Kcampbell: I know this is a random question, but I noticed you are from Naples. How far of a drive is Naples from WDW? I'm asking because my parents live there and were complaining that WDW is going to be an inconvenient drive for their friends-she's been trying to con me into a wedding in Naples & I am standing my ground and saying no!![]()
OMG that's kinda funny they think it's far! It takes roughly 3 hours from Naples (sometimes less depending on traffic and how much of a lead-foot one has). I mean, we make day trips to Orlando b/c it's such an easy drive so if Disney is in your heart- don't let your mom use travel as a reason not to have your WDW wedding.
And just so you know- about 1/2 our guests made the trip from SW Florida (the rest from all over the US) and no one complained once about the trip!
We live in Ft Myers which is about 30 min north of Naples. We were married in December too on the 5th and the family from Ft Myers all made it.
We had a winter wedding but we did orange and royal blue! One of our good friends used wine and white and it was a very striking combination.
Dawn's colors kicked butt! I LOVED them!

Our SIL lives in Boynton on the east coast. BIL came up for the rehearsal dinner the night before and she was going to drive up seperately for the wedding because she had a big clinical exam. She ended missing the wedding but still made the drive and made it in time for the dinner at V&A.
The people who matter and who want to be there will, no matter what.
Thank you!!!!! We were very happy!
I am having a winter wedding too. We picked out sapphire blue (my engagment ring has sapphires in it). We're also going to use silvers and whites. As for flowers, I'm still trying to find a good color for my bridesmaids-to go with their dresses, which are the sapphire blue. I'm not a HUGE fan of pink.
I loooove jewel tones. I think flowers in a beautiful ruby or jewel plum type color would be stunning.
