Tips for visiting during Star Wars Weekend

[debmich]

My family (myself/husband, 3 grown children and 2 spouses) will be going to WDW on the first Star War Weekend of 2015. We are not going because it is Star Wars weekend, but because it was the only weekend we could all get together. We have thought about going to MK early and trying to ride as many rides as possible without Fastpass+ and then going to HWS in the afternoon/evening to use our Fastpass+ for the day. Then on Sunday we would be at HWS early for the parade of characters and to wrap up anything we want to do there and then head to another park for the remainder of that day. Comments from those that might have experiences with these weekends?
