Katie & Michael: Destination Wedding at Disney's Sea Breeze Point
SeaBreaze Point | Disney Boardwalk | Florida
From Chicago to Orlando they came. With purple and pink flower petals. With a quick hello from Donald and Daisy Duck. A violinist was playing songs from my childhood on repeat and I found myself humming, “A whole new world…” as I heard the shutter clicks and I realized how much I wanted to watch the movie, Aladdin. Too bad I only have it on VHS. We don’t have a VHS player. (Do they still make VHS players?)
Seriously though, when I think of my childhood, I think of Disney movies. I had (have) them memorized. Prince Charming (Or Prince Eric, he was my favorite) and a doe-eyed girl. A damsel in distress or a strong-willed princess (Work it Jasmine!) Disney was a big part of my formative years. So it’s fun, now, to see it come full circle. From imaginary childhood worlds, to this romantic and magical day when two new friends become one and we get to capture it for the ages. One day, their grandchildren will look through these images. They will laugh at how old the fashions look and will say “Grandma, you were hot!” and they’ll giggle. A little girl will swoon and say “Grandpa, it’s soooo romantic!” And then maybe they’ll ask to watch Cinderella, because Disney is now on their brains. And a new generation of dreamers and lovers of love will begin to grow.
Donald cracks me up in this one…
