Bright suns, Abby, and welcome to planDisney! Thank the maker that we're not in a galaxy far, far away because I'd love to help you plan your upcoming
Walt Disney World Resort visit. What a generous and thoughtful gift you've arranged for your boyfriend. The Force must be strong between you two!
Savi's Workshop is a truly immersive experience for Star Wars fans, so I'm sure your favorite Jedi will have the time of his life designing and building a lightsaber. I think
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is one of the most immersive lands at Walt Disney World. While I'm the biggest fan in my family, my husband enjoys taking in the sights and sounds of Batuu. One of our favorite treats is the Cold Brew Black Caf at
Kat Saka's Kettle. Ask for the spiked version if you feel like traveling on the Dark Side!
I spoke to a droid-loving Cast Member who suggested you and your boyfriend stop by the check-in location at Savi's Workshop anytime before his reservation. If your name is on the experience as the builder, you can explain that he will be the guest participating.
The Cast Member added that if your boyfriend's name is on the reservation, he shouldn't have any problems checking in by himself as long as he has the confirmation number, a photo ID, and the credit card used to pay for the booking. Feel free to call the
Tours and Recreation line if you have more questions.
Did you know that one guest could accompany the builder to this experience? You might decide to become a padawan yourself! I've heard from friends that the experience takes about half an hour, so you could watch him build his lightsaber and then catch
For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Singalong Celebration together later.
Abby, I hope you have an out-of-this-world time on your trip. If you see R2-D2, tell him he's my favorite! Please
stop by planDisney anytime. Til the spire!
Magic awaits,
Elaine
