DisneyWorld , Florida

Disney is all about dreams. Even better, it is about dreams with happy endings! "When you wish upon a star", as the song goes, there is the hope and expectation that marvelous things will happen. When Walt Disney designed the Magic Kingdom, it was with this in mind, and the result is far beyond what was anticipated. As soon as Disneyworld opened in the 1960s, families flocked to its gates. Their children and grandchildren have followed year by year in ever greater numbers.

What is the most exciting and memorable experience you can envision? Is it looking out your hotel window across the plains of Africa and watching a giraffe gracefully loping along? Or do you see in you mind's eye the cloudless, blue Florida sky from which the sun will rise on your wedding day? Disney weddings are at the pinnacle of perfection. The couple arrives at the wedding chapel in a Rolls Royce, attended by a footman. Following the ceremony, a reception may be held in one of the gardens or in a tastefully appointed dining room with a musical ensemble (or a DJ) providing the entertainment. There is the option of choosing to have dessert in another country, as the wedding party adjourns to their chosen destination at Epcot.

Recently, a couple who work in a London hospital dined with their wedding guests at the Grand Floridian and then traveled to the British sector of Epcot for tea and cakes, followed by the all American fireworks display on the lake.

Whatever your hopes and dreams, chances are they can be realized while vacationing in this wonderland of possibilities.
