[bdps2011]

Now it is 4 days!! I am so excited for you! Cannot wait to hear all about it!

15 days here! Countdown is officially in high gear! I actually have things in my suitcase already.

I think I've checked in online 30 times, JUST TO BE SURE. Called the hotel in Canaveral 4x, just to be sure. Double-checked that I double-checked the honeymoon trip..

Good Luck!! Soon, the stress ends the the wedding just "happens"!!

Just wanted to pop over here and say Congrats and Happy wedding day to all the DCL brides coming up!!! I love DCL and wish I could have done a DCL wedding, but WDW is good too but due to a few people that refuse to go on a ship I had to keep it on land...

I love love love looking at pictures on the cruise ships!!!

Good luck to all of you in the planning process.

Hi everyone-

I apologize up front as I'm sure this is already in the thread somewhere, but a quick search didn't find it (too many people talking about pictures of dresses ). I had a DFTW in WDW in 2007 and we're thinking about doing a Disney cruise for our 5th anniversary next May (Alaska). Since it will probably just be the two of us we're hesitant to pay for the official vow renewal (assuming they're even doing them on the Alaskan cruises, which I haven't verified). However, I'm wondering if we'd be able to book a photo session and wear wedding gear and get pictures taken. We're not thrilled with the Alaska itinerary but we really want to have a Disney tie in for our 5th anniversary trip, and if we could get some "wedding" pictures on the ship, that would be awesome!

Congrats to all whose weddings are soon!

I leave 3 weeks from today! 24 Days until the actual ceremony!

I haven't been on here in forever!!!! I just wanted to say hi to all the new DCL brides!

Hi! Its nice to see you check in, I at least looked at your PJ/TR a lot when first making planning decisions.

I recieved my email from Shanda today asking for my planning guide...I am so excited!

 

[PrincessTinker11]

Oh I totally forgot to post this but I talked to Shanda and she said yes you can bring your own photographer for your wedding on DCL. She stressed that you have to pay their cruise fare (duh) lol But yes, they are aloud! I was very happy that I was not going to have to pretend that our very talented photographer was my cousin

That is AWESOME! What are you doing for your entrance, the bridal march? I am so undecided!

 

[PrincessTinker11]

Hey All....Question!

After your Prelude/Seating song are you having a song (processional) for your bridal party? I finally nailed down all our other songs and this is the last one I am considering....

Thanks!

 

[Goofy4Ever]

That is AWESOME! What are you doing for your entrance, the bridal march? I am so undecided!

Here are my selections....sorry so late.
Seating-can you feel the love tonight
Processional-when u wish upon a star
Recessional-you've got a friend in me
Cake cutting-belle nortte
Our song-they don't know by Jon b

I should have asked Shanda about what the BM's walk in to. I was just assuming that it was the seating song.


What did you decide?

 

[flawlessdreams]

This is what I have decided, thus far I am thinking we are not doing an extra song for the bridal party BUT that may change! lol

Prelude/seating A dream is a wish your heart makes-Kimberly Locke
Processional When you wish upon a star-Pinocchio
Recessional Don't worry Baby-The Beach Boys
Cake Cutting-Sugar Sugar
Our First Dance- Bless the Broken Road Rascall Flatts
Father/Daughter Dance I loved her first Heartland
Mother/Son Dance You'll Be In My Heart Phill Collins (Tarzan)

SO Glad this part is done I was stressing over the music, of all things! lol

 

[Goofy4Ever]

I just added the father/daughter and mother/son dance songs in the blanks on the packet. When the itinerary came back, they were listed on there. We do have to provide our own CD for those songs, but that was no problem.

We are getting married on the Dream in 5 days from now!!! Woohoo!!!

Happy wedding day! I hope it was everything you dreamed it would be!

 

[bdps2011]

The entire party is going with the Cruise Casual suit.

Tan suit, chocolate shirt, bringing our own sage ties.

Best part, they deliver to the ship and pick up. NO PACKING!!

Oh man...I just had my first dress alterations done and they wanted $400 for a hem, bustle, a little taken in at the top and a press. That is the price of another dress!!!! I almost had a heart attack! I ended up going to a local lady, and she is going to do it for $270. Still a shock, but at least cheaper. I just hope she does good work.

Hi Everyone!!
My name is Ginger, and I'm a long time follower of this board. My fiancé and I recently got engaged, and have decided to plan a DCL wedding! Yay!!! Very excited!! =)

To give you just a bit of background on myself, I'm originally from Alabama, but currently living in Perth, Western Australia (attending veterinary school here). My fiancé is Australian, and we met about 6.5 years ago. We're hoping to move to the US after I graduate this year, and are planning a wedding at CC (Disney Dream, October 28-November 1, 2012). We are still in the very early stages of sorting everything out, but I was so excited about confirming my date that I thought I'd post to say hello and introduce myself. Looking forward to seeing photos of the upcoming weddings, and sharing ideas =)
