Welcome to planDisney, Natalie! I'm so glad you came by! And congratulations on your upcoming marriage! A bachelorette trip at
The Most Magical Place on Earth sounds amazing! My daughter celebrated with her bridal party at Walt Disney World a few years ago and had so much fun!
There is no Disney transportation between
Disney Springs and any of the theme parks, so leaving your car there for the day and going to a theme park isn't a practical option. If you're visiting
Magic Kingdom Park, your best bet is to park at the Ticket and Transportation Center (known as the TTC). From there, you can take the
ferryboat or
monorail to Magic Kingdom. The other theme parks have their own respective parking lots. If you are a registered guest at a Disney Resort hotel, parking is free, but if you're staying offsite, there is a
charge. Another option is a rideshare service, such as Uber or Lyft, or your hotel may also offer a shuttle.
When you're at Disney Springs, stop by
Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar. They've got great drinks and great appetizers. My favorites are the Cool-Headed Monkey and the Chicken on the Egg. They're both yummy and Instagram-worthy. One of the best places to celebrate is
Trader Sam's Grog Grotto in Disney's Polynesian Resort. It's more than a bar, it's quite the experience! If possible, get there before opening to get your name on the list, because this is a popular place. They'll text you when there's an available table. I don't want to give anything away, but try to have everyone order something different. I recommend the Polynesian Pearl and the Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Rum. One more suggestion - brunch at
The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers at Disney's Boardwalk. It is the ultimate girls' day experience. If you can't get reservations, at least stop by the
Cake Bake Shop Bakery for dessert.
I hope you have the most magical time celebrating with your Bride Squad, Natalie! If there's anything else we can help with, please come back and see us at
planDisney! We want you to have your own Happily Ever After!
Always Dreaming -
