  • We decided to build our house nearby because we were going to Disney World monthly.

  • We rented a place to make sure we liked the area.

  • We got married at Disney and now I can watch the fireworks from our neighborhood.

When my husband and I moved in together, we built a house 15 minutes away from Disney World.

I can watch the Magic Kingdom fireworks from my house. I would not want it to be any different with our frequent visits to the parks.

After going to the parks monthly, we knew it was time to move to Orlando

We traveled to Disney World multiple times a month before we moved in, and I think you could call us Disney adults.

When we took that next step, we packed up everything we owned and moved to Florida instead of staying in our hometown.

We rented an apartment in Celebration, Florida to make sure we liked living in the Disney bubble for the first year.

We decided we wanted to plant more permanent roots. Windermere, Winter Garden, and Gotha are some of the top recommendations for nearby residential areas.

We had a custom home built behind Magic Kingdom because it was important for us to be no more than 15 minutes from the theme park.

Disney World is a huge part of our love story — we even got engaged and married there

We love sharing our experiences at the parks with other couples.Stephanie Machado

Disney is a big part of our story as a couple, and I wouldn't trade a second of it.

During the Magic Kingdom fireworks, I got my dream proposal at California Grill in the Contemporary Resort.

It made sense for us to plan a Disney wedding. Mickey Mouse attended my husband and I's wedding at the Four Seasons at Disney.

Some people say Disney is just for kids, and we have gotten a lot of flack for our love of the parks. We made beautiful connections there.

It is more than a theme park, it is a place filled with nostalgic memories, delicious food, and experiences.
