Is AKL worth 3k more over OKW?

[Brian Noble]

they are more similar than they are different…

This is true pretty much of any WDW vacation I have ever taken. Each of the four options (AKV, OKW, Windsor Hills, Bonnet Creek) would have strengths and weaknesses. And price is one of those. If they all cost exactly the same, OR I have couch-cushion-money sufficient to pay for any of them, the decision might be easier.

But, the cost is not the same. and most couples in their late 20s/early 30s getting ready to get married do not have many thousands of dollars in couch-cushion-money. Of course, if the OP does, then aweseome!

For context: historically I've been able to rent e.g. a townhome at Windsor Hills, plus get a rental car and pay for theme park parking for something a little bit less than a single Moderate room costs.

The groom is paying for the room or rooms by himself

Holy crap. That does change things.

I like the Windsor Hills idea. In addition to a couple cars, people should know that with a group size like this, there still may be an uberlyft ride required now and then. The groom will probably still be ahead, financially.
