Intimate wedding(just 2 of us)

[tchan03]

Hi ! I am thinking about having an intimate wedding in WDW with just myself and my fiance. If anyone had done that please share your experience(pictures,advice ...)!

Here are my questions:

1. I know that the intimate package already include 2 hrs of pro photography,but we do plan to have $800 Magic Kingdom Castle photo shoot .
Is it possible that Disney wedding team allow me to do the photo shoot on the SAME day as my wedding day ? This way we don't have to do hair/make up on separate days.

2. For those who had done Castle photo shoot, i know they include twelve 4x5 photo print. But how much they charge approximately for additional prints and one big print ?

3. I know Castle photo shoot starts early like 6 am,do you know any make up/hair stylists (asian would be great so they may understand better what we need) who had experience serving Disney customers and can come in so early ?

4. From the intimate wedding brochure that i got, they didnt mention how much they charge for lunch or dinner, does anyone have that info?

5. Since the lunch or dinner will be just two of us, I know they already include a solo musican. If i want to include Mickey & Minnie, they gonna charge $1000 , just like in custom wedding ? what other entertainment would you personally recommend and how much such entertainment charge?

Thanks for your attention.

1. Yes, you can do the shoot the same day, subject to availability.

2. you geta 4x5 of all the pictures that are taken during the MK shoot. I believe an 8x10 enlargement cost about $25 last year. I dont know the current pricing.

3. Hair & makeup started at 3:30 AM for me.

4. A cake cutting is included in the intimate package. Any lunch/dinner cost is additional, and completely up to you.

5. They will charge you the same amount as a custom wedding to have Mickey and Minnie at your cake cutting. I believe the cost for the two of them is around $1450 at this point, but I didn't have them at my wedding, so I'm not certain.

HTH.

The wishbook states $1,040 or maybe $1,070, can't remember They would be present at the cake cutting reception time. If you have dinner or lunch, you could probably plan that yourself and you could probably stay in your dress if you eat at one of the resorts, not in a theme park. I would consider getting a cruise to see illuminations or wishes as additional entertainment. Good luck with your planning

Dinsey doesn't inlcude a dinner or lunch for intimate weddings. That is done on your own. However when you get your planning packet you can fill out info on the restaurant and time of reservation of your choice and your wedding coordinator will make the ps reservations for you.

FYI you are not allowed the wear wedding attire at any of the parks restaurants.

Here are some of the resort restaurants that * DO * allow you to wear wedding attire:
California Grill (contemporary resort)
Narcossee's (grand floridian)
Victoria & Albert's (grand floridian)
The Yachtsman Steakhouse (Yacht & Beach club resort)
Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show (polynesian)
Jiko (Animal Kindom resort)

hope this helps....

We had an intimate wedding (also just the 2 of us) and we had our 'wedding meal' at the Garden View Tea at the GF. It was great!! The setting was perfect. We had an 11am wedding so the 2pm seating fit in great and we were the only ones there for a little while. We go back everytime we're in WDW and sit at 'our' table
