Pack a little bit of everything - remember, you can do laundry if you need to!
I went last month (October 8-17). The first week, we had record high temps (92 to 96 each day!) so I packed mostly shorts, sleeveless tops, and sandals. At the end of the trip, the temperature swung down 30 degrees! I didn't have enough warm clothes (what I wouldn't have given for a pair of long socks!) but didn't want to pay the $$ for expensive WDW clothes at the end of my trip. It was also very windy during the time that it was cold, so it felt even colder!!
So, I recommend packing a variety of things, including gloves, hat, and warm jackets for everyone. You might not need them at all, but you'll be sorry if you have to buy that stuff at WDW if you need them! That could get very expensive.
PS - check out Accuweather's "Hour by Hour" forecast right before you go. It helps to get an idea of how cold it will be early in the morning or late in the evening.
