That is not true! I asked when we were going through customs on the way home. I was told that I could indeed have brought it back home. It "cannot grow nor does it have seeds". He said if I had a problem, all I needed to have done was ask for a supervisor. It is permitted to bring a fresh flower wedding bouquet back into the USA.

Good to know-thank you for the insight!

Everyone has asked for some pics. Here is a link with some pictures from our Vow Renewal at DPA.

oh I can't wait to look at your pictures after work tonight! Unfrotunately my work computer blocks photobucket but I bet they're just beautiful!

Is there a way to make the photos bigger? They are super small and I hit the "fullscreen' button, but they are still super small. Thank you for sharing by the way!!!

i am not able to get any of the dates i was looking for at DRC so now i may become a DPA bride! i was curious what day of the week you guys decided to hold the ceremony and how long most guests stayed? i was hoping to do a fri or sat night wedding so people could come wed/thurs through sunday... but it seems like those are the most popular nights.

 

thanks for any input! happy planning!

Hey Rachel! Welcome to our group!

 

My wedding is on a Friday afternoon (at 3pm, the evening times were not available) and our guests are arriving either the Sunday or Monday and staying for the week. I don't think I looked for any packages that were shorter than that, but I know that FI and I have a ten day package so that we have a few days on our own.

 

You're right that the Friday times book up quickly although I've never really asked about the Saturday ones. If you're a little bit flexible then you still might have a chance to get what you want! I guess it just depends if you're set on specific dates. I would just contact the Wedding Coordinators (WC's) at DPA with the dates you're looking at and see what they come up with! Good luck and ask if you have any other questions!

Hi!

 

Our wedding is on a Friday. We are flying in the Sunday before....we have guests who start arriving Tuesday, with the last one arriving early Friday morning. For the most part everyone is leaving Sunday...there are three families and one couple who extended, but everyone else leaves Sunday.

Let us know if we can help w/ questions!!

Wow, so much going on in this thread...I have been so busy I have been missing out! I'm not sure if they have them...I made my own table numbers out of paper and cardstock.

My wedding was on a Thursday. Most guests arrived on Wednesday and left on Saturday or Sunday.

MInes on a thursday. Not sure why we picked that day. We leave on the sunday prior and everyone is travelling together. Should be fun. Plus we are staying for another nine days after.

Oh sorry....I am talking a/b the silver stands that hold the cardstock.

Jacy is checking on it....so fingers crossed they have them.
