Picture of Directions from a Disney Owned and Operated On-Site Resort to the Ceremony

If you choose to stay at a resort outside of our room block, please be aware that Disney does not have direct transportation between resort hotels. These directions include the most direct ways to get to Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa for the wedding ceremony and reception location. However, Disney World transportation is known to have an erratic schedule due to crowd levels and traffic, so it is suggested that you leave at least between 12:00pm-12:30pm before the ceremony to arrive on time. If you have extra time prior to the ceremony, enjoy the Grand Floridan’s gorgeous lobby and grounds or grab a drink at Mizner’s Lounge (opens at 1:00pm) and get the party started!


  • Take Disney Transportation from your resort (i.e. bus, Monorail, or watercraft transportation) to the Magic Kingdom Park.
  • At the Magic Kingdom Park, transfer to the Walt Disney World Resort Monorail or watercraft transportation that is heading towards the Grand Floridian Resort.
  • Please note, there are two monorail lines (an express that goes to the Transportation and Ticket Center as well as a Resort line), please take the Resort Line if using the monorail.
  • There are also two forms of boat transportation (a ferry that goes directly to the Transportation and Ticket Center as well as smaller boats that service the 3 resorts on the lake), please take the smaller resort boats if using boat travel.
  • Go to Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa (4th stop on the Monorail from Magic Kingdom Park; 1st stop via watercraft transportation from Magic Kingdom Park).

Transportation Alternatives to the Ceremony or After-Hours

Picture of Transportation Alternatives to the Ceremony or After-Hours

If you do not have a car and Disney Transportation has ended for the night, we would recommend you download and use the Uber and/or Lyft apps on your smartphone (available for Android or iPhone). If you are not familiar, both of these services are like taxis that will come directly to your location and take you wherever you need to go. The prices for rides taken through the apps are also significantly cheaper than using the standard Mears Taxis available in the Orlando area.

Minnie Van™ Service

Disney has partnered with Lyft to provide their own personal ride service running from 6:30am-12:30am daily, which can be accessed through the Lyft App. This service operates similarly to Lyft with distance based pricing and can accommodate up to six guests per trip.
