The Disney World Diaries

Hey Everyone! So even though weddings may not be everyone’s favorite subject/interest, it is something I wanted to include here as sort of featured topic every few months. A Disney wedding is certainly special and magical, so even if you’re just here for reading about rides and food just try to bare with me and stick around! Before I get into logistics about how to have a Disney Wedding and go over what the site visit is and what it includes, I want to give a little information on us. Kyle and I got engaged at Magic Kingdom in June of 2017. The funny thing is that we (and by we I really mean I) have been dreaming of and planning our Disney Wedding since our first trip as a couple almost four years ago. I had already decided on the venue, time of year, and approximate guest count long before Kyle even thought about popping the question. When he proposed, I had already known about how Disney wedding planning timelines worked, so we selected November 2019 as the month for our weddi...

Last month during my visit to Walt Disney World, I finally got the opportunity to visit Wine Bar George. My fiancé’s family has sort of converted me into an avid wine drinker over the past several years, so this has been a restaurant I have been dying to try since it was announced. When I am not in Disney World, a lot of my time is spent drinking wine and eating lots of cheese, so I knew that this was going to be the kind of place that I would enjoy. Many of the cast members that we spoke with actually said that it is where they go on the weekends to meet with friends or other cast members.  One day out of our trip, my fiancé and I headed down to Disney Springs with the intention of trying it out. When we walked up to Wine Bar George, we could tell it was extremely packed, especially considering it was only around 3 or 4 in the afternoon. Two very polite hostesses outside greeted us and informed us that there were not tables available inside at the moment but we were free ...

Obviously this may not be everyone's cup of tea, but as a twenty-something with no children, one of my favorite things to do in Walt Disney World is to enjoy the different alcoholic beverages around the parks and resorts. Considering the massive size of Walt Disney World, you can imagine that I had a very difficult time narrowing my selections down to 5 drinks. When narrowing down my choices I tried to select drinks that are not seasonal or temporary, are unique to Disney, and taste amazing on a scorching hot Florida day. So without further ado, here are my 5 go-to adult beverages (in no particular order): 1. Orange Slush, Les Vins des Chefs de France- EPCOT. You can tell the drink is that good because I couldn't resist chugging it before taking a picture! You can find this extremely popular slush across from the Chefs de France restaurant in the France Pavilion in Epcot. This heavenly frozen cocktail is made with Grand Marnier and Grey Goose Vodka, and tastes lik...
