Hey Ray! Welcome to planDisney! I am so excited to hear about your plan to host a dessert party with your best people! It sounds like a fantastic idea, and I'm already dreaming about doing the same myself. I'd be happy to help you with your question today.
As you certainly know, the
Walt Disney World Resort is the perfect place to host such an event, and EPCOT is a fantastic choice with so much delicious food and drinks to indulge in. Let's start with the S
un Tracker Pontoon boats. They are pretty cool if you want to have more control over your itinerary and drive yourself. You can rent one at
Disney's Yacht Club Resort or
Disney's Beach Club Resort to get closer to EPCOT. However, it's essential to know that they can only seat ten Guests, and rentals are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Depending on the time of year, it could be tough to get one.
In my opinion, the best option for you would be to book a
Fireworks Cruise to watch
Luminous The Symphony of Us right from the water. These boats can accommodate up to ten Guests as well, but they come with a captain to guide you, synchronized audio on board with the show, and assorted snacks and soft drinks. You can also request festive banners and balloons included with your booking. The prices of these cruises vary depending on the date and can change at any time, but they start at $449 plus tax, and you can book them in advance.
If your Guest list exceeds ten, you have two excellent options within the theme park: the
Spice Road Table Fireworks Dining Package and the
Rose & Crown Fireworks Dining Package. Both packages offer an exclusive viewing location for the fireworks and a dining experience complete with appetizers, entreés, desserts, and unlimited beverages. It's advisable to make advance reservations, as these packages are popular and can fill up quickly.
Ray, I'm confident that any of these options will make your event unforgettable and magical for you and your guests. Please
let me know if you have any more questions. It's always a pleasure to help out a friend like you!
Cheers
Nilson
