Looking for help prioritizing my adrs

[Alexis772]

My 180 is Monday- here are the restaurants we are looking for and times we are hoping for...

11/29- 5:30 chef mickeys or 1900 park fare
11/30- garden grill 4:30 candlelight processional package (I know these aren't out yet- should I book the restaurant or a back up res somewhere else?)
12/1- mama melrose 12:00 fantasmic pkg
12/2- 5:30 1900 park fare or chef mickeys
12/3- 5:30 CRT
12/4- Akershus 12:00
12/5- Tusker house 10:15am
12/6- crystal palace 1:00

We have dd9 and twin ds5- they all sleep solidly 9p-7a, and the boys still nap 2-3 times per week so I don't think late lunch/late dinner times will work for us much.
I'm getting nervous about making the adrs and getting what we are looking for- esp. Since we are a party of 5... Any advice is appreciated! Thank you

CRT and Tusker House should be near the top...Tusker House has become very popular it seems as of late.

I'm curious about the candle light processional too! Should we book the restaurant now and just change it when it gets closer?

11/29: This is the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend so it will be very crowded. You might have to be flexible about the time because guests arriving up to 10 days before you have already been booking the holiday weekend.

11/30: You can book a restaurant as a back up to the Candlelight Processional Dining Package, but once the packages are released (last year it was on July 9), you will have to make a new reservation for the CPDP specifically. Having a reservation at the preferred restaurant in advance will not help because that reservation cannot be converted to the CPDP.

12/1: If you cannot book the Fantasmic! Dining Package online, try calling, although even then it may not be available yet. It is often not loaded into the reservation system until later.
