Local bridal studio gets dress deal with Disney
Feb 22, 2007


Gainesville Sun - Disney chose a bridal shop with roots in Gainesville to be the first to offer a line of bridal gowns based on Disney characters.

Solutions Bridal Designer House in Winter Park will be the first store to carry 35 gown designs based on characters like Cinderella and Snow White as Disney enters the bridal market.

Newell Fox opened the first Solutions Bridal in Gainesville at 6450 Archer Road in 2002 and opened the shop in Winter Park 14 months later.

Fox quoted Disney officials as saying they get 83,000 requests a year for some type of fairy-tale wedding - "everything from pulling up in Cinderella's horse-drawn carriage to the low-end."

Winter Park customers often buy a gown and "go right over to Disney and get married," he said.

Disney officials declined to comment Wednesday, citing an exclusive news arrangement they have with the Wall Street Journal.

But Fox said Disney contacted him after visiting the Winter Park shop. Solutions Bridal's Web site describes the shops as having "a New York loft feel with a Miami vibe and Southern hospitality."

"It's very clean, very open, very modern and we carry the best names as far as bridal labels and bridal designers in the country," Fox said.

Another store will also carry the new line near Disneyland in California.

The Disney line will be introduced during the annual New York Bridal Market Week on April 15, Fox said. Disney will then host a "trunk show" staffed by Solutions Bridal at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort before the line is offered through the store in late April or early May.

"I think it's a great opportunity for us," Fox said. "We're very honored to be selected by such an illustrious company like Disney.

Yes, it does seem pricey! Actually my dream dress is one that was on General Hospital. I want to have it made.

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

seamstresses are the way to go if you find a pic go for it! i bought both of my gowns for my wedding off the rack my AM one from Jessica McClintock and my PM one from David's Bridal i believe...wow i can't believe i don't remember!!!

I did have my quincenera gown made by a seamstress though!! and if i hadn't fallen in love with my dresses, i would have headed down that same route again

Disney Announces Expansion of Successful Cruise Business
Thursday February 22, 1:00 pm ET
Two New Ships Will More Than Double Passenger Capacity


BURBANK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Walt Disney Company (NYSEIS - News) plans to expand its successful cruise business by adding two new ocean liners, President and CEO Bob Iger announced today. Scheduled to launch in 2011 and 2012, the ships will more than double the passenger capacity for Disney Cruise Line to meet the sustained demand for Disney's family cruise vacations.

The company signed a letter of intent with Meyer Werft shipyard, based in Papenburg, Germany, to negotiate a contract to build the 122,000-ton new cruise liners, which will be two decks taller than the existing 83,000-ton ships, the Disney Magic and the Disney Wonder. Each ship will have 1,250 staterooms. Specific design plans and itineraries for the yet-unnamed ships are still in development and will be unveiled at a later date.

"Since our maiden voyage in 1998, Disney Cruise Line has been a huge success for our guests and for our shareholders alike," Iger said. "It has brought our unparalleled family vacation experience to the high seas, and has also generated high margins and double digit returns on invested capital. We're excited to announce the expansion of our fleet, which is a logical next step in what is a real growth business for us."

Disney Cruise Line established the family market within the cruise industry when the business launched in 1998. The first two ships were purpose built for families to reconnect and recharge while creating vacation memories that will last a lifetime. From a theater featuring live musical spectaculars to a luxurious spa for adults and nearly an entire deck dedicated to children's activities, the ships offer something for every member of the family. Disney Cruise Line continues to grow by attracting passengers who say they would not have cruised if it hadn't been for the Disney brand.

"Focusing on families has been smart business for us," said Jay Rasulo, Chairman of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts. "More than 95 percent of Disney Cruise Line guests rate their cruise experience as excellent or very good. Families know they can trust us to provide a quality, immersive Disney experience. As a result, Disney Cruise Line continually sets sail with the highest load factors in the industry of nearly 150 percent."

Similar to the original Disney Cruise Line ships, the new ships will be a modern interpretation of classic ocean liners of the 1930s. Disney Imagineers drew their inspiration from the original trans-Atlantic ships that featured a dramatic black hull with two funnels and porthole windows. The profile of the ships, with its gentle curves at the stern combined with sleek angles at the bow, are reminiscent of the art deco designs of the era. To add whimsy to the classic design, the Disney ships have the same exterior color palette as Mickey Mouse with black, white, red and yellow. The new ships will feature elegant, detailed Disney scrollwork at the bow and will evoke images of the glamour of the golden age of cruising.

Tom McAlpin, the President of Disney Cruise Line, said, "This is an exciting time for Disney Cruise Line, and we are looking forward to working with Meyer Werft to blend our innovation and creativity with their fine craftsmanship. Meyer Werft has a long tradition of building magnificent ships. We are confident that the result will be ships that take the immersive Disney family-focused cruise experience to an entirely new level."
