Bec & Chris - Wishes Wedding 03/01/11 WP/WHR/SCP - Some extra pics and **COMPLETE**

Wow I'm really enjoying your report. Sounds like you had a great group of people with you to help you celebrate.

Looking forward to more updates:goodvibes
 
Bec, I fell in love with your photos on the Disney Weddings Blog! Can I ask you what kind of flowers you had in your bouquet? I saw that your BEO said ivory and champagne roses, but the photos looked like they were something else.
 
congrats on being featured on the disney wedding blog! you look so beautiful!
I love your bouquet as well!
 
I had no idea we were on the blog! I've just been checking it out. I feel so special! :goodvibes

The next post will be up soon. Wedding Rehearsal day!
 
I left DF fast asleep this morning. I was going with my mum, dad and brother to go see the WP and Francks and drop off stuff for the wedding.

So we caught a bus to MK and then the monorail from there. Monorails are awesome for getting around! Sort of made me wish we were staying at a monorail resort. It was so quick.

We headed over to Francks and found that it was all locked up :sad2: but that didn’t stop me pressing my face up against the glass. I called Jessie, Michelle’s assistant and told her that we had the wedding stuff, and asked her what we should do with it. I knew that the planners worked at Celebration, and not at Francks, but I suppose I thought there’d still be someone there...

She told me to bring it back with me to the rehearsal, and Michelle would grab it from me then.

So we spent some time wandering around the WP. It’s beautiful! Exactly what I’d hoped for, and mum was in love.

We then headed back to the GF and dropped off the stuff with the bell hops so we didn’t have to carry it around all day.

We jumped back on a monorail and headed to Epcot to meet my sister and her BF.

We met up with them near the gates and I insisted on some photopass photos with Spaceship Earth.

Then we came across Stitch, and no lines! So we hogged him for a little while too...

We headed for lunch at Liberty Inn, mainly because dad has celiacs, and I knew that they catered to that there, also because I’d had one of the bbq pulled pork sandwiches there the other day and they were nummies! :lovestruc

I’d been trying to send texts to DF all day, letting him know what we were doing and what the plan was for that afternoon, but hadn’t heard anything back from him. I then got a phone call from some random number, which happened to be him, explaining that his phone had stopped working. Turns out it’s not water proof... :headache:

So I agreed to come back to the resort and meet him there, and we could go to the rehearsal from there.

On the way out of Epcot I got another text from Jess my BM saying that she was in Epcot too, and wanting to know how to get to the GF from epcot I knew it was easy, but after the previous night :rolleyes1 I told her I’d meet up with her in Epcot, and we’d go back to my resort and go as a group.

So we did that.

I know other people have pics of the rehearsal, but I don’t seem to... Any hoo, this is when I met Michelle, and she’s so lovely! We also met Rev. Jack, who is also so lovely!

I’m so glad we had both of them to help us through the wedding day. They ran through everything at the rehearsal, and made it all sound so simple. Which of course it was, but we didn’t know that until then...

I then led everyone on a bit of a wild goose chase trying to find the Whitehall Room and Sago Cay Point :lmao:. We eventually found the WHR, but couldn’t go in because they were setting it up for some function. We also walked through SCP several times, but for some reason I thought it would be on... You know... A point... :confused3 However if you haven’t been there, it’s just sort of to the side of the pathway...

We then headed back to the lobby and waited for taxis to come take us back to the resort. While there we all fell in love with Richard. He’s so cute! Mum even followed him around for a while trying to take sneaky photos of him.

We were going to have a relaxed “Rehearsal Dinner” at the River Roost lounge. It ended up being very relaxed, with half of us inside, and the other half outside...

We got one of each of the appetizers and just noshed the rest of the day away.

Once again I called it an early night – big day tomorrow don’t you know!?!

DF was spending the night in his mum and step dad’s room, who had just moved into POR, just a couple of doors down, and my mum was going to spend the night with me. Between my dad and my brother’s snoring she hadn’t been getting very good night’s sleep, and she was determined to have one the night before the wedding.

Before she got there, I spent a good half an hour soaking in the bath tub. Very relaxing... :cloud9:

Other then DFs phone telling us it was going flat, and none of the buttons working so the only way we could turn it off was by taking the battery out. We did have a very restful night.

Next up - WEDDING DAY!! :bride:
 
That stinks about DF's (er, DH'S!!!) phone. That is definitely something I can foresee Bobby doing. :sad2: So glad you had an early and restful night before your big day, I cant wait to read more!! :surfweb:

I've been trying to dig up my most recent BEO, but I've filed it somewhere really safe! :laughing:

It was a silk bouquet made up of ivory peonies, pink rose buds and green lily grasses. It was also on the BM size, not the bride size and it was plenty big enough - for a savings of around $200 you'd be mad to get the bride size!

Wow! I had no idea it was silk ... that's really nice quality! :thumbsup2 Was it from Disney floral?
 
My photos came from Misty today, they're amazing. However the disk marked reception is blank :sad1: So I've emailed Misty for another copy. Man I can't wait to get the rest of these pics!!! :headache:
 
I've decided to enter my photos in the Aussie Mag Bride To Be's Bride of the Year comp. I'd be happy enough just to have my pics in the magazine, but if we win Bride of the Year we get a free holiday to Vanuatu! :lovestruc

So I need to enter 5 pics. 1 must be a head shot of the bride, 1 must be a full length pic of the bride and 1 must be a pic of the bride and groom, the other 2 are my own choice.

So here's where I'm stuck, I love all of Misty's photos, so choosing just 5 is pretty hard!

So I'm going to post my short list of pics and find out what everyone suggests! :thumbsup2
