Your colors were beautiful!

 

Great review.

 

I have a question regarding freeze dried petals. I have been debating to buy them and bring them in Cancun...but wasn't sure how to do it without customs taking my bags away.

 

Can you explain how you did it? You put two different bags in two seperate luggages. They were checked in, right? Not carry on bags?

Lady Di,

 

I doubled the order for the petals (25 cups + 30 free = 55 cups * 2 = 110 cups). I spoke with someone from Flyboy because I bought the petals a week before we left for MX and wanted to make sure I still had time. She said she hadn't heard anything negative about customs but if it made me feel better she could split the order into two bags just in case. We put the bags in 2 suitcases that were both checked. In Mexico, I got the red light so they searched the luggage I was wheeling but the petals were in the suitcases my husband was wheeling. I don't know what would've happened if my luggage had the petals. It seemed like they were pretty low-key especially once I told them we were getting married. They opened my suitcase, started to search and I confirmed the contents were primarily candles and centerpieces and they just smiled and said congratulations and didn't unwrap or undo anything. It's really luck of the draw once you get to Mexico in terms of whether you get the green light or red light (where they search your luggage). In a last second decision once I got the red light I gave my husband one of the baggages I was carrying and told the guys that it belonged to my husband and they didn't say anything. That left 1 piece for them to search.

 

Hope that helps. Good luck!

FOR SALE!

 

I have an extra veil that's identical to the one i wore. I forgot to bring mine down to Mexico so a girlfriend purchased the same one for me and brought it down with her when she came on Thursday. It's never been worn and it's still hanging in my closet. I paid $75 for it but will sell it for $50 plus shipping.

 

PM me if you're interested.
