Looks awesome! Isn't it nice to get all the ones you had hoped?

Have a lovely honeymoon!

[TysMomTink]

Looks great. Congrats on your upcoming marriage! Have a great honeymoon!!

[Strmchsr]

Looks like a great line-up and we'll be arriving on the same day!

[brivers222]

well hey if you are going to be there, i know the weather will cooperate, eh? haha

and thanks everyone, i am so excited now


actually in my haste this morning (and the swtich between Poly to BWI) i missed on of the meal allotments... So on Day 4 I added Donalds Breakfastasaurous for us!

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding and honeymoon...I hope it goes as well as your ADRs did! You have some great choices. Yachtsman was one of our favorites and Narcossee's is my favorite. On a side note, when we went to Yachtsman, we walked to the Yacht Club from Epcot and came across a Photopass Photographer outside of Stormalong Bay on the main walk. It was dark with beautiful lights and there was no one else stopping or really around so we stopped for a pic and it turned out to be great. It had the lighthouse and water as the background with several poses. Great memory of a great night and meal!

If you really want LeCellier, try calling the 407-WDW-DINE number........That is what I had to do for my latest trip........Availability online and calling in don't always match up.....

I tried that, too, but for this December trip the CM told me that they are holding a LOT of Le Cellier and other's (like Rose & Crown) until they release the CP packages. I've never had a hard time getting R&C, but I can't get a single time for my Dec 10-16 trip and that's why.

[MississippiDisneyFreak]

Your ADRs look great, now I am getting nervous about getting Lecellier......

[Strmchsr]

Your ADRs look great, now I am getting nervous about getting Lecellier......

I'd say there's about a 99% chance you will not be able to get Le Cellier on your 180 day window. BUT, if you keep trying once they release all of the blocks for the CP packages you might get lucky and be able to get it then.

[brivers222]

I have this problem with constantly tweeking the dining reservations until i get the perfect match... so I ended up with a different order and actually haven't found a place to fit Le Cellier in (hows that for trying to set up a possibility of getting it... when you don't want it is when it happens haha)

I promise i won't make another large posting with dinning events like this again. I am 100% content with my choices

(L) Beaches and Cream <-- hopefully table is available for a short wait around 2pm-ish
(D) Yachtsman Steakhouse <-- Staying near boardwalk first night

Day 2:
(L) Whispering Canyon
(D) Liberty Tree Tavern <-- Before MVMCP #1

Day 3: (our 1 month wedding anniversary date)

Day 4:
(D) Boma <-- Before MVMCP #2

Day 5:
(B) CRT <-- wanted to see the morning opening ceremony and this is as good excuse as any to get my fiancee out of bed early

I was a little sad that i couldn't get Le Cellier (called the dining # Debbie.... they are booked out) but according to strmchsr i can understand why.

And yeah rose and crown was booked too... when do they tend to release the blocks of CP packages? are we talking last minute ressies?

[Strmchsr]

when do they tend to release the blocks of CP packages? are we talking last minute ressies?

Generally it's late August or early September when they release those. Maybe since they released the 2012 packages (which usually come out early August) about 6 weeks early they'll release the CP packages early too.

[MinnieMommie]

Wonderful planning! You have done such a nice job of combining dining and Wishes and Mickey's Christmas Party. I am one day away from my 180 mark and still unsure about all our selections! Hats off to you, Your selections look great!

[brivers222]

well my OCD with reservations paid off... I was able to find a 4:15pm ressie for Le Cellier!!! and it fits perfectly in my ADRs because its right before MVMCP!!!

either way... never been to LeCellier after 4 trips of trying!!!!

[MississippiDisneyFreak]

Congratulations...we loved Lecellier on our last visit.....not sure how it is with the 2 credits and menu change but I hope you love it....

[brivers222]

one of my coworkers went there 2 weeks ago and he said the food tastes even better than it did before... he wasn't on the dining plan so he was just talking about tastes from previous dinners there. (somehow he has been there over 7 times on his last several trips)

So that is a plus

[darthmacho]
