Bonjour & Bienvenue, Lexi!
I can think of no better place to begin a
happily ever after than Disneyland Paris, and I am absolutely honored that planDisney is able to play a small part!
Whether your brother is planning a grand proposal in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle or a more intimate moment in a secluded part of the theme park, I completely understand his desire to have the moment captured on camera. It's been 13 years, and I still love looking back on the photos of my husband asking me to start our life together.
In an effort to help your brother preserve his proposal, I reached out to a Disneyland Paris representative for assistance with your question. He helpfully shared that
Disney PhotoPass photographers will be more than happy to photograph the proposal for you, but to do so, the proposal will typically need to take place in one of the designated photo spots. You can helpfully find these locations by using the map feature in the
Disneyland Paris mobile app. Once you've navigated to the map, you can select 'Characters' and 'Magic Shots' to identify locations photographers are regularly stationed. If your brother is utilizing one of these designated spots and photographers for his proposal, I suggest that he or someone else in your party step aside to inform the photographer as your group approaches so they're ready to capture the magic.
While it's not possible to arrange a photographer in advance, it was also suggested that you consider having a member of the party speak to a Cast Member at
City Hall in Disneyland Park upon arrival to share your magical plans and see if they have any day-of photography suggestions or pixie dust to share.
A bit of pixie dust from the panel before I bid you
adieu: Although you won't find PhotoPass photographers there, Fantasia Gardens, just outside the
Disneyland Hotel is filled with flowers, fountains, topiaries, and gazebos that would provide a picturesque spot for a proposal a member of your family could capture.
I hope this information is helpful for your family, Lexi, and that a
practically perfect proposal awaits! Don't hesitate to reach back out if you need any additional assistance. We're always happy to help here at
planDisney!
Thinking Happy Thoughts,
Lizzie
