We booked a Beaches & Cream for 8:30pm. Our family of 4 will be having the kitchen sink and we are determined to finish it!!

Does anyone know what time Illuminations starts? I'm thinking we'll be so close after B&C that it might be perfect timing. Any thoughts?

Illuminations starts at 9:30pm when the Candlelight Processional is going on.

I did, but apparently my trick of moving it to a later date and then cancelling it was effective.

I called too. Something weird happened and she said I had a cancelation for 6/18 and nothing for today. I know I tried to change days but it wouldn't let me. Not sure what was going on! She said should be fine but to call if I see any odd charges. I double checked all my other adrs after that!

Well-it would be nice if Fantasmic and Candlelight was available for booking....

Got our ADR's today. We got everything we wanted. Not that we wanted much this trip but we got everything at the days around the time we wanted. Even or BOG lunch on our first MK day.

I know everybody is all about ADRs right now but... I am wondering if any of you are considering the memory maker? Why or why not? I'm undecided?

I not only didn't get the ONE adr I wanted the IPO at AKL didn't get it for me either!!! I wanted a dinner at BOG and nothing.... I tried yesterday at opening of ressies and today. I gave up and didn't book anything because I was so frustrated. Paying club level prices and I can't get ONE BOG dinner?

I hope more tables open up

We're definitely getting it. 1. I'm horrible at taking picture. 2. I want us all in some pictures. 3. We like ride pictures. 4. It's our first vacation as a complete family so pics are a must!!!

I think we'll get plenty of pictures & it will be worth it for us. We've never done it.

I purchased it on our last trip, and plan on buying it again for this trip. We love the ride photos and having everyone in the pics.

Yup. We have gotten it for our previous trips and will get it again.

 

[Rickat96]

Yep got it also- April trip had over 800 photos and some videos from some rides. I'll never not get it from now on.

Thanks everyone me and my gf will be going for the first time and will be there four days. It's not a super long stay so I was worried about how much use we would get out of it. However, it would help a lot since it's just us two and our options are selfie picture, ask a kind stranger or cast member or take individual pictures of each other and none of those sound great. We are leaning towards getting it though.

Keep checking. There were still bog dinners when I booked mine on Monday. There's always the cancelation thread too!

We always get this. It's convenient. You don't take yourself out of the picture or are constantly asking people to take your picture. There's all the pics that the photo pass photographer can add into the pics of you (like Tink or Stitch). They also include the in-ride pics, including a movie of you on the 7 Dwarfs rollercoaster. And then when you get home, you get to add a huge amount of finishing touches (borders, characters, special occasions, etc...). And then when you are done, you can download them and email them to whoever you want.

Looks like this gives you a preferred spot for the parade on main street as well as the typical tomorrowland terrace area. Might be worth it on a crowded day, although it is pricey. $79 adult, $39 kids. What is the price of the normal wishes party?
