First time to DIsney with my GF

[Capt_redshirt]

My gf and I are planning our first trip to Disney in October. And I want to surprise her with some romantic gestures. The only thing is I am not sure what we could do while still being on a budget. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

For a meal idea, San Angel Inn has a nice setting.

You'll find a numer of ideas here - and many of them won't cost you a cent!

Where are you staying? We found the fireworks from the beach at CBR are great. That could be very romantic and not cost you anything.

We are staying at one of the value resorts. we both are just out of college and money is tight but we want to celebrate being done with school and being together at the same time. But we will have the deluxe dining plan so all the places in that guide will be an option

Congrats on being finished college!

DBF and I are also going (with various other family members... ) to celebrate my graduation. When we went in 2008 with his family, on our last night, we had dinner (just the 2 of us) at the GF Café and went out to spend time on the beach afterwards. It was deserted, but it was very romantic. I highly reccomend it

Awwwcute!!!! Last time just DH and I went and we enjoyed going over to the Poly for supper at Kona Cafe and then went for a stroll as the grounds there are so pretty. After that we went and found a place on the beach and watched the Electric Parade and fireworks from the beach, very very nice. You can see the Castle lite up and hear the music.
Its easy to get there if you don't want to drive take the bus to Magic Kingdom and then take the monorail over to the Poly.

If you wish to make it cheaper you could skip the supper, but since your on the dining plan you could use it as one of your TS. They have 2 very nice restaurants there.

Have fun

Here is a free idea:

Following Illuminations in EPCOT, people stream through Future World to get to the buses. I like to go to the bakery in France, maybe get a dessert to share while the crowds thin. Then we slowly walk back to Future World where on the left and right in the center of Future World, embedded in the cement are fiber-optics in the cement flooring, in various and shifting patterns. I like to dance with someone special on those special tiles to the "exit" music they play...a few special moments together in a place that's usually very crowded. That would be a good place for kissing (keep it G or PG-rated, please) or even a good place to propose marriage.
