This astonishing experience happened to Natasha Narula, when she visited the world famous theme park, to celebrate her 35th birthday with her eight-year-old daughter Drew. The 'birthday mom' was wearing a secondhand wedding dress.
She was shocked when a security guard demanded her either to change the costumes, or get out. The reason was, her dress might confuse the children, who could mistake her for a Disney !
