Unique Honeymoon?

[TrueEeyore]

What are some things I can plan for me and my fiance to do on our honeymoon that would be different? I want to do the Keys to the Kingdom tour, and maybe a character breakfast. I'm really really hoping to stay in the Contemporary and have a MK view. Keep your fingers crossed on that one!
What are some things to do that would be nice on a honeymoon? We both LOVE Disney, but I want this time to be different and special. Any tips?

Bump! I'd like to know too. We are Disney-mooning in December

ooh, let's see...

segway tour in epcot
massages at any of the spa resorts
wishes or illuminations cruise
dinner or breakfast for two on your balcony via room service
request a king sized bed for sure!
afternoon tea at the grand floridian
fishing excursion or round of golf if that's something you/he'd enjoy
rent water mice or pontoon boat
bicycle built for two
horse and carriage ride (either at fort wilderness or port orleans riverside)

i'm sure others will have more ideas

Make sure to mention that it is your honeymoon when you do ADR's. If we did it over again we'd definitely still do Cindy's for dinner (they gave us wine glasses with the castle on them as a gift) and also the Garden Grill in the Land at EPCOT. They brought us cake and had us say "I do" and then shove cake in eachothers face.

Congrats!

I'd recommend looking at "The Luxury Guide to Walt Disney World" (see it here):

http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&isbn=0762739576&itm=1

It doesn't get as much mention as Passporter or Unofficial Guide (which are also really good books, I really like both of them). Assuming you might want to splurge on your honeymoon, it has great reviews of all the best restaurants, acommodations, activities, etc. Rather than brief blurbs of all the stuff, it goes in depth on the stuff it covers- for example, all the diversions and activities that are available at each resort, and the best menu items to try at all the nice restaurants.

If the books (or other sources) give you ideas of fun things to try, check out allears.net- people use Allears for menus and pictures, but it also has reviews for many of the special tours and other activities.

And DisneyHoneyMoon- I love your sig, where's it from? The one that's permanently ingrained in my head is from The Matterhorn: "Remain seated please. Permanacer sentados por favor."

As for massages- I haven't been fortunate enough to try them yet, but the spas at GF and SSR both have couples' massages. In one (SSR, I think) one of you gets a massage while the other gets a hydrotherapy bath. At the other, the masseuse actually teaches you how to give massages to each other!

At many of the resorts, having a king size bed means having an accessible bedroom. Some people really don't like the accessible bedrooms- personally, DW and I stayed in an accessible room at WL for our honeymoon, and we LOVED it! Not only did we get a king-size bed, but we got a huge walk-in shower instead of a small bath/shower combo. Obviously, disabled people have priority access to the accessible rooms, but there are ususally plenty of them. I'd look for pictures if you're not sure about it, but an accessible room can be a great way to get the feeling of a suite without the extra expense.

Parasailing (tandem if possible)

Thanks! It's from the Monorail at WDW. It's available in MP3 format too if you google it.

The carriage ride through Fort Wilderness is a lot of fun. You get a little bottle of champagne and its really a romantic experience. We did a couples massage on the cruise line and it was amazing; I imagine it would be very similar at the resorts.

Well, if I can get enough money, I'm planning on a 4 day Disney Cruise. My fiance knows nothing about it! He's gonna think its time to go home and we're really going to the ship! I can't wait to see his reaction!

Thanks everyone for your great suggestions!

It's worth it! We booked the 3 day land/4 day cruise and added an extra day at the parks. We stayed at the Poly with castle view and had a semi-private veranda on the cruise. We booked way ahead of time and saved almost 1600.00 for doing so. We also booked the romance package which included the carriage ride and the massage among other things.

Go for it!!!! It was sooo perfect.
