Hello,
I was in Disney World for my honeymoon in September (17th) and my hubby was NOT going to wear those ears!! I had bought them when I went down in 99 with my mom since we had no plans on going to Disney world again for awhile, but we ended up going there for the Honeymoon....so I packed the hats in our carry on and brought them with us...I know we could have bought a new pair, but I had also talked him into wearing them for our last dance at the wedding so they had significance....also our DJ (a Disney nut too) saw us wearing them and played M-I-C...see ya real soon.....and so we stood in the middle of the dance floor facing our guests and sang the song ( I got the see ya real soon and Y? because we like you part!)
ANYWAY.....when we got there he was going to wear it sometimes, and I would mostly wear mine, but once he saw the special treatment we got he wore them all the time! Not to mention he got picked on by the CM's when he wasn't wearing his and I was wearing mine!
We got free desserts, we got an entire cake at the German restaurant in Epcot, champagne....an entire boat to ourselves on the Pirates of the Caribbean and also as many rides on the big thunder mountain as we wanted (the CM running the ride said that Mickey called and wanted us to keep riding!) We also got picked to be in the show at MGM, the backstage lot tour...at the beginning they have a show with audience members on the boat.
On alot of the rides we were able to ride by ourselves when there would normally be many people....of course when we went it was right after 9/11 and there really weren't many people there.
We also got an autographed picture of Mickey and Minnie (of course they were written out to Mr and Mrs. my maiden name since I booked the room, but we called the front desk and they got Mickey and Minnie to sign a new photo) plus there were balloons and a pin for honeymooners staying at the Yacht and Beach.
We also got a free photo of us on the Rock and Roller Coaster with our names, the date and Honeymooners! written on the photo....we loved all the royal treatment!
He never wanted to take the hat off...well until the end of our trip....we were so tired by the end of the 10 days that we just couldn't take all the treatment any more!! LOL
Whatever you choose to do...make sure you throw in whenever talking to anyone that you are on your honeymoon..you never know!
