World of color dessert party?!

[cinder-ellah]

I just booked for mid-August for our family group of 10 ! We're so excited!!!

Will it be difficult for kids to see if they are in the low chairs ? With kids should we try for the taller chairs ?

Thanks for all the reviews here.

We just did the late show on Friday. There were maybe 20 people there. We got a low table right behind the preferred dining circle. There was someone that had their kids on their shoulders, but they ended up moving so the view was perfect. A high top would make that not matter though I think.

Did they serve you quickly ?
Did you feel like you had time to enjoy your desserts / drinks and not feel rushed ?
What time did you line up ?

Sorry for all the questions ....... I'm the designated planner for our group of 10 and just trying to make sure I don't forget anything.
Thanks

I totally understand because I just did all the planning for our group of 10 (which wasn't supposed to happen...)

We got there about 9:30, and were the 4th group. It was a bit of chaos letting the first show clear out so we just waited off to the side. We waited in line about 15 minutes-it sounded like it was taking them a little longer to clear tables and reset them. I don't think they had all the kinks worked out for a second show. The first two groups had to try and follow all the blue fast pass people down. The hostess was not expecting that.

We were spaced out so we got down there, were immediately seated. The server brought the bread basket and took our drink order. Then she brought drinks and the desserts. We had around 15 minutes before the show started. We were good with that and we also charged with our server and she took our picture in front of the fun wheel. She came back twice more for more drinks and a last call on anything just before the show. We ate around half of our stuff then took the rest to our hotel.

Yikes ! We're going to the first show, so hopefully it won't be so chaotic.
Did they provide "to go" containers ?
Hopefully you had a good time

They provided us with boxes. Our server let us know about that when she came around for last call. After the show ended we were able to sit a little while people cleared out and we packed our desserts

The reset issue I think is why they stopped having it for the second show. Too much work for such a short time.

I'm sorry if this has already been asked and I missed it but, are the alcoholic drinks limited to one per person?

We were offered 2 per person.

I got two if the blue drink. The lady sitting in front of me got at least 3 sparking beverage.

We did this last Thursday and it was wonderful! My husband said, "I don't want to know how much this cost me, but it was worth it."

We lined up at 8:15 and were almost the last in line. It appeared that they had the tables pre-assigned, but maybe that's just because we were near the end and had one of the last remaining tables. It was a great high one, though, and the view couldn't have been better.

We were told two alcoholic drinks per adult, but we don't drink alcohol, so that didn't matter. I do wish they had more soft drinks available. We were offered only alcohol or a Shirley Temple. I did ask for and receive water. It was a small bottle, but she brought me a second. The person serving us, though, was not a regular waiter. She said she was going to get us started to help our waiter out, but then she took over and we never saw him.

The desserts and cheeses were delicious. We were given boxes for leftovers, and we weren't rushed to leave the area, so we had plenty of time to pack up.

It's way more money than we typically pay for an experience, but I'd say it was well worth it!

We decided to do a semi-last minute trip in September and even though this is supposed to be a budget trip (saving the $$$ for a big blow out trip next March for my 45th!) but I have already booked this as our one splurge!

One question and sorry if this has already been answered but if we upgrade our hoppers to APs while we are there, is there an AP discount on this and can we get it applied after I have already pre paid?

Thanks!

There is no AP or any other discount.

 

[Aladora]

Well, poop. Thanks!

I just went to look at availability for our dates in September and it's saying nothing available! Are they really selling out already?

I think it is just too far out. Try closer to 30 days out.

Be wary of getting seated on the edges of the viewing area. We attended the first showing last Friday, and were seated at a high top table in the second row on the left side. Four more tables were set up on our side after we were seated, all were high tops, and one was in front of the left side of our table. I didn't realize until the show started that 1/3 of my view was blocked. I had to ask the gentleman in front of me to move (which caused both of us to miss the first 5 min. of the show). Luckily, he was nice enough to move his chair behind his toddler son's so we could all see.

I just called and got in no problem. The website must be glitchy; it says there's no availability.

Also I asked about PTN and she said the post-Labor Day entertainment schedule hasn't been released yet. She said it's usually out by now but they must still be working on it, so any day now, and to keep checking back.

Not sure what dates you are looking for, but I was looking for 9/16 and wasn't seeing it. I was looking just in the dining reservation section. Someone on here suggested you had to go into WOC dessert party and I did that and was able to book that way.

I called and got in just fine. Thanks!
