The next morning we had a lie in and Paul went to the concierge and got us coffee and Danish, we sat out on our balcony and feasted on breakfast. It was so exciting knowing that we were married and just sitting looking out over the lake and towards The Boardwalk, so romantic. The moment quickly died though as Paul got into OMG how are we gonna get all this stuff home mode
So we then decided to pack up a lot of our stuff in boxes ready to be shipped home we were gonna ask Daynas hubby to do this for us and by the time we finished that it was time to get ready as we due downstairs for breakfast with some of our wedding guests at 10.30am. I was really surprised at how many made it Paul and I were dressed and wore our Bride and Groom badges but Paul declined to wear the Grooms Mickey hat I didnt really mind as it wasnt going to stop me from wearing my ears.

We all met in the lobby of the Yacht Club as we were eating at the Yacht Club Galley. We had only managed to get separate tables booked for our PS but the CMs managed to seat us together in two roman tables of 10. Breakfast was really good I didnt realize how hungry I was.
After breakkie some of us decided to go to Epcot so we walked over and we had such a lovely time strolling around world show case. We all did Rio del Tiempo and a few of us had Margaritas (thank you Patrick) then when we got to Switzerland Patrick and I decided to sit it out and sip on our margaritas in stead and look after others drinks whilst they rode it. We admired the Topiareis at America

In Japan we window shopped and watched the drummers, this is one of our favourite World Showcase shows oh and the sugar lady was out making lots of wonderful sugar sculptures. By early afternoon I was shattered and needed to go and take a lie down.

Paul had arranged a surprise for the family for later so we arranged meeting times with them and then went back to the YC. Later that afternoon Paul had arranged to take the family out on one of the Pontoons with him as the captain. It was such fun Id never done this before and it was really good to spend this time with both families.

Ashley had been left earlier in the day on his own at the resort pool because he was tired, this however meant that he didnt have anyone to put sun screen on his back so he was like a lobster and complaining. David and Liane were not impressed with him but they had left him so I couldnt see how they could complain about this. He was pretty miserable so I took him up to my room and lathered him up with some really good after sun to help him. We had a drink in the Ale and Compass Lounge and then it was time to go to dinner. We had booked a table at the Yachtsman Steakhouse. I was really looking forward to my Land and Sea of filet and lobster tail and it was really really good. Paul, Ashley and David had T-bones. Liane the filet and Cameron a cheeseburger. Stephen and Bug had rib eyes and Ariane managed a whole New York Strip we were really impressed. The meal was lovely but I have to say I think everyone was tired and pretty unresponsive. David, Liane and the boys were miserable because they were going home the next day whereas Stephen and the kids had another week. We were off on our cruise the next morning and still had to pack. So after dinner we went back to the lobby and sat and chatted for a little while then it was time to say our goodbyes to the family.
Once in our room we managed to pack mostly everything up and then it was off to bed for another early night.
Next morning we were up and dressed with another concierge breakkie. Then it was time to arrange for some of our bags to go into storage and the rest we were taking with us. We got downstairs and there were some of our friends waiting for us to wish us Bon Voyage we chatted for a bit and then it was time for us to leave. Dayna asked us to wait a minute as they had a surprise for us and they all went outside we were then told it was safe for us to come out and they had arranged a bubble exit to take us to our car, which would take us to the port and aboard the Disney Magic

So we were off on our honeymoon on the Disney Magic and I will do recaps, eventually
To be honest I don't think there are any things I would have changed about the wedding. I tried my utmost to remain calm and not become a Bridezilla, I worked very well with my EM and he more than exceeded my expectations. I could have done with writing some more lists here and there but otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed planning this Custom Wedding and I don't think I was ever frustrated that I was planning it from so far away - it was just a truly Fairytale Day fit for a Prince and his Princess
