I saw these AMAZING table runners on Etsy but they were $20 a piece - yeah false! I decided I was going to finally learn how to sew and take a wack at making my own. So that's what I did - I purchased all of the material at Joann's with coupons and made my own runners! I love how they turned out. I am going to alternate the turquoise and coral chevron on each table.

This is what I'm thinking for table settings. What do you all think?

DIY Post Card Guest Book:

I put these together last night. I put one post card in each glassine envelope I bought on Amazon and put an avery label I printed on it. I really like how they turned out, I'm going to have one per place setting so hopefully they will take the time to fill them out, or have the option of sending them back to us after the wedding ( I would prefer before we leave Jamaica though so they actually do it!).

I love this! I think it looks so awesome! So creative!

DIY Programs:

 

I had a completely different, more traditional program nearly finished and then had to trash it because it just wasn't "us". We're far from traditional so we went with a more fun/informal program attached to the raffia fan. I'm also going to put a flower at the base of the fan just to add some more detail.

My Cake Topper:

This I absolutely cannot take credit for. Trina's Clay Creations on Etsy did an AMAZING JOB (COMPLETE UNDERSTATEMENT) on our cake topper! It was beyond worth EVERY PENNY! It came out better than I could have ever imagined. Trina was phenomenal and took time to email me every step of the way, and asked for more pictures when needed. We absolutely love it. Check out her Etsy store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/trinasclaycreations .

DIY Bridal Bracelet:

I just started messing around with some beads I had at my house and came up with a really cool bracelet, I think I'm going to attach a starfish brooch in the center and use it for my rehearsal dinner or maybe the wedding!

I love your program! Its so fun! I have been debating whether or not I should do one... I had decided against it until I saw yours though. its super cute... did you make it yourself or did you have someone create it for you? And your cake topper is beautiful! She really did a wonderful job!

Aw thank you for your kind words! I made it myself in Microsoft Publisher and then just printed it at home on some paper I found at Michael's! I think all together it cost me less than $5 to make them!

      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!
