everything looks great Claire! It's getting closer!!

 

[Boardwalk_bride]

You are so organized! Your time line looks great! I think it is so awesome you get to do so much, and still keep the cost relatively low!

 

[malibustacey]

Having the grand1 will be great to have during the day.... do your guests know of this or is it a surprise?

 

[Petals & Pixie Dust]

How did I miss this?
Anyway, everything looks great! I didn't even know about the Key West Room...Hmmm...Lots to think about! FB mins seem great there...
Love the dress, flowers (I'm a rose girl myself!) it all looks great!!!

Wish it was even closer as its starting to stress me out a bit.

Cost doesn't seem low to me! Part of that is the exchange rate though which was so much better when we started planning.

They don't know about it. Most of them hardly know anything.

Thanks for reading. I was very pleased when I found out about the Key West Room as it meant not having to wait to try and get a restaurant booked.

oh i think its great that your guests have no clue about the day - thats what i want to do!

Can you imagine being a guest at a wedding you knew nothing about- but you knew there was going to be surprises throughout the entire day- how wicked!!

the cruise and DP will just top the whole day off!

Thanks Stace, was having a stress about the cost last night.

Everything comes down to the cost right!? Your BEO is really good- you should not worry about it. Think of what you have on that BEO - what a day you will have - your guests will be amazed!

Dont worry (well i know we all worry abou tmoney) but you know what i mean, your costs are not half as bad as you think, you have done well to keep it down

...and the wedding is creeping nearer!


The wedding is on 30th dec ... are you going to be doing anything / or habve anything special planned for nye? Does Disney do anything special for a nye party or anything?

Going to try and book the Cali Grill NYE then watch the fireworks from the beach.

 

[malibustacey]

We fly out Christmas day and hope to get into MK.

 

[malibustacey]

Do you know if Disney do anything special on xmas day? I bet its nice flying on Christmas day - i bet you will have an aeroplane style xmas dinner on the plane with a cracker or summat! I wonder if they show xmas movies on the plane too! It will be so exciting - everyone will be in a happy mood when you fly - it will be a really happy day to fly out! If only the airline check in feel all festivy and upgrade you to first class on christmas day!...

NYE in disney is awesome! we have been there the past 2 years and again will be there this year before our wedding. stace-if you ever get to go do it. hollywood studios is usually where we go since they have awesome fireworks and music and then stays open until 3 am. the beach idea sounds so romantic though for you claire!! i love it esp right after you are married just make sure that MK has fireworks at 12 on NYE. check the extra magic hours for that. sometimes they do it earlier. but it is a blast. claire you have to go to hollywood studios and see the osbourne festival of lights. it is a light and music show where the streets looks like NYC with all the buildings in christmas lights. it is really awesome! they only do it from Nov to New years.
