Booking fireworks cruise: would it count toward entertainment expense?

[KathyRN137]

Hello! I'm brand-new to this board so, naturally, I have (at least) one silly question!

I'm planning a VR and due to the limited size of my guest list I'm sure I will be looking at an Escape package if I decide to go with DFTW. My question is this:

I'm enchanted with the idea of a Fireworks Cruise... do any of you know if the cost could count toward my entertainment expenditures?

Thanks, and congratulations on your upcoming fairy tales!

First off, that is not a silly question. Second, if you have triggered the $7,500 min, and you are doing it on your day, then, yes, it should count toward you minimums

Thanks! I think it would make for a memorable experience for my guests!

Hi. We did a fireworks cruise at our wedding in October last year and it didn't count towards our Wishes Minimum as we had to book it ourselves directly, not through DFTW. I highly recommend it though, it was a wonderful way to end our day and our guests loved it!

KATHY!! You are doing a vr?? I can't wait to read your TR

Yes, sorry to say that the fireworks cruises do not count toward ANY Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings minimum expenditure, Wishes or Escape. They're controlled by an entirely different department.

Thanks so much! I'm still in the Dreaming/Blue Sky stage, though. Our 20th is in 2014.

Try lurkyloo's book, passporters guide to Disney fairy tale weddings and honeymoons for TONS of info if you haven't found it already. I don't have a link to post but it's an easy google or Passporter site search. More I do than you could think to ask! Happy planning!
