Hi Catherine,
Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with this question. You must be getting excited; your trip is right around the corner!
Yes, if your husband wants to meet you for dinner at a restaurant in one of the four
Walt Disney World Resort theme parks, he will need to purchase a theme park ticket. If you do not want to purchase a theme park ticket for your husband, you may want to consider some of the fantastic and varied
dining options at Disney Springs. In addition, there are many wonderful
dining options at the Resort hotels. My family particularly enjoys the fun
dining options at Disney's BoardWalk area.
I hope this helps with your planning, Catherine. If you have any other questions about your upcoming trip, please stop back again.
Wishing you many magical memories!
Erin
