I am sad to see the people on here who are not getting married in Disney trying to chime in and make the brides feel bad. If it was your big day and you just found out about the changes after the fact you too would be hurt regardless of your contract wording. So please if you can't say something nice, say nothing.
I also felt as though I was lied to. I had a conversation with my planner who has been fantastic about easing my fears. She knows I am in no way ecstatic about some of the changes going on but said she has passed my feedback along about the lack of communication Disney provides.
My issue is not with the construction going on at the GF although I have been told that there are no garauntees that there will be no noise during the ceremony. They said they can ask the construction workers to stop but it will all depend on how far behind/ahead they are in their timeline. No where in my contract does it state that the carriage ride may be detoured to go through the parking lot instead of the original private path. That carriage ride is way too expensive to take a route along the road. Sadly this is now the route it will be taking with no notice given to me. I had to find out on here and question my planner about it. When I first went to my planning session I was told that there may be some construction going on during my wedding time frame, however, I was told the construction was happening in Magic Kingdom and there may be a crane or two that would need to be cropped out of our pictures by the castle. So to the people who say read your contract before signing...we did, we asked questions based on the wording of the contract, and like someone said in an earlier post, If Disney isn't going to give us an honest answer then that isn't our fault. We signed a deal based on the information given to us and somehow it just seems okay for them to change or omit some pretty important information.
My heart goes out to every bride this has affected. I know my wedding planning has been so much fun and I was happy that it wasn't as stressful as Bridezilla brides make it out to be. Sadly Disney has put some what of a sour taste in my mouth and caused me to be stressed about what is to come. I don't have faith that Disney will do the right thing and make my day perfect, I have faith that my planner will do everything she possibly can to make the day go off without a hitch.
Try to keep your chin up girls! Keeping a positive attitude and hoping for the best will get us all through this. I tell myself everyday that this seems like a huge deal and a week after it is over I won't remember ever being upset because the day will be perfect.![]()
Like I said earlier I wasn't trying to hurt anyone's feelings. I know all too well about losing what you dreamed of. As I said my wedding was double booked and my planned 9.14 wedding became 11.23 the day after my birthday and often thanksgiving. Being a thanksgiving baby the last thing I wanted to do was share another special date.
I just questioning if they had fully understood the contract and if they had pushed the point with dftw about the contract not stating construction. I know from having a contract in hand that says one thing but becomes another you are entitled to compensation, however we wouldn't have gotten anything if we hadn't asked.
