   Minor point of order - Disney does not have a Wedding CHAPEL, there is a 
Wedding PAVILION next to the Grand Floridian.  This makes it neutral any may 
be used for any wedding ceremony, religious or not, and if religious, for any 
religion.  Disney does have a listing of local clergy, by religion and 
denomination, who are willing to perform ceremonies there.  Note that the 
local Catholic Bishop does not allow any local priests to conduct weddings 
there, but one may "import" a Catholic Priest to conduct a ceremony.
   The basic rules, I think, for use of the pavilion (at no charge) are that 
you purchase at least $5,000 (plus tax and services charges) in food and 
beverage, photography, flowers, character rentals, and other wedding related 
expenses at any of the Disney facilities; also that there is a total of at 
least 50 rooms nights (17 rooms for 3 nights, etc) purchased by people 
attending the wedding; these may be at any of the Disney hotels.
   For further information, call the WDW Fairy Tale Wedding Department 
through the WDW main switchboard.  They will send you all sorts of 
information.
