December Wedding in Disney

We are ‘thinking’ about attending my niece’s wedding in December — which will be in Orlando.  So, I called Disney just to see if they even had any rooms available still.  Surprisingly, there are still plenty of options for reservations under the FREE Dining plan promotion for the week of December 14th.  I was shocked.  I’m wondering if the economy is having a serious affect on Disney’s business.

I wanted something really cheap in case we go to the wedding.  I thought staying off-site might be best and less expensive.  But with the free dining I think staying at one of the value resorts will be even less expensive.  Of course, our decision to go really depends a lot on the economy.   If things don’t improve soon there is no way we’ll spend money to go to this wedding.  I fear we’ll need the money for more urgent things than a few days at Disney.

A Dream Wedding

My 12 year old daughter loves to dream about her future wedding. I was never like that as a girl so it’s all very new to me. She’s convinced she is going to have a Fairy Tale Disney wedding during their 50th anniversary (which is in about 14 years!). She was around 2 years old when she experienced the 25th anniversary at Disney World — and she hopes that the castle will be transformed into the big pink birthday cake castle as it was then. She has nearly everything picked out — even the future groom (but he doesn’t know that yet!)
