Any suggestions? A quote from Walt? Anything?

    All around us
    Everywhere we look
    Every moment that we live
    Can fill a picture book
    Light and shadows
    Smiles and sentimental tears
    They're a precious treasure
    We can cherish through the years
    Making memories, making memories
    Taking pictures is making memories
    Catching little pieces of time
    Making them yours, making them mine
    Great vacations and celebrations
    Can fade away in a year
    Cause when we're making memories
    Happy days are always here
    Happy days are always here

    A dream is a wish your heart makes
    When you're fast asleep.
    In dreams you will lose your heartaches
    Whatever you wish for, you keep.
    Have faith in your dreams and someday
    Your rainbow will come smiling through.
    No matter how your heart is grieving,
    If you keep on believing,
    The dream that you wish will come true

    Or you could use the quote above the tunnel:
    Here you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow, and fantasy.

    If your heart is in your dreams, no request is too extreme
    When you wish upon a star as dreamers do

    (Fate is kind, she brings to those who love
    The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing)

    Like a bolt out of the blue, fate steps in and sees you thru
    When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true

    ORDDU: If you happen to have any handsome hunks among your photographs, you might want to us the song from MULAN which talks about 'Making a Man out of You'. Also, for any of those more tender moments, a song from TARZAN would suffice. The best title I can think of is 'You'll be in My Heart'. Hopefully these suggestions will help.

We ended up using "We Go Together" from Grease, which followed the smashing of the glass and the loud "Mazel Tov!!!" It really was perfect.

    Back to the subject at hand...

    "You'll Be In My Heart" is one of my favorites, so I agree with the Witches on that one. I also really like "Baby Mine" and "Bare Necessities." Great lines from each of those songs to use!

    I have often dreamed of a far off place
    Where a great warm welcome will be waiting for me.
    Where the crowds will cheer when they see my face
    And a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be.

    I will find my way, I can go the distance!
    I'll be there someday- If I can be strong!
    I know every mile will be worth my while.
    I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong.

    I am on my way - I can go the distance!
    I don't care how far - Somehow I'll be strong.
    I know ev'ry mile will be worth my while
    I would go most anywhere to find where I belong

    Here are some other phrases/quotes (not yet mentioned) I have been considering. (Note: I know I wasn't exactly clear on this - b/c it doesn't really matter - but it was DLR where we had APs this past year):

    Julie Andrews intro to Dland "Remember" fireworks show:

    Once upon a time, there was a magic kingdom made of hopes and childhood fantasies. A timeless place where every land was filled with wonder. A place where everyone who entered its gates would be given the gift of the young at heart. The power to wish upon a star and unlock its magic. Are you ready to wish upon a star? Then its time to open your heart and remember Dreams come true.

    Or this quote from Walt (a little drier, but real):
    "To all that come to this happy place: welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past, and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams, and the hard facts that have created America... with hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world."
