Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Kathleen. I'm so glad you dropped by! A Walt Disney World Resort vacation with a big family is sure to be BIG fun. Let's chat about your visit!
My top tip for big families visiting the Walt Disney World Resort is to purchase
Memory Maker. Why? Up to 25 Guests can be included in the purchase of one Memory Maker! That's to say, when you purchase this
Disney PhotoPass product, you can view, share, and download the photos collected by up to 25 people listed in your Family & Friends list. Isn't that incredible? I vacationed at the Walt Disney World Resort with my extended family of 14 and having Memory Maker was super great. Everyone was able to get in on the shot! And when we separated into smaller groups, everyone was still able to take advantage Memory Maker benefits. We had the best time checking out updated photos on the
My Disney Experience mobile app while we were waiting for a dining reservation or en route to a theme park.
I recommend buying
Memory Maker - Advance Purchase before your stay. When you purchase this option at least 3 days ahead of the activation date, you can enjoy a bit of a discount!
As you're counting down the days to your arrival, be sure that you have everyone in your party linked together through
Family & Friends on My Disney Experience. If you're having difficulty, check out the
How to Use My Disney Experience Family & Friends guide. And if you're STILL having difficulty, give the My Disney Experience Team a call at (407) 939-4357. I had trouble getting everyone in my party of 14 linked through Family & Friends and a Cast Member was able to manually connect everyone for me over the phone!
I hope this was helpful, Kathleen. Please let us know if you have any other questions about your Walt Disney World Resort vacation! We'd love to help you plan a magical stay.
