You should have done Deluxe dining, Can you upgrade you might save money.

You should have done Deluxe dining, Can you upgrade you might save money.

I don't think upgrading would save us any money... CRT is already paid for and Cali Grill we can't use the dining plan for. We can use our last two credits for the 2 meals we were planning on paying out of pocket, and then we'll be even, unless I pick something else for our Cali Grill credits, which we were planning on paying at Sci-Fi and Cape May anyways. But, if I keep adding stuff then I'll end up paying out of pocket,

I'm thinking I may just add breakfast at Kona one morning for one credit, and use the other credit at Sci-Fi... and still pay OOP for Capy May on the last day. I don't think I want to plan on a credit for that day just in case we don't have enough time to do it. Depends what time the bus will leave for the airport.

I am going to pull up my spreadsheet tonight and get it figured out... hopefully!

Ok, I was hoping I would be able to get it there because I won't want to wait for it to come in!

CHECK 2 - I just bought our tickets for Cirque Du Soleil La Nouba!!! Section 104, Row G, Seats 3&4! We're going to go on Tuesday, April 28 because none of the parks have evening extra magic hours so it works out and I won't feel like I'm missing anything! I can't wait for Cirque!

And I figured out the dining situation...
I'm going to use 1 table credit for Sci-Fi and 1 table credit for Cape May, which we already had booked and were planning to pay OOP for. BUT, I also made breakfast reservations at Kona Cafe for May 1st! I have to try the tonga toast that everybody raves about!

 

[Angela0917]

Ok, just need to vent here...

Wedding invites were sent out over 2 weeks ago... I sent out 95, and as of today I've only received 32 RSVPs back! The "due date" for the responses isn't until March 31st, but STILL!! It drives me nuts! I can understand a few people trying to decide if they're going to be able to make it or not, but none of my bridesmaids have even responded!!! (Allison_Wonderland... including you!)!! I guess it's not really a big deal, and I'm just being impatient, but note to self: always send RSVP's back ASAP!!!

I am just hoping that I don't have to be hunting people down come March 31st!!

1 month and 15 days till the wedding!!!!!! Can't even believe it!!!

From what I've heard, you'll get a big chunk of the RSVPs on the due date and the few days after, for the people who postmark them by that date. Hopefully by April 1st or 2nd they will all be in so you don't have to call anyone!

 

[tiggersam00]

I have only heard from about 25% of my guests so far, and my due date is April 1st... I think arbolita is right, you will get a bunch of RSVP's right at the due date... and unfortunatly I think I will be playing the hunting people down game as well... we can comiserate together at least!

(Oh and none of my BM's or GM's have RSVP'ed yet eithier, I bet they don't think they have to lolo)

I'm glad to hear it's not just me! Oh, and believe it or not, I think all of our groomsmen have RSVP'd (except my brother)!!! I was shocked!! I thought for sure they'd be the ones I was chasing down... now if we could only get them to order their tuxes....

 

[Angela0917]

So I have 2 BIG checks!!

1. I found a new makeup artist!!!!! Now I just need to nicely fire my first one... any suggestions? I feel really bad, she was really nice, but I was just not happy with her work. Hopefully I like the new one! From the pics on her website, I think her style is definately more what I was looking for!

2. Our Disney trip is PAID!!!!!!!!! Woo hoooooooo!

Exciting day!

 

[DisneymoonJess07]

Yay for a new make up artist! When are you going for a trial!

And for paying in full!

 

[tnkr mom]

Most People never respond on time (including my own FAMILY, LOL!Every holiday I say to myself - OK am I preparing for 15 or 30!) Good luck with the RSVP's - chances are you'll be tracking them down.

Eww ackward situation on the make-up artist but you did the right thing just clearly communiate (with photos) what you are looking for from the new one. The other should understand its not what your looking for; maybe call her when you know she won't answer!!) Good Luck!

Yippee your paid and ready to go!! Are you packing up yet??

I've got the free Classic Disney Music CD (that came with the Pinocchio movie released yesterday) playing right now. True To Your Heart playing now - it's got me dancin' on this dreary day!

Oh yay! I say just do it fast and tell her it is nothing personal, you just decided to go in a different direction. If she is a professional she will understand. It still doesn't make it fun for you to have to do it though .

And the best feeling in having Disney Paid in Full!!! That is very exciting news, you must feel so relieved now, such a huge burden lifted for sure!

I'm not sure when the trial will be yet! I'm waiting for her to get back to me. I'm REALLY hoping it's soon! I'm really excited!!

I don't understand why people don't respond ASAP! I always do... at least I think I do??

I think I may just send her an email... I know it's the chicken way out, but that's the only way we've communicated since I booked her, so I think that makes it ok??

I'm so jealous you got the Pinocchio movie!!! I meant to stop last night on my way home from work, and totally forgot about it! I was going to run to Kmart last night after I remembered, but it was Idol night anyways, so I wouldn't have watched it. I will definately get it this week though! I haven't seen Pinocchio probably since I was a kid!!

I think I may just tell her I decided to do my own makeup... that way there's no hard feelings, right? Or should I just tell her the truth?

Oh, I'm so excited Disney is paid in full!!!!!!! Thank goodness for tax returns!!!!!

 

[MegKate]

I don't think you should tell the makeup artist that you decided to do it yourself - you know how things get around!

GRRR on your behalf for the people who haven't RSVP'd. I'm really surprised that the groomsmen got theirs in so quickly! It's usually the men who are slackers. Here's some for you to help them get to you asap!!

I'm so excited for you your wedding is sooooo close!!!

 

[pinkpixie0920]

I'm glad you found a new make up artist! Who did you go with? You got my RSVP right?

You're right, things do get around quickly... but I won't ever see her again sooo.... I'm mean, huh?

I was shocked the guys responded so quickly!

I'm glad you found a new make up artist! Who did you go with? You got my RSVP right?

Thanks!! YES! I got your RSVP! You are awesome!

My makeup artist is Ginger Papp

I scheduled my trial with the new makeup artist... it's not until March 29th, so I have a little over 2 weeks to go... hopefully it goes well! I'm excited!
