Definately, IllumiNations is the shown at the end of the day, just before the park closes. Generally this is at 9:00pm. I think they have changed the closing hours for Epcot till 8:00pm a few days a week. On those nights IllumiNations is shown at 8:00. The month of December the park closes at 9:30 so Illuminations is shown then. Once the show is over people start leaving the park. I believe the shows and places to eat are closed. The large gift shop in the ftont of Epcot will stay open so you can shop on your way out of the park.

If there are Extra Magic Hours at Epcot the park is open until 3 hours after the posed closing time for resort guests.

Ok, I am officially freaking out ! I realized today that my contract could be on its way on Monday if we win our lottery... AHHHHH That means I only have a year to do all this stuff and I am totally freaking out... I need a glass of wine

How did everyone else cope with the few days leading up to a year? I am super excited to get married, its all the work that goes into this whole wedding that I am dreading! I am ready to just elope (at Disney of course lol)

Can anyone out there relate to this?

First off some extra pixie dust to ensure you get the day you chose.

Second off, I think it's completely normal to freak out....a little secret, but at times I was more excited about the honeymoon than the wedding . I mean I was super ready to get married it was just SO stressful. However, just know that in the end (no matter what happens along the way) it will be PERFECT because it's your wedding day!!!

You can always ask me for advice, opinions, support etc.....

Can't wait to find out what you hear on Monday!

 

[princess22]

Is it a bad or good feeling?? I'm excited for you and sending some pixie dust your way also!!! (I owe you some anyway, thanks for all of mine!)

 

[camara381]

You're almost there!!!! Waiting those few days is nerve wrecking. Good luck on getting your date.

Just breathe, it will be fine. Either way things go, you still get to get married at WDW, just focus on the things you can control, and let the rest happen as it comes. Your are doing awesome, keep it up.

I saw illuminations from the Cantina de San Angel back in Sept, but I can't wait to see it from Rose and Crown, it is supposed to be an awesome viewing spot, so I'm excited.

 

[tiggersam00]

1st off you guys are the best, I actually think I will be able to sleep tonight knowing that this is normal! You are all amazing, I am so lucky to have found this support system of wonderful people! Thank you all

Thank you Carye, I need to remember to breath every now and then with all this wedding stuff! Your right, all that matters is that Dave and I are both there and happy! PS- You can sit outside on the Rose and Crown Patio and it is very pretty, it was closed when we went b/c of the cold but I am sure it is open now. You will love it

camara381 You're almost there!!!! Waiting those few days is nerve wrecking. Good luck on getting your date.

Thanks Carolina! I am glad you can relate to this whole waiting thing, disney sure can make you nervous! I just have to keep saying 2 more days over and over!

Thanks for the pixie dust Stacey, I am excited about the wedding, I just cant deal with the stress and suspense of waiting... I hope you figure out the photographer situation too, such a bummer so close to Sunday. Maybe it's a sign that there is an even better photographer waiting for you!

You are amazing! Thank you, I am totally more focused on our trip in March then planning a wedding. I wish I just had tons of money to just pay for everything to be done for me, that would probably help this stress lol!
Thank you Shannon, I will def take you up on your offer of support, dont be surprised if you get a frantic PM this weekend lol!


I will keep you all posted, and will try to keep myself busy this weekend. Dave has to help his friend (one of our groomsmen) on Saturday with some around the house "manly projects" which I'm sure will include many trips to Home depot, so maybe I will head out to do a little shopping too... not home depot, but maybe something equally as fun

Thank you ladies soooo much, you all made me feel so much better

 

[Keira1387]

Just relax! I was only engaged for a year. At the year mark that's when things really start to getting rolling. It's the most exciting part. Just enjoy it. Your wedding will be here before you know it.

Thank you, I will try and relax this weekend, I think I will feel really good if I get a good call from DFTW on Monday too! I will just "think happy thoughts" for the next few days Everyone always says it goes by quick, so I am ready to enjoy it

 

[Keira1387]

Yeah waiting to hear from Disney is probably the worst part. I think after I made my intial call to DFTW I called like 3 times that week! I couldn't take it!

When do you find out about the lottery?

 

[tiggersam00]

I find out Monday so I am really nervous! But if it goes well I can sign my contract then too b/c we are at Atlantic Dance Hall which is a 12 month out contract... so now to wait

 

[polynesianbride]

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you! I really hope you get your date! Let us know ASAP!!!!! Don't worry 1 year is plenty of time to get everything done. Alot of brides only have 1 year or less to plan and you already have a lot done! Hang in there, all the hard work and stress will pay off in the end!

 

[padisneyfour]

good luck on getting your date! sending lots you're almost there!

 

[Mrsdisneyb2b]

Of course! It is the restaurant in the Uk in Epcot that has yummy food, really good beer and desserts are to die for! If you try to book around 7:30-8pm you can see Illuminations right from your table. It's really nice and a lot of fun too. Perfect for your honeymoon!

OMG thank you so much for that I never realized it was there! I am wriitng that in my honeymoon itinerary now...Maybe that will be another surprise for Vin the first night

Now if only i knew what time illuminations would be during july...oh lordy
