ROYAL PLAYA DEL CARMEN BRIDES: were kids allowed for the day? ...and other questions

[astreit]

Are any of you ladies taking your own aisle runner? My bridesmaids are wearing pink, so I'm not crazy about the red one at all. I had just accepted that I would go without, but then found I Do Originals and fell in love with one! I was super excited and ordered a monogrammed one yesterday, only to find out that it has a 3 month production period, giving it a ship date of May 3. I wanted it early enough to ship it to Mexico rather than having to carry it, so now I'm not sure what to do. I could get a plain white or ivory one in a week. I just am having hard time deciding whether it is worth the hassle to carry it with me, just get a plain one, or even just go without.

I think you can stuff it in your suitcase, can you?

I plan on bringing ordering one too, but I dont know how long it should be. I was thinking of packing it too and just having it steam pressed if necessary when I get there.

Well I don't know. It says it is a little over 3 feet wide, and comes rolled up. I'd be afraid to take it off the role and fold it for fear of wrinkles, Do you think there is anything in the center of the roll? Or do you think I could bend it maybe? I guess I haven't measured, but I don't think my suitcase is over 3 feet tall.

We are talking about "milk you for ever dollar The Royal", but it would awesome if they did! It's funny because I showed the cakes and flowers/centerpieces to my FI and he kepts saying "NONE of these are included in the Luxury package?!" lol. He does have a little point, but oh well...it means more to us ladies in a way that they don't understand

Ooh, hadn't thought of having it pressed if necessary. I heard that the red one they use is 20 meters long, which is like 65 feet.
