When I received an email from Angela Bachelor from the Buena Vista Palace that we needed to meet on the nitty gritty details about upcoming nuptials/reception I had NO idea how in depth we would get. Talk about setting your vision in motion as if it was "go time" tomorrow! Susan Southerland, our wedding planner who has planned many weddings that this venue was by our side with questions and suggestions to help us along. Here is a timeline of our Saturday June 21st meeting. 11.30 am we greeted Susan at the Watercress Cafe for a lite snack before we enter, "The Meeting." Roughly a quarter til we step into Angela's office and notice that she has a long day ahead of her with not only us but 2 receptions later that afternoon. We kicked off the day with the actual ceremony which will be at the gazebo under the giant oak trees on the lake. How many guests are invited? How many will actually show? Then how many will be late are all things that had to be considered. Then the weather will also have to be factored in in the event of inclement weather. 12.06p I notice Dawn getting teary eyed, flushed pale, perspiring heavily. I ask her if she's okay and she claims she's getting light-headed and is about to pass out. We take a brief break to make sure the bride to be will be okay.  Four minutes later Dawn explains that she just had a sense of excitement and it overcame her. Quarter after twelve we were back on track working the fine details about the cocktail hour setup and decor. We moved on to the actual reception setup and decor round tables or square? What kind of linens and seat covers do we like? Where do we place the cake? The Dance floor? Meanwhile, Angela is setting up the room with her computer program on how it will look. By this point it's about 12.48p and we select our menu from appetizers, entrees, and bar. How long do we keep the bar open what liquour do we prefer, premium or call? Chicken or beef for our guests, but what about the vegetarians? So many questions and things to consider!!  Arrgghhhhhhh! I need to go to the mens room. I slide back into the meeting already in progress around 1.24p I thought I was safe and it was wrapping up. Wrong! Now we had to decide rehearsal dinner which will be at Twenty Seven overlooking Disney. What time would it begin, the menu, open/cash bar?? We ended up finishing up around 1.55p and the wheels are set in motion. Dawn and I feel so comfortable knowing that their is a timeline ready for our vendors to come in and set our vision. Next up on our list is meeting with Write and Style to select our invitations.
