Thanks for the feedback. I realized that you all are right.

Though I forgot to mention that we are getting free dining when we are going and upgraded to deluxe.

I have changed the ADRs because I realized that I was making some errors in judgement and I should know better. I have done this many times and was a CM on the DCP a few years ago.

I would do as little CS as possible.

You lose money any time you use your DxDP credits for CS. We love the DxDP, but we only eat TS unless we're in a bind.

For your AK day, I would switch out Fulton's for Jiko. It has amazing and unique food and a romantic atmosphere.

I agree about changing out Fulton's for something else. It gets really mixed reviews with most people saying that the bathrooms are dirty along with the dishes. The staff also seems to get mixed reviews and the wait time is often unacceptable. I had planned on eating there in August but 75% of the reviews were not positive (unlike Earl of Sandwich with is always getting great reviews It looks lovely lit up at night but Flying Fish, or one of the other 2 ts places get much better reviews

When we were in WDW last Oct, we traveled with another couple. It was the first time I had used the dxddp. We ate very little counter service. It was a latish breakfast for us (usually a character meal, believe it or not!!), then a nice table service dinner after 6pm....using 2 credits.
We found that we did just fine that way...if we got hungry midday, we could grab a snack.
These are some of the spots we ate...
Crystal Palace (breakfast), Brown Derby, 50's P/T, Artist Point, Yachtsman Steakhouse, Flying Fish, Coral Reef, LeCellier, Goofy's Beach Blast Breakfast, Tusker House (breakfast).
I would give Artist Point a try...we love it there!! That and Flying Fish are two of our favorite places for a nice dinner.

We usually try to do a buffet breakfast and a dinner. If we choose a 1 credit dinner like Teppan Edo then we do counter service for the meal. If it's fancy we snack through lunch. I think you'd pay less to just pay out of pocket for what you listed, especially with the cheaper breakfast choices.

Maybe do one of the dinner shows? We really like Hoopty Doo.

I suggest that you think about doing a 1 point TS meal for either breakfast or lunch. Then book a 2 point Signature meal for dinner. Use snack credits for either breakfast or lunch. I think you will find that having three scheduled meals a day way too much food and not the best use of the Deluxe Dinning Plan.

I agree...besides, it's your honeymoon, you should be hitting up all the Signature restaurants with your new spouse!!

I only count 17 credits and if I am counting right you should have 18, You have 5 nights booked? You might consider dropping either Biergarten or Chefs de France. Book one of the two for lunch and maybe book Narcoosee's for Dinner. Do you like lobster? Narcoosee's serves that. OR you could book an additional breakfast on Saturday morning. I am assuming that you will be checking out that day and might have time for breakfast.
