Starting tomorrow and going through the weekend - Jackie, my marketing manager, is headed to gorgeous Jamaica and will be staying at the Hotel Riu Montego Bay. She is flying out today to attend the Jamaica Bridal Expo Experience Press Trip.

Be sure to follow along on all my social media channels {links are below} as Jackie will be posting what I am certain will be some pretty amazing scenery and wedding goodness from Jamaica. Her itinerary is like a dream - just like a destination wedding or honeymoon to Jamaica would be. If anyone has any questions about Jamaica that they would like Jackie to answer while she is there, please be sure to leave a comment.

Are you signed up with any of the daily deal sites out there? There's a few that are my favorites, mostly because they often carry fun supplies and kits that can be used for weddings and parties. But, there's also fun jewelry nearly every day with many of them. Recently Pick Your Plum {my absolute favorite & the prices are AMAZING} has changed their site and the deals are no longer around for just one day. They've extended the sales to last 72 hours or if they sell out {which they often do}, the sale will end sooner. Today, I've rounded up a select few of my favorites deals that are perfect for your upcoming events {or Halloween}. 

Jane.com : eco-friendly wooden utensil place setting kits for 12 including small paper bags, paper straws, bakers twine and wooden utensils

Pick Your Plum : 12 pack of Daisy cut mason jar lids

Groop Dealz : pack of 250 White Paper Lace Doilies bundled sweetly with ribbon

A few more Daily Deal Sites include: One Kings Lane, Zulily, Joss & Main, The Plaid Barn. What is your favorite Daily Deal Site?
