When you book a Grand Gathering you must have at least 8 people in your party, (not counting children under age 3). Disney will do it's best to make sure your rooms are all together if you are staying at the same resort.
With your dining, they will also do their best to make sure you are all seated together.
They also offer you quite a few special magical gatherings which I will list below that are only available to Grand Gathering guests. These can be booked up to 180 days in advance and up to 3 days prior.
I currently have well over 30 GG's under my belt. It can be a rather large undertaking and rather stressful for the person who is trying to get it all together. I can take a lot of that stress out of it and make it a LOT more manageable. Also if a discount comes out and your hotel is included in the discount and I can get it, you better believe I will be on the phone with Disney getting it.
