Most Affordable Place for a Pre-Wedding Mani-Pedi?

[flipadeeflop]

My fiance and I officially booked our Memories wedding for April 2015!!!! Ahh I can't believe it!!! I am now looking for a place to get a mani-pedi with my mom and future mother-in-law. I plan on paying for everyone, and was checking out Swan and Dolphin which looks like a mani-pedi for the 3 of us will end up costing around $400 or more with tip. Is there any other spas around that you guys know about that would be accessible by Disney bus and would be a little more affordable, but still give that Disney experience? Thanks!

Does it have to be accessible buy Disney bus? For less than $400 you could certainly rent a taxi/towncar and go somewhere offsite for your mani/pedi and still save some money.

PS--
Good luck and congrats by the way!

I would try and contact visitorlando.com I know they are primarily theme park tickets and promoting Orlando, but ya just never know...they may be able to give you some phone numbers(at least) of nearby spas. Good Luck and congrats! Your dream wedding will be Magical...I have a hunch!

Grand Floridian is less than that

Following... Because I'm proposing on our trip in Feb., and on her list of "6 Rules", one is "Make Sure My Nails Are Done", so she needs at least a good mani.

Oh really!? I would sooo much rather go there anyway. I just assumed it would be pricey so didn't even think to check! Thanks!

I am curious to hear the rest of the rules! (Hint: They don't give out "Just Engaged" buttons, but my fiance and I got "Happily Ever After" buttons and wrote "Just Engaged" below with Sharpie, so that might be something you might try and find already made on Etsy or something before you go!) Congrats!

GF is $55 + $80 so won't be less. Yacht Club is similar to Mandara ($35 + $55 each) ...prices are all listed; https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/spas. I'm thinking your less expensive alternative without trekking across Orlando would be one of the hotels on Disney property that aren't run by Disney (hotel plaza blvd near Downtown Disney).

It's pinned on Pinterest a few places, and she sent it to me, but the text of it goes:

Only 6 Rules
1. Ask for my parents' blessing
2. Make it a complete surprise
3. Use my full name
4. Get down on one knee
5. Have someone catch it on camera
6. Make sure my nails are done

#1 is getting done in a few weeks when I take her dad out to dinner and buy the ring off him (family diamond he is providing, with an antique set she picked out last year), #2 is pretty much sealed #3 & 4 are obvious must-do's, and for #5 I'm hoping to take advantage of the Memory Maker. And to play into the distraction, right before I propose, her BF (and future MOH) will be at her parent's house and is going to FaceTime her right before I propose.

I think I've planned the proposal out just as much as the WDW trip!

And thanks for the heads-up on the pins. I was looking forward to that part, knowing she's want them as a keepsake as well. Time to do some more browsing...

This sounds great! You could steal the phone from her right before you propose and say "Oh I want them to see how cute your outfit looks" or "Oh I want to say hi!" Then aim it at her so they can see her reaction! It's sweet that you are really making sure you do what she dreams you'll do!

I hope you have a very nice wedding ,I'll be at staying at the swan in April

That's great! Maybe I will see you there if I get my nails done there! hah!

Oh great I will look into both of those options! Thank you for the helpful information!
