Living the Fairytale Life with
Belinda!!!!
There
is no better feeling than walking down Main Street at Magic Kingdom listening
to the sounds and taking in the sights of Cinderella’s Castle…. Unless of
course; you are sharing this moment with that special someone. I have been so
very blessed to spend all of my magical moments in Disney with an amazing
husband. The magic that the Disney parks brings to our life and our marriage is
some of the most memorable moments of our lives. One not need children to bring
out the childlike innocence and the magic that Disney creates. It’s all around
us at the Disney parks and at the end of the day when you exit; your hearts
will have connected in a way that only Disney can do. It’s purely magical!
These
are some of our favorite things to do while visiting the parks as a Disney
couple.
Magic Kingdom

The
Magic Kingdom Park to me screams romance from the moment Cinderella’s Castle is
in plain view. There are a few attractions at this park that always gives my
heart some extra gushiness and with my hubby right beside me, these moments are
priceless. If you’re at the Magic Kingdom Park in the evening, don’t miss
Wishes! A nighttime fireworks spectacular that brings tears to your eyes, joy
to your heart and simply takes your breath away!
Peter Pan's Flight

I
love this attraction! There is nothing like boarding Peter’s pirate ship for an
adventure to Never Land. The highlight of romance for this attraction and my
all-time favorite part is flying over London. Simply amazing! When you look
down below you get a nighttime view of the city twinkling with blue lights, it
is so beautiful. Keep your eyes on the lookout for the London Bridge and Big
Ben. This attraction tells the story of Peter Pan in a quick 3 minute adventure
that makes any romantic couple never want to grow up!

Where
do I begin…My Favorite 3-D attraction in all of Disneyworld! This show is
offered several times a day and is a must see for any Disney couple! With
music, special effects and some of Disney’s most popular animated films, this
attraction is priceless. Once you don your 3-D glasses get ready as Donald and
Mickey take you on an adventure for the eyes and ears. I have to admit, I have
never watched this show without shedding tears…Ok, so I let out a secret! Grab
your sweetheart as you fly with Jasmine and Aladdin to the sounds of A Whole
New World, dine in pure delight with Lumiere and Cogsworth and go under the sea
with Ariel, not to mention a few other surprises. The music itself puts a lump
in my throat; you get the feeling that you’re living the movies. It puts you
right in the middle of the magic and with the 3-D effect, you definitely feel
like you lived a fairytale. You won’t be disappointed by this attraction, and
if you’re like me…. Hide some tissues in your pocket.
Epcot

The
Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow! Epcot is another favorite on our
list of parks to spark the romance bug. This park is very interactive which is
good for couples. It brings people closer together by the interaction and
closeness of a lot of the attractions.
We
love World Showcase; it’s our favorite part of Epcot. What
could be more romantic than traveling the world sightseeing, eating and
shopping, all from one convenient location? Disney does this perfectly. Some of
our favorite countries to visit are Germany, Norway and Italy. All of these countries
have such great detail and are perfect for picture taking. If you’re like me;
…. You take pictures of everything.
Another
fun thing to do at Epcot is called, The What If Labs sponsored
by Kodak. These interaction stations are so much fun to do with that special
someone. Shawn and I always laugh until we cry with all the fun yet funny
things you can do! You can conduct an orchestra, step on stones to create music
and distort your body through a mirror, which can be some pretty silly fun. Our
favorites here are the photo booths where you can put your face into pretty
much anything. We never leave without a few giggles and some pictures that are
priceless. This is such a fun way for couples to interact, working together to
create magic and making photos that you’re sure to laugh about for years to
come!

If
you’re at World Showcase in the evening, be sure to stay for
Illuminations-Reflections of Earth! A nighttime show with lasers, fireworks,
music and fountains that presents the history of our planet in a breathtaking
way! Bring the tissues, this show is priceless.
Hollywood Studios

Welcome
to Hollywood! Take two! This Park is truly nostalgic and fitting for any Disney
couple. Step back to yesteryear as you walk Hollywood Boulevard taking in the
sights and sounds of movies and magic! Our all-time favorite Disney Princess
movie is Beauty and the Beast. It has kind of a personal meaning for Shawn and
me and so we as a Disney couple love seeing The Beauty and Beast live on stage
show. Ahhh… Be our Guest, Be our Guest, put our service to the test…..
Fantasmic
On
select nights at Hollywood Studios, be sure to stay for Fantasmic! A truly
awesome show filled with fireworks, lasers, fountains and lots of Disney
characters. This is a truly magical Disney show presented live and told by
Mickey himself. I remember the first time Shawn and I saw this show…. The music
started, my heart started to pound with excitement, Mickey appeared handsome as
ever, and then it happened, Mickey raised his arms while fire flared from his
fingertips! I realized then that I had tears streaming down my face, as I
looked over at Shawn, it was another magic moment when I knew we we’re meant
for each other because…. He had tears too.
Animal Kingdom

Venture
on a romantic getaway just like Tarzan and Jane as you enter the gates of
Animal Kingdom! Shawn and I think that the most romantic part of Animal Kingdom
is the surroundings itself. There is nothing like feeling as if your
spending the day in Africa or Asia with that special someone. We love the
outdoors and are huge animal lovers so this park truly engulfs the romance the
two of us share. We spend a lot of our time on the nature trails here.
They are unguided and are the perfect way for you to enjoy a romantic walk
through the lush landscape and winding paths to view birds and other small
exotic animals
One
must see for us at this park is the Festival of the Lion King Show. This is
another sentimental attraction for us as it has so much meaning. This
live show is now enclosed and features performers in animal costumes along with
singers draped in colorful African attire. There are also acrobatics’ and props
to help add to the live show. The music itself gets me every time; songs such
as; “Can you Feel the Love Tonight,” and “The Circle of Life” are
performed. We even named our Cat child we got a few years ago Simba.
Shawn got me one day when he called me in the living room and had Simba (our
cat child) held up to the ceiling singing The Circle of Life. It was such a
magical moment! This show is a must see for anyone that has love in their
heart, you may have to wait an hour or two but believe me… you won’t be
disappointed.
Romance
is everywhere in Disneyworld. From the moment you arrive, until the time you
leave, you are taken to a place that can only be created by Disney. My heart is
full of so many romantic memories that I have shared with my husband; from all
the laughs to all the tears, every year our journeys to the parks bring us
closer together. Sharing in the magic and the love at a place where dreams come
true. I hope that all of you get the opportunity to embrace the love and magic
that Disney has to offer with your special someone just as I have. It’s an
overwhelming feeling that will truly have your heart crying for more.
Keep
Believing

Yet another fantastic post Belinda, I love everything Disney it is all romantic as you say, my fav is Illuminations Reflections of Earth and then once that has finished it plays We Go On as you leave the park, we danced to this at our wedding so it is ULTRA romantic for us :-) and if we are at WDW rather than any other Locations on our Anniversary this is a must for us to view we normally watch our Anniversary show from Italy and then sing and cuddle as We Go On Plays (Soppy or what tee hee)
