I just looked up the price of a videographer-
Yikes!
remember that if you're interested in Sunset POinte, which is the Poynesian Beach site... they have a max guest count of eight... correct me if I'm wrong Sunset Pointe Brides!
Also, we're buying three extra champagne bottles for our toast. They have a house champagne for about $40 a bottle and that should be enough if you're not wine snobs like my fam is.
Your guests will recieve 20% off their park hopper tickets and I don't know of a minimum for days for the ticket, but if there is one I'd imagine it would be three. But that's a guess, not a fact!
I think it evens out between the S&D and Disney Escape weddings. I would choose Disney, just because of the feeling you get when you're there. There is nothing like it!
Let me know if you need anything else! I'm having fun!
Oh well, no we aren't attached to a particular brand of champagne-we barely drink at all! Well, it's 6 glasses per bottle, right? So, for 16 people we'd need around 3 bottles. So we'd just have to buy 2 more bottles, making it around $80 extra.
I actually have a friend from France who's dad did that same thing for his kids!
& wouldn't ya know it, the Wilderness Lodge site was my 2nd choice!
I'd like the Yacht Club site because it's near Epcot, so I bet it gets a nice view, but for some reason my DF doesn't like the YC-he says it looks to stuffy....he makes no sense though because he loves the Beach Club, and they are very similar. I don't know anything about Sea Breeze Point, but I think I saw a photo of it-is it in the courtyard of the Boardwalk Inn surrounded by the other hotel rooms? If that's the one, I wasn't too crazy about it for us-it didn't seem very private, I'd feel self conscious during the ceremony, thinking a guest of the hotel was peeking down watching!
I just realized that you are getting married the same month we'd like to! Are you going during the value season part of December or closer to the holidays? Right after Thanksgiving is my favorite time of year at WDW-inexpensive hotel rooms,low crowds, & beautiful decorations!!
It's gorgeous!
You've mixed them up! Yacht Club is the one surrounded by hotels in the courtyard and Sea breeze POint is on the water on the actual boardwalk!
I usually go during value season in January and this is my first time going during Christmas decorations, so I'm very excited. I'm definitely going during the first week of December... I wouldn't go during Holiday season if you payed me!
I just checked back on the webpage with the pictures-Yup, it's the YC venue we aren't crazy about. The Sea Breeze Point one is perfect!! Wow, can you see Epcot in the background??? I would love that venue! I think DF would too. He loves the BW area. I wonder why I didn't notice it before. DF & I were so grump in the afternoon, we just weren't enjoying ourselves in all that frantic hustle and bustle!Woops!!
Looks like if we can't do Poly beach, then Sea Breeze Point it might be! Thanks!
Wow, same as us! We always travel to WDW in January/early February (before Valentines Day when the prices shoot up!). The holiday decorations are just AMAZING!!! Holiday season on the other hand is a nightmare!! My parents used to bring us everywhere when we were young. I"ve heard it's much worse now, but it sure was chaotic that time of year! My DF & I don't do well with heavy crowd volume, which is why we love January. Last January, we had an unusually packed day at MK (due to dance competition groups and other groups and it was a weekend) & it was a nightmare
) that I haven't forgotten any expenses, we can get started on our real planning and start telling our guests about our amazing 2010 wedding!!
Hi Perla,
Congratulations! I am also getting married at Disney in 2010. We are hoping for a May ceremony, what about you?
I dont want to add any more confusion but if you are having an Escape Wedding you do NOT need to stay on Disney property for any of your stay... this room block thing on Disney property is only for Wishes weddings so dont worry yourself about saving any extra pennies for a Disney hotel stay (unless you want to) as that will not be required for an Escape package
Hope that helps?
Will you be there during the Flower & Garden Festival?? Are you doing an Escape package as well?
), but I *think* we might be able to pull it off. & if we end up being able to afford the MK photo shoot, I will be just the happiest girl in the world!!!
