Dessert Party

[Brer-Zoe]

Hello,

Having just found this site I am very excited to discover a place with so many answers to Disney Wedding questions! I'm sure over the coming months I will post many, many threads asking for advice but for now I have a specific question regarding dessert parties. We are getting married in early September 2008 and have booked the upper french terrace. At that time of year we recognise we risk rain showers or thunderstorms and are therefore very interested in exactly what the back-up arrangements are. Has anyone who has been married at Disney had a back-up location for their dessert party? If so, which ones are generally used (our group will be about 50 people) and does anyone know what they are like. We are a little concerned that a bland room with no decor or DJ may well be a somewhat poor alternative in the case of rain, especially seen as our dessert party will last from 7.30pm till 11pm. We want to make sure we have plenty to keep us occupied if the worst should happen. Any advice or information would be great.

Many thanks

Zoe

We had our DP at UK Upper, but were not affected by rain.

BUT, we attended at DP at the Italy Isola with another group back in October 07. A huge storm came through just before our DP was to begin. We were moved to the Odyssey restaurant. According to our WP, Epcot will move you where they see fit. I've seen many brides moved to the AA. It depends on the size of your group and what's available. After we ate at the Odyssey, we were then escorted to the Isola to watch the fireworks. We were given Disney ponchos free of charge as well.
