Well, it might not be quite to everyone's taste for a wedding meal, since it is primarily barbeque, but....
We did Whispering Canyon Cafe at the Wilderness Lodge. Everyone was VERY pleased with it. And the price was reasonable (I'm wanting to say it ended up being around $26 or so per person, but I don't remember for sure.)
We had a 10:00 a.m. wedding ceremony, and had our wedding luncheon at 2:30 p.m. Finding a place to have lunch around that time of day can be difficult, and finding a place that is somewhat reasonable even more so. Whispering Canyon was about the only place that fit the bill for us. Plus, we have a few picky eaters in the group, so any kind of a "fancy" menu would have probably been a problem.
One of the things we did was we asked to have the dinner menu instead of the lunch menu. It was a little more expensive, but we liked the selection on it a little better. And what they do for a wedding group like that is the all-you-can-eat skillet meal. It was really, really good, too. Plenty of food for everyone, all of it delicious, and everyone seemed to really like everything they brought out.
We gave everyone else time to change clothes before lunch, and almost everyone did take the opportunity to do so, so they didn't have to worry about getting barbeque on their good clothes. DH and I had planned for the "mess", and had arranged to have DH's mom bring aprons. Unfortunately, she insisted on giving them to me a couple of days ahead of time, and it was impossible for me to keep up with everything all day, so at the restaurant, we ended up only having one. I used it, and DH was fortunately able to keep it all off himself! I actually did well enough that I was ok without the apron anyway myself.
Oh, and the one thing that had worried me most about WCC - I know it is supposed to be a fairly rowdy themed restaurant, which wasn't exactly what I'd pictured for my wedding meal. But it fit what we needed every other way, so we just asked if they would kind of put us off to one side or something. Well, they had us in an area that was completely separate from the rest of the restaurant. The way they set things up, it was like having our own private room - sort of. On one side, we were actually open out into lobby/walkway area, but not a main area, so though a few people were walking by there now and again, it was nothing to bother us. And there was no noise at all from the rest of the restaurant to disturb us.
The only part I can't speak for is the desserts - though having also stayed at the WL, I can tell you that the Berry Cobbler is WONDERFUL!!!! But we didn't do dessert with the lunch - we had our wedding cake served with lunch instead.
So, it partly depends on what you picture for your meal. I have to say - at first, I was skeptical, because I really hadn't planned on doing foods we would at least partly be eating with our hands and such at my wedding, but... It really was good, and everyone enjoyed it so much, that I'm VERY glad that's what we chose.

Maybe somewhere like Citrico's at the Grand Floridian or even one of Emeril's two restaurants in Orlando?
