By: Heather Honestly, I didn’t plan to admit to all of you, the incredible Disney community, that I wore what I did at the DVC Moonlight Magic 2020 event in Animal Kingdom this January. However, Koda and Kenai from Brother Bear had such fun with my unexpected ensemble that I decided I had to share. I’m embarrassed, but it’s okay…we’re all friends here, right? I hope you enjoy this super playful meet and greet, and we invite you to check out our recent post for a rundown of what to expect at Moonlight Magic events including an overview of the Animal Kingdom specific offerings as well as a…

Meeting Jiminy Cricket at DVC Moonlight Magic 2020
What a fun surprise! We were thrilled to discover that Jiminy Cricket was holding an unannounced character meet and greet at the DVC Moonlight Magic event in Animal Kingdom earlier this year. He’s so rarely out in the parks that his inclusion was a fantastic bonus to an already stellar lineup for the party! We hope you enjoy our brief interaction in the video below and his entertaining response to the an admittedly odd question. Also, we invite you to check out our blog post on DVC Moonlight Magic 2020 for a rundown of what to expect, a review of the event highlights, and, critically our best tips…

Have you been feeling under the weather lately? If so, it’s best for you to join us as we meet everyone’s favorite snowman who lives under the weather—you know, that little flurry cloud that Elsa made for him!

Check out the video below to see the fun we had meeting Olaf…IN SUMMER!

Gaston…With His Nose Stuck in a Book!
It’s somewhat shocking, but it happened. That’s right—everyone’s favorite guy, Gaston, had that dreamy far off look and his nose stuck in a book when we met him recently in Walt Disney World! The man Belle called, “boorish” and “brainless” wasn’t entirely opposed to seeing his story in print, but he did have some significant edits to how the whole thing went down. While we understand his skewed perspective, we think he’s probably been living in Fantasyland too long. We fully support the Beast’s growth throughout the story and think he and Belle are perfect together in the end. What do you think? Are you team Gaston or…
Will You Sign My Underpants?! with Donald Duck
I admit, I’ve joked about Donald Duck thinking he is “#1” and his incessant need to assert this fact on numerous occasions. I’ve always liked Donald, and I’ve loved meeting him in the parks and at restaurants. Still, I didn’t agree that he was truly tops until this interaction. Now, I believe! Donald Duck’s number one because this meet and greet at Chef Mickey’s in Disney’s Contemporary Resort was and is my favorite character interaction of all time! Sadly, Brian couldn’t be there for this due to work commitments, but it’s among his favorites too. We’re so excited to share it with you, and we hope you love…
Meet and Greet with Ralph and Vanellope from Wreck-It Ralph – Will You Sign My Smash Fists?!
Vanellope may be a reluctant Disney Princess, but she jumped at the chance to “wreck-it” like Ralph when we gave her the opportunity during a recent meet and greet in Walt Disney World. We have the feeling she has a new passion besides driving now…perhaps there’s even a “Wreck-It Vanellope” in our future. Until then, join us for this—our fourth installment in our new, exclusive series, “Will You Sign My…?” featuring our most memorable interactions with Disney characters. We’re sharing our interactions with Disney characters for your viewing pleasure, but we’re also hoping these videos serve as inspiration for you to make your own unique, magical memories.
