    #759 Christina & Dylan's Grand Floridian Wedding

    Disney World wedding planning gets personal in this real Disney wedding story from Christina Rowe, who planned an intimate Walt Disney World wedding with her ceremony at the Wedding Pavilion, reception at the Whitehall Room & Patio, and welcome party at the Grand Floridian Marina. Christina shares how she chose her Disney wedding venues, why she changed her reception from St. Augustine Hall back to the remodeled Whitehall Room, and how she planned a beautiful celebration for just 16–18 guests. She also talks about getting ready together at the Grand Floridian, choosing photography and a content creator as major priorities, bringing her own real-touch flowers to Disney, and saving money with DIY décor. One of the highlights of the day was a visit from Marie from The Aristocats! Christina also shares details about her lavender wedding cake, custom Aristocats macarons, mimosa bar, Korean barbecue mushroom bao buns from Nomad Lounge, and the special Star Cruiser-inspired cake pops served at the welcome party. Plus, she gets candid about what went wrong—including a missing floral installation, a nearly incorrect dance floor, unexpectedly hot weather, and an important lesson about whether your wedding vendors will actually be allowed to eat the food you've counted them for. If you're planning a Disney World wedding or vow renewal, Christina's experience offers practical advice about choosing venues, budgeting, outside vendors, décor, entertainment, photography, food, and making the most of an intimate Disney wedding.

    #756 Jake & Georgia's Italy Isola Wedding

    A Disney World wedding with EPCOT fireworks, a 7:30 p.m. ceremony, a reception at Italy Isola, and a dance party featuring High School Musical, Hannah Montana AND Taylor Swift? Yes, please! ✨💍🎆 In this episode of the Disney Wedding Podcast, Jake and Georgia Juren share all the details of their Walt Disney World wedding—from the moment they fell in love with the Wedding Pavilion to choosing Italy Isola for their reception because it was both budget-friendly AND the location of their first date. Their wedding day was anything but ordinary! They planned a late ceremony so they could watch the EPCOT fireworks, squeezed in their first look and wedding portraits beforehand, customized their reception menu with favorites from around Walt Disney World, and turned their Italy Isola reception into a full-on Disney dance party. They also share some incredibly useful Disney wedding planning advice, including how they handled their guest count dropping from about 50 to 33, where they chose to spend—and save—their budget, why they skipped ceremony flowers, what happened when Disney scheduled an After Hours event on their wedding night, and what they would do differently if they could plan it all over again. And if you're considering a Disney World wedding yourself, Georgia and Jake have some excellent advice about going into the planning process prepared, managing the 12-month booking window, and remembering to actually EAT on your wedding day! 😂 View photos and full details from this Disney wedding here: https://disneyweddingpodcast.com/jake-georgias-italy-isola-wedding/ And click here to start planning your own Disney World wedding with the Fairytale Weddings Guide: https://fairytaleweddingsguide.com/shop/fairytale-weddings-guide/ #DisneyWedding #WaltDisneyWorldWedding #ItalyIsolaWedding #DisneyWeddingPlanning #DisneyWeddingPodcast #DisneyWeddingVlog #EPCOTWedding #DisneyWeddingInspiration
