Ok.....so here's our PTR.
Wedding date is September 21st in our town of North Attleboro, MA, followed by a reception at the Johnson&Wales Inn in Seekonk, MA.
Our disneymoon was booked through AAA last November 17th. (Disneymoon dates 9/22-9/30) Unofficially, free dining has been announced for the month of September. Our TA has already told me if WDW offers Free Dining for our time there, she'll redo our reservation to take advantage of the Free Dining, which will save us about $900! 9 days/8 nights in one of the Honeymoon Suites (Club Level) at the Wilderness Lodge. Flights were booked in February; Southwest on the way down; JetBlue on the way home (just the way the schedules and prices worked out!).
Of the 9 days, 5 of them will be park days. One of our non-park days will be a day trip to the Kennedy Space Center. At WDW itself, the biggest event we have booked is dinner at Victoria&Alberts for Maria's birthday (how many people can say they were at WDW for their honeymoon AND their birthday?)!
Wedding plans are moving along; the next big expense will be our wedding rings. Maria wants 2-tone gold rings. I don't mind 2-tone, but I don't need anything overly fancy or extravagant either. When all is said and done, we expect to come out below average regarding the cost of the average wedding and honeymoon.
And because the US Army gave me great training as a logistician, I'm keeping track of the expenses on an Excel spreadsheet, as well as an Excel spreadsheet for each day (DisneyDiva.com gets the credit for this one!).
Anyone else Disneymooning at the same time we are?
