We’ve seen weddings decked out in Disney details, however we lastly received to converse with a bride who received married at the Most Magical Place on Earth. And it will get even higher – newlyweds Taylor Drane and Tyler Norman get to share their massive day with thousands and thousands of viewers on Freeform’s Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings. Airing on Sunday, May 7 (at 8/7 Central), the 90-minute particular will characteristic three {couples}, together with Taylor and Tyler and their full marriage ceremony. Spoiler: Tying the knot at Walt Disney World is as unimaginable as you’d think about.
Before getting married, the 2 dated for about seven years starting the Summer earlier than faculty. They met at the nation membership the place they each labored as pool servers and determined to begin relationship a number of weeks earlier than leaving for his or her separate faculties. Their fling naturally shaped right into a relationship as soon as they each realized they did not need to be with anybody else. The distance between them over time wasn’t sufficient to hold them aside, and as soon as they received engaged, she instantly booked an appointment with Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings. When I requested whether or not her now-husband is as massive of a Disney fan as she is, Taylor laughed. “He will admit that he never ever predicted getting married at Disney World,” she mentioned. But as a result of the 2 had been born in Florida, they’d visited the parks loads of instances aside and collectively earlier than the thought of a Disney marriage ceremony even got here up. “I would obviously hint at it and he’d be like ‘OK.'”
While they did not head into their first assembly with Disney having any expectations, Tyler ended up being bought on how low-maintenance all the course of can be. “He really liked how it could reduce the stress of planning a wedding and the idea of coming down for a day to plan a wedding from beginning to end,” she mentioned. “It was really nice; we went down six or seven months before our wedding and we had our tasting that morning, and that afternoon for about three hours, we planned our whole wedding. And the day was fun!” Taylor mentioned. A one-and-done planning course of? Heck, I’m even contemplating having a Disney marriage ceremony now. And for the remaining months main up to your nuptials, you merely iron out minor particulars over electronic mail. Unsurprisingly (it is Disney in spite of everything), Taylor shared how wonderful and useful Disney’s Fairy Tale Wedding planners are. “They stick with your budget and they tell you the truth, and let you know this is what you can get for what you want to spend,” she mentioned. “You walk out of your planning session even more sure that you made the right decision.”
“Some of the details at my wedding I didn’t know were possible; it exceeded my wildest dreams, really. It could not have been a more perfect wedding.”
Taylor had all the time dreamed of getting a Disney marriage ceremony, particularly throughout Christmastime. Their ceremony was held at Epcot whereas the occasion continued with a reception at the Atlantic Dance Hall alongside the boardwalk. She wished her marriage ceremony to spotlight the attractive vacation decorations that adorned the park, so she did not need to take away from its magnificence with any extra particular touches. “Growing up, [Christmas] was my favorite time of year and was what made me fall in love with Disney,” Taylor mentioned.
Though the marriage planning course of was surprisingly not annoying within the slightest, they couple did determine final minute that they wished to embrace a choreographed dance. So, every week earlier than their marriage ceremony, they met with a choreographer in Orlando who saved the day with a enjoyable routine to the Bee Gees. Their reception nonetheless featured the extra conventional father-daughter and mother-son dances, and after the couple completed their first dance as a married pair, the 2 received down and received their friends pumped. While Taylor admitted that neither her nor Tyler are skilled dancers, she mentioned that they love dancing and wished to revolve their marriage ceremony round it. Their choreographed quantity served to open up the dance ground to the remainder of their friends.
Now, their marriage ceremony wasn’t only a half-day occasion like your typical marriage ceremony. Their friends arrived the Friday earlier than their Monday nuptials, which gave everybody all the weekend to totally benefit from the parks collectively. “We basically did a pub crawl around Epcot,” Taylor mentioned. “If somebody wanted a margarita, we went to Mexico, or got a beer from Germany. I didn’t realize my wedding was going to be a three-day celebration, but I kind of hoped it would be that way.” The bride’s favourite a part of her complete expertise? Her magical portrait session earlier than the park opened to the general public (see the photos here). Oh, and he or she was sporting the live-action Cinderella robe from Alfred Angelo’s official Disney Fairy Tale Wedding assortment.
“It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience because here you are in your most favorite dress, with your husband, and you’re taking pictures in front of Cinderella’s castle with the sun beginning to rise, and it’s just surreal,” she mentioned.
If you could have any remaining doubts about getting married at Disney World, do not. When I requested if her expertise was as magical as we would all anticipate, she answered, “I would say it was more because everything went so smoothly. I was anxious right before they opened the doors, but that was it. Once they opened the doors and I saw Tyler, all the anxious energy went away, the little that I had. I would say I was expecting it to be supergreat and magical, but because there wasn’t that much stress, I was able to live in the moment and be as happy as I could be.”
