When are you going in November if I can ask? We are gonna do California grill brunch on a Sunday too!
I totally understand doing it this way for your honeymoon. I would just do a rough estimate of what you would spend out of pocket vs. the dining plan based on what you would eat. You might find that you save a few hundred dollars paying out of pocket that you could use on a romantic cruise to watch illuminations or something similar.

Doesn’t the deluxe plan include appetizers for dinner? It’s possible this is only at select restaurants, we were at BOG when I asked, I doubt it matters at buffets. Did you say above that you’re going to do quick service? I’d spend those TS on an actual sit down with waitstaff meal. Other than that I think you’re doing this the right way, celebrate on your honeymoon and don’t worry about the cost that you’ve already paid. Congratulations!
In that case, I hope you’ll do a review of the brunch with pics so I can read alongWe are going the first full week of Nov. Moving our travel up so we can do the brunch on our first full day!
I am pretty sure that the Dlxdp does still include appetizers at an non buffet dining lunch or dinner. I think the alcohol is in addition!
If you go over to the Disney Dining Plan board you will see that Deluxe still comes with appetizer, so you will each get an appetizer, entrée and dessert (oh yeah and those alcoholic beverages or specialty drink). This is why most people don't do 3 TX on the deluxe plan as it is just to much food. I don't think many people would buy deluxe if they dropped the appetizer!
It is a lot of food. We really try and plan are meals carefully though. We may have a simple granola bar from home for breakfast and then have an 11:00 ADR for lunch and then use a snack credit later and then dinner around 7:00 at a signature location. We always throw in a character breakfast or 2 as well. Of course leftovers make a great breakfast too! Have you had a chance to check out the menus on Allears yet! They are so helpful in the decision making process!
