Just went on for the modern bride.com and on their website it says they are not taking anymore orders for October. I have seen so many good comments about them so now I don't know where to get it? any suggestions? I am having my wedding on the water with some nautical aspects. Anyone have one they would like to sell???

Perhaps you can make a DIY project - get some hat boxes and cover them w/ fabric in nautical themes - anchors or the signal flags.

Try theartsybride on etsy.com, that is where I got mine. There are a couple of pics in my album, I thought it turned out really great and she was sooo nice and easy to deal with. The price wasn't horrible either.

Re: card box dilemma...........
I would get a regular cardbox and decorate the table it's on with nautical items such as:
thank you girls... I love the idea of doing it as a diy and then it seems overwhelming but maybe I can do it.
i will also check out the artsybride.com thx.
and wedding date twin where do you get a regular card box.... I am ordering shells from USshell.com so I could order some extra for this table.
I will try michaels or something for a hat box

Michaels/Ac Moore type stores usually have plain brown paper hat boxes - you could even buy solid colored ones - perhaps a blue for the water or beige like sand and stack those w/ shells.anchors

Here are some simple boxes that you can use. Just decorate the table to make it look fancy.
you can still try to contact for the modern bride, they'll take rush orders but you have to be a little more. I'm not sure what they charge

Re: card box dilemma...........
Its very pretty Amy and I like how she had different patterns on each ribbon. Only thing I'm wondering if I would have too many blues going on. I did leave a msg earlier on the vmail for the modern bride. I would like something nautical/ or with shells. I want to hear what they say if they could squeeze in one more order.
If they can't thank you for the offer I may fm you very soon. Yes, we are booking Italy ourselves so I will fm you about that. Thanks Amy.
I will also check out etsy.com and thanks girls for the pics of the other boxes I could decorate. The one that looks like a white mailbox is kinda cool.
