Hello all
The idea has been planted in my head that I would like to host a private dessert party for my guests in the evening of our Escape wedding, but I understand DFTW place $7500 minimum expenditure on the wedding when you add private catered events. This means that I would have to find an extra $2500 on top of everything else we are planning to spend and it's just a stretch too far! We are from the UK so our trip isn't going to be cheap anyway!
So I am wondering if a private dining event hosted with the Private Events dept at WDW may be an option? I have only found one review online about it but with no dates etc so I don't know if it's current and still possible. Information is very sketchy otherwise
I know I wouldn't be able to have it at Epcot as I wouldn't be allowed into the park in my dress without a DFTW guide
So our only option would be Grand Floridian which is fine, I love Sago Cay, but I just wondered if anyone has any experience in hosting one of these events not through DFTW (to avoid the minimum expenditure element)
It's the food/desserts that I'm wanting so if it's not possible, I'll just have to get my thinking cap on about keeping the family entertained (maybe I'll do a bulk order from Beaches and Cream ) and book into a MK Dessert Party instead for me and DFi!
Thanks!
