The prices charged are unacceptable.  Very few ordinary American families can afford Disney.

How many girls/women out there wait for the right prince.  And for those totally wanting a Disney themed wedding- they can.  If the shoe fits or in this case if the ring fits.  I am glad Disney did this.  Every girl wants to be a Princess the day of the wedding- and now they can be if they want.  I would never trade the ring I have but that is so wonderful.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tkba7864990607]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 10:52AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[It this flat economy I think this can be a good marketing tool for the Disney Company to make money, and they do have pretty names, like Princess Jasmine.  However, I think a more complete list of the Disney Characters should be available for the rings.  Goofy is a name that comes to mind for myself when I got married at the tender age of 19, and a ring to match would have been "cool" to have. (But it is 30 years later, and we are still married, so things worked out.)<br><br>Other Disney characters could add to the wedding experience in a positive way.  For the Bride's "stag party" before the wedding you could have the group named after the cute Disney chipmunks.  Thats right, you could host the "Chip and Dale" dancers........<br><br>The possibilities are endless. a cute play on words could be used for the wedding invitations with a picture of Mickey Mouse's girl friend on the cover.  You could say "Minnie happy returns" in your greetings.  And of course what better place than DisneyWorld to enjoy your honeymoon.  Its a natural.<br><br>Mike]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ken Williams]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 8:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree.  I have always loved visiting Disneyland since before my first birthday, but the prices are really ridiculous.  We have two free passes right now but can't justify paying for three more children's tickets and the parking there.  I think Walt Disney would be horrified if he knew what they were charging.   It was built so children everywhere could enjoy it, not just a rich few.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Anita]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 11:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree with Candy.  Disneyland is way too expensive, especially for the average family right now.  We have two free passes but still can't afford the $300 for our children's tickets and parking.  I think Walt Disney would be horrified if he knew what they were charging for admission.  He built the park for children everywhere to enjoy and I really feel that philosophy has been lost over the time.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Anita]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 11:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[I totally disagree...<br>Disney's prices are reasonable when you consider what you get for your money.  NO WHERE ELSE can even come close to the magical environment, shows, rides, and over-the-top customer service.  The park allows you to bring in your own food and drinks (very few others allow this), and the specials they run for families are excellent.  I have not (nor has any member of my family) worked for Disney, but would urge anyone to try to go.  Our family has been a few times, and it is something we plan and save for...we save our change, have yard sales, and cut back in other areas...I know everyone can't do it, but saying their prices are ridiculous is very unreasonable...you get SUCH a bang for your buck there...NOTHING is spared to make your trip a memorable, magical one.  I think Mr. Disney would be VERY PROUD.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TheSheppard5]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 12:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[I too disagree with Candy and Anita....<br>Disney right now is offering amazing deals for hotels and dining,....how much more do you want then a hotel on property for as low as $68 a night (in low season) and have your meals included?<br>also inside disney world the prices are not so outrageous.....it costs more money to spend the day at a cheesy six flags theme park where a bottle of water is $4<br>I go to Disney World 2 plus times a year and I notice every time how they are offering more and more packages/specials inside and out side the park for families to be able to enjoy<br>Disney world is really so amazing and every child and parent should enjoy it <br>of course people who can will still stay at the Deluxe hotels for $400 a night and do every extra activity regardless of cost....but that happens everywhere you go on vacation....i really believe disney does not only cater to those people]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Love2smile79]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 12:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[Their packages are awesomely priced. I have 3 uncle's and my father works there so we don't need to worry about paying for admission plus there's discounts and more so it's even cheaper for us. We live about 40 minutes from the Walt Disney World resort area. :) Thumbs up!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[nfwalexa]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 12:52PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[Are you kidding me...I think the prices are fine and I am a single parent with 2 jobs.   A ticket for a football game costs as much as an all day ticket to disney...which is a better deal....football 3 hours disney all day??    Anita...just a rich few...are you kidding... ahve you been there...they are packed. lol.  What you get for you money is an experience that cannot be matched at any other theme park.   I think Walt Disney would be very very very proud of the length his parks go to. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[leslie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 12:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[I would have to say that disney world is wayyyy to expensive i went there for the first time in my life this year in march. Me and my fiance had never had the pleasure of going as kids because it was always..wait ...yah to EXPENSIVE for our parents for bring us. When we went it was 80$ a person there was 2 rides you could actually go on, none of the shows were going on that day except for a muppet show and a stunt show. They wanted 9$ for a pizza the size my hand..It was absolutley rediculous..I live in massachusetts and im sorry disney world is legendary but 6 flags is 10 times better.. They have a bunch more rides, shows and they dont charge you a days pay just to get in]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jezzika]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 1:09PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[VERY pretty!

They should sponsor women's mental health and reproductive clinics next. Britney and Lohan can be first in line.<br>I think the last thing that we should be teaching our kids is that they should look/act/expect to be "princesses", a man will let you live "happily ever after", that it is cute to trick or disobey adults, or that it is "cool" to love the Jonas Bros.?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kelly chesnut]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 1:28PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have to agree....I love Disney World. The prices may not be in everyone budget but that's why I only go once a year. We take about five kids with us and six adults and we visit  two parks while we are there. It worth the money. Just try saving a little each month it will be worth it. If that's just not in your budget, just making it one of those things you have to do before you die. The kids will love it!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[chocherries]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 1:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[Nothing makes me cringe more that the word DISNEY, except maybe theme park!<br>Ya'll r too classy 4 me!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kelly chesnut]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 1:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow I had no idea that it would be so hard to post something negative abiout Disney!!Possible filtering going on here.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kelly chesnut]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 1:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[It is because so many of us have had such wonderful experiences at Disney.  We think it is a great place and a vacation like no other.  We take our kids there and everyone enjoys the same things.  Moms and daughters hold hands, we reconnect.  <br><br>Being young and innocent and loving Princesses is awesome.  I'm 41 and I sill love them.  And, don't forget there is other stuff there...  Indiana Jones, Bear in the Big lue House, Star Wars, High School Musical...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jlgoodrum]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 1:48PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/10/21/disney-gets-into-the-wedding-ring-business/</guid><description><![CDATA[Disney is the best vacation ever!  I'm going in November for my 9th time.  The hotels are reasonably priced and the food is included free as a special they are offering right now.  The busses take you all over properties for free.  Ground transportation from the airport is free.  You get ALOT for the price!<br><br>For those of you that think "the princess thing" is a bunch of crap and that is not real life....  Give your kids a break.  Let them be little and enjoy the fantasy.  Who knows, many of us grow up and marry our prince and live happily ever after.  They will have a long time to stress about adult things, don't put that on them now!<br><br>It is the happiest place on earth and your kid will smile until their face hurts, they will love it so much!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jlgoodrum]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 22nd 2009 1:48PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
