Walt Disney World is the happiest place on earth. It only made sense that Danny Tanner from Full House would propose to his then-girlfriend at the Orlando theme park. It wasnā€™t exactly an easy task for this father, though.

Hereā€™s what happened during the ā€œHouse Meets the Mouseā€ episode of this sitcom and what made Dannyā€™s proposal so special.

Danny Tanner dated Vicky for several episodes of ā€˜Full Houseā€™

This Full House character had a few casual dates following the death of his wife, Pam. It wasnā€™t until the showā€™s fifth season that he got serious with his co-worker, Vicky Larson. When Dannyā€™s daughters asked if he would propose to Vicky, he told them it wasnā€™t that simple.Ā 

ā€œFirst, Iā€™d have to ask her,ā€ Danny said. ā€œAnd then, sheā€™d have to say ā€˜yes.ā€™ā€

ā€œSounds pretty simple to me,ā€ Michelle replied. After the family and Vicky traveled to Orlando for a Walt Disney World vacation during the ā€œHouse Meets the Mouseā€ two-part episode, the task seemed pretty difficult.Ā 

Danny Tanner tried to propose in Disney World several times

While the Tanner sisters spent time in Magic Kingdom, Danny and Vicky visited EPCOT. When Danny saw Vicky feeding birds in the Germany Pavillion that he made up his mind about proposing.

Unfortunately, the Full House character was interrupted by a musical group. Instead of asking if sheā€™d marry him, he asked if she wanted some food.Ā 

Then, while seated at the Coral Reef Restuarant in EPCOT, Danny started to propose but was interrupted by Jesse and Joey, who appeared next to their table in scuba gear. After they left, Danny Tanner received a phone call from his daughters, stating that Michelle was missing. The couple left the table immediately.Ā
