    Hehe, I honestly don't think anyone else would figure that it's 'wrong', it's just me, and possibly my Mum! If we were having a spot the anomaly there'd have to be something more obvious... like a polar bear!

    I'm trying to figure out how to sneak a Barbie into the decorations! OH would kill me, but it'd be worth it!

    Oh wow! I cant believe thats a real cake!! I think my choice has more chance of getting past your OH :cool:
  • Hey :)

    I was searching ebay for decorations and came across this Tiki Hut ,,thought it would be ideal for your carribbean theme :D ... its a little bit expensive.. perhaps you could be creative and make your own?

    Hehe, thanks for that! I was thinking along the same lines, I might try to Tiki-up the bar to make it look a little more fitting!

    Had a little look around this morning and came across this - cute! But also terribly tacky!

    OMG that life size cake is awful, but also fab - the work that must have gone into it! Love the Tiki hut thing for the buffet?

    It isn't awful Tete, it's beyootiful! I love Barbie, how can you not have figured that out by now! If it was up to be we'd have a Bride Barbie on top of the cake!

    I like the grass skirt things you can get for tables but I had a closer look and they looked quite cheap so if I can find some nice looking ones I'll get them. The roof of the tiki hut might be an issue, it just seems like it will block the light so you won't be able to see what's on the table!

    Hmm, and once you start trying to light it from under the roof I guess it gets a bit complicated and expensive!!
