Just made my first phone call ...

. . . to DFTW! I can't wait for the coordinator to call me back :goodvibes

I've been lurking on this board for a few weeks and am so grateful to everyone who has shared their experiences, tips, hopes, and fears.

Ben at DFTW said that it sounded like I had done my homework and I told him it was all thanks to this board and all the great members!

I'll post more after I hear from our coordinator.

Congrats and good luck with your planning!! :goodvibes

[stitchlet]

Thank you all so much for the warm welcome!

I'm so glad that you've all given me a sense of how long the turn-around time is for phone calls and paperwork.

This way, I'm prepared for it and not going crazy everytime the phone rings and it's not DFTW, but just a regular work phonecall! :rolleyes1

It's so exciting when they call!!

I'm a totally hormonal overly emotional dork but...
when my WP called the first time I got all choked up and teary eyed!

I think it was because that was the moment it totally sunk in and I realized it was really going to happen!

Congrats and Happy planning! This is so much fun! The DIS boards will help you enjoy every step and make sure you don't go CRAZY during the process:hug:

Thank you for your kind words!

Spoke with Pam yesterday; this weekend, DF and I are going to talk over some of the options that Pam gave us. Once I have some concrete details, I'll be sure to share!

It's all just so exciting - I got pretty emotional (in a good way!) when I was describing it all to DF :cloud9:

Thanks again so much everybody!

How exciting! Did you talk to Pam Pearce? She was my SM- I really liked her - did not have many questions for her as I already knew where I wanted my locations!


Welcome - have a wonderful time and let me know what I can do to help!
I had my wedding at the WP, reception at Ariels and a Bridesmaid Luncheon
that was a Mad Hatter Tea at the GF Conv WhiteHall Room and my Rehearsal
Dinner was at the GF SummerHouse - so any of those locations I will have info
about! Happy Planning

[DisneyFairy19]

Congratulations... Cant wait to hear all the plans you have:goodvibes

[stitchlet]

Thank you so much for the continued welcomes!

DF and I have started to go thru all of the info Pam Pearce sent - wow are there a lot of things to consider! We've selected our date (January 28, 2008) and our ceremony will be at the WP. We're thinking of having our reception at the WhiteHall Room. I might be taking you up on your offer, allisonswonderland :goodvibes

That's about all that's certain right now. Guess it's time to start an official Planning Journal - thank you again everyone!
