Hi Cassie,

Glad to see you back with more of your trip! The towels, bottle and bags worked out great. The water bottles are very cute.

Neat pictures. Looks like a fun start to your cruise! I think getting the bags/bottels/towels just right was worth it; they looked fabulous together!

Cassie,

another great update! Love the pics. Wow, the Hummer limo!!! My kids (and hubby) would LOVE to do that, lol How awesome to have the Roots with you to capture such wonderful memories.

Hi Lisa, I am so flattered! That is so kind of you. What we did we did for convenience and tried to make it as fun as we could. What is your dream wedding??

We had about 70 in the suite for cocktails. It would be fine for 100. The double doors open into the hall way and there is a big area in front of the elevator you could overflow into. There is def plenty of space.

We took the whole fleet of pontoon boats and ended up not using one. The Marina was AWESOME and refunded it back to us. I want to say there are maybe 8 and we ended up with 7? They each roughly hold 10-12. 6 of them have music piped in. 2 of them don't. I was worried about it - but all of the boats tied up together to watch the show so the lack of music on one boat didn't seem to be a problem. If you have 100, take the 8 pontoon boats and the Grand 1 for your bridal party you will be in good shape. If you google it you can find the prices. They were each 2 something. $280 maybe?? They may have been less.

Wishes is my favorite as well! One of the reasons we ended up at the GF was because I wanted a hotel either on bay lake or the seven seas lagoon - specifically for the fireworks.

I was really upset when it came to an end too. LOL I am working on the cruise pics! Glad you like it so far!

Thank you for the answers! So far I am planning on getting married at the WP and having a night reception at ADH, I was going to do a DP but now I am totally going to steal your wishes idea, and your cocktail party prior to the Wishes Cruise!

I would love to really officially plan my wedding....just waiting on a ring from the bf of 3 years.....

If I were to win the lottery and have the wedding of my dreams it would have to be renting out MK and having an elaborate castle wedding! Which I have accepted will never happen!

I cant wait to hear more, bring it on!

Oh, I also wanted to say I love your dress! I was actually looking at that one and one of the Cinderella dresses. If you dont mind me asking, can you give me a price range of what your dress fell into? I cant find any actual KK prices online or on the boards.

I like how the waves on the cake were incorporated into everything else, like the towel, water bottles, etc. What great attention to detail!

The cruise is looking like it was so much fun! It makes me want to go on vacation! That's awesome that you had the Roots with you for the whole cruise! I'm sure you got so many great pic's.

 

[Sccrmnky2005]

WOW!!!!!!!!! Yes it was def. worth the wait!! I'm sooo amazed by everything so far!

I love the bags where did you order them from? I've been trying to find cute bags but not SO huge that no one will use it after the wedding. I've found so reusable bags but they are always so big!! I would love to know where you found these wonderful bags.

Can't wait to hear more! I bet this was the best time! I love cruising!!

Now that you have posted your towels and bags...You cake matched so well!

I love the cruise pictures. It makes me want to go back sooo bad!!! How cool that you had the flower in your hair for your card picture. Hmmm Now I want to sneak a flower on. LOL

The Roots pictures are great! I am sad it was too cold for the sail away party, it is so fun! Atleast you have some pictures of it.

Sounds like a good plan!! We looked at the Castle - we didn't go that route because of construction. Have you looked at the Disneyland Castle? I like your plan - especially the Grand Suite/Wishes part - it was my favorite part of our wedding. I remember all of the if we won the lottery wedding plans LOL. We finally gave up on powerball.

Jb proposed after 4 years. I am sure it will be soon!

I can take a look at the tag in my dress and see what it says I think list was like 4500 or 3600 or something like that... NO nobody ever removed it. I didn't realize until I went to take it off that it was still there.

I got the dress on sale from a bridal store in CA. I paid $700 (new with tags)for it with free shipping. Since I had to pay for our entire wedding myself I had to make cuts where I could and the dress was perfect!! Because the dress is part of collection 1 any store that still has it in stock will prolly be trying hard to get rid of it. I would call all of the stores on the KK website if you really like it. One other thing I should mention is the straps just as a heads up. In the picture on the website the straps are down - like Belle. But I think after that picture was taken the dress was redesigned to have the straps be up - thats how I have seen other brides wear it. After buying the dress I lost 30lbs and Carolyn Allens did a great job taking it in, but they had to take it in so much that the straps wouldn't fit up over my shoulders - which was fine I wanted it to look more like Belle - but it didn't work as you can see in a bunch of our pics.

Good luck!

I can not believe you only paid $700 for that dress! That is a steal, and I can not believe that no one ever took the price tag off the dress!

I like the dress so much better with the straps down, if I were to get this dress I would wear it that way. I am a big fan of strapless/off shoulder dresses.

Wow Cassie, I love all of your leaving for the cruise pictures and the ones on the cruise. Sorry to hear it was too chilly to enjoy the Sail Away Party. Glad to see The Roots did though and got some of it. Your Suite looks amazing. Love the door magnets. Did you design those yourself? The towels, water bottle labels, & tote bags look awesome.
