Hello and welcome to planDisney, Brihana. You know what they say, "A picture is worth a thousand words." I can't think of a more idyllic setting than the Disneyland Hotel to look back on this magical time in your life.
You are as welcome as can be to bring your own camera to the Disneyland Hotel to snap some engagement photos. There are
Disneyland Resort Rules that you'll want to keep in mind. For example, included in the list of prohibited activities is "Photography, videotaping or recording of any kind, or otherwise engaging in any activity, for unapproved commercial purposes." You should also be mindful of not blocking any areas or pathways while taking your photos, as well as being aware of areas that may only be available to registered hotel guests, like the pool area. If you're looking for a quiet spot, I recommend heading down the path between the Adventure Tower and Frontier Tower where you'll find the
Adventure Lawn Gazebo.
While you're at the hotel, you might want to stop into the
small world Gifts & Sundries for any magical touches (like a personalized set of ears) that you'd like to incorporate into your photos. You can also ask the Cast Member here or at the front desk of the hotel for a complimentary "Happily Ever After" button. And when you're done documenting part of your love story, I recommend heading to
Tangaroa Terrace Tropical Bar & Grill for some tasty eats and treats before you head out.
Brihana, I hope this is helpful and gives you some peace of mind as you plan for your upcoming adventure. Love is in the air and I can't wait for you to capture all of the magical moments to last a lifetime. Come back to visit us with any other questions you might think of. Here's to you and your happily ever after!
Michelle
