I just read about this on another site. Has anyone every done this? Apparently, you can have private dining set up at various locations throughout the resort.
Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! http://www.intercot.com/boards/smile.gif

Got some info on this so I thought I'd post it in case anyone else was interested! I called today to the Grand Floridian and got passed around to a few people before I spoke to Patricia, a very nice woman in Private Dining. You don't have to be a guest of the Grand Floridian to take part in the private dining experience. They can set you up for dinner on the third floor balcony or on their yacht, the Grand I, if you'd like. They have romantic packages, customizable packages, or you can order off the in-room (room service) menu. She faxed me the menus so if anyone wants them, let me know and I can scan them in and email.
It sounds pretty intriguing. I may nix our plans for our anniversary dinner at California Grill and do this instead! http://www.intercot.com/boards/smile.gif

Thanks, Imalismom. Here's the info I've been emailing to anyone who has asked:
************************
Below are the private dining experience menus. I realized when I scanned them they were not readable, so I typed them up quick. I've only included the romantic packages. They also sent me the room service menu from the Grand Floridian, as you can order off that as well. In addition, you could customize a menu based on what you'd like, and they will get a price for you.
I've already set up our dining experience for December. We'll be dining on the balcony overlooking the GF courtyard and Cinderella's castle. The server is going to meet us in the lobby to take us to the location. It's a surprise for my hubby! I'm so excited!
The direct number to Patricia and Carolyn (the two women I've dealt with at GF Private Dining) is 407-824-2578.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me!
