Merry Mixer/Candlelight dinner package??

[amystevekai&bump]

Hi, next year (assuming they do them of course), we will have to tie in the Merry Mixer with our Epcot day, which would mean combining it with a Candlelight dinner package (we have never been to WDW at Christmas and are unlikely to be able to go again, so want to fit it all in!!)

Do you think it is feasable for us to fit in the Merry Mixer, dinner at Le Celier and the Candlelight Processional all into the same day? And if so, what times would you aim for? (We have two young boys - who will only be 6 and 3 yo if that makes any difference to what you suggest!)

Many thanks!!

I think it will be a small miracle (or perhaps just coincidence) if you can pull this off.

DVC doesn't announce the Merry Mixer dates very far in advance. I saw someone post dates for 2009 last week, but that hasn't been confirmed yet.

Meanwhile the Candlelight Processional bookings started over a month ago. And they seem to be tied to the ADR windows which are set to go back to 180 days soon. In 2008 they started taking CP reservations in June. I wouldn't recommend waiting for hard info on the Mixers before booking the CP.

The Merry Mixer can also be part of your Studios day. Simply catch a boat over, enjoy the party and then return (by boat) to the Studios.

Last year the Merry Mixers were on Fridays. This year they are on Thursdays. Who knows if the DVD Marketing Department will have them next year.

thanks everyone - I know it will be a long shot at best, so I will just keep my fingers crossed that it all works out!! (thanks for the tip about DHS - I hadn't thought about tieing it in with that - so that gives me two shots at it now!!)
