The locations at which it is possible to get married at Disney
The Walt Disney World complex is very large. In addition to the theme parks, there are wonderful hotels. The possible locations for unions are multiple.
For example, at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, you could take your vows in the wedding pavilion surrounded by beautiful gardens and a beautiful white sand beach.
You could also choose to unite with Epcot in the World Showcase which offers an enchanting setting inspired from around the world. Imagine the fabulous photos in the gardens of the Pavilion de la Chine or front of the Eiffel Tower at the Pavilion of France!
Since 2016, couples can also organize their wedding ceremony in Magic Kingdom Park with the Magic Kingdom After Hours Weddings package. The planned location is the Plaza Garden East. This European-style garden located on the right side of Cinderella’s Castle (towards the Tomorrowland section of the park) is a great place to exchange wedding rings.
To make the moment even more magical, an additional fee of around $ 2,700 can leave the chapel in Cinderella’s carriage pulled by 6 white ponies. The bride-to-be can buy her wedding dress at Walt Disney World. In homage to the Disney princesses, the creator Alfred Angelo offers in his collection creations and even replicas of wedding dresses inspired by Cinderella, Belle, and Snow White. You can also dress the bridesmaids and flower girls.
Let’s talk about the budget for the marriage!
An average wedding at Walt Disney World in Florida for a hundred guests, meals, and entertainment can easily cost over the US $ 30,000. There are several different packages and some start at around the US $ 3000.
How to plan a wedding at Disney
Are you interested in a fairytale wedding at Walt Disney World in Florida and wondering where to start? Here is some information to give you a little insight.
One of the first steps is to define this:
- How much are you willing to spend on your Disney wedding?
- How many people do you want to invite?
- In how long, on what approximate date do you want to get married?
Once these three pieces of information have been defined, you will be able to choose one of the packages offered by Disney.
Depending on the wedding package you choose, you need to plan it well in advance. For example, Disney says on its site that for the Wishes package, it is recommended that you plan for at least 16 months. Other packages require a slightly shorter plan but it usually takes at least 1 year.
As of this writing in 2017, there are 3 different packages: Wishes, Escape, and Memories.
It will be mainly the number of people invited and the budget that will allow you to determine the package. For example, Memories is the cheapest plan. With this package, you can invite up to 4 people to your wedding and it allows you to choose between 3 different locations.
