Wishes Dessert Party Question?

[DisneyDreamingInMI]

Thanks to the Wishes Dessert Party reservation thread, I was able to get a reservation for the Dessert Party on 2/3!!! On that night Wishes starts at 8 pm. Can someone tell me what time the party starts and what time we should start lining up? FWIW I chose 7 pm when making our reservation online.

Thanks so much!

The party starts 1 hour before Wishes begins. They generally let people in about 5-15 minutes early, and a line has been known to form to enter about a 1/2 hr before that.
Your tables are already preassigned, so it's not a first come first get the best table type of situation.

What do you mean pre-assigned?

When you arrive, all of the tables will already have a table with your name labled on it. We don't choose the table we will sit at, and they don't move the nametags from one place to another.

Is there an approximate # of seats or tables sold for each Dessert Party? When I booked my ADR for 12/24, I reserved a 9pm for 4 and was told that we were the 24th table reserved.

I was told by a CM that the party is limited to 200 people.

There are an average of about 35 tables, and as mentioned 210 was the max i was told by a CM...so between 200-210 people

Do people from the Dis Boards ever get together at the parties and meet each other?

I have seen people making arrangements to get together. This thread here shows who's going the same night you are. I still have to update due to todays opening of the next 180 days. Actually, beginning that now!
