A few random photos for a rainy Monday...

This bride liked my blog post of the seahorse tote bags and decided instead of filling up their welcome bags, they would be rolled up and had the guests place settings attached to them. Know what was really cool about these tote bags? She had one for each guest from Cafe Press that reflected their personality or a funny story from their past together. Guests had an awesome time untying their totes and showing each other what they had.


This guy was hanging out by a tree next to the reception - by the end of the reception, he had eaten all the pink flowers!


Guests stamped out a congratulations to the bride & groom - the bride was greeted with this as she made her way down the stairs to the beach...


I love Caribbean Rum Balls for welcome bags...


And all these other fun goodies...but see that bag of chips? Do not send those in advance - we can get them so much cheaper for you here! I noticed the bride spent close to $40 in express shipping just for a small box of chips! Yikes!


This is why I say not to send sunscreen in advance - she got very lucky that it didn't explode more than it did (you will not have a happy wedding planner on your hands if I'm washing sunscreen off all your goodies!).


Our new chalkboard sign to "warn" guests that there is rum in the punch...you have no idea how many toddlers I see parents almost give their first rum drink to!

I'm not Dilly Dally!

I've been screaming this in my head all day - I've been meaning to get a photo of the prize up on the blog all week but we are knee deep in wedding season right now. It has been so busy. There is a voice in the back of my head that keeps reminding me to do this but I just haven't found time...whenever my daughter (who turns 3 in August yet I'm not comfortable calling her a three year old yet!) is taking her sweet time doing something, we always tell her not to dilly dally - she gets so frustrated when she hears this and says, "I'm NOT Dilly Dally! I'm MARLEY!" Cracks us up everytime. So yes, while that voice in my head keeps reminding me to hurry up and get this posted, there is another voice in my head screaming back, "I'm not Dilly Dally!"

That was a lot to explain why this wasn't up sooner, huh? =)

Bill, I hope you and your fiance enjoy a box of locally made Caribbean Rum Balls. These make great additions to welcome bags or favors to be set at everyone's seat. I've also thrown in a USVI bumper sticker and will include some local brochures on St. Thomas and St. John.



And for my runner up Amber, that is a surprise her. Amber is expecting a very special baby this summer, Megan Grace, and there is a little something in the package for you and your mommy. And sorry Amber, it is not two tickets to come back down to St. Thomas. Business is good, but not that good!
