Hello everyone,
To start, I apologize if this thread is in the wrong area, My issue seems unique and this was a place I thought it would belong.
So me and my Significant other were planning a trip to the great Walt Disney world resort this summer, late June early July to be exact. We planned on staying at the storied Grand Floridian resort. My significant other has always wanted to stay at the grand and for this trip I am asking to get engaged. I thought this was the perfect opportunity. Like many others I’m going through a slight financial hardship and the grand commands a premium price.. I have a very close family friend who actually works for Disney and was able to give me a Friends and Family discount. Unfortunately my family friend is dealing with Somthing and doesn’t know if they will still be working there by the time the trip comes.. so I won’t be able to use it. I had planned everything out around this resort and our experiences including popping the question.. I would just like to know what my options are moving forward... any advice would help..
(What would you do in my situation, have you ever had to reschedule a trip with limited time, etc)
I want to stress the fact I don’t think I deserve anything special.. I was grateful for the discount but it’s my fault for putting all my eggs in 1 basket and getting in over my head.. and at the end of the day it’s just a vacation.. I just wanted this to be special and romantic I guess. I just don’t want to lose all our plans if that means changing things around. I have never done this before. Again, any advice on options would be greatly appreciated. THANK YOU
