I guess I should tell her about the wedding huh
I told her we would be meting some of my friends from the internet on the cruise.

Jennifer, does your mom think you are totally nuts? Wait 'til she meets me.

I've decided on one of the songs for the wedding. "You're Still the One". I think that is a very appropriate song for these two mice after all these years!!!

Any other good song suggestions for the wedding. I have the CD player & some small speakers on my packing list. I'll put the music CD together before leaving. That is on my to-do list.

Mickey & Minnie will be bringing their own suitcase. It was going to be my little one on wheels that I take on my trips to Lansing but the longer the list gets, I think they'll have to use Becky's large roller suitcase!

This is so hilarious! I am sad that Dec. 2 is the night we're at Epcot! The problem with having a short trip is that I can't really juggle things around. Maybe we can make it to the next special event! Have a wonderful wedding!

Heck, you should have time to run over to the Contemporary on the monorail for the wedding which starts at 7:15 and will be a very short ceremony. Mickey & Minnie & some of the guests will then be leaving at 7:45 for a fireworks cruise on the lake. There are going to be 4 of us DDA ladies there for the cruise (and I think they all plan on coming to the wedding before hand). You could attend the wedding and also meet 4 of the crazy DDA ladies and some of their families.

I'll have to look at our ADRs and see what time we are going to Le Cellier, because I am sure we won't be able to change it. We have decided we don't care about the Processional so we didn't buy a dinner package. IllumiNations isn't until 9:30, so we might be able to make the ceremony. I guess it also depends on what time we actually get to Epcot that afternoon. I will make sure I get all the info for the wedding just in case!

I love these designs that Maria made. http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=14950392&postcount=342 I really want to use one for Nicky & Minnie's wedding. Any ideas on how I can use them?

There's going to be a double wedding at WDW in December. Stephanie's BABW Mickey & Minnie are going to get hitched as well while they are there. They were going to be the best man and maid of honor but plans have changed. BABW Minnie already has a wedding dress thanks to Christi. I'm working on getting a tux for BABW Mickey.

 

[UP Disney]

Time to get some serious planning done for this wedding. I need some assistance from my creative friends. Stephanie & I are looking at getting Grand Gathering tees for the fireworks cruise and to wear to the wedding. We can have three lines on the back of the tee with 18 characters per line. Any ideas on what it should say? This would be for Chuck, Stephanie, Kevin (Stephanie's sister) and I for sure and any of the others that want to order them. It says it is up to Disney's discretion on whether they will print it so I want to do something safe.

Kate, Julia & Nick sent wedding favors for the guests at the wedding. I am not going to post what now but I'll take pictures and post them after the wedding since I've been told people want to be surprised. Thanks Kate, Julia & Nick. I them and so does Minnie.

 

[UP Disney]

you must post pictures when the BRACELTS are made Darling!!!!

Where are those wedding bands anyway? Can you and the girls make a second set for BABW Mickey & Minnie?

Hey Vicki,

[Steffy]

Hey Vicki,

You forgot to mention that I am bringing the ring pillow.!!!!

And Vicki, I can tell you, it is quite lovely!!!

 

[UP Disney]

Hey Vicki,

You forgot to mention that I am bringing the ring pillow.!!!!

Oh I had forgotten about that. See ... I need help making sure I get this thing planned right.

 

[bear74]

Preparing for the wedding

After a short rest at the resort, it is time to make the final preparations for the wedding.

First, Minnie & I have to finish up the wedding favors. Minnie has found the cutest princess slipper. She was hoping to have some red & green m&m’s but the weather is too warm and we are afraid that they will melt in transit. She decides that they’ll have to go without any sweets and hopes this is ok since everyone attending the wedding will be going on the Fireworks cruise and there are snacks provided before hand. Kate (Julia & Nicks Mom) has made wedding matchbooks with mints to include. Minnie absolutely adores them. The last addition is a set of gold rings. All of this is placed in a little drawstring bag.

Minnie then got herself dressed. Chuck kept Mickey out of the way so that she had privacy. She made sure she had her something old, something new, something borrowed & something blue. She had an old penny that was pressed with Mickey’s impression that she wore in her slipper along with the threepence from Clare, her dress & veil was her something new, she wore one of my pearl bracelets for a necklace as her something borrowed and she wore a blue ribbon as her as a garter. She was a very beautiful bride. She made sure she had her bridal bouquet and she was dressed & ready to go.

Mickey, being a boy, took much less time getting dressed. He threw on his tux, made sure he had the wedding bands and he told me he was ready. The top hat was bothering him so he decided not to wear it. However, he forgot to remind me that his tux needed some adjustments. Luckily, I had a little sewing kit so that I could make them on the bus on the way to dinner.

Chuck & I put on our wedding finery. Matching tees with a picture of the two wedding couples with the fireworks cruise theme. The wedding couple had their own matching tees to wear on the fireworks cruise after the wedding.


Design on our red tees (Don't worry! All but Ginny are stand-in actors for this picture. The grooms did not see the brides before the wedding in their wedding finery).

Minnie & I made sure we had everything packed. Wow, we had a lot of stuff to keep track of. We needed the CD player & CD with speakers, the wedding favors, clothes for the fireworks cruise, wedding bands for Mickey & Minnie as well as their own, and a whole host of other things. We also had glow in the dark necklaces to pass out to everyone for the fireworks cruise.

After we thought we had everything collected, we left for dinner with Kevin & Stephanie at Concourse Steakhouse. Our reservation was for 5:30 pm. Once we walked out the door, we decided if we forgot anything, we’d have to live without it! Now, I can relax and just have fun!

Terry brought the ring pillow. Wow! It is absolutely gorgeous. Stephanie also surprised me with a flower basket. We asked Olivia to be the flower girl. We told her that she needed to pretend that she was dropping the flowers. However, she wanted to have something real so she collected leaves to drop.

After a little while, we realized that we would have to start without Kristine and hope that she would arrive before too long. I had promised her that the wedding wouldn't interfere with the Grand Gatherings Fireworks Cruise that she had spent so much time putting together for us! Next, the wedding of the century!

 

[UP Disney]

Mickey & Nicky will get setup at the front. Guests will form a semi circle around. Olivia will be the flower girl. Terry will be the ring bearer. Stephanie will walk the girls down the aisle. The music will be “Can you feel the love tonight?”.

Wedding vows

Dear DDA, friends & family, we are gathered together here at Disney World in the site of Walt and in the face of this company, to join together these mice in magical matrimony; which is an honourable estate, and therefore is not by any to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly; but reverently, discreetly, advisedly, soberly, and in the fear of Disney fans worldwide. Into this magical estate, these four mice present come now to be joined. If any man, woman, mouse or stuffie, can show just cause, why they may not lawfully be joined together, let them now speak, or else hereafter for ever hold their peace.

Nicky wilt thou have Ginny to thy wedded wife, to live together in the magical estate of matrimony? Wilt thou love her, comfort her, honour, and keep her in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto her, so long as ye both shall live?

Ginny wilt thou have Nicky to thy wedded husband, to live together in the magical estate of matrimony? Wilt thou love him, comfort him, honour, and keep him in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?

Mickey wilt thou have Minnie to thy wedded wife, to live together in the magical estate of matrimony? Wilt thou love her, comfort her, honour, and keep her in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto her, so long as ye both shall live?

Minnie wilt thou have Mickey to thy wedded husband, to live together in the magical estate of matrimony? Wilt thou love him, comfort him, honour, and keep him in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?

Who giveth these female mice to be married to these male mice? (Stephanie will answer)

Mice will hold hands with their intended (with the help of attendants)

I take thee to my wedded spouse, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part; and thereto I plight thee my troth.

With these bands, thee wed: In the name of Walt, Roy & Disney World. (Jennifer, Stephanie & others will assist the mice on putting on their bands).

Those whom Walt hath joined together let no man put asunder.

Forasmuch as Nicky & Ginny and Mickey & Minnie have consented together in magical wedlock, and have witnessed the same before Walt and this company, and thereto have given and pledged their troth, each to the other, and have declared the same by giving and receiving a wedding band and by joining hands; I pronounce that they are husband and wife.

Blessing of the Apaches

Now you will feel no rain, for each of you will be shelter for the other. Now you will feel no cold, for each of you will be warmth to the other. Now there will be no loneliness, for each of you will be companion to the other. Now you are two persons, but there is only one life before you. May beauty surround you all in the journey ahead and through all the years. May happiness be your companion and your days together be good and long upon the earth.

You may kiss your brides.


Stephanie practically waltzed down the aisle with the brides. I sure hope that Jennifer's husband got some good video of that. Olivia decided she didn't want to be the flower girl at the last minute so Jennifer & Olivia did it together. It was a beautiful wedding. Kristine showed up part way through. They had been at the Candlelight Processional and had to rush over from that.

After the wedding, we cleaned everything up and headed inside to get ready for our fireworks cruise.

And there ends the saga of the DDA double wedding.
