DISney Princesses are back to party w/ the Pirates! May 2008! *WE'RE BACK!!!*

[tinkerbell87512]

Ok so where do you guys wanna start?

Any thoughts on the cake? Flavor, design? I've seen some pretty creative cakes on the boards and I think anything we come up with (colors or theme) they will be able to do!

As for costumes, do you guys want to stick with the Dis princess theme or would you like to try for a pirate theme?

Just some thoughts to get the ball rolling!

I have a pirate costume, but am okay with going princess. I may end up going to the party Friday night as well so I'll wear my pirate gear then. Were you thinking doing another t-shirt? If so we should start poking around the design board.

For the cake, chocolate is my favourite! I think someone mentioned a Tinkerbell theme and that way we could get our lime green in there. I'm not really sure what they offer but I would think the smallest size would be our best bet since there aren't that many of us this time.

I love the pirate or princess theme! I think it would be a great idea to get a shirt idea going again, since it's easy and fun. Maybe we could do one side pirate theme and one side princess theme, so we can do both. Let's go check the design boards or ask our fellow DISigners.

I'm sure we can request a cake with a splash of lime green depending on whatever way we wanted to go. I've seen some amazing cake pictures too! I think Tinker Bell would be cute! I'm a white cake fan personally, I wonder if they can do marble that way we have both.

Here are some of the designes I've found that I thought were really cute!
Tell me what you think!

I just did some more reading on the cakes we can order and this is the size and price of the cake we will need to get. WDW now has a Cake Ordering Hotline, so it's much easier to order cakes now.

- 8 inch cake
- Feeds 8
- $25


Sounds like a good deal to me!

Great work Lindsey!

I love all those designs. I'm getting so excited. Can't believe we are almost 2 months away.

About the cake: I've been following the cake thread and I believe that cake (The $25 one) is one you can't customize. It comes in I believe white or chocolate and has a mickey picture on the top. Thats the one that makes the most sense for our group since we are pretty small. But it's just the plain cake no fancy lime green Tinkerbell.

Really!? I did not know this. Thanks for the update on the cake information. Do we just want to do that or do the next size up? I read that it's 10 inches, but that must be why the jump in price to $45 because it is customized. We will all be splitting the cost, so it just depends on how much we want to spend, I guess.

Time to take a vote!



Do you think one of those would be a good idea for our shirt? We'll have to take a vote once we determine the designs to pick from. Make sure to post any ideas or designs you may have everyone!

I like the What Happens... with Minnie Mouse. Do we want to add something about the PPP like we did with MNSSHP or leave it more general?

For the cake, a 10" cake is huge. We definately wouldn't be able to eat it all. I will go with the majority vote though

 

[Julie Mouse]

Hi Everyone - I can't believe how time is flying!! I really like the "What happens in Disney designs." Also, is the 10 inch cake a square - 10 x 10? That would be huge. How does everyone feel about leftover cake? Whatever we decide will be fine with me. You all seem like such a fun group! I can't wait to party with you

 

[bbangel]

I just got my PPP ticket! So excited that I got the one with Tinkerbell on it.

Can't believe I'm only 72 days away from my trip.

 

[tinkerbell87512]

Hey everyone! It's getting close now, the month after next!


For the designs I like the Pirate's life for me or the "what happens in Disney..." one. But I will go with which ever one everyone else wants.

As for the cake I will go with whatever the majority is as well. Whatever size we pick I think there will be leftovers. If we get the cake at O'hana's then we could get lockers like we did at MNSSHP last year and put it in there. I'm sure the restraunts will have boxes for us to split it up and take it with us. Just a thought.

 

[Fairy_Tale_Bride]

Most of the cakes I have always seen are round. I have seen a few rectangular cakes, but the majority is round. Everyone go play and visit around on the Cake Thread a little to get an idea of the different cake designs and options. Then, we can all get a little better idea of what we would like...http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1173219

We don't have to place the order until about a week or less before our dinner, so we have plenty of time to decide!




I also like the "Whatever Happens in Disney..." shirts. I'd really like to customize them again too with our DIS names. I thought that was a great touch and we need something about The DIS on there too. Does anyone know a location or website, where we can customize shirts? I'm not sure exactly where to go, so please give us some ideas.

Thanks everyone!!!

How about this one? It is an 8"

Or we could go more exotic and pick something up at the Boardwalk bakery (they don't deliver)

 

[tinkerbell87512]

That cake is wicked cute Megan! Looks like there would be more than enough cake for all of us.


As for the shirts. I think we could use zazzle.com. They have a wide selection of tees and you can upload your own designs and add text.

I'll warn you though, it's a bit expensive. Though, the raglans rock!

Hoped I could help Unless you want to spend $19 a shirt Be my guest.

That's a really cute cake! I'm sure they have many options they can do with Tinker Bell, so we can always be surprised. We can just let them we know we want a lime green theme too. That's the 8" size I was talking about. That should be $25, right?

I don't think $19 is bad at all. It'll be atleast $15 probably anywhere we go when we are trying to design them ourselves. What did we spend last time? It was close to that price, which I think is reasonable. Are there any other options other than Zazzle? I have used that in the past because I ordered a shirt for my Mom with Jack Sparrow on it. If anyone has used any other websites, we can try that too! I'm up for any options, but it may just be a good idea to use the same site or location.

I've heard really good things about CafePress.
