Ok, so I know it's really late to put this one but I thought you may be interested.
So, cast and crew are:
Me - Karen - one end of the 40 year old bracket
Him - Tim - the other end of the 40 year old bracket
Mom - Pauline - wouldn't dare say what bracket she is in let alone which end
Dad - Dave - same bracket as Mom
My best friend - Kirsty - nowhere near any of our brackets
My best friends Mom - Diane - would be too rude to comment on brackets
This is a picture of all of us - Diane, Kirsty, Dad, Mom, Tim and me
Tim and I have been together for around 12 years and have talked about getting married for around 12 years. It just seemed right to do it now, especially as we had decided that it was going to be at WDW. I have been going to WDW since I was 22 (funnily enough the first time was on my first honeymoon), Tim has been twice before, Mom and Dad just once before and Kirsty and Diane and old hands at the Disney thing. Kirsty worked in the UK section of epcot a while back.
Of course, typically, we picked a time to do this trip and get married abroad when the economy was on it's a*se. Some of the people we invited unfortunately couldn't come and some of the people we invite fortunately couldn't come!
When we started planning the trip the exchange rate was at 1.9+ and when it nose-dived it cost us around an extra £2500.
We wouldn't have done this without Mom and Dad, and they were our key people to be with us. Kirsty has had some medical and injury issues, including blood clots, so we weren't sure she would be able to travel. The fact that she could join us for our wedding meant the world to us, and that her Mom came with her was just an added bonus. They are lovely people, the kind you feel blessed to have in your life.
This has been in the planning for the last 2 years and I wanted to do some 'special' things mainly for Mom and Dad. Like most people, they associated Disney with mouse-ears and kiddie stuff so we wanted to show them a different side to it.
So, down to business. Everything has been planned to within an inch of it's life and paid for, the time has come for it all to be a reality so let the games begin...
ps. Thanks for riding along with us x
