Sounds absolutely lovely. I'm sure you'll have a wonderful honeymoon. And as I'm sure you know, there are some really good counter-service restaurants, so I don't think you'll suffer from not having an ADR for every meal.

YAY for Disney Honeymoons! My hubby and I got married and honeymooned in WDW so I think it is perfect. Your plans sound great. We will also be at MNSSHP on Sept 11. I really wanted to bring a costume but DH reminded me of the costume fiasco of 2009 when we were going to MNSSHP and they were having record high temps. LOL. It was like 98 degrees at 10pm. Needless to say I ended up just wearing a tanktop and shorts. This year I don't know what I will do yet. Are you wearing a costume?

I would definitely not worry about a lack of ADRs for every meal. You will be more than well fed with what you have already Also, I've never had a problem getting a last minute ADR this time of year, you just need to be flexible. You may not get a character meal but there is usually something available somewhere.

We are dressing up for MNSSHP. Ease of transportation was probably the number one concern for me, over-dressing in a costume not suited for hot and humid weather ran a very close second lol. Up until very recently I was going to go as Cruella DeVille, and my hubby as a dalmatian. That idea got discarded as the amount of items to make a cool Cruella was getting out of hand (Wig, long red gloves, stoll, dress, etc) so we recently decided to make it simple. I will be a going as a witch, and my husband as a mad scientist. Everything is easy to pack and doesn't really require much care. I am making a long black skirt/tutu, already decorated my witches hat with a couple of decorative items, and we just need to pick up a pair of costume glasses for my husband. If we get record high temps , I will be wearing shorts an a t-shirt like you suggested

Your witch costume sounds so cute!

Back in 2009 I was going to go as a cute leopard/cat thing. I had a cute little leopard print dress and matching ears that my mom had made for my sister years ago. The thing I didn't take into consideration that caused me not to wear it was, even though it was fairly thin material, it was long sleeves with faux fur around the wrists, neck and hemline. I just couldn't do it. We were considering going as Hodgins and Angela from the show Bones but DH said it will still be too warm for lab coats. He's no fun. LOL. I will probably just bring my fun witch hat that has a spring tip with a bobble bat thing on it and DH will probably just wear orange and black. I will most likely purchase some sort of MNSSHP tshirt at some point.

edit: I just brought up costumes again to DH and suggested he be a Ghostbuster and I can be Slimer. He seemed ok with that so now I just need to figure out where I can get bright green shorts and a tshirt! I'm going to take one of his old tan button down shirts and put the GB logo on the back eek... I'm such a nerd!
