ADR's both dinning plan and OOP...HOW?

[2012DisneyWorldBride]

We are booking our ADR's on Sunday for our 180 day. We are on the Deluxe dinning plan, but because we are getting married and received a comp night, we will need extra meals because you cant add the dinning plan for that one night. Im curious how to book reservations some on dinning plan and some out of pocket. Can we do that at the same time? Im confused how to do both DDP and OOP.

Thanks
Michelle

When you book a reservation is doesn't matter if your on the dining plan or paying oop. Only time it matters is when it comes time to pay your server.

Yup- it doesn't really matter until you're actually going to pay for the meal.

CRT and the dinner shows (luau, Hoop, Mickey's barbecue) are pre-paid at the time of booking so these are the only ones that need to be linked to a dining plan if you want to use dining credits rather than pay with a credit card. Other than that you don't have to link your dining plan to make reservations.

If you are taking advantage of the 180 + 10 you'll need to link your resort reservation, but not the dining plan except for the above.

How do I link a dining reservation to my dining plan? When I go to make a dining reservation through the WDW website it asks for party size, credit card, etc but there is nothing there that allows me to specify dining plan. Perhaps it's on the next page. I did not want to proceed without knowing this answer though.

I believe I saw it, someone correct me if I'm wrong, the page where you tell it restaurant or what park or resort for restaurant, time, date, and party size... In that block on the lower left side in blue writing I think it says something about adding your dinning plan.
