Hey all!
So my fiance and I are getting married March 2015 and it has always been a dream to go to Disney Florida. We decided, as long as finances allow, what better time to go than to celebrate our marriage. We have a few questions as we have never been before and hoping people that have could share some information. We are pricing with Thomson and we are surprised at the cost, we were expecting it to be a lot more expensive than it is coming up as. We are looking at going for 3 weeks if possible but may have to limit it to 2 weeks because of fiance's work. I'm currently a student teacher and most likely to be doing supply work so can be flexible with my time off etc. We are looking at getting the Disney 21 day ticket to make sure we cover ourselves the Orlando Flex Ticket. The time of year is something we are debating, originally we were looking at April but we are wondering whether to go later in the year to allow for more time for us to save to pay it off and for spending money. We wouldn't want to go any later than July if possible. What would be the time of year that you would recommend going? There really isn't too much of a price difference between April and June/July so that's not too much of an issue. Also, in terms of spending money, we understand that as this holiday would be a luxury, we need to limit our spends as much as we can. There are certain things we want to do like swimming with dolphins and get a few souvenirs here and there. Our biggest costs will be the food, now we're not particularly into expensive and fancy meals and enjoy simple baguettes/sandwiches/chips/burgers etc so will be eating on a budget with maybe one or two extra special meals as it is our honeymoon after all
Also, in terms of where to stay, we have priced the hotels such as All Star etc, the 'budget' hotels so to speak as a fancy hotel isn't important to us. Just spending the Honeymoon here is what is important. Would anybody recommend any other hotels or maybe villas or anything other than what we have priced? We are looking for some advice with this also as previously mentioned, we have never been so don't know what is good value for the money or the better places to stay.
Any recommendations that anybody has would be greatly appreciated, we simply don't know where to start with costs or plans!
Thanks very much!
