Ian & Vicky’s Wedding Trip Report Index – December 2014

Hello

This is a very belated Trip Report!

We saved for 2 years for this trip, it was out biggest one yet with our wedding at the start of the holiday, and it was good to have the wedding at the start of the holiday so we could relax for the honeymoon.

We flew on November 31st because it was the cut off for the free Quick Service Dining Plan so only a small charge to upgrade to the standard DDP which we would be using.

We flew from Manchester to Orlando and stayed for 18 days on property at Port Orleans French Quarter, with 1 night in Universals Hard Rock Hotel and 1 night in Bay Lake Tower.

There was 12 of us total who met up to go over there. 4 guests left after 1 week, another 4 guests left after 10 days and 2 guests left after 14 days. Leaving us 4 days on our own.

I'll call in my wife to help me detail the Escape wedding we had at SeaBreeze Point, with our Meal at Yachtsman Steakhouse before the surprise Dessert Party at Epcot. The following day we had our portrait session in Epcot (UK, Germany, Italy & China), then more resort photos at the Boardwalk and Beach Club/Boardwalk Resort.

I am Ian and my wife is Victoria, we stay in Glasgow and both work in a bank, we saved hard and long for this trip and saw it as our "Once in a lifetime" trip
