Considering a wedding at Disneyland but not sure where to start? Let me help you!
Years ago, before I even met my now husband, I dreamed of getting married at Disneyland. It started when I saw a bride and groom in full wedding attire on the Monorail when I was a kid. I thought … wow, Disneyland is my favorite place AND you can have a wedding here?!? Amazing! I kept that dream with me over the years, and was so excited when we started planning and found a Disneyland wedding could be a reality for us.

How to Plan a Wedding at Disneyland
The absolute best place to start is to call the Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings office at the Disneyland Resort. Their number is (714) 520-7005. Here is how my experience went down (keep in mind this was 2011 and is subject to change):
1. I called the number and told the receptionist I was recently engaged and would like to find out more information about weddings at the Disneyland Resort. She took my email address and said she would email me a PDF brochure with some basic package and pricing information. She told me that if we were still interested in more information after reviewing the brochure, to call back and she would connect me to a Sales Coordinator. I received the PDF via email within minutes of hanging up the phone.
2. After reviewing the PDF, we decided a Disneyland wedding could be a possibility for us. I called back and told the receptionist that we had reviewed the brochure and would like additional information. I was told the next step would be to speak with a Sales Coordinator, but no one was available at the time. I would be placed into someone’s voicemail and I was warned it could be a couple days before I received a call back.
3. Within a couple hours, I received a call from Traci, who ended up being our assigned Sales Coordinator and Planner. We discussed the various package options listed in the brochure, and scheduled a site visit so we could meet Traci and look at the various ceremony and reception sites.
The next place to look is the Disney Fairy Tale Weddings website. The website offers pictures of the various ceremony locations, as well as decor samples. The website also offers some basic pricing information.
If you are getting some resistance from your family and friends about having a wedding at the Disneyland Resort, perhaps have them read over my post Myths About Disneyland Weddings. The post includes responses to some of the common questions I got about our own Disneyland wedding, and also includes some pretty pictures to show how beautiful a Disneyland Resort wedding can be.
