I am the most low key future bride out there, I think, but I have a serious budget question - does anyone ever just go with the basic Escape Wedding package? I want to get married on a weekday in July or August (he knows he has to pop the question soon for us to make it, lol), and other than a rehearsal dinner (maybe Luau?) and an Illuminations Dessert Party, I don't want any extras. Can that be done, or do I have to spend a minimum amount?
I hate to sound dumb, especially since I am so experienced with other aspects of WDW (passholder for 10+ years, long-time poster on other boards, etc). But everything I read seems to assume people already know the basics. I am totally clueless!
Yes, you can totally do that, and many people do. I think it's just that we uber-planners all seem to find our way to this board, which makes it seem like everyone having a DFTW is customizing the heck out of it.
The only way you'd be required to meet a minimum expenditure beyond the price of the package is if you held your event on a Saturday or a Sunday. However, since you're planning to add a dessert party, you shouldn't have much trouble meeting that $8,000 minimum even if you do have a weekend event.
