Early May is beautiful there! Lower crowds, kids are all back in school after April spring breaks, and the weather hasn't gotten too hot. Congratulations!

You just need to go check in at the Magical Express desk to get on the bus when you're ready to head to Disneyworld. As long as you have a valid Disney resort reservation with a check-in that day, you are fine! No need to make up a flight. Just make sure you grab your own luggage from...

I honeymooned in Disney, and did a cruise too! We actually did Disney first for 4 days, then the cruise, then back to Disney for a few days. Definitely Magic Kingdom for a full day, and I would suggest getting park hopper passes so you could try to do Epcot and Animal Kingdom the 2nd day...

I agree with LAKid53 - try for Port Orleans - both Riverside and French Quarter are beautiful resorts! Since you're only there for a few days, I highly suggest staying on property so you can spend as much time as possible in Disney. Plus since there is so much going on in the parks you'll be...

You could take the Minnie Van.... https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2018/08/use-minnie-vans-for-travel-from-orlando-international-airport-to-from-walt-disney-world-resort-hotels/ It's no Magical Express but it's a great Disney start to your vacation!

Yes, you should book your meals 6 months in advance :) You're going during Halloween season and Food and Wine, parks will be crowded. Decide which parks you would like to visit, and then narrow down restaurant selections from there based on your parks. All the Disney parks have amazing...

I say take the buses. I've had a car numerous times at Disney and find the Disney transportation much easier to take. Even though there may be long waits, I like not having to deal with traffic, parking, and finding my way home at the end of long days. I'm on vacation, Disney transportation...

They tell you when you make your appointment to bring your own hair brush with you, and yes they do get their own makeup kit for the makeover, as well as being able to take it home with them. Keep in mind depending on how hot it is when you go, some of those dresses are scratchy and hot...

I've taken the Amtrak Auto Train from VA to FL numerous times! We drive from CT to VA and then relax on the train for 17 hours. I love being able to pack up my minivan, not deal with airport security, and then just sit back. I find the seats large and comfy, plenty of leg room and the seat...

Another vote here for Contempo Café at the Contemporary...there are so many different options for food, I have never had a bad meal there.

Oh, and go get yourself a pretty cane, helps also with balance. Remember to put Mickey stickers on the boot :)

I did that last year while in Disney for training with all our agents. I broke my pinky toe & had a heel procedure on the same foot :) That boot gives you more mobility than you think it will, plus hanging on to your stroller gives you balance. I didn't do the ECV because I like to be...

I love Ohana's for dinner....what's better than all you can eat being brought to your table? :)

To start your vacation with a Disney bang, I'd suggest Chef Mickey, you get buffet food so everyone finds something they like, there are characters and you get to watch the Monorail go through the Contemporary. You can also do a Monorail trip and just ride the monorail around the loop before...

At least Disney does a great job of taking care of their guests during bad weather times :) Bad weather is still a good time in Disney! :)

Half the fun of a Disney vacation is the planning!! Sounds like you're well on your way to doing that!! Congrats to your friends' on getting engaged! Make sure to buy Mickey ear hats for the future bride and groom! About the magic bands...no worries if some of you have the same name...you...

Years ago we got stuck on Splash Mountain, right at the bottom of the ramp before you go out and down...those darn crows kept telling us "they'd show us our happy place" That phrase still is a joke of ours!

How romantic!! Keep in mind that December is a high volume time of year and even though free dining may or may not be offered, availability for those packages may be very limited for your desired dates. I'd suggest you decide if you're doing the Anniversary surprise trip regardless, book your...

I think the merch discount is significant enough to warrant renewing my AP! Even though I have TiW, I rarely get dining discounts at quick service restaurants so that adds up too. Add in the Memory Maker and I'm breaking even with a 7day park hopper pass by renewing my AP. I shop so much...

Tusker House wins my vote. I love that the food is different from most buffets and the juice is delicious!
