Lynnie & Timmy's Wedding And Honeymoon TR. More Reception picss 7/27 finally

[Amy7979]

Yeah what a great TR so far!! That was so sweet of Tim to suprise you with the menu and diver! How great!! Loving all the pics, it's so great to see everything you did! Can't wait to hear how the Poly was! I can't believe POR was so horrible about the flowers!?!?! WTH would they leave you a bag of rose petals!?? DUH! Spread them out!

That might actually be standard. When we got engaged at WDW, our travel agent sent us the same rose petals, and they were left in the room looking exactly the same - in the bag, not spread out. The bag was actually tied shut with a Mickey head elastic thing, so I tend to think they were SUPPOSED to be presented still in the bag.

Somehow I missed it...

Was there something else at POR other than not delivering your flowers that caused you to make the move to Poly?

 

[Snowy-girls]

Great day-apart from your headache+your room not being ready .The room looks lovely,really nice.I always look out for the Disney Tat's Guy,but am yet to find him.I have tat's but my Disney one is of Thumper laying on it's back laughing with his paws in the air with my girls names around him.Do you have any tat's?There's nothing wrong with that picture of you,the one where you said you don't look great.x.

Hey Lynn

We go to WDW in Oct of this year for our "planning session" but really its just an excuse for me to get a much needed Disney fix . The last time we both went to wdw was when we were both 13 & 14 yrs old so things have changed quite a bit since then . We ve been DLRP a few times which was great fun but i dont think anything can compare to the World itself!!!

We re getting married next may but im having a major dilemma on locations at the moment . I ve been dead set on WP for way over a year now but have just recently had a change of heart towards Seabreeze Point. I ve seen lots of beautiful pics of this location plus theres not gonna be very many of us at all at my ceremony so think we all may look swamped at wp, that SBP maybe a more intimate & fitting location.

OH WHAT TO DO

Lynn im hoping you maybe able to help me with a few question i have, what happens if it rains on your wedding day when your locations SBP?? Are you still able to go a head with your ceremony here or does it get moved? If so do you know where to??

Oh 1 more question (sorry ):
With the beach pics can you have them taken at the beach at GF or can it only be the beach by SBP when this is your location??

Sorry for lots of q's, i just really could do with some advice as im super confused on which location to pick

 

[Jessbell34]

Oh Lynn, I am so jealous that you found the Step-sisters and Lady Tremaine! I hope I catch a glimpse of them when I am there. That is also way cool that you met the tatoo guy! Great experience.

I am also so glad you are a David Cook fan too! I was way excited that he won because he is a native Missourian like me. I live south of where his home town is.

Well, I can wait to read more trip info. Keep it coming!

 

[Nicola2010]

First thing I did when I woke up was marched my butt to the front desk and checked the heck out of POR...I packed up the night before lol....so all I had to do was wakeup some some mascara on my eyes.

When I checked out I felt kind of bad because the lady who checked us out was the nicest woman there..Oh well.

I went back to the room and we had the nicest man come and pick up our bags to transfer to the POLY,he transferred our cake and my flowers! He said it was the first time he ever transfered flowers lol.

My mom and dad dropped thier bags off at the bell hop to hold until they were getting picked up by the magical express then it was off to the MK for breakfast at Crystal Palace.

As soon as we got to MK Tim and I ran on the monorail to go check in at the poly

while my parents headed over to the Crystal Palace to check us in.

We get there and YES I'm so HAPPY!!!!!!! We dropped off the laptop and 2 bags at the bellhop and picked them up when we got back.

Alrighty we get to breakfast wait like 10 mins and we are seated..we had the nicest waiter,he was awesome. Ok they have the best french toast..it was soo good. Here are some pics. We had some pixie dust on our table!!!! So cute!!!

We went and got some food and Tigger came over to the table first..my mommy loves Tigger

then the rest came over

I have to say that brekfast was very good there....our waiter came out and surprised Tim and I with a certificate and a cupcake!!! He had us make a wish,blow it out and then he tapped one of our glasses with a spoon to make us kiss...it was soo cute!

I look HORRID in these pics because I didn't have much time in the morning to make myself pretty,I was anxious to leave POR and check into the POLY.

After breakfast we hung out in MK for a little bit..I wanted to show my mom the tinkerbell in the drawer at the tinkerbell shop so we headed over there..When we got out I noticed the step sisters and my mom and I ran over...let me tell you they are a riot..so funny.

While we were in line there was a woman in front of me who had some disney tattoos so I took a pic of her back and I told my mom about the Disney tattoo guy who had like 1300 disney tats.

We made it up to them and they were so funny!!!! They asked me where my prince was and i pointed Tim out and they were like oooh does he have a brother..I told them yes an older brother and they asked his name,I said Russell and they then talked into the camera and left him a message it was soo funny..I need to post the video...here are the pics..I like how the photographer got a pic of tim recording..I think it's a great picture.

They were awesome!

After that we went on Philar Magic,parents loved it.I started to get yet another stinking head ache so we headed over to the POLY to get a shower and take some medicine.before we exited the park Tim aid to me hey did you see thatg uy with all those tattoo's I said no where..I turned around real quick and it was THE DISNEY TATTOO GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I chased him down lol

I caught up to him and asked for a picture lol..he was so nice and said yes he does it all day!!!! He had somebody take the picture and he told me he got married 3 times in Disney and he was the first person to get married there and he just got 13 new tattoos and that he has 1500 all together!!!

I was so happy I got to meet him!!!!!!!


We get there and my room isn't ready yet..UGH..so we sit around and I was getting impatient...I went into a store to buy something...oh a cute headband to were to PPP and the lady at the register was so cute..she said to me hey you have a phone call and she handed me the phone.It was minnie and mickey saying congratulations and they were talking about wedding cake it was soo cute.

Ok we call the number they gave us to see if our room was ready and it still wasn't..at first they said it would be an hour then the third time I called she said 3pm..it was only 12 no way was I waiting around for 3 more hours..I felt gross and my head was killing me I needed to sleep before the PPP...

My parents were outside walking around and I found them and I told them the room wasn't ready that they might as well just go back to thier resort or do something else...I started to cry cause I'm a baby lol and they told me to relax our room will be ready soon and to have fun! We said our goodbyes..I went back inside the lobby and there was my husband with our bags and he said we got our room!!!!

While I was outside with my parents he went to the front desk and asked if we could please have a room now please..the guy said since your on your honeymoon I'm going to give you some Disney magic..he upgraded our room and he gave us the pool building..they call it that..it's the bulding between both pools...we had the samoa building which was perfect.close to the main building I loved the location.

Finally I get to the room!!!!

We took a nap as soon as we got there lol!!

Ok time for me to play my wii fit more later
oh and I'm so happy David Cook won AI!!!!! WOO HOO!!!
xoxox more later

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i cant believe i just read that about american idol! MY EYES MY EYES! I havent watched it yet sob sob!

No they were not SUPPOSED to be in the bag...he ordered them from the website and they are shown in a heart shape..it's what they are supposed to do...Our bestman did the same thing for Lisa when he proposed to her and what do you know...there was a heart of rose petals on the bed.

 

[Lynn5700]

Somehow I missed it...

Was there something else at POR other than not delivering your flowers that caused you to make the move to Poly?

Yeah there were other reasons I discussed in here..didn't care for it and I'm not bringing up all the issues again..if you want to know then read the whole TR.

Like I said it is a nice place just not disney enough for us and we didn't care for it..it's not a big deal,I just don't recommend people staying there for a honeymoon just my opinion...if you like it good for you then I'm happy,to each thier own.

 

[Lynn5700]

Great update Lynn. Sorry about your headaches. I get them too, so I know how bad they can be. We were going to have our wedding in May of 2009 but switched to January partially because of the heat, which seems to trigger mine.

Can't wait for more!

January is a great time to go!!!! Your wedding day will be gorgeous...the waether is so nice in January!!!!!

I only got the headaches because of the cold..by saturday I was back to my normal self because the cold went away!!! Sorry you get them...I'm lucky to get one every once in a while.

Great day-apart from your headache+your room not being ready .The room looks lovely,really nice.I always look out for the Disney Tat's Guy,but am yet to find him.I have tat's but my Disney one is of Thumper laying on it's back laughing with his paws in the air with my girls names around him.Do you have any tat's?There's nothing wrong with that picture of you,the one where you said you don't look great.x.

AWW your tat sounds sooo cute!!! I love Thumper!!! I don't have one..I would love to get an ariel tat but I would want it in a place where you can't see it so what is the point of me getting one lol.

Hey Lynn

We go to WDW in Oct of this year for our "planning session" but really its just an excuse for me to get a much needed Disney fix .

Hi!!!! When are you going in Oct...we will be there from the 1-8........ Who are you using for your photography...I used Randy Chapman,not disney and I think if you ask your photographer you could have pics anywhere you want...just depends on your time and thier time..

Umm if it rains they take you in the conference center there,that's what I was told and what was stated in my BEO...

I hope this helps

Oh Lynn, I am so jealous that you found the Step-sisters and Lady Tremaine! I hope I catch a glimpse of them when I am there. That is also way cool that you met the tatoo guy! Great experience.

Can't wait for an update! Your pics are great! I have a quick question about your bouquet... was it the french style hand tied one they offer on the website? I ask because that is the one I picked with two different color roses and if it looks like yours I'm set and happy... thanks!

 

[feline figaro]

Nicola2010:

Hey Lynn, great reading!

Quick question - I've read the issues you had at POR so when you say the POR isn't Disney enough how do you mean? Was it the bad service or something else? We are staying on property for at least a week thanks to the money my grandparents left us and were looking at POR.

We spent a couple of nights at the Boardwalk last year for Tim's birthday through DVC and absolutely loved it. We'd never stayed on property before but we got 'bitten' and want to stay on property again.

We've asked Randy to take some pictures with us at the resort we will be staying at for our honeymoon as a lovely reminder of my grandparents.

The people are miserable and not very helpful...when I was checking out and switching to the POLY they made it seem like it was this big production when it wasn't..it took them 30 mins to see what rooms were available at the POLY..when I called over there it took them a minute to tell me what rooms they had available....I called after they called because I wanted to see why they wouldn't let me go over there that thursday night...POR said because of my package..POLY told me that's not true all you have to do is check out and come on over we have the room now so the POLY called POR called me back and said to just go back in the morning and check out(I'm guessing they gave him a hard time because I could have left that night if I wanted to,the guy told me I could).

When I went to check out I finally had a nice happy woman..wish we would have gotten that from the get go.

Thursday night when I was trying to check out there was a woman behind me complaining because they messed thier rooms up..she had 10 kids with her and apparently was supposed to have 3 adjoining rooms..well they gave her two that were next to each other and the other room was on the other side of the building....I heard people complaining about the busses..one woman told me she waited 45 min for a MK bus and when she asked the next bus when MK bus was coming and why it took so long he told her it gets slow around here after 11 AM.....I never had problems with busses at Sports and caribbean beach this place was a nightmare with busses.

So I kind of felt sane that other people were having issues with the resort because I felt like it was only me.....the concierge people were rude..we went there one night and some dude was behind the counter and Tim said sir excuse me to ask a question...the guy looked up with this ignorant face and said were closed..Tim was like oh I'm sorry just wanted to know where the Bellhop was..so that was like another attitude we got.

Like I said it is a lovely place as far as the grounds and the rooms but other than that that is it. Others have loved it so maybe you will..Tim and I are just used to happy and helpful CMs..I know you have a bad day every once in a while but I'm sorry as a hair stylist I work with the public everyday and if I'm having a bad day I don't let it show,you have to be a professional.If your not a happy person and can't deal with people then don't do a customer service type of job.

If your budget only allows you to stay at a mod then I recommend Caribbean beach...our room was very nice when we were there and the people were great!!!!

Pictures would be pretty at POR though!!!!!! Stay where you want though,don't let what I think ruin where you want to stay.....I do have to say though that I honestly don't get why it's voted the best mod in Birnaums guidebook..it really isn't..I guess because they have the water taxi..it's a nice ride but not the fasted way to get to DTD...oh the horse and carriage rides are nice too...POR does have a lot of things to do there so maybe that's why.

Bottom line service is not what you would expect from Disney. we had better service at Sports and nicer people there too.

 

[Lynn5700]

YEY LYNN... us four need to do dinner together

OK so I finally caught up on your full trip report. I have to say I had my lap top with me in my Chemistry lecture at school and I wasnt paying much attention to the lecture cause I wanted to read your Wedding TR!

CONT....

We woke up I think around 3 so I got in the shower and got ready..when I got out Tim was back in bed lol sound asleep so I woke him up to tell him that I was going to go to Mouse gears in Epcot to get Tim a Pirates of the caribbean shirt for the party.I saw it in there the day before but forgot to grab it.

Before I left the room I grabbed my mothers day cards to send out to my mom and my MIL and a postcard that I was going to send to my work...that's when I noticed my certificate that I got from the crystal Palace was missing so I get upset,something else I thought I lost..Oh well.

I left the room and made my way to the ceremonial hall to buy some stamps for the cards. Along the way I snapped a picture

I went back into that store that I bought my headband in and the same lady was at the register and she said,you were in here earlier right? I said yeah and she said you left this on the counter...YAY it was my certificate!!!!! She then made me another one lol

I bought the stamps put the stamps on my cards and dropped them off into the mailbox!

I made my way to the monorail and got on,went to TTC and hopped on the monorail to epcot..it was a nice ride I love how it takes you through the park.

Alrighty I got off and made my way to mouse gears

I ran in and grabbed the shirt..Tim texted me to tell me that our bags made it to the room YAY!!! paid for the shirt and headed back to the Poly.

I got back and unpacked Tim got in the shower and I think we left around 6 to go to the party.YAY

\


Oh yeah I forgot to mention that that morning when we went on the monorail to check in at the Poly we met this nice guy named Jim who works the monorails.He was so sweet said he had been married for 35 years and retired when he was like 40 and works in Disney for fun and all the perks.

Well when we went back on the monorail we ran into him again and chatted some more.

woo hoo were on our way to the PPP!!

CONT..
