We got our APs and signed contract the other day!
I was worried at first because Celestes assistant told me that it was sent certified mail and someone would need to sign for it. DF and I both work during the day so no one would be home and I was afraid I would miss it. Luckily it came on a Saturday and we got it with no problems
.
We are scheduled to go down to Disney for our planning session on April 4th
. Im so excited to go! Unfortunately we wont be able to stay very long
, just a weekend trip. We were originally going to activate our new APs when we go down for the PS, but we would only be there for 2 days. After the PS we wont be going back to Disney again till October for the wedding. We would be wasting 6 months worth of valuable AP time for the months in between April and October. We still have some regular park day tickets left over from previous trips that well use and just activate the APs when we go down for the wedding in October.
Wedding Cake
Celeste sent me the information with all the different types of wedding cakes that they have. There are so many that I like! But the one that I like the most is the Mickey Wave Cake.
Its simple, pretty , and goes with my hidden Mickey theme. I also love the white chocolate castle. I was thinking of maybe changing the ribbon they have around the bottom of the cake to a purple ribbon.
I dont think we will be bringing home the anniversary layer home because we will still be in Disney for another 12 days after the wedding. Well probably just take it back to the room and snack on it. I definitely want to try to take the chocolate castle home though. I think I read somewhere that they will ship it to your home for $45 for the small castle and $75 for the larger castle.
After looking at the cake flavor list, Ive decided to go with these flavors: almond cake with amaretto mousse, red velvet cake with cream cheese filling, and yellow cake with Bavarian cream & fresh strawberries. Im not sure which layer will have which yet, but I would like each guest to have 2 slices of cake (different flavors). Im planning to taste these cake flavors during my PS so based on how that goes, the flavors may or may not change.
This is how I want our cake table to look, except with maybe a lavender color and silver runners.
I believe this picture came from Carries PJ (Thanks Carrie, I hope you dont mind
). I love the way it looks, very simple not too much going on. I might have the bridesmaids put their flowers on the table, but Im not sure yet.
I bought this garter set on ebay a few months ago. I dont know if you can see it but one of the garters has Cinderellas coach on it and the other has the glass slipper. I love them! The lady who made them was super nice and customized one for me in purple. We wont be doing a garter toss, but I thought it would be fun to wear them anyway.
I also bought these on ebay and Im going to iron them on to tank tops for the bridesmaids. I saw a few other dis brides do this and thought it was really cute. Well probably wear them during the rehearsal and the welcome dinner. Im going to wear the Just Married one the day after the wedding.
Thats all I have for today. I hope everyone has a Happy New Year!!!
