We got the red light, but it ended up being no big deal. We just explained it was for our wedding and they were gifts for our guests. They looked at teh stuff and sent us on our way.

I did have a few things in my luggage, but they asked if it was for a wedding and I of course said yes, and they let me go without a problem.

well that is a relief...I read somewhere once (maybe on here I can't remember) that you should try to pack your receipts for all of your stuff or something? has anyone heard that?

Good to know!

BUT UM.....I can't help but notice that new ticker on your siggy Yari!

congrats!

Yari? a baby! That's amazing! It must've been a VERY NICE honeymoon (just kidding).

 

So that's another question...if you ship do you ship it to Nicole or your hotel?

 

Also, did anyone find alternate transportation to get their guests to the dock? We decided on the Dreams PV and we're curious if the hotel has some kind of with-the-room transport to the marina?

 

Hopeful in Arkansas..

we didn't have any trouble getting our stuff to PV. The only thing they questioned was our table stones. On the X ray they show up as this big black blog. Once we dug them out and showed them the stones and said they were for our wedding they didn't have any problem with it.

 

also here's link to the color changing cups thread with the link to the vendor

I shipped to my hotel, but Nicole was willing to take my shipment as well. It really is up to you.

Yari - CONGRATS!! That is such exciting news.

 

We are also going to pack an extra suitcase, just for peice of mind knowing it will get down there.

Oh my goodness! Yari!! Congrats!!!!

 

So exciting that another BDW Las Caletas baby is on the way!
