Hi Nathaniel! Thanks for visiting planDisney.
A
Complimentary Birthday Button is a great personalized memento of your special day, plus it allows other Guests and Cast Members to know you're celebrating. I recently marked a birthday in the parks, and having well-wishers acknowledge my birthday throughout the day made it extra special as usual. It's a great idea!
However, there's no rush. They won't run out of buttons by any means. So, if you'd like to experience an Attraction or two first, feel free. Your buttons will be ready to be created when you feel it's the right time to stroll back down Main Street, U.S.A., and visit City Hall, which opens at the same time as the rest of the park.
Be sure to take all the pictures of the special day and your kids in their buttons! Did you know that with
Disney PhotoPass, the whole family gets to be in the picture? Whoever is typically your photographer won't be on the other side of the camera, and downloads are complimentary with the purchase of
Lightning Lane Passes, which is a fantastic value. Talented Disney PhotoPass photographers are located throughout the parks, so you can get the picture shot. Maybe a picture in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle in Fantasyland is just the thing to remember the day? Or you might be like my Force-sensitive family and need a shot with the iconic Millennium Falcon in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. Find the nearest photographer using the Disneyland mobile app. Switch to "PhotoPass" at the top of the map to find the nearest photographer.
Plus, with Lightning Lane Passes, you'll spend less time on this special day waiting in queues, so you can focus on the fun of being together. If you haven't yet added it to your tickets, you can do so on the app after you've scanned in for the day. Prices may vary, and availability may be limited.
Have a magical day!
Elizabeth
