OMG! I did Disney on My honeymoon! There are Couples' massages at the grand floridian!

We stayed at the Wilderness lodge, and we had balloons, chocolate, and a signed photo of mickey and Minnie waiting for us when we got there! We also rented a driver to take us to and from the airport.. .which was VERY NICE... he was waiting at the airport with our names on a card!

The Contempory is the BEST! The Rooms are huge, and you have to monorail RIGHT there (and you can WALK to the MK if you want)! Any of the Bay Lake resorts are awesome! There is also the California grill on the top floor... VERY GOOD FOOD!

There are Awesome Tours you can take as well. Birnbaum's is the best disney book out there for planning (at least that I've found) http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/ASIN/0 ... 01-0551526 WELL WORTH IT

I do not know if they still do this, or how to go about arranging it, but at the Living Seas, we used to take signs down to the Coral Reef restaurant windows for special occasions.

I proposed 8 times through the windows on behalf of other people (8 yes's). I also took down birthday and anniversary signs.

Regards,
Aaron

hey SeasDiver, who would I have to talk to about setting something like that up? Where do I have to go? What would I need to supply?

Flatland,

As I stated in my post, I do not know how the arrangements were made. You may want to try calling the Coral Reef Restaurant.

I know that you will need a priority seating reservation. The signs could be made by Disney or provided by you (had both occur while I was there). I assume that there may also be a charge, but again, I never was on that side of things so my knowledge is limited.

Regards,
Aaron

SO TRUE! My Hubby (as mentioned in another thread) isn't a disney freak.. like me.. SO I usually go with my fam. (My Fam (dad & step mom, Aunts, Uncles and cousins) are going Dec 1st! I may go!... Trying to twist my sis's arm to go with me... and stay at the polynesian.. the more the merrier!)

Back on the honeymoon thread... It's well worth it to get the"Magic your way premium" or "Platinum" option when booking to stay on Disney property on your honeymoon. There's the little boats you can take out in Bay lake, as well as parasailing, waterskiing, and alligator slalom (just kidding...hehehe) I think, you can also swim w/ the dolphins through a the living seas (you may want to call WAY in advance) There is also the Richard Petty Driving experience (it could be fun!) OH! And don't forget to get a meal at the Whispering Canyons Cafe at the Wilderness lodge (you can take a bus there or a boat from the MK, or the contempory (they'll make you dance if they find out you were just married... hehe .. FUN!) Don't forget the waterparks either... (Blizzard beach has better slides than Typhoon lagoon.. although you can snorkel at T.L.) WAYYYYYY TOOO MUCH FUN!

That was a lot of fun, and pretty romantic.

I think there are a couple of versions too. A semi-private one (where each passenger pays something like $150) but that one would have you in a boat with strangers. I also believe there is a private one where you basically rent the whole boat. Not sure what the price of that one is but you can be pretty sure it's expensive!

Even if they are I would never recommend that on anyone, especially those seeking romance. I would say just about any in-park restaurant with the exception of a few at Epcot, like the Reef and maybe the French place etc., are very unromantic, with a lot of noise and casually dressed sweaty people

Plus Tony's food is pretty bad imo. The only good part of my last meal there was the bread with that tomato pesto sauce, that was awesome, everything else was decent to just plain bad.

The lagoon boat cruise during Illuminations is a great idea. Just be wary of the wind direction. The display creates a lot of smoke which can sometimes obscure your view of the fireworks.

My suggestion is for them to tell everyone (Castmembers) that they are on their honeymoon. My wife and I received alot of freebies from the resort it self and from all of the restaurants. ie. Cinderella's round table gave us glass flutes.
