Question

Will there be accommodation options available for out-of-town guests?

Answer

We have room blocks at these resorts: Moderate Tier: Port Orleans - Riverside Moderate Tier: Port Orleans - French Quarter Book here: https://book.passkey.com/event/50789091/owner/70576/home Please note, if you want to book a package to include park tickets, it won’t count towards the room block and that’s ok! You can stay wherever you would like, but you will need transportation to Port Orleans. We recommend Disney springs hotels. These hotels are in walking distance of Disney springs and from there, you can find a bus to the lobby of our resort or take the boat ride to the dock. Other hotels will require renting a car or getting an uber to our hotel. Recommended hotel for off property stays: Drury at Disney springs www.Disneyspringshotels.com

Question

Answer

We will primarily be utilizing Disney resort transportation. This may change and we will send updates if it does! We recommend staying at the ceremony resort to make travel just a quick walk, however if you are staying at a different resort or off property please check the following schedule: GUESTS: Please arrive to port Orleans by 4p to get some photos with friends/family before the ceremony. BRIDESMAIDS: Please arrive by 10a for hair & makeup. Older teens will supervise younger children. Bring swimsuits for them if pool day is available for kids. Hotel has life jackets if desired. GROOMSMEN: Arrival time TBD. A barber trip might be arranged for the morning. After the ceremony: guests not wanting to be in photo and staying at port Orleans will have a chance to change clothes, all non photo guests will have a chance to grab snacks from the food court if you can’t make it to 8p without hanger. Please if you choose this option, head to the bus depot to get on a bus by 7:15p to go to Epcot and meet a guide. They will escort us like VIP to Germany promenade A&B. The bridal party and anyone who wants to be in photos will head to Disney springs at 6p to get a connecting bus to Boardwalk. From Boardwalk we will get photos around the resort and on the boardwalk before walking to international gateway to meet our guide. They will escort us like VIP to Germany promenade A&B.
