Hello,
I have been a long-time Disney fan, but I don't get to visit Disney World very frequently, so my familiarity with restaurants around Orlando is limited. As such, I would very much appreciate the vast knowledge and experience everyone on this board possesses to help with two very special meals.
For background, my Fiance and I have decided upon a destination wedding in December of this year, and have asked our immediate family to join us. We live in New Mexico, and around 16 of us will be traveling to Orlando in mid-December for an intimate ceremony in Orlando, followed by several days in the parks with everyone, then about half of the attendees will join us on a four-day cruise aboard the Dream. Then, my Fiance and I will spend eight days alone in and around Disney World to enjoy each other and the magic provided by Disney.
My questions for all of you regard finding restaurants for two very important and special meals. One would be for dinner the night of our wedding (immediately following the ceremony, so after 5 PM), and would need to accommodate 16-20 people, including four children between 1 and 9 years old. The second would be the love of my life and I for Christmas dinner.
The group meal will be in mid-December, and because we're not people of great means, will need to be moderately priced, yet we would like to have a special time to remember. Where would you take the people you love for the dinner following your wedding, if taking out a second mortgage on your home were not an option?
We have decided that Christmas dinner will be our special meal together, so the sky is the limit. Quiet, intimate, romantic, memorable atmosphere, great service and spectacular food, are all on our wish list. If there were one place in the Orland area, no matter the price or dress requirements, where would you go with that special person in your life? A meal you will never forget!
Both meals can be on or off property, but should be within a reasonable drive of I-4 and Hwy 192, say 30-45 minutes.
We're concerned about reservations that time of year, so we're trying to come up with a short list of possibilities so we can begin our attempts to lock down reservations.
We both have been online looking for restaurants, but we're stumped.
I'm looking for any help all of you can provide that will assist us in making this special time in our lives even better.
Thank you so much for your assistance, and my sincerest apologies for the long, long post.
Joe and Colleen
