Realistically I doubt seriously that even a couple of days out of the humidor is going to harm the smoke-ability of your sticks. That said, I've been wrong before. Hopefully someone a little more knowledgeable will jump in here if I'm worng this time.

Enjoy your 'gars!
Spot on, Joe.

No seasoning necessary. No humidifcation needed either.
For one evening or a couple of days, you will be fine.
The only caveat is that if you are in a climate where the RH is above 75% RH or below 40% RH, then I might consider not leaving them in the case longer than that evening.
