WoC is not cancelled for most weather issues. Usually only for technical ones.Pretty strong winds forecast for Monday, 04/25. Should we expect WOC to be cancelled?

Yes each person get their own plate plus a bread basket for the table/group.Maybe this has been answered and maybe it's obvious but does each person get their own plate of desserts? Also can this be paid for with a Disney gift card?
I believe I have read that you cannot use gift cards to pay for this. I think you pay with a credit card only when you book it. Please correct me if I'm wrong...Also can this be paid for with a Disney gift card?
Yes you must pay for it at the time you book it. Not sure why it has to be CC and not a Gift Card.I believe I have read that you cannot use gift cards to pay for this. I think you pay with a credit card only when you book it. Please correct me if I'm wrong...
I also want to make note that the desserts served on the plate were quite an acquired taste. Very strong flavors (lemon, coffee, etc.). We brought (and paid dearly for) our twin 4 year olds, and while they loved the light up cups they got, they did not like a single dessert on the plate, and I didn't blame them. They stuck to their grapes and cheese. So much for the "dessert party" we had hyped up throughout the day.
I'm so sorry to hear that your experience was less than ideal. This really upsets me because it makes me feel like Disney is completely out of touch with the needs of it's guests. People are on family vacations so why wouldn't they offer an experience that is enjoyable for family members of ALL ages? The other WOC dining experiences offer kid's menus, so why shouldn't this? I am grateful to those of you who have posted your experiences, along with pictures of the desserts and the menus because it has made me realize that this package is definitely not for us (Disney doesn't bother posting any details on it's website so we have to come here to find them!). I have a very picky 8 year old and there is no way he would eat any of those desserts. He would be so bummed out to see us adults eating and there be nothing for him to enjoy. Come on, Disney, would it hurt you to throw in a basic vanilla cupcake and brownie or something of that sort??!!I want to start by saying that the CMs were all lovely and very accommodating. I feel bad being the only person to post a bummer review of this experience, but our experience tonight was nowhere near worth what we paid for it. We arrived at 725 to a large crowd waiting to be let in. One single person was checking groups in, and one other person escorting groups to tables. It took until 8:05 to finally get us seated (and we were not the last group). By the time they got our drinks and set down our plates of dessert, we had about 20 seconds to see what was on our plate before the show began. We were hurried out at the end. The only truly great part was that we got to sit for the show (although we were sitting at a high table BEHIND another high table).

This experience is NOTHING in comparison to the experience we had two years ago at the Frozen Dessert Party at HS in Orlando. I could not justify paying over $300 for this again, and it kills me that we did this time.
Thanks for your reply. Definitely gives me things to think about as a fellow twin mom (mine are slightly older at 9, but still picky). I am really concerned about your point of "a high table BEHIND another high table". Was there still a row of low tables in front of that also? I would have thought the high tables were ideal for viewing, but not if they put another high table in front of it! I wonder if this a new seating layout they are testing.I want to start by saying that the CMs were all lovely and very accommodating.

There have always been some second-row-high-tables behind front-row-high-tables....I am really concerned about your point of "a high table BEHIND another high table".

Oooops, my bad! I had forgotten about this picture. Any thoughts on the "best" tables yet?There have always been some second-row-high-tables behind front-row-high-tables.
