Escape ceremony site upgraded floral??

[Kiki La Reu]

I just wanted to start off by saying that I LOVE this site and it has already been so informative! So, I was wondering if the Escape packages still have upgraded floral packages for the different ceremony sites. I remember while looking online awhile ago, I stumbled on a few upgrade packages that included things like petals, favors, and/or maybe floral swags candles etc. for a set price depending on which package you chose. Did they do away with that feature? I sure hope not, they had a LOT of beautiful options and it made it so easy to make the ceremony site look so beautiful without driving yourself nuts trying to think up an idea! If they still have them for this year, can someone tell me where I can find a link to the different options? Thanks so much in advance

I am currently looking into an Escape wedding as well, and am leaning towards the Boardwalk or Animal Kingdom Lodge. I know for both of these locations, floral upgrades are available. I'm not sure about all locations, but I wouldn't see why not!

Hi there! They used to have these really easy peasy 'packages' though...Like one for the Wedding Pavilion had two candlabras with floral and something else and an included favor of wrapped Disney themed chocolates for, say, $975 and another had floating candles with roses down the aisle and a runner for x amount. It was all figured out for you and you could just say 'I want THIS one!' It was so incredibly perfect but I haven't seen anything like that recently

That's so great that you're planning! I think the Boardwalk is magnificent!

With Escape weddings you can add on anything you want really. I did see they had packages (I think for convenience and also as a jumping off point for ideas for brides to be) at one point, but maybe they're revising them?

As far as upgrades go for location floral, we added on the swag and three arrangements plus petals in the aisle and a petal toss. Plus two memory candles...

You mention Animal Kingdom Lodge, but I don't think that is currently an option for Escape weddings.

We were married at Sea Breeze Point on the BoardWalk and we LOVED the site!

Here's a pic of the swag with the floral arrangements we had:

Wow that is gorgeous! I sure hope they still do have those 'packages'...it would make it much easier for people who aren't sure exactly what they want. You know? And the favors they had were so cute...like one had a monogram cookie, another was a white chocolate cinderella coach...just perfect!

What you chose looks amazing! I'm not that creative on my own... I see your wedding was in 2009, and with the risk of being extremely rude...would you mind giving a ballpark number of what those beautiful additions cost you? I understand if you don't want to share, I know that's a personal question but I thought I'd ask...

Hey sure thing! You do the same if you find anything, 'kay?

When you work with your floral person, they'll give you loads of options. The Escape floral coordinator I had and who had been the only one doing Escape floral for years just retired in Feb. I found out. But literally I had seen that swag here in someone's TR I'm sure. As far as favors go or any other details, they're really great with working with you. You can send the coordinator inspiration pics you may see on the web or just ask them what they suggest etc.
I don't have a problem sharing what I spent on floral, but I don't think I have it anywhere handy and I don't remember.
I'm sure it was a few hundred for the three arrangements and the swag...

The thing is, we got to keep the arrangements. Sent one to my mom's room, one to my MIL's room and one to ours. Your coordinator will handle all that. So, it's not like you're throwing away the flowers after using them for 1/2 hour.
Same thing with the glow cubes I used in our dessert party centerpieces. We got to keep them....

This is all so good to know! I assumed that there were no options, just a set of what you're offered and that's it! That's also great that they let you keep the floral! I may stalk your wedding PJ now! I need some ideas...
