    Epcot Holiday Decorations

    Hi all, I am reading mixed things online...in most recent years, when have holiday decorations for Christmas-time gone up in the World Showcase? We are planning an 11/13/18 wedding with both ceremony/reception in Epcot. Wondering if we should be including red or green in our wedding colors.

    Crescent Solarium at the BC

    Yay, so fun! I have read in Passporters and on the boards that responses are few and far between until about the 6 month mark. I tend to ask a lot in each email I exchange with the WC and she is great at answering all of my questions. The answers are brief, but help me move forward with our...

    EPCOT Germany v. SBP

    Thank you for sharing how you made your decision for a ADH reception...it really is so helpful hearing all of the pros/cons for the various options. I had not considered those large windows at Ariel's looking out over the pool area...if we use this location, I was considering asking to have our...

    Crescent Solarium at the BC

    Ah, we will have to look into those two. 11/13/18...we hadn't thought of that either. Is it common for couples to choose an event space and switch as the date gets closer if a convention space becomes available?

    Crescent Solarium at the BC

    @lurkyloo Unfortunately, we were told that the Attic is already booked by a convention and that we would be unable to utilize ADH or SBP for a reception due to the same convention....Ariel's is open so far...but it's not our favorite (I really dislike fish...weird, I know). We are going to...

    Crescent Solarium at the BC

    Crescent Solarium at the BC

    Does anyone know if Crescent Solarium (Solarium Gardens) at the Beach Club is a reservable space for a reception? Stumbled upon photos of the space today when searching for a back-up in case we do not get The Attic....trying to figure out if it could be a viable option. Thanks!

    EPCOT Germany v. SBP

    I'll have to look for your PJ! They're so nice in the beginning stages of planning! Ah, transportation always seems so complicated! That is great to consider! Great to hear we are not the only ones who have explored other options and have changed our plans around a bit! So funny! Great to...

    EPCOT Germany v. SBP

    Ah, makes sense...I think I read/heard (quite possibly in your book/podcast) that Epcot rain backups will always be in Epcot...which is good because every location is gorgeous, but we especially like AAR. Thanks for the advice...we will be sure to request and see what happens!

    EPCOT Germany v. SBP

    Thank you, @lurkyloo ! It was definitely a helpful podcast. I have not found very many Germany ceremony trip reports or photos online, so great to have this as a resource! Do you happen to know what the rain back-up location is for Germany?

    EPCOT Germany v. SBP

    Thanks for the insight @drjackal31 ! Do you have a trip report for me to follow? In terms of transportation, are you all paying for a charter/one-way, boat, etc...or walking from Epcot to the Attic? Did you view Germany for a site visit? The clock actually sounds sort of charming...for now...haha!

    EPCOT Germany v. SBP

    Our WC has tasked us to figure out what we can be flexible on prior to our 12-month mark...dates/times, venues for ceremony and reception, etc... We are finding that we are going to have to be less flexible on dates, due to some blackout days for work for both myself and DF....and we want to...

    Wishes Rehearsal Logistics

    For some follow-up, in case anyone is wondering...our WC said that Disney can do a rehearsal the day before the wedding on a federal holiday, with the exceptions of Thanksgiving Day and Christmas.

    Early December wedding - advice

    Looking for some thoughts and advice! We thought that the price increases would price us out of the "mini-wishes" DFTW we were "planning", but after crunching the new numbers in Passporter, it looks like it a Wishes wedding is still in the cards for us! What has changed: We are going from...

    DFTW Price Increases at Walt Disney World

    Hi @lurkyloo -- Listening to your newest episode now and reviewing these pricing changes...For enhancement minimums for Wishes, do you know if the WP counts as a resort location?

    Mini-wishes gone?

    It does look like they removed the break-down of the minimum expenditure for the Catered Event Experience, and potentially changed the pricing structure for Wishes...? I know all prices are subject to change without notice, but once you are working with DFTW (after 16 month consultant call or...
