Travel Planner e

Usually one of the first things people think about a Walt Disney World vacation is about how
expensive the trip is going to be. True . . . a Walt Disney World vacation can easily break the
bank, if you’re not careful. But with a little advance planning, you’ll find that there are so many
options available, and a lot of ways to make the trip just as affordable as any other vacation
destination. We’ve purposefully selected a date for our wedding that provides the lowest resort
pricing of the year. The next couple of pages provide an overview of all the things you’ll need to
Budget know with a few of our best money-saving and fun-maximizing tips thrown in. Be sure to check
Worksheet www.andreahandbrian.com for the latest information. We’ll be posting updates often,
