A little background: I am not the girl who ever dreamed of the big white wedding. My fiance also has no desire to monkey suit it up for our nuptuals. I am in USA and he is in England so any wedding will be a destination for one part of the family or another. So we did the next best thing for us. We both love Disney World as do our respective familys. Our closest friends go almost yearly. We go with them as money allows. I feel inviting people to something fun like Disney would be so much better than the expsense of having a small event at home which essentially will cost about the same for people to attend out of town. There are tons of kids and I do not want people to come and have to feel like they need to dress up and kids are bored. What better is Disney to accomidate the kid in all of us.
The concern: We decided that on our next big trip in 2014 we wanted to invite our immediate family and close friends to come celebrate with us at Disney world during the first week of December. We both know this is a tough time for people to travel and are aware that not everyone will be able to attend. I want to send out save the date cards very early so those who want to attend have plenty of time to decide if they want to come. We can not afford to pay for people to come on vacation with us but would like to offer them the option to join us. We do plan to have a very special dinner at one of the Disney restaurants(Liberty Tree Tavern) with an amazingly exspensive and well worth it cake made by Disney (we will pay for dinner this night of the celebrations) the total head count will be just under 40 people total. 11 of which are kids 17 and under. Sharing Disney with a bunch of kids makes people cringe and all I see is a huge family photo with Mickey (sister thinks I am nuts)
The question: How is this worded? Do's and Don'ts? Am I missing something?
sorry its so long :eek:
My thought was to send out the Save the dates as soon as possible and then feild questions as we get them.
