Hi Linda,
Congratulations on your Anniversary Happy Birthday to your beautiful Princess! I can't imagine a more magical place to celebrate any occasion than at Walt Disney World Resort.
Pirates and Pals Fireworks Voyage is a pirate-themed adventure on the Seven Seas Lagoon where your Captain takes you on a scenic boat ride and the Grand Finale is watching Wishes Nighttime Spectacular the water. I understand your dilemma, my four year old daughter was afraid of Captain Hook too. He makes an appearance before heading off to sea, and stays just long enough for pictures. We kept my daughter on the opposite side of the room and she was fine.
Another option involving Wishes Nighttime Spectacular would be
Tomorrowland Terrace Dessert Party. It offers a dessert buffet prior to the fireworks display and guests have a private viewing area just to the right of the castle.
Dining at
Cinderella's Royal Table is also a wonderful way to celebrate a special occasion and with reservations guests are able to add on enhancements to make your celebration even more memorable. We chose Her Royal Highness Package for my daughter's Birthday last summer; she received a special cake, tiara, glass slipper and balloon! For more information regarding enhancements at Cinderella's Royal Table please contact wdw.crt.special.events@disney.com at least seven days prior to your reservation.
I have run out of space Linda. If you would like more details concerning one of my suggestions, or have any other questions while planning your vacation please let me know. I would be happy to help.
Stephanie
