A Disney-Fairytale Wedding In Côte d'Ivoire

May 21 . 2021

Disney enthusiasts, rejoice, we've got your free-ticket into the most extravagant magical experience!

We are taking you on the romantic route to Disneyland through Sabine and Riwan's wedding in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire. Get ready for a truly fun-filled fairytale wedding with a plethora of movies and characters.

It all goes way back, when little Sabine was (and still is) a major Disney fanatic and had always dreamed of bringing this fantasy to reality. It's safe to say that that night, she found her prince charming!

As you take your first steps inside this magical kingdom, a horse drawn carriage lent from ' The Belle Of The Ball' movie awaited, and yes, with a prince inside! Turning left, you will be welcomed by Grandmother willow, Pocahontas's talking wise tree. Meanwhile, you get to enjoy an abundance of signature Disney cocktails that are so good you'd be convinced it's made out of a magic spell! These potions are labeled after iconic Disney movies and so are the escort cards. Enjoy this little spoiler while we continue to discover the curious reception area.

Before you are directed towards your seat, you'll pass through an illusion room filled with mirrors, directions and doors, accompanied with our favorite Disney characters that will interact and captivate you with their enchantment. But attention please, make sure you don't fall down the rabbit hole.

Once you take a seat on a uniquely customized Disney-themed table, you'll be delighted to find a sweet little note from the couple. As an extension to the movie theme assigned , each plate will be carved with famous quotes taken from the movie. The astonishing pink palettes with candlelight magic collided to create a table setting that breathes in elegance and opulence.

As an Ode to Africa and the Lion King, the groom made his epic entrance amid a group of African drummers, followed by a magical ball. After few seconds all eyes were redirected towards the bride, who entered as if she's escaped fairytale for a second into the real world, making her entry on ' Once Upon A December' song.

Hold your horses, we're not done yet! When guests headed to the buffet area, ' Be Our Guest' song from ' Beauty And The Beast' played along as they got to enjoy the most attractive Disney-inspired feast and desserts .

Wandering to the sound of fairytale medleys, singing birds and movie characters was a real-life Disney experience that awakened our inner "Disnerds"!
