Evening Activities Outside the Theme Parks

Not only can touring theme parks all day be exhausting, but in the off-season, the parks sometimes close earlier as well. Having a game plan for those evenings can be crucial! Here are a few of our favorite ways to spend an evening outside the theme parks. Disney Springs - Dinner or Dessert Disney Springs has really upped its food game in the last several years. You can find a wide variety here, from fine dining to quick service and even food trucks. Honestly, I’ve liked almost everything I’ve tried. This is a great option to mix it up and get a meal at a more leisurely pace since you won’t be running to the next attraction afterward. Many dining options even boast celebrity chefs, great for a foodie like me. Some of my favorites include Morimoto Asia or Paddlefish for a nice dinner (and they both have great lounge/bar areas as well!). T-Rex is also a huge hit for families with dinosaur fans, but the meteor strike can be a little loud and scary for younger kids. The Polite Pig is great...

Disney Fairytale Wedding Experience

Have you always dreamed about being a Disney Prince or Princess for the day?  Well, Disney makes that possible through Disney's Fairytale Weddings where you can plan a wedding or vow renewal with that little extra magic that only Disney can provide.   After getting engaged in Epcot, we always knew a Disney Fairytale Wedding was for us.  We started narrowing down options of where and when shortly after getting engaged, and reached out to Disney a little over a year before our preferred date, as they only start booking 12 months in advance.  As locations are very popular, we had to let them know our top three choices of locations or dates and times.  The date was important to us, so we had backup locations instead of backup dates.  There were three other couples that wanted our date and location, so we were entered into a lottery, and as luck would have it, we won our first choice!  View our guests had for Epcot's fireworks I spent the next six mont...
