taking a broom on destination wedding

I'm sorry. I'm so clueless... What was the broom for?

Lots of people like to "jump the broom" as a part of the ceremony kinda a ceremonious way of sealing the deal

Oh wow. That's cute. That's strange that they took it from you at the airport. Who knew twigs were such a big deal? Hahhaa.

Cute idea! I'm sorry to hear that they didn't let you take it with you. We recently came back from Mexico, and at the airport they gave single roses to mothers, for Mother's Day, and they made them all throw away once they were boarding the plane. So strange!

I'm so sorry they didn't let you keep it! I hope people remember this for other DWs outside US borders--it's important to doublecheck on the regulations for what you can and cannot transport in and out of the country. As you found, some of the rules can be surprising.

That's strange usually if you contact the airline and make arrangements in advance there are no issues

Thanks so much for the heads up! I deff would have been devastated if this happened to me! Were getting married in the DR 6/25/2010 at the Majestic Colonial. Where did you get married? How was your experience?

My wedding was at the fun royale resort in puerto plata. we had a WONDERFUL time!!! lucy, the coordinator, makes sure that EVERYONE in your party is happy. it's a nice spacious resort with all inclusive food and drinks (liquor) and 3 pools. it was a wonderful experience and everyone was pleased
