I just went to Disney World last week for my spring break and I'm going in November this year for my sweet 16!!!!! Even tho I go pretty often it's never any less magical! I'm so excited!!!!!! your videos always get me so pumped!
Oh I'm just sitting here sobbing with happy tears!! Thanks so much!! I'm updating my Instagram bio with - Ellie Steadman replied 23-7-15 - and I'm absolutely ecstatic!!
Hiya. Love your Disney videos Ellie. They're fab! Not sure if this has been mentioned in the comments on this video before so I apologise if it has. Just want to say that the Halloween events always start at the beginning of September in Orlando, not October. And they usually go on until very early November. Just for anyone who's going in September and thinking they may miss the MNSSHP. I'm going to Orlando this September again and it'll be my 4th trip and I'm so excited!
Loved this video! I'm going to Florida for the first time in September so excited watching your videos! (I go the 21st-6th October so just miss you!) I've been to Disney land Paris (for a day on the way to Spain!) but 14 years ago.. & aged only 8 at the time I can't really remember much but it was honestly one of the best days of my childhood! Can't wait to go to Disney world! X
I prefer to go around August, not only because the weather is still hot, but most schools in America start around the end of August so it is never really busy then. Also I just wanted to say I just discovered your channel, but I love it and would love to see your channel grow!!
These tips are great. I've never stayed at a Disney hotel and had much input into it at all as my parents always organised it through a travel agent. I'm looking forward to being able to organise my own trip to Disney world hopefully with my friends or boyfriend. This was SOOO helpful though! Agree about the going for at least two weeks. So excited to see your vlogs when you go :)
I've been lucky enough to go to Orlando 14 times, last time was June last year...trip 15 booked for October 2016 and trip 16 part booked for August 2017..and it doesn't matter how many times i've been I love watching videos like this, gets me all excited for my next trip. I am the wrong side of 30 and i still love Disney as much as if i was a kid and can't wait to see your vlogs :) If you or any of your subscribers have any questions re Disney etc i would be more than happy to help. :)
Great video! Yeah when it comes to restaurant reservations I think what you need is luck. I booked my trip just 3 months in advance, but I was lucky and I made all the dining reservations I wanted including some hard ones like Be Our Guest, Cinderella's Royal Table and Ohana's! I am going in August so I was very lucky!
It would be lovely to make a "What I carry/ bring to Disneyland essentials" sort of video.Im going to Disneyland Paris and this would be my first time, sooo excited.
Loved this! I've been to Disney a few times but never stayed on site - now I'm looking at going with some friends next year and staying at Caribbean Beach Resort as they're offering the free dining plan for next year too! Looking forward to see how you like it there! Also love your top! Lion King is my favourite Disney movie, haha :)
Lizzie Gines That's so exciting! I can't wait to stay at CB, it looks amazing. Very excited about the free dining plan too, I'm going to eat a lot haha! Thank you, it's mine too!x
***** It really does look amazing! I don't blame you - I'll definitely eat too much when I go as everything looks so yummy! Hope you have an amazing time too (even though it's still a few months away) x
Your videos are great. I recommend you to try the minigolf course in Walt Disney World. The Fantasy Gardens Minigolf is great, it is next to the Swan & Dolphin Hotel.
I've had everyone's Disney videos saved in my watch later playlist so that I could sooth my Disney blues once I got home. However I am now kicking myself because I didn't know you could book another fastpass once your three have been used!!
***** I've posted and am still posting all of my Disney photos on my instagram @sarahrevely if you fancy checking them out! (Don't worry, this isn't me begging you to follow me ;)) xxx
It is a little difficult to stay off site in certain cases , but for my trip I go to the wyndham Bonnet Creek in Disney grounds, but not owned by disney. There are buses in that hotel that take us to the park. If anyone wanted to go to Disney , but not stay in a Disney hotel, you can get a wyndham time share and go there.
Thanks for the great tips :) won't be going for a very very long time, cz my Disney World saving has been halved since I need to pay my entire Disney Paris birthday trip myself, but once I'm ready to go to Disney World I'll definitely rewatch this video!!! 😊 Love the shirt btw, Primark? 😉
EmmP3 At least you have started saving towards it! Disneyland Paris for your birthday will be amazing. That's what I'm doing next week for my 21st :) Yep it's Primark! x
Also just found it funny, I'm going last week September first week October (leaving 10th) and am going to Be Our Guest twice for dinner and once for lunch as well, haha x
LOVE your videos! I'm going to try to go next October. Won't be too hot and looking forward to the low crowds. As far as villains, don't forget Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween party, which start mid-September! I can't wait for your next trip videos!!
Kuntry Girl thanks so much! You will love October. MNSSHP started the last day of September when I last went so it's great that they've moved it forward a bit! :)
Hi Ellie me and my partner love your videos and we are watching your DisneyWorld Vlogs. We go in October this year and wondered how you buy tickets for the mickeys not so scary party? xx
What magic band do you have?! Can you do a vid on all the bits you've planned for your October trip please-restaurants etc! The only thing that's getting me through waiting to go is your vids and posts! Make sure you Instagram and periscope lots!! X
Kate Trayler I don't have mine yet as I get it when I arrive at the hotel but I've got a pink one ordered. I'll do a video on my restaurants that I have booked and why I picked them! I'll be on Instagram, Snapchat and Periscope in Disneyland Paris on Monday and Disney World in October!
Hi Ellie, really helpful video! I was wondering if you have any tips on how to get from Walt Disney World to Universal Studios if you don't have a hire car? Is it a long journey? :) x
Hey, great video! Really helpful! I'm not going to Florida any time soon, but if I did then I would love to stay in a disney hotel, but wouldn't be able to afford it 😂 so would only probably have 1 week in Disney Hotel and 1 week in Holiday Inn or something. So the early fastpass booking and dining for disney hotel guests, do you think you would be able to do the early booking for your entire 2 week holiday if only half is in a disney hotel? Thanks!!! :D
Ellie! It's only 43 days until my paris trip, and I'm worried about what footwear I should take... do i take something comfy and not care about how they look?! Annnnnnd, I'm taking my nikon d3300 with me, do rides offer a bag holding? I don't fancy my precious camera getting broken! xx
OhSoEmzy That's so exciting! You should definitely go for comfort, you will be doing a lot of walking. I wore my Converse on my previous trip and will be wearing my Disney Vans on this trip. I don't tend to do the rides where bags might be an issue. Chelsea did them on our trip in March so I held her things for her. There are compartments either under your seat or infront of for bid rides, but I'd leave my things with someone else if you could! It's not worth the risk with your nice camera. x
***** (obviously if it's in a well protected camera bag it should be okay, or you could rent a locker- it's just it's at your own risk if you do take it on)
Thank you so much! I've just ordered the mickey vans, how strange is that?! I wanted the bag too but i'm gonna wait till i get there i think. I'm there for a week, so maybe i'll just split the days into 'ride days' and 'camera days' to be on the safe side. Looking forward to more blogs! When do you go to paris for a few days? Surely it's soon?! x
Hey Ellie, great vid!! As you're going in October, will you be going to mickeys Halloween party, or universal horror nights etc? If you are will you be making a vid when you get back about "how to do Halloween in Disney", as in trick or treating or dressing up in costume etc? :) Thanks!!! You're great! X
OMGOSH I JUST SAW YOU ANSWERED MY QUESTION 🙊🙊 YAYAYYAYAYAY. I look forward to meeting you lovely 😘will totally message you or something when we are there 😄😄
Eeek! Okay yay! Was actually wondering if there's anyway I can private message you anywhere? I want some advice with my holiday packing and other stuff xxx
Hi Ellie. I did the fast pass+ when I went last year but I never heard of being able to book another additional one after using your allowance of 3 that day??? I'm confused. I thought it was simply 3 a day. That's it no additional ones after that??
bonneymarieee They don't really tell you about it unfortunately. But once you've used all three of your original booked fastpasses you are eligible to receive another by going to the kiosks. Even if you are in a different park :)
Hi just started watching your videos a couple of days ago!! I live in UK too and primark is my number one shop (I'm a guy) can get lots of cheap tops and guess what dont tell anyone but I'm a Disney fanboy! I love all the movies and can't wait to go to Disneyland soon! Love your videos think their awesome and lion king is the best Disney movie ever!! If you would respond to this comment it would mean a lot to me! Thanks Bye x 😉😊
I just went to Disney World last week for my spring break and I'm going in November this year for my sweet 16!!!!! Even tho I go pretty often it's never any less magical! I'm so excited!!!!!! your videos always get me so pumped!

Becca Lammin weather is still absolutely lovely and hot in September. Queues quietened down after the first week when everyone goes back to school! x

Kuntry Girl thanks so much! You will love October. MNSSHP started the last day of September when I last went so it's great that they've moved it forward a bit! :)
Hi Ellie me and my partner love your videos and we are watching your DisneyWorld Vlogs. We go in October this year and wondered how you buy tickets for the mickeys not so scary party? xx
Could you do a video about planning your Disney World trip when staying offsite? X
BethMG x I could try too absolutely! I didn't really plan so much my previous trip but I'll try my best too!x
Thankyou so much! My family are thinking about stopping in a villa and we have no idea where to start with booking disney wise! :s Xx
What magic band do you have?! Can you do a vid on all the bits you've planned for your October trip please-restaurants etc! The only thing that's getting me through waiting to go is your vids and posts! Make sure you Instagram and periscope lots!! X
Kate Trayler I don't have mine yet as I get it when I arrive at the hotel but I've got a pink one ordered. I'll do a video on my restaurants that I have booked and why I picked them! I'll be on Instagram, Snapchat and Periscope in Disneyland Paris on Monday and Disney World in October!
Hi Ellie, really helpful video!
I was wondering if you have any tips on how to get from Walt Disney World to Universal Studios if you don't have a hire car? Is it a long journey?
:) x
+Claire77G we used uber. Took about 25 mins and cost less than $20 a journey xx
+Ellie Steadman Thanks, Ellie!
Have you ever been to DW around Christmas time? My first time to Disney World was last December and it was amazing.
Scott Burnham I haven't but I'd loved too one day!
I love your shirt!
Staci Neiman thank you!x
Thank you for your tips, Ellie!
Aren't you doing Disneyland Paris again this month?
Wellington Vargas Gomes You are more than welcome. Yep I am going back on Monday the 27th! :)
***** Nice! Have a lovely time. XO from Brazil. : B
I Love the Minnie ears. I have a pair but I can never really wear them.
Kawii Berry I wear mine round the house haha!
are you staying at Caribbean beach ? i stayed there in june of this year and its absolutely amazing and beautifully themed :)
Briley Welch yes I am! I cannot wait. That makes me so excited! x
Hey, great video! Really helpful! I'm not going to Florida any time soon, but if I did then I would love to stay in a disney hotel, but wouldn't be able to afford it 😂 so would only probably have 1 week in Disney Hotel and 1 week in Holiday Inn or something. So the early fastpass booking and dining for disney hotel guests, do you think you would be able to do the early booking for your entire 2 week holiday if only half is in a disney hotel? Thanks!!! :D
HollieBobQuack I think you can only book for your duration of your stay on property!x
Love your videos x
08jessbrown thanks so much!

Surely it's soon?! x
OhSoEmzy they are so cute! They'd be perfect for the parks. I think that's a safe idea. I go on Monday next week!!x
Hey Ellie, great vid!!
As you're going in October, will you be going to mickeys Halloween party, or universal horror nights etc?
If you are will you be making a vid when you get back about "how to do Halloween in Disney", as in trick or treating or dressing up in costume etc?
:)
Thanks!!! You're great! X
Aman Dhillon I'm going to Mickey's Not So Scary! I need to think of a costume still. Of course, great video idea!x

bonneymarieee no problem lovely! We shall definitely arrange a time to meet! xxx
Eeek! Okay yay! Was actually wondering if there's anyway I can private message you anywhere? I want some advice with my holiday packing and other stuff xxx
bonneymarieee Instagram or Facebook may be easiest?xx
Ooh okay I shall give either a go! Xx
When you booked your holiday direct through Disney, was all the money due upfront, or do they have a payment plan? Thanks!
+Caitlyn Vohs we paid a £100 deposit then paid the full balance 3 months before we went :)
Hey Ellie, will you purchase Memory Maker or Photopass while in the parks?
hufflefairy yep I have already purchased Memory Maker for our trip to Disney World and will buy Photo Pass at Disneyland Pass for my trip on Monday!
How did you book be our guest for lunch? I thought it was quick service? :))
Lydia M It's still available to book from 180 days as well even tho it is quick service!x
Hi Ellie. I did the fast pass+ when I went last year but I never heard of being able to book another additional one after using your allowance of 3 that day??? I'm confused. I thought it was simply 3 a day. That's it no additional ones after that??

Oh my gosh no way!!!! So excited! Can't wait to do that!! Thanks for letting me know 😄😄😄
Would you say the first few weeks of January are a good time to go
