Cakes and Napoleons and F&W, oh my! Planning our Disney wedding!! UPDATED 9/15!!!

And of course, I HAD to get this picture.


:thumbsup2 What a great idea! I never would have thought of that!

Wow - you really smoked Wingnut on Buzz. I am expecting that he had a gun malfunction. You know how sometimes those guns just don't fire.

Too bad you missed out on BOG. That would have been fun. But who knew?

What a simple gorgeous day. And it looks like no one is there.

Nice mega update!
 
How I love Magic Kingdom at Halloween!! We experienced a MNSSHP in 2011 and I have to say it was one of the best events I've been to! I cannot wait to go back during that time again!

I also can't wait to see the new FantasyLand expansion. Just 50 sleeps now!!:yay:
 
Yay for Halloween decorations…the Mickey pumpkin heads are my favorite!

Love the HM engagement rings photo…cool idea!

I agree with you on Storybook Circus. Disney did a great a job, but unless I’m traveling with a wee tot, I’m kinda “been there, done that” with the area.

I’m abysmal at Buzz. Your score is better than mine usually is!

LOL at, “What? I love the smell of sugary goodness!” What’s not to love?!?!
 
okay I just want to be there right now!!! I can't handle waiting anymore AGGGHHHHH I'm gonna go crazy!!!!
 

Yay for an update !!! Loved you MK photos. Looks like you caught it on a good day. We always find that it isn't very crowded on party days. We loved MNSSHP though !!! I can't wait until the NFL is completely finished. We were watching Cars last night and I was getting excited about the prospect of Cars Land at DHS. Of course it will take years for that to happen, but DHS really needs something like that.
 
Casey's without crowds? What is that madness?

"We wants the keys!" :lmao:

Oh man! Too bad you just missed out on Be Our Guest. But hey, at least it'll always be open now!
 
I would have been tempted to eat 2 lunches too! Im guessing that Wingnut would have reacted a lot like my DH would if you had suggested that :)

Love the ring pics! We have only been to HM once in the last 2 trips, and I forgot to look for it.
 
Of Course they ask if you'd like to try out BOG, after you've already eaten... always works that way! LOL

Crane pictures are annoying! I understand why it's there, but it is still very annoying! haha

I always love all the halloween decorations they have in the parks! Beautiful :)
 
I can't wait to see those fall decorations again! :love::love::love:

Bummer about lunch at BOG! I think you made the right choice though in turning it down! That would be way too much food! popcorn::popcorn::
 
I would have been really tempted to pretend that I hadn't eaten lunch! That would have been a really awesome experience. I'm not a big fan of circuses either, and my kids are really too old for it too. But it is extremely well done. I wonder where you are headed for dinner? Hmmmmm??
 
Comfy shoes and no crowds sounds like a perfect way to spend time at MK! I loved the new circus area too and didn't think I would. The colors are fantastic, so bright and cheery!
 



I LOVE this picture! What a great idea!

That's too bad about BOG! Did you get a chance to return later?

It sounds like an excellent afternoon in MK!
 
Magic Kingdom in the fall is wonderful! I enjoyed jumping back in time a few months through your pictures this evening. :thumbsup2

Too bad about the BOG offer. That would have been a nice experience. I am hoping to have a counter service meal there in March.

I just love the entrance area to Adventureland. :)

I loved those autumnal decorations! So pretty!

It would have been!! That would be cool if you could visit the CS!

I think Adventureland has my favorite entrance too! :goodvibes

Oh those Halloween decorations make me so happy! I was in MK on Halloween as well, not in the morning though. Sigh. I will miss the lack of orange when I return in May.

You look great! I love having full hair/make-up and a casual outfit on. It's my glamour compromise. I can only do so much. LOL. Your engagement photos really are amazing, it was well worth the high heel pain!

Oh my God... that Be Our Guest situation. WHAT A TEASE.

Awww we must have just missed each other!! We were there until the early afternoon!

Thank you!! Hahaha yeah, I definitely wasn't going be walking around 100% fancy that day! :rotfl:

It really was a tease!! Too bad!

I need a closer look at your dinosaur shirt, STAT!

Okay, so where exactly is the ring in the Haunted Mansion queue? I tried to find it when we were there last month and was unsuccessful.

Also - I'm so glad there is someone else who has as many issues as I do on Buzz. I'm seriously terrible.

Dinosaur shirt close-up!



I think it's my favorite t-shirt lately! :thumbsup2

The ring is (while you are walking through the interactive queue) to the right of the Captain's area, near the fence where the queue loops around to get to the actual ride. There are chains up where you can first see it, but when you wind back around closer to the Captain, it opens up and you can get close to the ring.

Hahaha I am AWFUL at those types of rides! :rotfl:

Hi Sarah! Your engagement photos are awesome! They really capture the fun and playfulness of your personalities. Thanks for sharing your save the date - love the photo you selected! Your stylist/make-up artist did such a great job making you look so glam! :cutie:

There's mermaids at the beginning of PotC?? How fun! I'm going to have to pay attention. Just like I have no idea where that ring is in the ride queue for HM.... :laughing:

You are practically a galactic hero with your Buzz score! :yay:

Thank you!!! :goodvibes

Yes, they were just added! They are apparently in the water too as you float through the scene, but I didn't see those.

Hahaha I don't think the galaxy stands a chance if my Buzz score has any determination! :lmao:

I am with you on loving the halloween decorations. I truly do love Christmas... but for some reason fall decorations seem fun to me in a whole different way.

I can't believe you didn't do the test for BOG! If only you hadn't just ate!!!!

Great update!!

I know what you mean! The holiday ones are fun and festive, but these are just so beautiful!

I know, I know! Shockingly, there IS a limit to how much we can eat! :laughing:

Thanks!! :goodvibes

Hahaha no, the pitiful score is mine, with me trying my hardest! :lmao:

Yeah, it was just bad timing for us, unfortunately!

I loved all of the Halloween decorations, they were so pretty!

Yay, how exciting that you'll be there so soon! :banana:

I loved the Mickey pumpkin heads too!

Thanks!! :goodvibes

Yeah, there really wasn't THAT much that we could do over there, beyond wander around in a loop and then head over to Tomorrowland! :laughing: But it was fun to see everything!

Hahaha I think this was actually one of my more impressive scores! :thumbsup2

okay I just want to be there right now!!! I can't handle waiting anymore AGGGHHHHH I'm gonna go crazy!!!!

Hahaha that's the way I feel reading TR's too!!! :rotfl:

Yes, it was a great day to visit the MK! I know, it's going to be so exciting when everything is completed!! :wizard:

Casey's without crowds? What is that madness?

"We wants the keys!" :lmao:

Oh man! Too bad you just missed out on Be Our Guest. But hey, at least it'll always be open now!

Hahaha it was practically empty when we were there! It was a little before lunch, I think that helped!

Yes, I'd love to visit it at some point!
 
I would have been tempted to eat 2 lunches too! Im guessing that Wingnut would have reacted a lot like my DH would if you had suggested that :)

Love the ring pics! We have only been to HM once in the last 2 trips, and I forgot to look for it.

Hahaha if we didn't have dinner planned, I really would have considered it!

Thanks!! I like that it's a lot easier to find now with the new queue, the old ring was much trickier!

Of Course they ask if you'd like to try out BOG, after you've already eaten... always works that way! LOL

Crane pictures are annoying! I understand why it's there, but it is still very annoying! haha

I always love all the halloween decorations they have in the parks! Beautiful :)

Hahaha yeah, it was bad timing, unfortunately!

Yes, but it'll be worth it to see MK all finished with the construction! :thumbsup2

I can't wait to see those fall decorations again! :love::love::love:

Bummer about lunch at BOG! I think you made the right choice though in turning it down! That would be way too much food! popcorn::popcorn::

The fall decorations were so pretty!

Hahaha yeah, we would have been VERY full after that! :laughing:

I would have been really tempted to pretend that I hadn't eaten lunch! That would have been a really awesome experience. I'm not a big fan of circuses either, and my kids are really too old for it too. But it is extremely well done. I wonder where you are headed for dinner? Hmmmmm??

If we hadn't eaten lunch, we DEFINITELY would have gone!

Comfy shoes and no crowds sounds like a perfect way to spend time at MK! I loved the new circus area too and didn't think I would. The colors are fantastic, so bright and cheery!

Hahaha yes, a great combination! I loved the colors there too, they were so fun!




I LOVE this picture! What a great idea!

That's too bad about BOG! Did you get a chance to return later?

It sounds like an excellent afternoon in MK!

Thanks!! :goodvibes

No, we didn't get to go back on this trip! Maybe in the future!
 
Sigh... Disney Halloween... so wonderful... I really want to go during Halloween and see all those decorations...:goodvibes

I don't eat hot dogs very often... usually at baseball games in the summer(hmmm...that's kind of ironic) but there is something about the one's at Casey's ... pretty yummy ... and the views aren't half bad either...:thumbsup2

You have awesome self control... I might have taken that CM up on the BOG offer cause I'm just so nosey that way...;)

The whole new circus area is really picturesque... the characters to meet in the tent are cute as well...

ahhhh P of the C... and the Haunted Mansion... my two favorite MK rides...

It smells unbelievably good in the Confectionary... just seeing your picture I could almost smell it... kind of like a scratch and sniff...:cloud9:
 
I loved your engagement photos! Every single one of them! Your dress is so pretty too! Where did you get it?

Bummer about the BOG invite. I think I would have found a way to fit all the food in my stomach. Beauty and the Beast was a favorite of mine growing up, so it's like a dream come true to be able to eat there. Crossing my fingers the lines won't be too crazy when we go.

That dino tee shirt is too cute.
 
MK with all the fall decorations is really nice. Those pumpkin Mickey heads on all the light posts are just too cute. :goodvibes

What luck with the BOG offer. I mean, if you hadn't eaten at Casey's, you never would've run into someone offering you a test run at BOG. But because you'd just filled yourself, that's of course why the CM made that offer. :rolleyes2
Oh well, next time you go back you won't have to worry about that issue since the restaurant's open to everyone now.


I know what you mean about the Storybook Circus area. DH and I actually haven't even taken a really good look around, because we know it's more for kids. Obviously, we'll be venturing over there in the future, but when it was just adults we never felt the need to. :confused3
 
I definitely read this update already, and thought I commented. I do that a lot... I have to stop browsing on my ipad!
I LOVE your dinosaur t-shirt!! Super cute!
Too bad about missing out on BOG. I need to see that place some day. :lovestruc
I loved what I saw of Storybook Circus in September. I also don't love Circuses but they did a wonderful job. (Of course they did, it's Disney!)
 
:) Excited to join in (better late than never!).

Loving all the planning you are getting done.

Want to let you know that I have the lawn ornament flamingo, and since my move away from Florida to Maryland he currently has a place of honor in my.....living room!! He is next to the fire place so he feels warm all the time (because that is very important for flamingos..ha ha)
