Hi Diane! Welcome to planDisney and thank you for sending us your question! How fun that you will be celebrating your son's birthday in less than one week! Our family has spent many birthdays at Walt Disney World Resort and it makes celebrating extra magical!
For your son's celebration, I have a couple of options to suggest. If you prefer delivery to your
Disney Resorts Collection Hotel room,
Disney Floral & Gifts has many festive options that include cupcakes and balloons. You can even add a Mickey Ears Birthday hat to your order! I just used this service last month for the holidays and the items delivered to our room were absolutely perfect!
If you prefer a cake, you can pre-order one from
Amorette's Patisserie at
Disney Springs. You can do this by calling (407) 934-3500 or stopping by the shop at least 72 hours in advance. There are many yummy options including fun Disney-inspired character cakes to choose from! While you will have to pick the cake up, the good news is that transportation is complimentary to Disney Springs when you stay at a Disney Resorts Collection Hotel.
When our family has a special celebration, I always ensure the magical memories we make are captured forever with
Disney PhotoPass. There are photographers located throughout the theme parks that can take your son's photo as well as your family's photo. My favorite location to take special photos is at
Magic Kingdom Park in front of Cinderella Castle! As you enter the park, you can even find Mickey-shaped balloons on Main Street, U.S.A. for an added element of fun to your photos!
The World's Most Magical Celebration is in full swing at Walt Disney World Resort and is sure to be the icing on the birthday cake to your family's vacation!
I hope you have so much fun planning your's son special birthday celebration! Please visit me at
planDisney again if you have any additional questions!
Happy Planning!
