    My son is getting married this summer. They are not having a rehearsal, they just want a dessert party or appetizers/drinks. They wanted one by Epcot to view the fireworks but would be about 10k, way out of our budget. What other venues options are there?

    Hi Marivee! Thank you so much for reaching out to planDisney with such a meaningful question, and congratulations to your son on his upcoming wedding. What a special moment for your family!

    One important thing to keep in mind is that venues located inside the theme parks tend to be among the most expensive options across the entire Walt Disney World Resort. While there are a few in-park locations that can sometimes come in lower depending on the day, time, and exact setup, we here at planDisney don't have access to pricing tools, availability calendars, or the specifics tied to individual accounts or budgets.

    Because your plans are more casual in nature, your best next step would be to reach out directly to the Disney's Fairytale Weddings & Honeymoons team. They specialize in exactly these kinds of celebrations and can walk you through alternative venues that may better fit your budget. This includes locations outside the parks, resort-based venues, lounges, terraces, and other spaces that still feel incredibly special without the premium price tag that comes with in-park fireworks views.

    When you contact them, they'll be able to provide a personalized quote based on your guest count, preferred vibe, and budget range, and they can also suggest creative alternatives you may not even realize are available. Many of these options still offer beautiful settings, water views, or celebratory ambiance.

    Marivee, I truly hope this helps point you in the right direction. With the right guidance, I'm confident you'll find a lovely way to celebrate your son and his partner that feels joyful, memorable, and comfortable for everyone involved.

    Warm hugs,

    Ana Paula
