My Caribbean Wedding... and bringing the theme back to North Yorkshire!

Birdie85

Argh my brain is not working right now! I can't figure out how to word the party invites... any ideas?!

I was going to put something like, 'To celebrate their wedding on the 18th February in the Dominican Republic Mr & Mrs Birdie are holding a Carribbean theme party at the rugby club on the 12th March'... but obviously nicer sounding! I also don't know if I should include the wedding date in case it causes any confusion and people turn up in February! It really shouldn't be difficult but I've got a total brain freeze and nothing sounds right!

Birdie85

It's high 20s and sunny this week according to the BBC!

That's a good way of putting it Bubbles, thank you! I've had a bit of mushy head today and just couldn't pluck out the correct words to use, knowing me whatever's making me mushy headed will kick in for the weekend to put a dampener on my Hen party! By the way, how are your plans coming along?

Birdie,

I looked at ways to word the party invites for my wedding too - this is the link to the post where I put some ideas that I found on the net for wording fro mine.

my plans are stalled now, all i can do is save, save and maybe window shop but mostly save lol

Birdie I thought of you the other day! Bought some super cheap "tropical" cookie cutters and theres a brill palm tree! are you doing anything like this for your party or is all of the catering bing done by someone else?! I can try and post a pic/email you if your interested?!

Birdie85

Thanks for the ideas SexyMouse! What have you gone for?

Bubbles, I can't drink Red Bull, blech! :eek: :rotfl:

I've had a little play with my Barbie make-up for my Hen party tonight, currently sat with a really dark fake tanned face (it washes off! I hope!) and super bright pink and aqua eye make up! I look ridiculous but I'm loving it!

Really looking forward to the weekend, we're having a spa day and my Mum is treating me to a massage and a pedicure then we're having a drinks reception at the hotel then dinner (I don't know where) then off to a really cool looking club that has loads of differently themed rooms! Excited!

Oooh and I've finally got the shave gel for my OOT town bags! Quite a sad thing to get worked up about but it has been driving me crazy trying to find small enough tubes/cans for the right price. I was in Sainsbury's after work and found 100ml tubes of Gillette shave gel reduced to £1 each so I grabbed a handful! I'm pleased that I'm back on track these darn bags but I still have to order the pink and blue gift bags, I just have to figure out which size I need.

Cookie cutters sound cool Tink! Where'd you get them? I think my friend is doing the catering, or at least part of it but there's nothing stopping me (or MIL... ) making some cookies for it!

I think we'll probably go for this one:

A perfect shell is a gift from the sea
as beautiful and unique as our love is meant to be
Mouse and Moon will be married on Friday April 8, 2011 in Negril, Jamaica

Please join us for afternoon tea when we return to celebrate our marriage
Friday April 22, 2011

Birdie85

Ooooh there's a Wilkos near my Mum, I'll have to get her to look out for them!

You have to put photos on Flickr or such like to get them to show on here

That's a nice little poem SM, very sweet! I wonder what OH will think of a little rhyme???
