Happlily Ever After: Haunted Mansion Weddings at Disneyland

Disneyland's Haunted Mansion Courtyard will begin hosting wedding ceremonies and vow renewals in July 2026, offering intimate early-morning celebrations for up to 25 guests before the park opens. The new venue package includes an officiant, photography, décor, and hotel transportation, while couples can also choose nearby Magnolia Park Terrace or the Haunted Mansion Parlor aboard the Disney Destiny cruise ship starting May 2026.

For decades, the Haunted Mansion has served as the backdrop for countless guest photos, its stately silhouette instantly recognizable against the New Orleans Square skyline. Beginning in July 2026, however, this iconic location evolves from mere photo opportunity to wedding venue, as Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings and Honeymoons introduces the Haunted Mansion Courtyard as its newest offering at Disneyland Resort.

A Gothic Setting for Your "I Do"

Couples seeking a destination wedding or vow renewal with a delightfully spooky storytelling twist can now say their vows surrounded by the mansion's towering columns and eerily enchanting façade. This spirited venue joins the resort's collection of more than a dozen wedding locations, offering a dramatic atmosphere unlike any other on property.

Ceremonies take place during the early morning hours before Disneyland opens to the general public, ensuring an intimate, private celebration. The courtyard accommodates wedding parties of up to 25 guests, providing an exclusive experience in the shadow of the beloved attraction.

What's Included in Your Supernatural Celebration

The Haunted Mansion Courtyard package includes everything needed for a seamless spectral ceremony: a dedicated officiant to guide you through your vows, tasteful light décor complementing the gothic surroundings, professional photography to capture every moment, and convenient transportation to and from your Disneyland Resort hotel.

Alternative Vantage Points

For couples who prefer a different perspective of the manor, Magnolia Park Terrace presents an elegant alternative located just steps away from the main courtyard. This refined outdoor space offers its own unique sightlines of the Haunted Mansion while maintaining the distinctive ambiance of New Orleans Square.

Ghostly Nuptials at Sea

The haunted wedding experience isn't limited to Anaheim. Starting May 2026, couples can exchange vows inside the Haunted Mansion Parlor aboard the Disney Destiny, the newest ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet. This immersive venue features shifting portraits that reveal the secrets of a ghostly sea captain and his captivating bride-to-be, delivering eerie elegance with ocean views.
