If everything wasn't already booked for my wedding, I would definitely have been able to fit a Wishes wedding in my budget. At least we'll have our DisneyMoon! 59 days and counting!
I'm having one of the "smaller" weddings. An escape wedding followed by a lunch reception catered by disney. My floral budget is minimal and instead of ordering a custom centerpiece, I'm using one off of disneyflorist.com.

My fiance and I are currently looking at having our ceremony at the Wedding Pavilion and our reception at The Living Seas Salon. We are trying to stay around $15,000. We are still unsure of how many people will come, but we are thinking around 75-100 people. Can I just get some input on if people think this is plausible?
I would cut floral and decor out and I will be doing that on my own.
Also, I've noticed in the thread many people had a "dessert party" several hours after their reception. Is this common? I have never heard of it before.
My fiance and I are looking at having a morning wedding and a brunch/lunch reception and then spending the rest of the day in the parks with those who decide to join us. Is this a good idea? What about the guests that don't buy passes? They will have to leave?
emc1123 said:Questions - when you purchase a bar package, either beer/wine or beer/wine/liquor, is soda and water included, or do you need to purchase packages with both?
I have more people that drink than don't, but I don't want to leave the people who don't drink with nothing.
thanks!
