Invitations
Noteably Noted is creating our custom invitations. I found these invitations and I know I can't blatantly copy them...but I'm using them for "inspiration." Notably Noted is also going to coordinate my menus, escort cards, programs, etc.
Here's how they turned out!! I LOVE THEM!!!!!

Escort cards
We tied these to small white finger starfish that I bought from Koyal Wholesale.
Parasol basket
We placed the guest parasols in this basket just outside the seating area.
Favor tags
I glued these to the bellybands on my invitations, and variations of them onto the palm fan favors, and cookie box favors.
