Wedding bells are ringing, Robert! I am so happy you stopped by planDisney with your question about a ceremony at Walt Disney World Resort. My wife's cousin got married in the Germany Pavilion at EPCOT with a reception in Canada, and it was a perfectly magical celebration of love. Just as Ray the firefly adored the Evening Star in The Princess and the Frog, I'd be glad to help you learn how to plan a simple ceremony for you and your own Evangeline down in the bayou at
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter.
The place to start for a request like yours is
Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings. You can visit their site and
connect with a Cast Member who can go over all of the available options for a ceremony like the one you have described here. I looked at the venues they have available, and it looks like there is one at
Port Orleans - Riverside! The Oak Manor Lawn would provide a stately background for your upcoming nuptials, and there are specific time slots available in the morning, afternoon, and evening.
I am wishing you the best as you plan your happily ever after, Robert! If you want to add a celebratory meal to your upcoming visit, look no further than dinner at
Narcoossee's. A group of friends and I recently dined here and it was hands down the best food experience I have ever had at Disney World. Everything from the drinks to the appetizers to the Almond-crusted Cheesecake was absolutely perfect, and our server was kind, attentive, and fun! I haven't stopped talking about this meal since I ate it, and I can't wait to go back and do it all again.
Please visit us again if you need more recommendations or assistance as you plan your upcoming wedding! We love that you're in love and we're eager to share our tips and advice with you. Perhaps a honeymoon at Disney World? Let us know!
Stay magical,
Scott
