Merry & Bright Dessert Party ..any news?

Seems the dessert party is already totally booked? I tried to get it online just now, but no matter what date I look at it says nothing is available. I don't have any set dates yet either (AP) so I was looking at a LOT of different dates. I really wanted to do this :(
 
Just booked online, thanks for the tip about just typing in Merry & Bright, it worked right away. Calling Disney Dinning I was in a 30 minute waiting period
 
I've been trying to book online since 6am, and I can't even get it to highlight to try to book anything. This is really frustrating.
 
I was able to book online but my husband was also trying (from work) and he wasn't able to get it to work an we were trying at the same time. Strange!

**Edited to add I just was playing around with dates and tables for 4 were still available on 12/11 and 12/12. Also, with the dinner party, each guest gets a keepsake shadow box
 

I booked online also, it kept closing down on me and then it finally went through. I'm booked for 12/16. I'm so excited about this trip, this is our first time going to WDW at Christmas and doing all the holiday activities.
 
Argh! We tried to book on Dec 18, and it is blocked out. We have all ADR set and this is the only day we had planned for DHS. We recently figured out that this is the date of release for the next Star Wars movie. I had hoped they wouldn't be doing much extra in the park, but that is the only reason I can imagine that one particular date would be blocked out. Now I don't know whether to try to move reservations around to do HS on a different day. We have already snagged an H&V res for an alternate day but it is at 7:15 and the system won't let us book this party overlapping.

Phone agent said the meet time for this event is 6 pm, and it has a 1 day cancellation policy.

Phone agent said the meet time for this event is 6 pm, and it has a 11 day cancellation policy.
The 18th is listed as a blackout date, unfortunately!

I was able to book it online just now for the 14th, and the cancellation policy in the confirmation said one day cancellation :)
 
When they say one day cancellation policy does that mean you have to cancel within 24 hours? I called in this morning but was spooked off by the price and having to pay in full. If I pay in full today but change my mind before the trip (looking to book on 12/4) should I be able to get a full refund?

yes you'll get refunded in full as long as you cancel at least a day before your reservation
 
I tried booking from 6:00-6:58 online, then I just started dialing. Got a CM pretty quickly but she also told me my dinner reservation at 5:30 was a conflict for Dec. 28th. I'm glad I told her to go ahead and book it since I've now learned it starts at 8:30 that night. She also told me check in was 6:00. Oh well, I am estactic that I was able to get a reservation! The Osborne lights are probably in my top three things to see in Disney world during the Holidays.
 
There seems be a lot of them in there now.

I noticed on the description, there are no reserved seats? That seems odd considering the Wishes party has reserved seats.
 
No reserved seats, wish there were! Still don't know why I was unable to book online .Would like to know for future reference.
 
Just booked our dates at 1pm est today. One date is a party of 9. no problem getting spots. Pricey, but worth it since it is the last year.

The CM I spoke with told me I have until 11pm the day before to cancel - just a little bit better than 24 hours. I booked the dinner party for Jan 2 - my only option as we are adding a day on after a cruise. If you see a lady throwing down a ton of food and wine - its just me trying to get my money's worth
