Rob and Scott's Big Fat Gay Disney Wedding-TR Pg 92; Photo Update pg 133

We're not having programs printed. And I have no problem looking anyone in the eye and saying "our song is by Boyzone". HELLO! They're at a gay wedding! They should just expect it! :rotfl2:

Can Boyzone Come to the wedding...Please! :hyper:

Quick RSVP update.

We sent out our invitations on June 2nd. As of last night, we've gotten HALF of the RSVPs back already! :woohoo:

We asked them to RSVP by August 1st, so the rest sill have a little more than a month before we start calling them.

I NEVER expected the RSVPs to roll in this quickly! :banana:
 
And another quick update.

While we were out running errands today, we stopped at the outlet stores. (LOVE the outlets! :worship: )

While there, we stopped into the Disney outlet and bought WDW coloring books for the welcome bags for each of the kids that we'll have coming. We'll put little packs of crayons in too.

We also found shoes! As in shoes for the wedding. We actually found, agreed upon, and were able to find shoes in our size. And they were on sale!

Here's what they look like.

Okay, I know that this is all really boring stuff to y'all, but we're psyched! :banana:

Congratulations on the shoes, I'm glad you decided against the Cinderella look :yay:

The cinderella look wasn't ever a realistic option. I did however make Scott stop at one of the western wear outlets so I could try on cowboy boots. Found one pair I just LOVED. One size too small. They didn't have any in my size. :(

Oh well, it worked out, we're both really happy with the matching shoes we got. And on sale, to boot! I love it when the stuff I want is on sale! :woohoo:
 
I'm not sure how CRAZY you want to get with the Welcome bags and what you plan on putting in each of them BUT..... I was at our local Disney Store and they are having fabulous sales.....40% of the red sticker. I got lots and lots of stuff for my kids (.59 Magic Towels, 4.79 Bubble Guns, 1.60 straw cups), and our store even had some adult stuff too (I got the T that said "Fit for an Evil Queen.....and I can only imagine the fun some of you will have with that line:rolleyes1 ). The sale just started Thursday, so if you go to your local store, it might not be picked over yet.

Happy planning.

Rob...the shoes are snazzy..I like em a lot! I also think the coloring books are a great idea. MY DH actually gave me a Disney Coloring book and crayons on Mother's Day....that, my dear friend, is why I'm crazy about him.

Congrats too on the RSVP's...at least you know we won't have to eat all the cake by ourselves :cutie:
 
I made a silly post here last night that I feel obligated to remove today. Not because there was anything really wrong with what I said, but the pain in the post below, well, it just made the silly nature of what I posted seems so freakin' wrong, now.
 
Okay, I'm sick to my stomach.

As most of you know, Scott and I met at Pleasure Island. Specifically at 8-Trax during Gay Days 2003. On our first date, our first stop was at the Adventurers Club.

Since moving here in 2004, the Adventurers Club has been our home base. We've made such wonderful friends at the AC. It's a unique place, and other than our house, the one place where we feel completely comfortable.

What you don't all know is that Scott and I booked the Adventurers Club as the venue for our Big Fat Gay Disney Wedding. That's right. Our commitment ceremony is slated to happen on the library stage at the Adv Club.

The thing is, the club is now slated to close it's doors forever on the NIGHT BEFORE OUR CEREMONY!

We spoke the club management tonight and they assured us that they'll honor all contracted events, but now our ceremony instead of being a happy whimsical event will have the sad atmosphere of being the last time we and our friends gather at the place that means so much to us.

I can't begin to put into words how upset I am. We spent our evening tonight at the club with many of our friends, but I was too upset to enjoy any of it, and am crying as I type this. Our friends that work there are losing their jobs, so I feel very guilty about focusing on how much this hurts me. But it does. It hurts bad.

I don't know what to do or what to say. I'm upset, I'm hurt, I'm angry, and I'm confused. I'm trying to keep it together until we we're able to talk to our event planner about this, but I can honestly say that no matter what happens this changes things, and it makes our happy day less happy.

There are days that I wish I wasn't a Disney fan. This is one of them.

I'm sure that WDW won't let you guys down.
I hate to admit this, but I have been to WDW over 50 times and have never been to AC. It is on my list of things to do for our Sept. trip.

By the way, I love the shoes.
 
I am so sorry to hear about the AC and your plans!

I just wanted to wish you a Congratulations and Happy Planning....Just think though, you are still ABLE to keep AC as your venue:) What a wonderful memory you both will have that day....you will always have AC in your hearts:) Perhaps it will make this wonderful day even more special! Your day will be happy!!

On a side note....on my happy day, 5 years ago today:) It rained (ceremony at the Poly) and my inlaws mised the ceremony (enjoying concierge lounge at the GF)!
While I can empathize about AC, a wedding in Disney..is pretty amazing!
Good luck and I hope your event planner jumps leaps and bounds to make your day! Besides, many years from now, when you look back at your memories of AC.....perhaps it will be like the end of a wonderful chapter in your book, and what a way to end it:) Your special day!!!

I'm sorry Rob!:hug: You know, I thought of you as soon as I read about PI closing. I know AC means a lot to you. I am relieved to learn that your ceremony will not be affected. Think of it this way-what better way to close down an establishment that has meant so much to you? Your own BFGDW! I hope you feel better soon.
 
Oh Guys I am so sorry. That just STINKS! There is nothing I can say that will make it better...just giving you some hugs that every thing works out.

Rob, you and Scott are in our thoughts today. I can't even begin to imagine how upset you must be. Your post made me cry. It just breaks my heart, because I can see your pain in every word. If I was anywhere near you, I would clear my schedule just to come to your house today and give you both a big hug and a shoulder to cry on. Prayers and pixie dust for you both in hopes that you can find a way to keep the joy in your special day. :hug:

I second that emotion :hug:
 
I have just now read about your ceremony and the AC. Rob :hug: I'm so, so sorry. As I get older I find this is occuring more and more....places, people whole chunks of my past...gone. The only encouragement I have is that you and Scott wil have your memories...something no one can take away from you. Your ceremony will be a testament of while things around you and Scott change, your love for each other will continue to grow and thrive. Given that the AC has such prominence in your first memories of each other...remind yourself that you will now have a lifetime to make new ones...

I'm so sorry again Rob. I wish there was more that I could do or say. I guess for starters I'll get Wally to back off about the Chicken Dance....
