Does anyone have any experience with Disney's Intimate Weddings? My fiancee and I have set a date for June 6, 2002 and I am looking for any suggestions or comments. This will be my 15th trip to WDW and his 3rd.

My wife and I were married at Sea Breeze Point (between Boardwalk and Beach Club). We had an intimate wedding, and it was fantastic.
Here's what I remember (a couple of years will fog over details, especially for us men).
Disney Wedding consultants gave us a few options (flowers, music choices, etc) and dealt with the details of getting it done.
We were sent a list of officiants (we picked Reverend Jack Day), photo/video (I think we went "off the board" to K&K Productions*), wrote our own service, and showed up.
Overall the experience was, to use a different word, wonderful. We went a little extra and rented "The Attic" (a small place in Boardwalk) and had Disney cater. Another fantastic experience.
I am not going to say that the planning phase went smoothly. We had three different wedding consultants in the 6 months prior to the wedding. We did not always see eye-to-eye with Disney's philosophy of what happens at an intimate wedding.
More people attended than we had expected (considering the distance), and that caused us quite a bit of stress.
We had a real problem with music. The day of the wedding, a violinist from the Orlando Symphony Orchestra -- she got a our list of music choices, and didn't know many of them (we were a bit, shall we say, obscure in some of our choices). She, with our approval, substituted more well-known pieces.
But, when all was said and done, we would do it again in a heartbeat.
* I recommend K&K Productions most highly. They worked as unobtrusively as possible, took LOTS of photos, made a very good video, didn't try to sell us a "wedding album", and sent us the negatives when it was all said and done. All this for an exceptionally reasonable price.
