that your plans are shaping up quite nicely.
) Your 2 day passes will be good forever so you can use them anytime down the road...
) but it looks beautiful and the food is supposed to be very good... so if you can get it 2 consecutive mornings and are going to MK... it makes sense 
I'm a huge puffed french toast fan!! 
and another yay for TiW!!!! I thought I knew all the restaurants that accept TiW but I learned that Yak & Yeti doesn't accept TiW last trip. Argh! 
If you are activating the AP's DO NOT USE the 2-day passes you get in your package. Simply save them for another trip. THEY never expire!! When you want to use them simply enter a park with them and then go to guest services and upgrade them to the number of days you will need for that trip (or for another AP!!
If your trip wasn't so close I would say to drop the free dining and get the room only (or AP) discount along with using the TIW card but not sure if they would get you with the package cancellation fee of $200 (I think that is what it is?)
Anyways have a fantastic time on your trip! Lots of Pixie Dust in your planning!!
I don't know when you plan on getting your TIW card, but don't forget that you can use it on alcohol, and on any appys that aren't covered by the dining plan. You can also use them at the CS restaurants in the AK, and at the value food courts (although I don't know about AoA?). They are also good at all the lounges around the resorts. I love my TIW card!
We didn't make any room requests at POFQ. We ended up in Building 3, and it was perfect. I'm pretty sure that there isn't an inconvenient building in the whole resort. It really is that small (in a good way!). And you can't miss the food court, you have to walk by it to get to the bus stop-which is how I ended up having beignets nearly every day.
Whoo, Annual Passes are a wonderful thing. I've fallen in love with being a passholder this past year, not only for the TIW card, but also because you can get 10% of any merchandise purchase. In a weekend alone, this saved DH and I 50 dollars.
I don't think it's a bad thing to have 2 CP reservations. It's a great restaurant, and it puts you in MK before/right after opening. But, then again, I've never tried Boma before, so I don't know what the alternative is.
) on that!! Just wanted to let you know that I'm still reading along...just haven't had much time to post with all that's being going on around our house lately. Now, when I actually had time to post, I can't contribute anything 'cause we have never had APs, the TIW or stayed at POFQ. Guess I'll just post one of these
VERY exciting about the annual passes! I had no idea they did that.
Unfortunately I have no idea about TiW or POFQ, but I would suggest you cancel your second CP because I do know how much yall love Boma! You could just load up on the puffed when you're there!
How soon is your trip?
Forgot to post, but boulangerie patisserie is indeed open!!!
Thanks for the report back!!
BUT I'm still excited to give it a try!Gotta love fuzzy Disney math! It's the best. That's awesome that you guys are getting APs with the wedding. I knew that too, but actually kinda forgot about it.
Hahaha, Jen's planning habits are becoming catching.
They really are!!
Wouldn't it be more fun to stick them on the wedding planner's desk and go over them one-by-one, removing them as you go?
No?
Now THAT's cool!
Be aware of the blackout dates if you're in WDW around holidays!
Buildings 2 and 5 are where the action is, near the pool, etc. Building 7 is the most remote. I loved staying in Building 6 with a river view!
I just got an annual pass because since we just bought DVC points, was able to get it deeply discounted and got a TIW for $75 so we'll def safe on food on upcoming trip... it's accepted at a lot of places some that don't do Disney Dining plus alcohol is included (also it really makes it tempting to do another trip within that year time frame...
I've never been to CP (although I'd like to once I get over my fear of Jumbo Piglet
but
If you are planning to go to the AK... well Boma is just a hop away and that is a pretty darn good breakfast...(I've been to that one...and think it's one of the best breakfasts at Disney...)
Oooo so your going to get to see different site locations and compare and think about what you want... and take tons of pictures and post them so other people can live vicariously through your wedding planning... right...
I don't see a problem with CP - two days in a row!!
Yay for APs
How exciting that you are soooo close to your trip Sara!
Mmmmm, twice the puffed french toast sounds tempting!! I actually have not had it, I do not understand how I have missed it, I have eaten at CP three times?!?!? I'm on a mission this time! 24 days and I'll be getting ready to head to our ADR!
That is fantastic that you get APs! Makes sense to start using them and save the 2 day passes for another time (year)!
Hmmm, that's a tough one...Crystal Palace is SO good, but then again, so is Boma...I'd say do both! I can't get a CP ADR for my trip, well actually, I got one, but I really doubt I will keep it, because it's on the Saturday that's supposed to be obnoxiously busy and i'm not sure I'll want to waste all that time eating! 
)
Fortunately, in a much more timely fashion than last time, our Mickey Mail (complete with ME tags) arrived!!!
The ME tags and usual Mickey Mail booklet now arrive together, which makes more sense to me than the other method of separate mailings.
The new luggage tags. They're holographic.
Other than that, really, no updates. We're making lists of things we need to bring/bring back (why not get a good portion of holiday shopping done while we're there as well?).
Oh, and an important crucial question for those of you that were recently there: is Boulangerie Patisserie open during the construction of the new bakery??? (read: what is the availability of the French Napoleons?
for mickey mail! I personally really prefer this years luggage tags to last year as well as the combined mailing. I hated getting ME stuff separate...
just how is it I forgot to get one of those?)With the wedding, we also get Annual Passes from Disney. Which I knew about, but for some reason, thought that you didnt get them until the wedding. Turns out that you are able to get them earlier in the process than I had thought, which meant that we could start using them during our planning trip.
HAHA!!!
(Oh, and just so you know...I just made another Le Cellier ADR...I saw one for Friday, a day that I already have a LC ADR for an earlier time and I grabbed it! I have a problem!!!
I totally forgot that you get AP's with a wedding, that's amazing! My AP just expired, and I miss it!
I've never stayed at POFQ but it does look very small, I really don't think you'd have to put in a room request, unless there is a specific building you're hoping for! I have to really think about my POR request...I want to stay in Oak Manor, because it's closer to everything, but I really want a 2nd floor room...I'm not sure I should do 2 requests, because I'm hoping our room is ready early, and I feel like 2 requests might be pushing my luck!
you are unstoppable with those LC ADR's!!! First,
Second, (and I am not sure if someone answered) but I think the Patisserie is open... I am sad I didn't get to go, but while doing a P&F mission we were in france and I notice a lot of people eating those yummy napoleons. (great, now I am sad...
That is so cool!
AND a TIW card
I just was at POFQ and it is now officially my favorite resort!!!! We were in building 5 across from the pool. It was the BEST location. Just out our door and bam... pool. Or.. out our door and turn right and bam... food court. I think under a minute either way. To the bus it was only a few minutes. I LOVED it.
