Anyone looked at Celebrations Hotel?

OK...now that we are engaged, my H2B and I are starting to feel the pressure to invite more guests. We were planning on an intimate wedding at WDW, but now we think that the guest count is too limiting. We cannot afford a custom wedding for sure. I looked at the Swan, but H2B did not like the ceremony locations. (He is much pickier than I am.) I read about the Celebrations hotel in the Disney Weddings e-book. From the website, it looks really lovely. I know there are a lot of places in Orlando, but I don't want to have that banquet hall feel. The thing is...if we go for a more traditional big wedding, then I want to have a fancy reception with a band. Well, if anyone has seen the hotel or planned a wedding there, I would absolutely love to hear about it. Thanks!

There is a bride that was around for a while that got married over there... I'll see if I can find her name!

It is a lovely site, but I think it can only accomodate 100 guests. It has a rather rustic yet classy feel, the floors are hardwood - gorgeous and it doesn't have that "giant ballroom" feel. Also, downtown Celebration is just beautiful, especially at night, and the hotel is very charming. Good luck with your planning!
