giftbaskets for rooms

[kitchenfairy]

Hi everyone, my family and I will be at WDW in April. We are staying at PC. I have a DS 7 and DD 10. I have read posts about gifts of a lifetime and was wondering , are you limited to what they have on their site or can you request specific items? Also how far in advance should you contact them? And one last thing, how was everyones experience with them? Would you recommend it? Thanks everyone,sorry so many ? at once.

Kitchenfairy, I have used Gifts Of A Lifetime twice in the past. I had ordered nine Guest of Honor badges from them for delivery to my resort. Those badges were waiting for me upon check-in. I give them excellent marks for that.

However, what I really give them excellent marks for is the Santa's Sleigh Event that they planned for me two Christmases ago. It was magical and you can read all about it in an old thread of mine -- click here to read about my Santa's Sleigh Event. If you click that link, it should put you on Page 5 of my old thread -- that is where I wrote about the event, about a third of the way down that page (I updated my photo link in that thread since Yahoo has recently changed how they handle their on-line photo albums). It was a pleasure working with Jane on that event.

Are you limited to what Gifts Of A Lifetime has on their website? I don't know, but please contact them for the definitive answer. When I was planning my Santa's Sleigh Event, for the gift portion of it, I gave Jane a general idea of what I wanted based upon my daughter's age. The gifts that she picked out were perfect for my daughter -- I was definitely pleased with her work. Go ahead and contact them now. Let them know what you want and see what they can do. April will be here before you know it.

I used Gifts of a Lifetime to plan a scavenger hunt for my ds's 11th birthday. I also wanted certain items to be his reward. Jane was absolutely wonderful. She made great suggestions. She is a mom too so she knows what kids like. I would not hesitate to recommend her. She is very good about responding quickly to requests.

We used Disney Florist for my kids gift baskets.
You dont have to stick to what is on their website. They were very helpful in helping me make a basket with autograph books, pens, snacks, stickers and stuff for my 3 kids.

Here is a photo of the one we got-
