Hi Ladies! I can't believe this thread is still being used! I feel famous for starting it

Anyway, we stayed at the Polynesian Resort during our honeymoon in Oct. 07. I figured I would post some pictures of the grounds and our room so anyone who is thinking about staying there can see what it looks like.

BTW, we absolutely LOVED it there! I could have stayed there forever, and Ohana restaurant is soooooo good. The family style dinner was the best thing we ate during the whole two weeks we were away! Captain Cooks is a great little snack shop on the Polynesian Grounds, we ate breakfast there every morning... Sooooo delicious!!!

I posted the link to my Polynesian Album below, too many pics to resize otherwise....

Have a great time on your Disneymoon Ladies!!


Polynesian Resort



Great pictures. Glad you had a great time. I can't wait to go. We are staying at the GF. Only 27 more days until we are on our honeymoon.

Wow, I can't beleive that I have never seen this board as many times as I have been on LIW, LOL! Anyway, DH and I just returned from our honeymoon. We spent a week on a Caribbean Cruise to Jamaica, Cozumel, and Grand Cayman and then spent a week at Disney. We stayed at Port Orleans French Quarter. We had soooo much fun. I didn't want to come home!!! Here are a couple pics from Disney

if you haven't booked your hm already, i could help you out in price. fm me if you need

and the photopass cd definitely not worth it



i have 600 PROFESSIONAL pictures from that CD that only cost $100 ...how is that not worth it
if you take that many pictures with your own camera and develop them or whatever.. it will cost probably the same amount.



Im going to agree too!! Esp since i worked in photopass and was a trainer! It is TOTALLY worth it! You just have to do it! if you arent going to use the service but once then its not worth it but its UNLIMITED photos for one price with the copyright!!

And if you are smart...you will reserve a spot at the grand floridian on the last day to do a prof photo session...they take you around for 20 min and put all those on the CD plus 3 5X7s! for 125 bucks!!! really now how is that not worth it!

OK I have my room, plane tickets, park tickets

I still need to make some reservations and buy the dining plan. How do I get the magical express. My friend booked the room through disney vacation club. Do I need her to do that for me?

Re: Disney Honeymoon Thread.....Lots of info on every page!

we are thinking about booking at shades of green since FH is military.

we are going back and forth between the cruise a europe disney trip or shades of green and doing disney world.

we are also trying to decide to go somewhere ourselves or bring my daughter along and making it more a family trip than a traditional honeymoon.

hmmmmmmmm what to do what to do

i know we have time to decide and book but i'd like to do it sooner rather that last min.

How does the photo pass thing work? Are those the people at all the entrances to the park and such? Ive seen them all over but never wanted to get pics taken, this time i want to abuse it lol. Also how do i book a private photo session? and does it get added to the same photo pass cd or is it extra $$? I guess FM me the info since im really clueless. TIA!

Here is the info on the photo pass

Here is the info for the private session in one of the disney parks: Enjoy a 1 hour portrait session with a Professional Disney Photographer at a designated Walt Disney World® location. You will receive twenty (20) 4×6 prints in a beautiful Disney-Themed, bound album. For reservations please call Disney Photographic Services (407) 827-5099.

Here's the info on the Professional Portrait service at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa: Sign up for a one-on-one photography session with one of our photographers. You’ll get beautiful photos with a personal and professional touch and all the photos will be included on your PhotoCD. Sitting fee is required. Reservations are required and can be booked up to 30 days in advance. Call 407-824-1700 to book.
You can pay $49.95 for a Sitting Fee only. In this case you are given a PhotoPass with the approximately 40 photos that will have been taken during the session. You can use that PhotoPass to select individual prints and pay for each one. Alternatively, you can pay $124.95 for the Sitting Fee plus all of the PhotoPass pictures taken by PhotoPass photographers throughout your stay on a PhotoPass CD. The Grand Floridian photo session must be booked in advance.
