References made to other Disney films and characters include:

  • Judy Kuhn makes a cameo appearance as one of the residents in Robert's building (credited as "Pregnant Woman with Kids") – Kuhn provided the singing voice of Pocahontas.
  • The troll, while being flung into the next kingdom, does the Goofy holler, heard in many other Disney films and shorts – a reference to Goofy.
  • The bus driver's hair is shaped like the ears of Mickey Mouse.
  • Television clips watched by Prince Edward and Nathaniel in their hotel room – according to director Kevin Lima, "Everything on the television comes from a Disney film. Every image: Disney's Robin Hood; there's an image of Mortimer Snerd, a ventriloquist's dummy that comes from Fun and Fancy Free. There's a lot of dialogue that plays in the background that is all Disney referenced as well. The Spanish dialogues were from the Latin American version of Mickey and the Beanstalk, specifically the part where Mickey tries to coerce the giant into turning into a fly."
  • In addition, while channel surfing, a portion of the music from the Pink Elephant scene in Dumbo can be heard before switching back to the soap opera at Nathaniel's request.
  • Bella Notte, the Italian restaurant that Giselle, Robert and Morgan eat at – a tribute to the song from Lady and the Tramp.
  • Giselle goes down a hole like Alice does in Alice in Wonderland
  • Giselle pulls Edward's sword from the ballroom floor – a reference to The Sword in the Stone.
  • Giselle's gradual transformation throughout the movie from cartoonish to "real woman" – a tribute to Pinocchio.
  • Giselle says that she made her dress by spinning silk into thread on her spinning wheel. This makes a reference to the spinning wheel in Sleeping Beauty, and she also says the mice and rabbits helped with the sewing, a reference to when the mice made Cinderella's first ball gown in Cinderella.
  • Giselle, Narrissa, Nathaniel, Edward and Nancy have live action and animated forms – a reference to James and the Giant Peach when James climbs into the peach.
  • When Nathaniel comes up with his plan to try to stop Edward from finding Giselle by letting the troll chase him, he closes the locket with Narissa's picture the same way Professor Ratigan did in one scene of The Great Mouse Detective.
  • In the True Love's Kiss musical number, a frog falls into a sink full of soapy water and reappears with a soapy crown on its head, foreshadowing Disney's The Princess and the Frog movie.
  • While Giselle is looking for an appropriate mouth for her Prince mannequin, she places a caterpillar where the mouth should be. The caterpillar has a beard. A reference to The Sword in the Stone.
  • Susan Sarandon, who plays Queen Narissa, was the voice of Miss Spider in James and the Giant Peach.
  • The way the troll finishes "True Love's Kiss" is similar to the way Shere Khan finishes "That's What Friends Are For."
  • Edward springs out from a manhole into New York. This is a reference to Who Framed Roger Rabbit when Roger Rabbit and Toon Patrol member Greasy, are jettisoned from a manhole into the ACME factory.
  • The way Pip hang glides across the wire is like how the boys slide across the vine in Peter Pan.
  • Near the beginning, when Queen Narissa sees who Edward's betrothed is, she calls her a "little forest rat," a reference to Aladdin where the titular character is often called a street rat.
  • Nemo can be found on Morgan's backpack
  • During "That's How You Know" a girl acting the part of Rapunzel in a play foreshadows Disney's later film Tangled.
  • A girl dressed as Tinkerbell is in the background at the end of "That's How You Know".
  • The German dancers in "That's How You Know" are a reference to Pinocchio.
  • The owl Giselle wakes up is Archimedes from "The Sword in the Stone".
  • Morgan says "I'm only 6" and her father replies "You won't always be." – a reference to "Peter Pan".
  • Nathaniel congratulates Edward on capturing trolls – similar to Zazu's ditty "I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts" in "The Lion King".
  • When Pip is doing the book signing for 'Silence is Not Golden', Pumba from "The Lion King" can be seen waiting in line with a copy of the book.
