UPDATE W/pic:My Card box dilemma... tyia for your advice

UPDATE: What about this?

Okay, so, I am having a major issue. Although everything is tied in nicely with my wedding (tea by the sea) I CANT SEEM TO FIGURE OUT MY CARD BOX!!

I just made a card box cake for a friends friend and i thought it was cool but not something I wanted...

Then fh and I were talking and originally I was making a very large sea urchin. It would be on a table with smaller sea urchins sea glass and shells...

Then we started saying, what if we made a huge snapple cap standing upright and guests could then put the cards into the cap. The fact would be
'Real Fact #717 Mr. and Mrs Fazzolari were married on July 17th 2009'

Now, although it does go with the 'tea' aspect of the wedding it doesnt go with the beach theme much... but it does go with the proposal...

And lastly (i love who ever is still reading...you are a saint) Then we were thinking of making a large tea cup.... with nautical decorations on it that reads 'Life is Good'

What do you think? and why? THANK U

I love the Snapple cap idea! I tell everyone about your proposal I think it's so great!

I would definitely go with that!

When I first started reading adn saw the 'Tea' thing i thought tea cup or tea pot for sure...i love that idea..

I do also love the snapple cap though!

You should do bottles of snapple as your favors! Maybe the snapple company will make you special bottles with personalized labels!!!!

I am sooo confused! The centerpieces are sand castles, and the favors are the teabag rests with personalized tea bags with beach chairs on them... and sugar cubes shaped like star fish...

We thought about the snapple bottles too. We arehoping snapple gets back to us! lol

Same here I was thinking make a large tea cup but....you can still have tea with the snapple...they do make ice tea. Ok it might not be the same tea but, similiar, right?
I love your idea Lauren of having snapple as their favors. You can do labels for them also.

you can always have 2 card boxes if you really wanted! you are sooo talented Im sure you can do one and your mom do the other.
OH wait!!!! I have an idea!!!!
What if you made the snapple bottle into a wish bowl....
You have them write a snapple fact (wish) for the 2 of you and they place it into the snapple bottle!!!!

I doubt they will even get back to me! lol

Here is my worry, Once work starts, I work three jobs... 6 days a week. The only time I have is this summer and June of next summer really (I know it sounds insane but thats prob why I am always a emotional wreck lol)

But, I really wanted to at least have it figured out and start working on it by this month...

I was all set on the sea urchin lolol.... There has to be a way to incorporate everything into eachother... anyone???

I love the snapple idea, but why dont you make a snapple bottle that they can put the cards into?

Or better yet, make tiered boxes but make them snapple boxes (make them tea flavors to fit in with the tea theme) and have the cap on top kinda like a cake topper. Is this making any kind of sense bc I can draw a diagram for you lol.
