl. so I don't want too much money spent on flowers. I wouldn't mind a DIY or fakes? I don't know

 

DJ: Gannon's only allows certain ones. so I have to contact them.

 

Photobooth: Something I was hoping my NJ photographer was going to do (which was originally a plan but now it's not looking good, so back to plan A. (weird to go with B before A -- haha)

 

decorations/centerpieces: I'm trying to figue a way to do sashes for chairs cheap, b/c Gannon's charges $7 a chair! If it's a chair but it is for both ceremony & dinner then we might suck it up! I want an archway for the ceremony. I want twinkle lights at the reception.. favors?

 

what else am i missing?!

 

how about you

 

So I was on the Save on Crafts website and they have chair sashes on there for really cheap! Both organza and satin. Not sure how much the shipping is to your area but it's worth checking it out

TTD & boudoir should be fun!! We didn't do engagement photos either. The destination wedding was so last minute we had to just send the invitations asap. Haha.
