One of the best-kept secrets of Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings is that you may use non-Disney vendors for many aspects of your event. Whether you’re allowed to hire outside vendors depends on your venue and the type of service, but it can be a great way to save money or get more bang for your buck!
On today’s show, Disney bride Angela Apolito joins me to discuss the types of outside vendors you may hire, where you are allowed to use outside vendors, how much money you can save, and whether Disney charges an outside vendor fee for each type of service. You’ll hear how Angela saved as much as 50% by using outside vendors for chairs, chargers, pipe-and-drape and a light-up dance floor at the Contemporary Convention Center, plus how she arranged her own set-up assistant for her DIY projects. We’ll also discuss where you can incorporate DIY projects and dispel the myth that using outside vendors is more complicated than using Disney.

Hi Tawny! The Official DisBrides Group does allow vendors and even has some of the ones mentioned in this epsiode as members, if you are interested. But congrats on starting a new group!
