Jason - thanks for all the hard work. I am so glad Epcot's birthday is going to be celebrated. There are 2 viewing areas for Italy - which one are you getting? I will ask my manager if I can be the red light CM and not the bar cashier for that night. I do a lot of these events and my own opinion is you have picked the best dessert #2 but I wouldn't have the bar. It just complicates everything. Guests can go across the promonade and buy a glass of wine. You want to have a great dessert party and enjoy Illuminations
period. Forget the bar if you think there will be a lot of children in the group.
Who is your event planner?

Yes, F&W will be just starting the weekend prior. But usually the drinks are just sampler-size from the tasting stands.
I think the final decision on the bar can wait until we get have a lot more signups and then we'll see what the majority wants. If we have a good shot at hitting the $500 mark to waive the bartender fee, then I think having the bar makes sense, since it will only cost the $35 cashier fee.
It`s occured to me that if F&W is running, The Odyssey should be open - right? Another highlight! Forget the food & wine; I`ll be taking pictures of the interior decor and layout 
As for the bar, we`re easy either way; Michelle and I are non drinkers (now; we didn`t used to be - that`s part the reason we are now tee total if you get my drift) Though of course I`m not saying I think a bar would be bad for everyone else.

I just want the bar so i can buy a coke or sprite. I don't like the other berage options.

Figments Friend...this is off topic, but I couldn't e-mail you privately. Are you really "friends with Figment" b/c I am going down for entertainment auditions in Sept. and Figment is my character of choice and I would love to talk with you about it!

There are usually lots of events in the Odysey for F&W. I think that's where they have a lot of the dinners, cooking demonstrations, etc. I think some of them are free so you should have no problem getting in there!

As if I wasn't stoked up about this already, if a CM is making this statement the excitement level just went to overdrive.
Can anyone clarify the "2 viewing areas" statement ? I just went back and checked out the aerial photo. I notice they have the 2 sections left and right of the walk up landing. Are those the 2 areas ? Or are the 2 sections left and right considered 1 area and the walk up area another ?
C'mon October.....

The West section is the landing toward American Adventure. The East section comprises the landing on the Germany side as well as the island and bridges. I'm not sure which section we have, or if the Event Coordinator reserved both for us. The East section holds more than the West section, and since I told her 100-200 people, I'm hoping we get the East section. The landing on the Germany side really doesn't have a great view, but the view from the island is spectacular.

Well, after much delay, I am back with a small update. We haven't quite hit 160 people, but we have hit 150. Considering that the free portion of the event's registration will be open until August, we can say that there are more to come. I am still working on several of my ideas for the event and am designing a few more suprises for all that attend.
One quick note is that this event will be covered photo and video-wise by the site so that the memories can be shared and saved for years to come!

Well, I'm sure some of us will be bringing a full video setup with K lights and a rolling studio. :lookaroun
:ROFLOL: In all honesty I`ll be borrowing my dads DV cam again. However, I knew there was a reason I got a new stills camera last Christmas
Go for it!
Everyone go nuts and film everything....maybe we can compile the footage and make a fan dvd of the Event?
