Joe wanted more information about the "Rehitchin' Ceremony" at the Contemporary Resort:
My name is Joe and I have a question about getting rehitched at Epcot, where basically your waiter renews your vows Goofy-style in the Garden Grill at Epcot. Have you ever heard of it? I read about it on the Intercot boards and when I called Priority Service reservations, she said she never heard about it. I said I saw it on a "unofficial" Disney site, and she said, "Well, there's your problem," and repeated that she never heard of it. I would really like to do this, so I was just curious if I got a uninformed cast member, or if the program is no longer available.
Joe -- The "rehitchin' ceremony" is a very informal, fun, and free little gimmick that is available over at the Garden Grill. Basically, your server and any available characters (and other servers) take on the task of helping you and your significant other renew your vows. How well it all goes and how funny it turns out depends a lot on the server and the supporting cast, as well as the reaction of the guests (you and your loved one). Whether or not you get a certificate and cake seems to vary, too. Sometimes the ceremony is done and it's just for fun with no giveaways, so if you just decide to have fun, anything you get as a gift can just be a fun addition.
Unfortunately, as you have experienced, many of Disney's reservationists are not even aware, so if you'd like to do it, just ask your reservationist to make a note of it on your priority seating. If they say they don't know what you're talking about, just ask them to humor you and put on the note that you'd like a "rehitchin' ceremony."
You may want to stop over at the Garden Grill sometime before your priority seating (even a day or more before) and confirm in person that the note is there. As an alternative, you might be able to take care of it right when you show up for your table.
Unfortunately, when the reservations folks aren't well-trained about these special little things, they're not able to do as good a job as they might otherwise.
Joe wrote back a few days later with an update:
Thank you so much for the info. I called back and the next cast member was much better. He said he never heard of it but instead of just brushing me off, he actually took the time to ask someone else about it and it sounds like it's going to happen and be a lot of fun. I still can't stop thinking about the first cast member's negative comment when I mentioned I saw it on a "unofficial site". Web sites like yours and Intercot make me more excited about going to Disney than the Disney Web site ever has.
