Did you guys plan stuff with the families before the wedding?
My family has never been to Disney World so they won't really know what they are doing. However, I feel split like I have to spend time with my mom and that part of the family then my dad and his part of the family and then with my fiancé's family.
The one thing we have planned is dinner with DF family the day before everyone arrives and the day we get there. This works because my family will not be there yet but we will.
However, once my family gets there I am not sure what we should do. Should I try to make plans with my family to make sure they eat and stuff? There are more people coming than just my immediate family so they may want to eat with some of those people. I guess I am just not sure how to do this so people feel like they are getting equal time.
So here is the schedule so maybe you guys can help:
6/27/12: FBIL and GF, FMIL/FFIL/Step Daughter all arrive at Disney
6/28/12: DF and I arrive at Disney at 7:30pm
ADR made for 9:30 this night at T-Rex Cafe (with fiancé's family)
6/29/12: DF and I attending another Disbrides wedding at 2:30pm
Mom/Gma/Gpa arriving at Disney and traveling on DME to resort at 2:30pm
ADR for DF and I at Mama Melrose's for 5pm (should I change this to have a meal with my family?)
7:30pm is our welcome event at Fantastia Mini Golf for anyone that has come down for the wedding
6/30/12: Rehearsal at 11am, Rehearsal Lunch at 12:30pm
7/1/12: Wedding Day (no worries this day, completely taken care of)
7/2/12: Breakfast in the morning at Ohana for all wedding guests that pre-pay (this day we wanted to go to parks with families also maybe trying to have a meal with my family only this day)
7/3/12: My family and DF family leaving/ DF and I officially begin honeymoon
So as you can see I am just not sure what to do about making sure people get equal time. Also on the 30th or the 29th I am going to need to assemble favors and confetti cones and stuff. Plus make sure my dress gets steamed at some point and make sure everything is all set up.
Now I am starting to get stressed can you guys help with this?
