Holidays Around the World booking

I've made an ADR for Teppan Edo that includes the Candlelight processional and Illuminations VIP seating. Can't find any good info on the WDW website about the logistics of this. We have a 4:10 seating for a 6:45 show. Does this mean 6:45 is the Candlelight Processional time and Illuminations is to follow? Where do we sit for Illuminations and when to we typically need to arrive? As usual, the WDW info is sparse. Any info from you folks would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, you have it right. They will give you your passes for the CP at the restaurant (when we were last there, it was a sticker you had to wear) and tell you when you should line up for the show. We actually found we needed to get in line earlier than we were told at the restaurant because the package line was already very long when we got out of dinner.

Illuminations will be at its normal time (9:30 at that time of year). There will be reserved viewing space just for CP package holders and they will tell you where it is. I have recently watched from reserved viewing space between the twin gift shops at the WS entrance - I think that's where they do it for the CP packages. I don't believe there will be any seating though for the fireworks, just a roped off space to stand.

Be sure to not leave the restaurant without the stickers! Last time at Le Cellier they forgot to give them to us and I turned around as we left Canada and went running back for them. Had I not known from Dis information, I wouldn't have even realized we needed a sticker, and It could have been a real issue...or at least a long walk back to get them!
