Thank you! Our theme is based on "Legend of Zelda", but there also some "Super Mario" nods (of which DF doesn't know). I'm also planning a huge gift for him with most of his guests, it's fun, but I'm also happy when his birthday has come, we had some hiccups during the planning process and yesterday our car broke. But I'm sure it will be worth it in the end.

OMG that sounds like so much fun you will have to share pictures of the final product!!! and boo on your car breaking I swear that kind of stuff waits to break down at the worst time !

So CrunchuSushiDay was so amazing to work with! I had contacted two other venders to make prince clay pendants and none wanted to try but she was willing to and I am so glad she did her work is amazing they are extremely light weight and will work perfectly on my girls flowers and guys boutonnieres. The only complaint was shipping it did take a while she quoted about 10-14 days and it took longer but no big deal so if you are thinking of doing something like this I would really recommend getting them early and she will make just about anything!

Vender Rating: all ratings are out of 5 for a total of 25

Turnaround time: 3

Professionalism: 5

Creativity: 5!! (willing to make something she has never done before)

Product: 5 -extremely light weight

Helpfulness: 5

Total 23/25

I love your newsletter. Ugh, now I'll have to write one. It's really nice of you to offer to find your guests' airfares.

Happy Planning!

6 month Newsletter! So sorry it’s been a while since I have posted a craft and with my six month mark coming up I am starting to crack down even though I planned ahead some still things have to wait last minute soaps, bath salts can’t do those until three months out! Oh well at least some things are done the one thorn in my side however is my brooch bouquet I know it will look beautiful but getting there is quite an ordeal! So back on track I sent out my wedding invitations extremely early! Over a year out because I wanted most of my guest to be able to book sooner rather than later and get the best room and rates! However I had so much more information I wanted to put in there but I didn’t want to overwhelm people I did literally send them a book invite lol (overboard maybe but cute so that’s most important!) Well I know other brides have done newsletters and I plan on doing a “personal navigator” to put in their welcome bags but I wanted something to break up the crunch of time from invitations in march until the wedding in may so newsletter seemed the best idea I made this in word and saved it as a PDF so I can email it to everyone! Cut down on postage and this way they can’t lose it and if necessary I can re-email it so win win. The contents of my newsletter include: what to except, hotel information, flight information, details on the ship, a link to my wedding website, transportation and a section of how guest can be involved in my wedding ( I will do separate post on that!) so hopefully this will get everyone excited for the trip and keep them well informed. I am including pictures of the newsletter before and if anyone wants a blank word document to use I can definitely email one! As always let me know what you think! Happy Planning! Melissa

Your newsletter is AMAZING!!! You can tell all the time and effort you put in!!! Did you send them yet?? (Because I think you mean "what to expect" and not "except", which spellcheck won't catch!

Thank you it took so long to make I had to make the template from scratch in word but I am really happy with the results!
and thank you for catching that sometimes when you read something a million times you miss the little things I will be sending this out on the 23 (exact 6 month mark) so I still have time to change that! Thanks again

 

[Aschenputtel]

Wow, this newsletter is amazing! I especially love the tips and tricks section on each side!
Maybe I found another typo: isn't it aquaduck instead of auqaduck on the last page?
