Are there any lurkers or prospective brides out there who have questions about DCL weddings? I know that I felt a little lost at the beginning! Within a week of learning about DCL weddings, my DH and I booked it and I don't know what I would've done without the guidance of the brides on this page!! Are there any brides-to-be who want to share their planning experiences? Any crafty brides have DIY projects they want to share?

Lets see if we can get some dialogue going

I'm still lurking. I sent out my invites FINALLY (Pictures are on my PJ) and I am suppose to be getting my dress on Monday. I ordered it from one of those discount dress sites that ships from China, so I am super super nervous about it. We havent done engagement pictures or anything yet...I am still 247 days away from wedding day!

sorry for the large images.
Will be back soon with a brief summary.

fivepin - these pictures are lovely, do you have any more i could look at to get some ideas, you got the smallest package didnt you, i think we are going to get that one plus the disc, what were the photographers like, did you tell them any particular places or poses that you wanted or did they just tell you where to go and what to do,
any info about the photography would be a great help as we are geting married on the disney dream in may, thanks again,

All the pictures on here are so great, and it seems as if everybody had a relatively smooth planning process with Disney! We are just under a year away from our wedding and I keep trying to think of questions for the wedding planner, but I find the answers within one day of searching on the disboards.

Although, I do have some information that may be useful to future brides. I have been talking to Meredith about my problem with the wedding cakes. I am celiac, and therefore am not really as excited as others towards the cake. I asked if they had gluten-free substitutes, but then figured no one else will want to enjoy a gluten-free cake. They are much blander, and less moist than flour cakes.

Meredith did say that I can have a small little dessert made for me and that I can request which one. I have sailed gluten free on many previous cruises and was happy to hear this, because they have some amazing gluten-free desserts.

Not sure if this helps, but it is new information. :D

I had also had this conversation with Meredith bc my stepmom has to have gluten-free. I was very pleased that they are willing to bring her a dessert.

They have a gluten free chocolate lava cake (missing the lava though), and it is really great! I think I posted a picture of it on my PJ, if not, I will post it later today. I have a bunch of pictures from the last cruise of my gluten-free desserts so I could document them and store them for future use. I find it a lot easier to bring a picture and say "i want this one" then trying to explain the custardy one with fruit.

[dclwonderprincess]

I'll have to check it out bc showing pics sounds like a great idea. Thanks!

A friend of mine has some health issues and has to avoid certain foods. She loves going to Disney because they are some helpful when it comes to that.

[XxsmortzxX]

I am extremely pleased they were able to help out with my allergies(gluten, tomato, lemon, and orange). I can do Disneyland fine, but seven days on a ship worried me! Every morning, the head server - for us it was Paulo on the Wonder - would find me at breakfast and make it his personal goal to see what they could make me. I even got gluten free, strawberry donuts one morning! I was in heaven!

At one point, two of my friends asked me to order the gluten-free dessert for them because it was so good! LOL.

Side Note: I did get around to posting the pictures of the desserts I got on my PJ! Link is in signature!

Love your pictures. DH and I will renew our vows in July on the Dream. I love the shirts on your husband and sons. Could you tell me where you bought them? I am wearing a gown and granddaughter will be wearing a fancy party dress but would like hubby and grandson to dress casual.

[cruisecrasher]

Am I the only one going nuts waiting for the January 2015 sail dates so I can plan a VR?

[Evi]

Fivepin I love the guayaberas.

[elyse57]

Been lurking for a few months but now that we are under a year out, I figured I should start posting

My fiancé and I are booked for our Castaway Cay wedding in November of 2013!

Question: Since the wedding on the beach is not a legal ceremony, would our officiant have to be ordained?

Thank you..
I got the boys' shirts at Old Navy.com. They were on sale for under $10 at the time. In the description it says guayabera. So I thought the bottom of the shirts would be just that type, but when I received them they were regular shirt tails so had to alter them to make it all even. My husbands I had gotten in Hawaii on The Disney cruise back in May. Tommy Bahamas has some nice shirts as well.
