MrsDisneyB2B's (Jenny & Vinnies) PJ...Called Disney... and the church was mean!

[Mrsdisneyb2b]

So did you call, Did you call!!! I am wondering!!..lol.

I don't see why you can't do the planning session near Christmas. That would be like 7 months and that is when I am doing mine. I am going to Disney June 6-14th. Are you going in June or July this year?? If you were going in June I will have to look out for ya!

We called. They said that we can only do a sight view in July But thats okay. They said most likely we will have our date since it is a Tuesday (And i pray i have it because it means so much to me) but yay!

i too want to know if you called and what they said. I would love to have my planning session before the six month mark but I was told that because prices can't be locked in we couldn't do it.

Were going July 2-9... When are you heading out there?

So, we also called the Church we wanted to get married in last night and the Priest was so mean!!! He made it sound as though I was pregnant!!! Grrrr

We really wanted to have the con-validation ceremony after the "civil" ceremony in disney for our family. And the fact that they made it seem as though we were terrible people, makes me (a catholic school teacher) and Vin (who works for the catholic diocese) not want to have a catholic marriage!!!

I mean, with how things are going, they should be happy that there is a genuine catholic couple who really is interested in still having the catholic ceremony!!!! I was just so upset by it. The priest changed his tone when I said that I may look for another church then if they have that much of a problem with it.... so it makes you wonder....

But.... Yay, I'll be starting conformation classes soon! Woohoo!

What church did you call? Goodness I've called 3 and they have been really nice, I have a few names for priest direct that have done these before ( I got them from another bride) if you want the info PM me and I'll send it over.

Unfortunatly, a lot of DisBrides have had trouble with the catholic church. You'd think with their bad PR image right now they'd ease up a bit. But, I guess that's not what being catholic is about! Most of the advice other bride's in your shoes have said is be persistent and keep looking until you find someone who makes you comfortable. Good luck to the rest of your plans! NO MORE DRAMA!!!

Ooo okay site visit thats what I meant. Planning session would be done like next year... I am gona push for christmas lol

were heading to disney june 2-9 so I just want us to atleast book while were there since we wanted june 30

We want ours on June 26, '09! Small world! That'd be too funny if we bumped into each other. We'll be in WDW this year june 21-28 on vacay and our site visit is june 23.
Good luck with getting your date! You should be good though since it's a Tuesday. I'm so nervous since we were told we'll have to go into a lottery. The date is super important to us too.

I agree with the other girls too. You can keep calling churches and I'm sure someone will welcome you with open arms. After all, you are very connected to your faith. Good luck!!

Aww that is so awesome. If we get the date we want you will have to say hi! lol..

We are thinking of calling that priest back and saying "Look, WE WANT a marriage sacrament and you should be happy that we are not just eloping and want nothing to do with the catholic faith"

Not that those words will ever come out of my mouth..but maybe while im crying, i can kind of get them out? lmao

Looks like things with the Catholic church haven't changed much in 14 yrs. The priest at our local church stood us up for our initial meeting. I don't know maybe they had enough wedding traffic. DH got really honked(he's the Catholic). My MIL, who couldn't stand for DH not to get married in the church called her priest. We ended up getting married there as he's pretty cool! We have a convent that is in a really pretty location that has weddings, but the archbishop put his foot down that their church is "not an official" one so no Catholic weddings! Fortunately the they do a good business with protestant weddings! You wonder where their collective brains are sometimes!
