That makes sense if your family runs late, but you may want to double check with your planner closer to the time. I don't think they will be set up too early or that the guide will be able to meet you that early. I could be wrong, but would double check. Would be awful to be waiting outside the gate.*
That's cool that Chris was on the screen. Way to go! The Bruins do something like that for the military every game, I think it's great. And as long as the Rangers logo is bigger.
When Paul and I started dating we rooted for opposite teams in everything. He is a Red Sox fan and I am a St. Louis Cardinals fan. For hockey, I am first a Rangers fan and he is a Bruins fan. Since we have been together, I have become a Sox and Bruins fan and he has at least formed an appreciation for the Cardinals and doesn't hate the Rangers as much as he once did.

Football is another story. I am Jets fan and he is a Pats fan. He will never, ever like the Jets and I will never, ever like the Pats. We have a rule when they play each other twice a year that nothing we say during the day is held against us. We also have to root for the other team, when our team is eliminated. I have had to root for the Pats alot and need some payback!*
We are going to incorporate this into our cake. For the topper, we are going to do Jets Bride Mickey Ears and Pats Groom Mickey Ears. A little unconventional and doesn't go at all with pink and silver, but it is totally us, so we are going to to do it.*
I am sitting here looking at my fabulous little tree. Thanks again!!
