Anyone found a great spot to seat large groups? We have 10 people, all together, and most places have not been able to accommodate us, and that is with me calling 5-6 months in advance! Is there a great spot for large groups?

Also, Le Ceiller was full for my birthday, so I booked the Garden Grill. I didn't really have a backup plan, so I am not sure if that is good or bad. I know it is a character meal and they have the disney grown veggies. That is about all I know. Any recommendations?
 
Have you considered splitting your party up into smaller groups? I'm sure it's much easier to get tables for 4 or 6 than it is to get tables for 10.
 
For a large party...Ohana's, AP & Moracco we have always done well with.
 
We went with a large party once and had no problem with seating at CP and Beirgarten and Japan Teppanyaki place
 

We have a party of 11 and have ADRs at LeCellier, Kona, Concourse, Coral Reef and WCC. While they always tell us we may have separate tables, the restraurants will do their best to keep you together. In the past we have ended up in separate tables everytime we ate at CRT and the Plaza. The 50s PT has always accommodated us. And Trails End will do their best too. We have one table at the YCG.
 
There are very few places that will tell you that you will be seated at one table. Almost all of them warn you that you will be at 2 or more tables. That being said, they will do their best to push tables together so you can all sit together or at least have the tables near each other. So ... if you're waiting for a SINGLE table, I would say that you need to go ahead and book with multiple tables and hope for the best.

FWIW, we were a party of 12 in August 2006 and we were seated together at Boma, Cape May Cafe and the International Dinner at Epcot. We were in side by side tables at 1900 Park Faire and Teppanyaki (1 1/2 tables across from each other).
 
We have a group of 12 and have two places where we are told we'd be sitting at one table- Jiko's and Cinderella's Royal table.
 
I was able to get ADRs for my party of 13 at R&C and H&V. Later in the trip our smaller party of 8 has ADRs for 50s PTC, Artist Point, San Angel Inn and Cape May Cafe. Most of them show us at 2 tables, but we've been told since we have seatings during the last 20 minutes and first 20 minutes of the serving period that we'll be sat together.
 
We are a group of ten going the friday before Thanksgiving. We are booked as ten people for Cape May Cafe Clambake, 'Ohana for dinner, Crystal Palace for breakfast, Coral Reef lunch, Sci-fi dine in -two cars-, and we split up 7 for San Angel & 3 for Nine dragons.

two years ago we were a group of fifteen and were able to get into Wolfgang Pucks, Chef Mickey's, Donalds Breakfastasaurus, Sci-fi, 1900 Park Fare and they split us up at the Liberty Tree. Usually if they split your group up your tables are next to each other and at the same time. Good luck with your planning.
 
Forgot one......Narcoossee's, plus you can see the fireworks and the water parade.
