I got my date confirmed a week ago - march 12, 2013! We just gave a deposit to guarantee our group rate for next year as well...I can't wait but there's so much to do!
I would call them just to see what they usually do! they'll probably let you know what their protocol is for that...maybe you dont even have to call in advance adn let them know you're coming
Hahaha Im getting a good laugh from reading this thread! I agree, it's not a show, but man is it fun to dream! I got a little carried away with my wedding party dinner but it was soooo fun! (Just lots of wine, champagne, apps, and a full dinner! =)
Or can you securely attach the rings to a seashell or starfish with ribbon, and use that to decorate your basket? Have the starfish tied to the basket handle, and then someone can untie the starfish from the handle and she"ll be able to hold them.
