8 Places You Should NEVER Propose in Disney World


Recommended Posts

Let’s face it, Disney World is practically dripping with romance!

Cinderella Caste

Cinderella’s Castle, fireworks lighting up the night sky, sharing a Dole Whip (Don’t judge! It’s true love!). The magic is so palpable that it’s practically begging you to pop the question. But hold your Mickey ears, lovebirds, because not every spot is a fairytale dream come true. Let’s go over a list of the absolute worst (or maybe the absolute funniest?) places to pop the question!

Here are eight places you should definitely steer clear of if you want your proposal to be more fairy tale and less epic fail.

During a Character Meet and Greet

Sure, getting a hug from Mickey is a dream come true, but proposing while he’s mid-squeeze with your fiancé? Not so much.

Mickey!

Here’s another fun fact — Disney characters aren’t supposed to be in any proposal-related pictures (it’s against the rules!), so save the proposal for AFTER that Mickey hug.

On a Ride

While the g-forces might be strong on your favorite ride, it might not be the most romantic setting.

Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster

Can you imagine fumbling the ring while screaming “Will you…” while literally upside down? Unless your partner thrives on chaos (and potential nausea), go ahead and save the proposal for solid ground. Retrieving a lost diamond ring from a theme park roller coaster track is NOT the way to go.

In Front of a Long Line

As you know, sometimes the lines at Disney World can get pretty legendary. Trapping your partner between a sweaty family of eight and a grumpy teenager for an hour-long wait is not exactly setting the best mood.

Long lines

You’ll probably want to find a more relaxing spot where “happily ever after” doesn’t involve inching forward for the next 45 minutes. But don’t worry, we do have some GOOD ideas for you, too. Click below for our ultimate guide to proposing at Disney World!

Nearby Loud Attractions

Now, they might say “yes,” but will they hear you over the banshee wails coming from the nearby Expedition Everest coaster?

Maybe find a spot with a more romantic “soundtrack” (think fireworks, not terrified screams).

In the Middle of a Parade Route

Imagine your magical moment getting interrupted by a giant float shaped like Maleficent.

Unless your partner worships Maleficent, you might want to avoid the parade entirely and propose somewhere you can focus on each other, not the parade chaos.

In a Busy Gift Shop

Disney has some pretty awesome souvenirs, but a ring surrounded by Disney character plushes might not be the most memorable proposal. Unless you both happened to work in a Disney World gift shop and want to preserve the memory, we don’t recommend a crowded store as a proposal location.

Like we said, unless your partner specifically requested it, you might want to find a more unique backdrop for your big question than a sea of Disney merch.

At the Food Court

Disney food is delicious and all, but a greasy hot dog and a proposal don’t exactly scream “romance.”

Connections Eatery

You’re going to want to find a more intimate setting for this special moment because the only thing worse than a lukewarm churro is a lukewarm “maybe.”

Restrooms or Near Trash Cans (We Shouldn’t Even Have to Say This, But…)

Okay, so this one’s a gimme. Let’s just all agree that happily ever after doesn’t start in the restroom or next to overflowing bins.
