Its still almost two months away from our 180 days, but I've already planned out our ADRs, please tell me what you think!

Not sure if we have time for lunch, ship leaves at 3pm or so?

On our last day at WL we wont be on the dining plan anymore, so I think we will probably have dinner at the WCC.

Fiancee is disney mad, we were at Disneyland in September last year for the first time and loved it, and we both love Halloween even if it isnt that big here in Oz, so where better for our honeymoon?

You are going to explode with all that food. 3 meals a day sounds like a good idea but when you finish a huge breakfast at chef mickys, then a couple hours later have a heavy lunch from le cellar over then a very nice dinner in chefs de France. Even if you have breakfast at 9am and dinner at 9pm you are still going to be stuffed. Don't forget about all the snacks you get too. Good luck

Agreeing with this. I did DxDDP last year (and doing it again this year) and it is certainly a lot of food and closely placed meals will start to wear on you.

I did plan mostly lunches and dinners, but I also didn't plan breakfasts. I was usually ready for dinner by dinnertime though. If possible, when you make the reservations, spread them out as much as you feel comfortable with, keeping in mind that most non-signature meals take about an hour. What worked great for me was planning an earlier lunch (11:30ish) and then planning a later dinner (7-7:30ish).

I'd also look into more signature locations if they are desirable. By my count, you are using 23 of 30 credits, with a few breakfast/lunches still undecided. Now, with that said, and with me not having done the math for this year's higher DxDDP prices, the usual "break-even" point is when you spend 2/3 credits at TS locations, which you've pretty much done anyway (and even then, there's leeway for experience as well), so if you simply are set on the locations you've selected, that's perfectly acceptable as well

Overall, the whole trip sounds great and I wish you the best .
