How much is it to rent out Disney for a wedding?

Different venues have different event minimums. The least expensive venues have event minimums between $7,500 and $10,000 (with ceremony venue fees of $3,500). These include Conch Key Marina and Crescent Cove. The majority of Disney World's wedding venues have an event minimum of between $10,000 and $20,000.



In 2026, you don't typically "rent out the entire park" for a wedding; instead, you pay for specific venues and "Event Minimums." A Disney Fairy Tale Wedding in 2026 starts with an event minimum of $15,000, which covers a basic ceremony at an outdoor resort location (like the Luau Beach) on a weekday. However, for the iconic Magic Kingdom experience, costs skyrocket. A "Magic Kingdom After Hours" ceremony—where you have the park to yourself near the Castle after it closes—can have a venue fee starting at $40,000, with total wedding costs often exceeding $100,000 once catering, floral, and photography are included. In 2026, the average couple spends between $30,000 and $60,000. These prices are highly dynamic; a Saturday in June will always be significantly more expensive than a Tuesday in January. Disney also offers a 2026 "Adventure Elopement" package for under $10,000 for very small groups, keeping the magic accessible for those on a "modest" budget.
