Hello everyone! This is my first Pre-Trip Report (which will hopefully segue nicely into my first trip report) so bear with me while I figure everything out. The title for this PTR comes from something my fiance and I say to each other, "I love you to the moon and back," but with a Disney twist.
My fiance (soon to be husband!) and I will be heading to Walt Disney Word for our Honeymoon, and I hope to chronicle our planning process (and other random life occurrences) over the course of the next several months! We are getting married May 25, 2015; however, since we prefer to go to Orlando during the slower season and have the schedule flexibility to do so, we're waiting until mid-September 2015 to go on our Disneymoon.
Without further ado, let's meet the (short) cast of characters:
That's me, Katie, a self-proclaimed dork with a penchant for all things Disney. I currently live in North Florida (only 3.5 hours from WDW!) and work in the early education field as a pre-school director. As you might imagine my job keeps me on my toes and makes sure I stay busy. My favorite character is Stitch (the amount of Stitch merchandise in our house is bordering on unhealthy), and my favorite WDW park is Hollywood Studios. I am the planner of the family and like to have everything arranged ahead of time.
That's David, my fiance and soon-to-be husband, who tries much harder than me to hide his dorky side (though I'm not sure you can tell by this picture ). He's currently going to school to get his PhD in Ecology & Evolution and also works as a teaching assistant. His favorite Disney character is Yoda , and, being a thrill junkie and Harry Potter nerd, actually prefers Universal Studios Islands of Adventures to WDW. He is much more laid back and go with the flow and, therefore, has left all the planning in my hands for our Disneymoon.
Thank you for reading and I hope you'll find this PTR fun & interesting!
