Hi Sean, welcome to planDisney!
There’s nothing more romantic than proposing to the person you love in a place that makes you both happy. In my opinion, Walt Disney World Resort is a perfect place to propose!
Sean, if you are planning to propose at
Be Our Guest Restaurant, I recommend letting the Cast Members know when you check in for your reservation at the host stand. If possible, get your partner to go look around the entrance to the restaurant while you speak to the Cast Members. You may be able to request a special dessert for your table to arrive during or after your proposal.
When it comes to characters participating in your proposal, this is not something that is offered as an add-on. The Beast does make appearances during dinner at Be Our Guest, but a Cast Member informed me that it is an occasional walk-through and not a scheduled time during the meal. I suggest that you visit
Princess Fairytale Hall after your proposal to make a royal announcement to the Princesses that you are newly engaged! I think it is a great idea to get photos of you sharing the news with the characters you can meet throughout the theme parks.
Speaking of photos, for this momentous occasion, I highly recommend that you purchase
Memory Maker for your visit to Walt Disney World Resort. With Memory Maker, you can take as many photos as possible with
Disney PhotoPass photographers throughout your vacation so you can remember this vacation forever. I also recommend booking a
Capture Your Moment session, for a personal photo shoot after you propose. These are available in all four theme parks, so you can book the one that means the most to you as a couple.
I hope this was helpful, Sean. Good luck with your proposal, perhaps there’s a
Disney Fairy Tale Wedding in your future?
I’ll be here for you at planDisney if you have any future questions.
Wishing you a happily ever after,
Kaitlin
