I thought that some of you may be interested in this. Just Marry!, the Swan and Dolphin's preferred wedding planners, now offer proposal planning. Another former Swan bride who now works for Just Marry! shared this video of a proposal she helped plan: It's very pretty and romantic if...

So, it looks like the space currently housing Kouzzina will become yet another Italian restaurant. That's a little disappointing. http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2014/07/first-peek-at-trattoria-al-forno-new-restaurant-for-disneys-boardwalk/ Trattoria al Forno will showcase dishes from...

This was a great story about a little boy who learned to communicate again through Disney films. I can't even count the number of times I said "wow" while reading this. So amazing. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/09/magazine/reaching-my-autistic-son-through-disney.html

Hi guys! I just wanted to let you know that I did an interview with Carrie Hayward, owner of the Disney Weddings Podcast this week. We only briefly talked about my wedding; the episode is mainly about how to preserve and display wedding photos. It's something that I thought might interest...

I knew that food trucks were part of the Disney Springs plans, but I was surprised by what was announced on the Disney Parks Blog this morning. It looks like these food trucks won't feature street food from local vendors, but will be owned and operated by Disney. Doesn't that just make them...

Who's doing the Jingle Jungle 5k this year? Who's done it before? This will be my first runDisney event, and I'm not sure what to expect. Are there characters along the route? I don't know if Disney does that for the fun runs or just for the longer races. If so, which characters? Do people...

AllEars and DFB have confirmed that one of the new Festival Marketplace booths at this year's Epcot International Food & Wine Festival will be a Scotland booth. There's no word on what food items will be offered, but beer, mead and Scotch are all on the menu. A fan of Speyside and Highland...

EDIT: All our reservations are made! Our dining schedule is below. I'm plagiarizing this post from my wedding planning thread, but simplifying it so that it's tailored more to the dining schedule. What do you think of our plans? Saturday, November 2nd Dinner at Olivia's. Sunday, November...

Today Drinking Disney shared a photo of La Cava del Tequila's newest offering, a horchata margarita! I'm really excited about this, and not just for the drink itself. The idea of horchata liqueur and cinnamon does appeal to me, but I also hope this means that the San Angel Inn will have...

Hi all! I didn't think I was going to start a thread like this, but now that the wedding date is getting closer, @pugmalion1 and I are becoming increasingly excited about our upcoming nuptials and Walt Disney World honeymoon. I just want to share! On November 5th, we'll be tying the knot at...

How closely do you follow this old adage when it comes to dining, particularly in Walt Disney World? Do you stick to the house specialties or go for whatever strikes your fancy? I definitely tend to order fish at seafood restaurants, steak at steakhouses and so forth. Sometimes I think this...

It may be early, but I'm already looking forward to it. We're in the midst of planning our wedding at the Swan and will be staying 11/2-11/16 at Old Key West for our honeymoon! I'm excited not only to be returning to the Most Magical Place on Earth, but to be going for such a special occasion...

Hi guys! Our cab should be here to pick us up for the airport in about an hour. I'm anxious to hit the road, so I thought I'd pass the time by starting a trip report of sorts. I'll do a few updates when we have downtime on what I expect will be a very leisurely-paced vacation. I guess anyone...

This will likely mark the end of my lauding this restaurant. Sounds like they're going for another "2 points but not really signature" dining experience like Le Cellier. http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2012/08/major-makeover-for-the-france-pavilion-at-epcot Jerome Bocuse: It’s all new...

We spent a bit of time last night shaping a general itinerary for our next Disney World vacation and we made some dining reservations as well. I'm happy that we'll be trying a few places that are new to us. We have dinner reservations for Olivia's (we've previously only been for breakfast)...

The Gurgling Suitcase seems to be one of the least talked-about WDW resort lounges, but when I do hear about it, the talk is always positive. I'd like to make my way over there on our next visit. For those who have been there, what sort of drinks and appetizers do they serve? I've heard that...

I have no real questions here. I just wanted to share because I'm at the 180 day mark which may not mean much to people in my everyday life but other World travelers will understand the excitement. :) Danny and I arrive the first of November for four nights at the Boardwalk Villas, which...

Howdy, fellow World travelers! I've just returned from a fantastic Disney vacation and thought I'd dive right in to my very first trip report. In posts to come, you'll see a few photos and read all about the anomalous cold, some belated Christmas decorations, our trying new things and our...

I should probably introduce myself, since I'm pretty new here. I'm Melissa. I'm 24, and I'm a California girl who's been transplanted to New Jersey, where I live with my boyfriend, Danny. Danny grew up in Central Florida and is a seasoned veteran of Disney World, but this will be only my...
