The Best Spots to Enjoy Wedding Cake Samples at Walt Disney World
Planning a wedding at Walt Disney World is a dream come true, and sampling your wedding cake is one of the sweetest parts of the journey. To make the experience even more magical, why not enjoy your cake samples in some of the most picturesque spots in the park? Here are our top five recommendations for the best views and photo opportunities while tasting your wedding cake samples.
1. Magic Kingdom's Cinderella Castle Forecourt
For those that love the fantasy of the Magic Kingdom, there's no place more iconic than in front of Cinderella Castle. The majestic backdrop of the castle adds a fairy tale touch to your cake sampling experience. Find a cozy spot near the gardens or the charming benches, and let the magic of the castle elevate your tasting. The photos taken here will be timeless treasures, capturing the essence of your Disney-themed wedding.
2. Epcot's World Pavilions
For our world travelers that have Epcot as their favorite park, Epcot’s World Showcase offers a variety of enchanting backdrops for your cake sampling. Whether you prefer the romantic ambiance of Italy, the tranquil gardens of Japan, or the vibrant marketplaces of Morocco, each pavilion provides unique and picturesque settings. Enjoy your cake samples by the Venetian-style bridges in Italy, under the cherry blossoms in Japan, or amidst the intricate tiles and fountains of Morocco. These diverse locations will not only enhance your tasting experience but also provide a range of stunning photo opportunities.
3. Animal Kingdom's Nomad Lounge
If you’re looking for something a bit more adventurous, try your cake samples at the Nomad Lounge in Animal Kingdom. Nestled alongside the Discovery River, this spot offers a lush, exotic atmosphere with comfortable seating areas perfect for a relaxed tasting session. The lounge's vibrant decor and the surrounding greenery provide a unique and captivating setting for your photos, giving them a wild and natural beauty.
4. Hollywood Studios' Echo Lake
For those that like a classic Hollywood vibe, head to Echo Lake in Hollywood Studios. This picturesque spot, with its retro ambiance and charming waterfront views, provides a fun and nostalgic setting for your cake tasting. The iconic Gertie the Dinosaur and vintage-style buildings create a unique backdrop that adds a touch of Hollywood glamor to your photos.
5. Disney's on property Resorts
Maybe you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the packed parks to sample your future wedding cake. Everyone has their favorites, but here are two recommendations we love. For a luxurious and serene setting, head to the Marina at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Overlooking the glistening Seven Seas Lagoon with Cinderella Castle in the distance, this spot is perfect for an elegant cake tasting experience. Alternatively, take a short stroll to Sunset Point at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort. This secluded spot offers panoramic views of the lagoon and Magic Kingdom, especially magical during sunset. The combination of Victorian charm and tropical ambiance creates an enchanting backdrop for your tasting and photos.
