Newcomer is finally getting her dream wedding to her now-husband, Bryce Newcomer, in December at the Disney Wedding Pavillion -- the two officially tied the knot in 2020 because Bryce is in the U.S. Army.
The couple met on a dating app while he was stationed in Maryland and she was living in Pennsylvania. Bryce popped the question nine months later.
Just like Morgan, Bryce is also a big Disney fan. When they lived in Georgia, they drove to Walt Disney World six times.
"I love that Bryce will always match with me when we go to the parks if I ask him to," Morgan Newcomer said.

She was able to try on accessories such as tiaras, earrings and a veil to complete her look.
Morgan Newcomer was also surprised with a honeymoon gift from Aulani, A Disney Resort and Spa in Hawaii, where she and Bryce will be enjoying a five-night stay.
