Thanks Aimee for putting this together. It is cool to see how many of us there are!!!

First of Congrats!!! My answers are below....

Hello, everyone! I am new here and I just wanted to say congratulations to everyone! It must be so exciting!! I am hoping someone could answer my two questions that I have as I am trying to get some information about a possible Disney Fantasy Cruise Line Wedding in the Summer of 2012..

1. Can anyone tell me what other expenses I should be aware of with the wedding package? I know it's $3,500 for CC which is the location I want, but i was curious to the extras such as an on board photo package (not interested in any park photos as time is an issue), extra people attending (around 20 total), flowers for the bridal party, etc. I just want to see how much approximately it will be after all the extras, and if there is any thing else I am unaware of!

The cost only includes up to 10 people including the bride & groom. Anyone guest after that is an additional $20 each. They have three photo packages that start at $350 and goes to $1,000. The flowers for you and the groom are included, but the others are pricey. I am making my own flowers/corsages/boutonniers to save some costs. I'm sorry but $30 for a coursage is ridiculous!

2. Is it really 12 months to the date that you can book the wedding? I would just hate for it to be 12 and then see other's already booked ahead of me when i was unaware! I had someone tell me 16 months, but I am assuming they meant for WDW weddings after lurking the boards. I only have 2 dates that would really work that summer due to medical school, and I'm hoping one of them will work!
I was penciled in before the 12 months timeframe. I called in July for my October wedding and reserved my documents in September when I booked my cruise. You must have the cruise booked first before they will booke the wedding portion.

Thank you all for any help you can give me! I really would appreciate it! Enjoy your planning!

Good Luck!!

Lisa

Thanks for the "wedding list"! It is neat to see who is having their weddings with DCL. Is everyone on the list cruising on the DREAM or any of the three ships?

Still holding out hope for a deck outdoor location... Have not heard a peep from Shanda. I've seen some of the new pics up for the dream. It is really beautiful. I hope they are able to find a special "spot" for us!

I love reading DCL PJ - Who has a cruise wedding PJ for us to read? I have my link below... Look forward to following yours too!

how do i make my picture smaller?

 

[Shannon1984]

I'm also really worried about an outside location. The deck 7 location was great. I was really hoping they would have something similar on the Dream. I would be really upset if I couldn't be outside.

if it is easier for you.. how about you just give us your photobucket link we can visit the pictures there then you posting them on here. or if you have a facebook page we can visit to see the pictures.

i called not to long ago.. i didn't get to speak with shanda, shes really hard to get a hold of, but they said they DO and WILL have an outside location. i guess the trick of that whole question is WHERE lol they need to get a location where it can be private and accessible to hold a good amount of people. i would hate for it to be at a place where people can walk right through the ceremony lol that would be horrible.

I also had the perfect day with our VR...now 3 years ago, and I still light up when I see other brides on their special day. And Disney really did well by me, all the way around. And I think we had similar bouquets!!
