Hey There, Hi There, Ho There, Courtney!
Welcome to planDisney! We are so excited you stopped by and are honored to help you plan your next Disney World vacation! I have five kids, so I totally understand your question about experiencing the MAGIC of Disney World on a budget. I can also tell you are a planner...WAY TO GO! Doing your research now will most definitely save you time and money when you arrive at the
Most Magical Place on Earth in August!
I want to let you know that once you purchase
Disney World park tickets, these tickets cannot be refunded or transferred. With this in mind, I have an idea for you...
My recommendation would be to book a room-only reservation for your preferred dates. Once those dates are locked, I would then start checking the
Special Offers section on the
Disney World website to find the current promotions available. Here, you can find TIGGER-ific deals on things like vacation packages, park tickets, and more! Once you find a great promotion that fits your timeframe and budget, you can then talk to a Cast Member to modify your reservation. I would check the Special Offers regularly to make sure you don't miss a thing. You can also check the
Disney Parks Blog for the most up-to-date information on all things Disney!
You are planning your next trip to Disney World at the perfect time! Make sure you experience the
EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival, which should begin around the time you arrive! Check the Disney World website in early spring for more details. Oh, and don't forget the spook-tacular
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party that will more than likely begin in mid-August! NOTE: If you have never been to this event, you are in for a REAL TREAT - literally and figuratively! This is hands down my favorite event Mickey Mouse plans throughout the year!
If you have other questions, please do not hesitate to ask! We are here to help in any way!
Have a MAGICAL day!
Wes
