Need help planning something special!

[StyledSugar]

Hi all,

We leave for our Vegas/DL trip a week tonight! Soooo excited!

Anyways I was hoping someone could help me with some ideas. Our vacation is with my boyfriend, his parents and my two kids. His parents are amazing people and always do so much for us. During this trip they are paying for the suite we are all staying at in DL. My bf and I were talking about doing something special for them in the room. We are already taking them to a character meal so we don't want something like that. We were looking at setting up something similar to what we found online for WDW. Little gifts or whatever.

Now I know DL has the Disney Dream Makers. What exactly do they do and how much is it? I read the website and it says they create your memory or something and will work with you to make sure it's what you want. I'm just looking for an idea of what they will put into the basket or whatever.

We are staying at the Desert Inn and Suites for 5 nights (before moving to PPH for the final two! Yay!!) so will they send something to the Desert Inn for us or do we need to be staying in a DL property?

Any ideas, suggestions, pricing, etc would be very appreciated!

Okay nevermind about the prices, I found them in another thread here. Does anyone have pictures of the Welcome Basket? Or even if you can tell me what exactly is in it would help too!

If you'll give me just a minute, I have the full package stuff with prices in an e-mail, I'll get it.

Here is a copied version of what the Mickey's Grand Welcome is--they decorate the whole room!

Mickey’s Grand Welcome - $310 (tax included)
Mickey Mouse heard you were coming and so he slipped into your room to leave a special surprise! You will find a large, colorful package that has your name personalized on it from Mickey Mouse and a large plush. On the wall will hang a bright, celebrate banner as well as splashy colorful decorations & festive balloons throughout the room. Be sure to take a peek around, you‘ll find lots of extra goodies too. Don’t miss looking for Tinker Bell’s shadow, she’s come by to sprinkle Pixie Dust! There’s even an autograph book on the table, signed to you by Mickey Mouse himself. All of this is not only there for you to enjoy while you visit but every piece is meant for you to take home and continue to enjoy!

I agree with this great idea! If you call ahead the they can add the ears to the package and get them embroidered with the names, thats a great addition to a disney pack

I added the hats (2) to my From Mickey & Minnie with Love In Room Celebration and it was additional $30.

The hats are definitely a great idea! We're going to call them tomorrow to see what we can put together for us. Thank you for the tips and if anyone has any other pics of the actual baskets I'd love to see them.

Looks like you guys had a fantastic time krispin! Thanks for sharing!
