Yet another great wedding add on by WDW is a personal dessert party for the bride, groom and guests. For a fee of $22 a person you and your guests can choose between an Illuminations dessert party at Epcot or a Fantasmic one at Hollywood Studios.. I’m gathering that this might be best for a more intimate crowd and also a great way to celebrate a vow renewal or anniversary.
What you get…
- For an IllumiNations Dessert Party, your group is admitted to Epcot at about 8:30 pm. IllumiNations starts at 9:00 pm and runs about 12 minutes. Your event concludes about 9:30 pm. During the party, your guests will enjoy a buffet of yummy desserts and non alcoholic drinks. Alcoholic beverages can be added on for a higher price
- For a Fantasmic Dessert Party, your group is admitted to Hollywood Studios at about 30 minutes before the park closes. The show usually starts around the time of “official” park closing and runs about 25 minutes. Your event concludes about 30 minutes after the show ends. During the party, your guests will enjoy a buffet desserts and again, nonalcoholic drinks.
I have been trying to find more info on the official wedding site to make sure that all pricing is up to date and accurate, but it hasn’t been easy. It’s always best to talk to your wedding coordinator..we’re just here to give you all the best ideas!
