16 Days of Disney! A Wedding and Disneymoon Trip Report!

Introduction

Welcome to my Disney World Wedding and Disneymoon trip report! For the full pre-trip report, click here.

I’ve decided to start by introducing…

The Full Cast

First (copypasta!) there’s me:
8323362919_c9cffbceda_o.jpg

24 year old, prior-Air Force, college student with a possibly unhealthy love for Disney and Disney World in particular. This makes my fourth trip to Disney World since my very first trip in 2009.


Coda:

27 year old merchant marine. This is his second trip to Disney World.


Coda’s twin (yep, twin, honestly) brother, Levi, and his girlfriend, Carolyn:

Levi's first (and only) trip was in 2010, and Carolyn hasn't been since she was a kid.


My mom, dad, and my brother, Michael:

This is everyone's first trip!


Coda’s mom and sister, SuHana:
Apparently we have absolutely no pictures of Coda's mom... So this is Coda and SuHana.

Also their first trip.


Our friend, Reuben and his son, Cy:

Yep, their first trip too!


Wow! Can I just say that I will never bring this many people to Disney World (or anywhere else, for that matter) EVER again! Levi and Carolyn joined us from December 15th – 22nd, and they were great! Reuben and Cy were there from the 16th – 22nd, but man, they were a handful. My family and Coda’s mom and sister arrived on the 20th and left on the 22nd and that was complete madness. I promise, we’ll get to that.


The Plan

This trip was supposed to be completely stress free! Key word here is “supposed”. Shockingly, it was not.

We ended up arriving a day early on the 14th. The first few days were mainly for Coda to spend time with his brother and friend Reuben. Coda’s brother, Levi, lives in Alaska (for those of you who are geographically challenged, that is many miles from North Carolina), and they hadn’t seen each other in over a year. The 20th through the 22nd were days to spend with family and, most importantly, get married. Finally, the 23rd through the 29th was our honeymoon. Again, supposed to be stress- and drama-free…

Oh, there was also much consumption of Disney food planned.

Next up: How things actually played out.

I have a story regarding the phone in your hand! :D One time on a drive down to the World, my mom's phone started ringing and she was looking everywhere for it. It sounded like it had fallen under a seat. Turns out she had put it in the sleeve of her coat while she was reaching for something. I was crying from laughing so much! But after what was probably 15 hours in a car, I either laugh at everything or am mad at everyone! :p

Anyway, great TR! It's honestly one of the better ones I've read! I'm glad your trip turned in a better direction after everyone had left, I know how family can sometimes get in the way of a vacation, especially Disney.

Loved your trip report! I've been waiting with anticipation for the last day for like a week, totally made me feel stalkerish. Hope all the family drama is working itself out. So glad to see you have upcoming trips planned, can't wait to read those reports as well!

I just want to say that I just LOVED going through your pictures!!! So amazing! You looked so beautiful and I wish you and your Hubby every happiness!!!!

I am sorry for the way his mom and sister acted, I know how that feels. That's what happened to me and my family at my brother's wedding. His wife just treated us so bad and was even more horrible to me, I could go on and on about it all. We still don't get along, though I try the 1 time a year we see them. (But then again, i'm a Disney nerd and she is the type of person that thinks Disney is for kids only.)

Read this trip report last night and it's amazing! Great pictures and what looked to be a lovely and amazing wedding!! I love reading trip reports like these, as being in the UK it's a long way from my second home, WDW so I am there in pictures when I read trip reports like this!

Amazing Trip report, glad you had a lovely time! :)

Tracy, loved your trip report! What a great read that was and it's funny how a few questions I had along the way were answered through the next posts as I continued reading.

Your pics were amazing as well (including the panoramic views).

Oh and before I go (where are my manners :rolleyes:): Congrats to you and Coda for your wedding!

Now off to read another of your trip reports (the birthday one!)

Oh boy… Then we made it to Germany. The purpose of this stop was for this beauty:

Four ounces of hot salted caramel. Yum! Maybe even better than butterbeer! Thankfully, Coda doesn’t like caramel, so I didn’t have to share! :D

What's the name of this drink? Where in Germany did you get it?

hek, I am quite late but what a report!!! Great pictures! Wish we could take our honnymoon pictures inside DLP, but it is not allowed, not even before opening hours. So we went to some other places in Paris :)
