My wedding is November 8th and I want to take the ferry from WL to Ohana's for dinner at 5:05pm. What time should we take ferry and will it pick up my quests at the Magic Kingdom entrance.
 
I may be wrong, but I don't believe you can take the ferry from WL to the other resorts. I'm not even sure if the ferry will go from the WL to the TTC, which is walking distance from the Poly. If you want to take the ferry, you'll probably need to go to the MK and then to the Poly.

And congratulations! :groom: :bride: My wife and I were married November 6 and honeymooned at WDW. Have a great time!

There is a small BOAT (not the big ferry) from WL to MK. Then you can take a different small boat from MK to the Polynesian.

I would figure on AT LEAST 75 minutes. The boat from WL goes to FW before heading to MK. The boat to the Polynesian stops at the GF first.

Take the Wilderness Lodge boat to the Magic Kingdom. Get off there meet your guests. Then go to the resort launch to go to the Polynesian. The resort launch will stop first at the Grand Floridian and then go to the Poly. Heck, if you and your guests fill up the boat, they might not even go to the GF and go directly to the Poly. It is probably a 5-10 minute walk from the Poly marina to Ohana.

I would plan on leaving the WL by 4:00, and leaving the MK by 4:30. That should get you there by 5:05. I would ask how often the launches and boats run at the WL so you can plan accurately.

(Edited to add: I forgot that the boat from the WL stops at Fort Wilderness, as betterlatethannever said, I would count on at least 75 minutes to be safe.)
