Alicia & Matt's -VR at the beach and celebration at WDW!!! PG 6

[aksunshine]

Thanks for the pic comps!

Of course, if I can't get Canada, I will probably with Seabreeze Point. We plan to rent DVC and stay at BC. We went there this year to eat at Beaches and Cream and Isabelle and Matt acted like they REALLY wanted to stay there. My first thought was BLT, for the monorail with the baby, but I think we will do BC instead. I'd LOVE to have a 1 bedroom, but I don't know if we can swing it with everything else.

Hi there! I jsut read through your whole PJ.

I am soooo sorry for your loss. What an amazing family you are to overcome this!

I can't wait to hear more of your plans!

 

[aksunshine]

Thank you Katie.

So Canadian Waterfall is our first choice (if we can swing it, I imagine it will be a premium location).

If not, then Sea Breeze Point

I talked to Matt a bit about location dillema. He likes WDW better I think. He said more people would probably come. I thought so too. So I think it is going to be WDW! As long as we don't surpass 16 guests we'll be fine... Do babies even count? I know Isabelle will. So maybe 17??

I think we were posting at about the same time on the DCL thread and found this report. We/I changed our mind from a DCL wedding to a WD wedding too This way we will have more guests too. Their are so many add ons for a WD wedding.... For the cruise we were booked for a balcony too but now hoping to swing the Boardwalk.

Love your dress ideas and flowers.

Thanks!

Hey my friend.....love the pictures you posted from 2007. I love that one picture of all of you!!! It's one of my favorites. I also can't help but smile at the one of Levi using the fork. He was so adorable. I am so sorry sweetie!!!!
Call me later if ya can!!!

 

[MousekaMaddi]

Ive been hoping to hear your news as I lurked around the boards! Congrats!!
I often think of your sweet Levi and send you a hug and a prayer for strenth and everlasting memories. Be well and think happy thoughts!! xox

 

[Boardwalk_bride]

Hello, I am glad to see another possible Canada bride. I hope you get everything you want....you have definitely been through a lot, and you deserve something really special

You look amazing in your wedding photos as well!! Your family is so cute! I wish you the best of luck with your current pregnancy!


FYI - The Canada Terrace does cost quite a bit more than the normal Escape package, but it does include extra elements. (the exact price isn't out yet though..I don't think I get it until January). Also, children 2 and under do not count toward the 20 people limit.

Thank you. I figured it would cost more. I haven't tod Matt about the costs yet... I did find that info on babies the other day. It helps. My sister will be coming with her little one, too.

I know I haven't posted in a while, but things keep changing so much...I don't think I could keep up on here! Seriously, though, I have to consider everything. I think if this were our wedding, I would want the best, but its our VR, and it's special, but I don't want to go overboard. Matt wouldn't go for it. I know him too well!
As much as I want to have our VR at the Canadian Pav, for personal reasons, I am leaning a bit toward Swan. It would be half (or less) the price. It will still be wonderful. We won't have many attend, I just know that. So, I am looking at an Illuminations cruise as our "celebration" I'd love to have a DP, but with so few ppl, it isn't practical.
And one more change, Matt and I sat down and talked about our dates a few days ago. He doesn't like that time of year, it will be hot and fairly crowded. I was trying to avoid taking Isabelle out of school. Oh well! I can't get everything. So now we are looking at the week following Thanksgiving. I've never been that time of year.
So I am thinking of arriving at WDW friday after Thanksgiving ( I know it will be crowded) and having our VR that Saturday. That way, some may be able to come due to the holiday. But I'm not sure.

More interesting....I found some beautiful light blue dresses!

I Love this one!

This one is pretty too, and $200 less!

 

[padisneyfour]

oh those dresses are both so pretty.... good luck with all your plans

 

[Boardwalk_bride]

It is good you two have thought things through and are doing what is right for you. I think that a wedding/VR at the Swan would be just as beautiful, and if you like the location, it makes sense to go with the least expensive one. There are still so many amazing things you can do that are part of disney. And, you can use some of the savings to have an AMAZING meal at Le Cellier!

I love the dresses, especially the first one! It is amazing! Going after Thanksgiving would be nice. Hopefully more people will be on holidays, plus, it will be perfect weather (well, in my opinion) and the decorations will be up!!!!

Look forward to hearing more!

I am sorry to hear about your loss but pray for many blessings to come your way. I love this dress and thank you for sharing the site. I'm addicted. They have unconventional styles for gowns and colors and I love it!!! You can't beat the price.

So this morning I ordered my little sister a WDW DVD and customized maps. I gotta get people planning. We have a YEAR!!!! OMGoodness! I have been trying to decide how to break it to people we haven't told that we have moved our VR up. I think it is too soon to send official invites. I know only a handful of our family will come. They just aren't Disney lovers like we are!

What do you think?

 

[aksunshine]

Thanks! I like the first one better, but I wish it didn't have a train. I don't feel that I need a train.

I know that we are going to do an Illuminations cruise. I just wish I knew if I needed 2 boats?

What about this? Its a magnet. I will probably do Mickey and Minnie.

Since we are moving our VR to a different time of year, I don't know about putting Lime green in my flowers. Should I just do Blue and White? There are so many things to think about now.

 

[coteau_chick]

Subbing. I followed you from the disboutiquers. Can't wait to see how it all goes.

 

[aksunshine]

Thanks Laura! I hope and pray all goes well for you and little Grace tomorrow!

 

[aksunshine]

I started a Wedding website. It is a work in process. There are SO many pages!
