Hiya Victoria!
Welcome to planDisney!
I love sharing the magic of Disney with my family; the more, the merrier! And there's nothing quite like visiting Walt Disney World Resort with a large group!
When I visited The Most Magical Place on Earth with my extended family, I learned I had to make two separate reservations to accommodate us all. To do this, you will want another Guest in your party to make the second reservation. Once the other Guest has made the second reservation, you can
call dining reservations and speak to a friendly Cast Member to ask if they can put in a request for your groups to be seated together.
Before it was time for our reservation, I also headed to the restaurant earlier to let the attending Cast Member know the two groups were together and if there was a way they could seat us together. Although this is just a request and is at the restaurant's discretion, Cast Members try their best to accommodate Guests. There were times our groups were seated nearby one another, as it's subject to availability.
Your family is going to love dining at
The Crystal Palace! The setting is full of whimsy with lots of natural light, inspired by Victorian greenhouses of the late 1800s. It's quite possibly my favorite way to meet our favorite
hunny-loving pal, Winnie the Pooh, and some of his best friends!
Do be sure everyone in your party is connected through the
Family & Friends list on your
My Disney Experience account, so you can all plan together. When my family visits, we sometimes break off into smaller groups due to various interests. Still, we always come together for a meal and an attraction everyone has agreed upon. It's a great way to catch up and share our adventures!
Wishing you all an enchanting vacation, Victoria!
