Guest Viewing at the Poly

[VelvetGloves]

Good evening!
I posted a while back about guests viewing my wedding. Well, my wedding is set to be at the Polynesian on May 12, at 11am. Over Christmas, I was lucky enough to visit the site, and I love it! I was really worried for a while, but I think everything will be all right.
Now, my ceremony is an intimate because I thought only a few people would like to attend. In reality, I have filled up all eight of my guest slots and the five extra you can purchase for an extra $500 dollars. My mother suggested that some people could just stand on the beach and watch. There are only two or three people more who would like to see the ceremony. Is watching from the beach a possibility?
One other question regarding a ceremony at the Poly...do they set up chairs for the guests, or do they just stand during the ceremony? I know I should ask my co-ordinator this, but she is on vacation...again...
Well, thanks in advance for any help.

I have been told that they set up chairs for the ceremony. My suggestion for your extra guests is to do something afterward to celebrate. Dinner, Dessert party, whatever. Watching from afar, to me, would be rather boring. They probably won't be able to hear and would have to stand. Then, they wouldn't even be able to attend the little cake ceremony. I have heard though, that you can box the cake and take it to a restaurant-someone out there please tell me if I am wrong because I am thinking about doing this myself-so that might be an option for you as well. Wow! I can't believe how much I have learned about disney weddings in a month! The people on this board will teach you everything!!
