The "first look"

[mi*vida*loca]

If eloping for a memories package what do you do about your DF not seeing you until the right moment.

It would be us and my two kids. No one else will be in WDW so no chance for him to go to another room to get dressed. Unless we rent a one bedroom DVC for part of the trip for a split stay.

I was thinking him and my son can get ready and go hang out somewhere in the resort while me and DD get ready. But they could be hanging out and waiting for two hours. It just seems like a bit much.

Hi!
Memories bride here as well

What time is your ceremony? Where are you staying?

Nothing is booked yet but the plan is a 1 pm ceremony and staying at the BC.

this is what i would do you can rent a second room for one night or whatever your budget allows/seems reasonable. honestly, if any pictures are happening (even just for your two guys), usually pics go on pre-ceremony etc.. they can go have breakfast somewhere (not necessarily fancy or anything) and get dressed. thats 2 hours right there! if not seeing each other before is important, i would budget for a second room for one night or (if DVC) have the split room and not be seen.

I'm thinking them get ready and go have breakfast is a good idea. Then once Dd and I are ready we can meet and do some pics and head out for the ceremony.

I'm not too worried about him seeing me the day of but I just didn't want him there while I'm getting ready. First because I want to be done up once he sees me and because I think it'll be chaos with hair and makeup and dress steamers plus them two and us. Add in maybe a photographer.

Although booking a room for one night isn't a bad idea. Once the date gets closer I will decide on this.

Thanks!

That's what we are doing for our vow renewal - I plan on kicking him mad the boys out when the hair/makeup lady arrive!

Yes kicking them out sounds like the best option. I'm sure they won't mind. )
