7-night-shoe-shopping-free-full-of-smoke-breaks-Mother/Daughter-PT T-Minus 2 days!

Um, that's what I'd do! Yummy! :rotfl2:

I'm in! :surfweb:

Lol..that's a lot of food even for me!!

I see you are having a DFTW....I am soooo jealous. I am having one in my next life. I think that I should tell any potential bf's that I am getting married there.:rotfl:
 
Hey stranger :) Main St January-May....the best job EVER. I worked at the Markethouse back when they still sold kitchen stuff, and Disney and Co was behind it selling t's and stuffed animals (plush :) )

I worked at MGM from May - Aug that year... we just missed each other. I hadn't realized that before.

Wow how cool is that!! I worked at MGM too but not till 01. Where were you? I was a tourguide at GMR.

So today I have some planning to do, but not for me. One of my good friends leaves next week and I want to get a cake for their anniversary dinner at CG.

I am also stuck because the day we decided to do DHS we weren't going to get there until noonish...but if I do that then we might miss the new Toy Story attraction :(

Yeah, true. It's a lot of food. But it'd be awesome.:rotfl:

Yeah, we're hoping. We've got a while before we can actually sign up for our date, so we've got to hope prices don't go up too much. If they do, we won't be able to. :sad1:

Well I would share with my dis friends who will be down there too :)

I remember when intimate weddins were only $2500...I guess that couldn't last long huh?

That would be really awesome of you! You could make your own dreams! :rotfl:

I know. It's sad. They're $4k now, but they include 2 APs now. But, they're supposed to go up for the next two years or something like that. Which, we'd be doing an escape wedding, with an at-home reception, to save on money, and just bring our closest family, but with a $10-15k budget, it'll be hard to do much more than $4k. So... :confused3

I know...I don't quite understand it either. I mean you don't get much for $4k...it's still cheaper than a normal wedding although around here you can do it for around $10K. But if you figure $4k or $5k for disney, plus honeymoon and an at home reception you are right back up to $10k. Maybe it would just be better to do a Wishes wedding and invite everyone.

Lol I don't know what I am talking about, I need to find someone to marry first...then I need him to agree to a DFTW:lmao:

Yeah. Well, we did the math, and we could pull off about $12k for a totally at-home thing, about $15k for escape and at-home reception, and then about $20k for a wishes (keeping as close as possible to the 10k minimum, but then adding in the things not included in the mins, but not enough people would be able to even make it, seeing as most of our family is here in Michigan, or over in Canada.

WOW....isn't it ridiculous how much weddings cost? I was married once before and after seeing how much we spent...I wouldn't do it again. I want a very small intimate wedding without the houpla. Of course then I see people planning these gorgeous Wishes Weddings and...:rotfl:

Well when I get married, I'm going to charge the guests, so I wont have to pay! So start saving up your money, so you can come! :snooty:
 
I figure I better get back to the business of writing a pre-trip report.

I am in planning like a madwoman mode...except there is nothing left to plan...but there is stuff left to pay, lol.

What's left:
My half of the final payment (to mommy so I can take my time:rotfl: )
KTTK-$120ish
Car Rental-$175 for a midsize SUV for 8 days including tax :cool1: To be split with mom
Spending money-this will be for tips and stuff for ME!!!

Plus I am going to D.C. next week...so I need to pay for my hotel room for that.

I am also struggling with when to go to DHS. I had planned to not go until noonish since we don't typically spend a whole day there and this let's mom sleep in a bit. BUT I really want to catch Toy Story so I am stuck:confused:
 
I hope your mom can go!

I have the same problem with DHS, I don't really like the park much so I don't have it planned for any Rope Drops. Maybe the first week of Sept won't be too bad and we can get FPs at 12. :)

That would be nice. Either that or I am going to run over there early and get some..but that seems silly doesn't it?

And planning your ADRs 180 days before you're going to eat the food isn't? :rotfl: There is no silly in Disney planning! Maybe I'll run in the park and grab some Saturday morning 9/6. We're having breakfast @ Cape May's at 8:50, and DHS opens at 8am that day. I wonder how fast I can get there, out, and to Cape May's!

LOL true....well if you run down that little path from DHS to Yacht Club you could be there pretty quickly...depending on how fast you run:lmao:
 
I found it and I am here now!! can't wait to hear more about your trip!!

YAY!!


So my next update has to be about Tea at the GF!! I have made ADR's for mom and me, but I thought I would take the surprise one step further. I am buying us fancy tea dresses!!
