Disney World Romance

Plans That Turn Up The Romance

Over Off to Neverland Travel’sยฎย five year history, ourย Magic Makersยฎย have become known for planning some amazingly whimsical vacations. From first to fiftieth visit, birthday to graduation, ourย Magic Makersยฎย love working with you to make each and every trip your “DreamDSCF0067e get to plan something special for Lovebirds as the romantic side of Disney Destinations is something that often gets overlooked. In honor of Valentine’s Day, we asked our Magic Makersยฎย to share with us some of their past plans and suggestions they’ve given clients looking for romance on their getaways.

Dinner for two at one of ย Walt Disney Worldยฎย Resort’s restaurants may be the easiest way to add romance into your trip.ย Magic Makerยฎย Katie Simmons suggests selecting a restaurant with a view and then timing your dinner around that night’s showing ofย Wishesย orย IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth.ย Whileย Narcoossee’s atย Disneyโ€™s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is her favorite, many other restaurants overlooking the Seven Seas and World Showcase Lagoons are available. And for dessert,ย Magic Makerยฎย Courtney Agnello suggests you call ahead and place a special preorder – maybe even the flavor of your wedding cake to celebrate your anniversary!

The fun doesn’t have to stop with dinner!ย Magic Makerยฎ Allie Willits often directs those looking for a “night on the town” to Jellyrolls, a lively dueling piano bar on Disney’s Boardwalk.ย ย Downtown Disneyยฎ Pleasure Islandย and West Sideย also offer a variety of nightlife with live performers nightly. Your children can have a “night out” too in one of theย Children’s Activity Centers located at select Resort hotels!

Booking a specialty fireworks cruise is at the top of the list of romantic suggestions forย Magic Makerยฎย Courtney Harris. Cruises are available most nights for bothย Wishesย andย IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth. For a different perspective of ย Wishes, try watching it from a hammock on the beach atย Disneyโ€™s Polynesian Resort – complete with soundtrack! Or for a quieter evening,ย Magic Makerยฎย Heather Straight recommends a horse-drawn carriage ride atย Disneyโ€™s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside orย Disneyโ€™s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground.

No vacation is complete without aย souvenir, butย Magic Makerยฎย Sharon Rosenlieb has a tip for a keepsake much more memorable. She suggests a stop at one of theย Wyland Galleries.ย With locations atย Disney’s Boardwalk andย Disneyโ€™s Polynesian Resort,ย they offer a great selection of custom made jewelry.

Last but not least, asย home to some of the worldโ€™s most famous romances: Cinderella and Prince Charming, Lady and the Tramp, and even Beauty and the Beast – we would be remiss to not mention engagements!ย Magic Makerยฎย Marcie Munoz shares of a magical proposal at the Walt Disney Worldยฎย Resort.ย A character artists in Magic Kingdomยฎ Park was asked in advanceย to draw a portrait of the couple, but the soon-to-beย fianceeย was shocked when the completed portrait was revealed and he was on his knee proposing. Just as illustrated, he proposed and she said YES!

Our list could go on and on as the possibilities are nearly endless! Whether you choose a moonlit stroll, a luxurious spa treatment, or ย an intimate dinner at your next Disney Destination,ย our Magic Makersยฎย  can make any day feel like Valentineโ€™s Day!

At both Disneyโ€™s Port Orleans Resort- Riverside and Disneyโ€™s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground, couples can enjoy a 25 minute horse-drawn carriage ride around the property.ย  During the month of December, the carriages at Disneyโ€™s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground are transformed into โ€œsleighsโ€ that travel around the campgrounds viewing the stunning light displays set up by campers.

For couples wishing to splurge, fireworks cruises can be booked that provide them with their own private pontoon boat and driver, from which they can view either IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth at Epcotยฎ or Wishes fireworks show at Magic Kingdomยฎ Park.ย  For an extra fee, the audio from the show can even be piped into the boat.ย  While water, soda, and snacks are provided as part of the package, those wishing to enjoy a romantic meal or dessert may preorder private dining to be delivered to the boat before it departs. Wine and specialty cakes can also be ordered to enjoy while on the cruise.

California GrillCouples wishing to enjoy a romantic meal can make dinner reservations at one of the signature dining restaurants on property, such as the California Grill or Jiko: The Cooking Place.ย  The dim lighting and quiet setting of these locations combine to create a romantic atmosphere perfect for couples seeking a nice meal together.ย  Specialty cakes can also be ordered at these locations, along with romantic desserts such as chocolate covered strawberries.ย  For couples wishing to enjoy a night-in, private dining will bring the romance to them by delivering directly to the room.

There are many other activities on property for couples to enjoy such as getting a massage together, renting a private pool cabana, parasailing, bicycling, or booking a behind-the-scenes tour. The list is endless!ย  While all of these activities require advance booking and have an associated fee, there are many romantic activities that couples can enjoy for free!ย  Just one example is watching Wishes from a hammock on the beach of Disneyโ€™s Polynesian Resort.ย  Audio is piped onto the beach so you can enjoy the beauty of the fireworks without fighting the crowds on Main Street, U.S.A.ยฎ Area.ย  Some other free activities include searching for hidden Mickeys, taking a stroll around the Disneyโ€™s Boardwalk, or just walking hand in hand around your resort hotel.ย  Most of the hotels have very elaborate theming in order to immerse you in a particular time period or setting.

If you have been craving some alone time with your significant other, but always thought the Walt Disney Worldยฎ Resort was โ€œjust for kidsโ€, contact your Off to Neverlandยฎ Magic Makerโ„ข today to learn more about these activities, along with countless other tips for making your vacation the romantic getaway of your dreams!
