Hi all,
So....this big old bunch of crazy is looking like it might be an option for me!
It sounds so amazing until you actually call Disney and then its like
Im just wondering has any one else from the UK or Ireland had a Disney wedding? If so did you just feel like another number as I did on that call? What was your experience like planning from so far away with a time difference?
I was hoping to do an escape wedding but have a planning meeting with the coordinator whilst visiting at Christmas and the guy on the other end of the phone was almost laughing at me...."your package wouldn't cover that"......I said nothing but inside I was screaming!!!
Then I asked if the could even pencil in a date for me for the wedding next year as we are international and as we clearly have a limited time frame....computer says no, they can only book it 10 months from the event, but the guy did mention something about 11months out but I was so annoyed and disgruntled I totally missed what he said! I totally understand that they cant book the date in advance until the 10 month mark but I have read that other people have "penciled in their date" at 11 months out?
We are paying 7000 euro (before flights) to stay at SSR for two weeks next June on top of the cost to stay at christmas in pop century plus the cost of the wedding which alone is looking at about 10000 dollars not even mentioning our family paying for rooms/tickets etc........and they cant allow me have a meeting with a wedding coordinator to taste some cake and look at some flowers
Anyway, very sorry for the rant, but im rather fed up when it should be the happiest time of my life!
Any experiences would be so so super helpful!!
