    My husband and I are celebrating our 50th Wedding anniversary at Disneyworld in September 2021. Is there anything special that is available to us?

    Welcome to planDisney, Michele! Thanks so much for visiting us and asking your question. It's great that you are planning ahead and I'm happy to help!

    Congratulations on almost 50 years! Wow!! It's so inspiring to hear about so many years of living happily ever after! There are many ways you and your husband can celebrate your special milestone this September! I would suggest making one or more advanced dining reservations during your vacation at Walt Disney World Resort. There are some signature dining experiences that would be very memorable. California Grill at Disney's Contemporary Resort offers breathtaking views of Magic Kingdom Park and Cinderella Castle where you can view Disney Enchantment, a new nighttime fireworks spectacular. This restaurant is currently offering a 50th Anniversary Celebration Menu. If you prefer to reserve something in one of the theme parks, The Hollywood Brown Derby at Disney's Hollywood Studios has an old Hollywood, romantic setting and an excellent menu. My personal favorite is The BOATHOUSE, located at Disney Springs. This restaurant is waterside and has incredible views, especially at sunset! If you are a Disney Resorts Collection Hotel guest, you can make your dining reservations up to 60 days before your check-in date. When you are dining, you can mention your special celebration and you might receive a complimentary dessert.

    I would also recommend booking a special experience from the Enchanting Extras Collection. My top pick would be a private Specialty Cruise to have an up-close view of Harmonious, a spectacular display of fireworks set to Disney music. We recently surprised my in-laws with this for the exact same celebration and I can say that it is one of the best extras our family has ever experienced! The cruise included complimentary soft drinks, bottled water, and treats. I was also able to request that the boat be decorated with a "Happy Anniversary" banner and balloons. You can even bring your own champagne! This Enchanted Extra experience can be booked by calling (407) 939-7529.

    When you visit a theme park, you can ask for complimentary "Happily Ever After" Celebration buttons to wear and show that you are celebrating! These buttons can be found at Guest Services located by the entrance or at most stores throughout the theme parks. 

    Walt Disney World Resort is also celebrating 50 years and The World's Most Magical Celebration will be happening during your visit! As you are planning, please visit us again at planDisney if you have additional questions. 

    ChEARS to you & your husband for 50 years of Happily Ever After!
