So many questions

[prince&princess]

Hi all

Well it's 4 months today until we leave EEK!
I was hoping you could answer some questions for me please.
1. Does any one know where Daniel can get a traditional cut throat shave in Disney (in the MK area would be best) and do you know what time they close and how much?
2. Any recommendations for manicures in the same area, closing times and cost again?
3. What is the piped in music in the Whitehall room like?
4. How much would it cost to have 4 characters? I know 3 is $1600?
5. Has anyone by some miracle hired baby blue waistcoats from carolyn allens? I know this is a long shot but that is the colour we want and can't work out from the swatches on the website if they have it.
6. We are having or MK shoot 2 days after the wedding. Did anyone have thier dress steamed or cleaned between?
7. If the groom and guests are turning up at the WP just after 11 (after the grooms photos for a 12 'clock ceremony) what do they do until the ceremony?
8. Is there a bar set up in the Whitehall room and is their a waiter service for drinks while guests are on the patio for the pre reception?
9. Is pre reception food handed out or set up on tables?
10. What is the timeline for photos after the ceremony?
11. What is the timeline for the reception?
12. Does anyone have or know where I can find a map of the grounds of the GF?
13. Will UK CDR's work in the WP and CD players?
Sorry for all the questions!

Thankyou in advance

Hi! I am TOTALLY not trying to be snarky here, but a lot of these are questions your wedding planner should be answering, esp. the bar, the timelines, and how the appetizers are served - this stuff is specific to your wedding, so we may not be able to give you the correct info!

The things I know the answer to are:

1) I believe you can get a traditional shave at any of the salons on property. My husband got a haircut at the one at the Contemporary, and apparently there's a barber there who's been there for 20+ years and everyone says he's great. Surely he would be able to do a straight-razor shave.

If you got to www.relaxedyet.com you'll find info for all the spas at WDW, including prices for manicures and hours of each salon. I got a good one at Perriwig's at the Beach Club.

6) I didn't have my dress re-steamed for the MK shoot, and it looked fine. But it was 100% polyester

12) Do a Google image search on the phrase "Grand Floridian map" - I do it every time I need a map of that resort (or any other WDW resort) and the first 1 or 2 results are perfect.

i'm having a mani at the grand the day before ours.
when is your wedding?

any cds will work in any cd player, if you are taking one from the uk make sure you get a plug adapter.

our timelines are in the BEO, with all the timings etc for the whole day including photos and times for those, even what times the transport is picking us up

I will try and answer some of your questions:

3) Music isn't piped into the White Hall Room. You could have a DJ, an ipod set up or musicians playing. They pipe in the music from the fireworks if you are having a dessert party at the marina patio.

8) The bar is set up on the patio. I am not sure if they keep the bar outside all the time but we will have 4 tables, sweetheart table, kid's table, and DJ and the bar is staying outside. During the pre-reception there will not be a waiter. During dinner I am paying for a cocktail server that will take drink orders and serve drinks.

9) Hors d'oeuvres are being passed. Cheese display will be set up on a table.

You can find a map of the Grand Floridian grounds here:

Hope this helps!
