I got the free templates from here:

I got some inspiration from here:

 

http://www.projectwedding.com/forums/sunnydbride-s-diy-passport-invitations?page=2

 

This had information:

 

https://weddingpassports.com/diy/

 

We were thinking about getting 46 invitations, boarding passes, and envelopes from here:

 

https://weddingpassports.com/passport-gallery/

 

It was almost $400 for 46 passports (!) Admittedly, 12 pages, but with shipping it probably would have been over $400.

 

So I decided to make my own.

 

I ordered stamps from here:

 

https://store.usps.com/store/browse/productDetailSingleSku.jsp?productId=S_681004

 

60 because they come in packs of 20.

 

I also ordered 60 Coastal Birds Postcard stamps. I can't link it because their site is down right now.

 

The stamps haven't arrived yet.

 

I went to FedEx Kinko's and I got proofs made, twice.

 

The first proofs, I bought a special stapler that would fit the passport invitation (from Staples). At the same time, I bought multi-colored pastel envelopes.

 

The second proofs didn't fit the stapler (which means more cutting).

 

I bought a special corner rounder.

 

My friend helped me round a lot of the corners.

 

All in all they are not perfect but I think they are fine. I don't want to pay any more to re-print them.

 

I bought a calligraphy book, pens and calligraphy paper. I figured if I do the calligraphy myself it will save money but still not look too bad. 

 

Well that's it!


Oh yes. The boarding passes are RSVPs and I will put the postcard stamps on those, except for the international guests.

 

I plan to buy a rubber stamp to stamp the back of the invitations... not sure how long that will take... may have to get one custom made here.

    • 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!
