    My husband and I will be celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary (our HM was also at Disney world) and my birthday on our October cruise. We do have it noted. Just wondering what the cruise line does anything for special occasions. If anything. Thank you

    Ahoy, Kelly! Welcome to planDisney!

    First off, wow! Celebrating a major anniversary milestone and a birthday in one cruise sounds like a fantastic way to celebrate. I like your style! Also, I love the fact that you had your honeymoon at The Most Magical Place on Earth, my wife and I did as well! Great minds!

    Kelly, my family and I were just on a cruise a couple of months ago celebrating my wife’s 40th birthday. Cast Members onboard were so great, and there was definitely some pixie dust sprinkled throughout our sailing.
     
    Based on what you’ve told me, I suspect that you may have already done this, but you can let Disney Cruise Line know that you’re celebrating something special. Under “My Reservations” on the Disney Cruise Line website, select “Special Requests,” and here you can fill out a Special Request form. This is the best place to give Cast Members a heads-up about your special celebrations.
     
    Also, Disney Cruise Line offers a variety of flowers, chocolates, and sparkling wine that can be delivered right to your stateroom. There are also specially themed packages available for purchase that include in-room décor. You can find the complete selection of Onboard Gifts here as well. 
    Your Stateroom Host and Serving Team will likely be made aware, but it never hurts to give them a heads-up as well, and they may add some magic to your days, too! On the day of my wife’s birthday, Cast Members brought her a special dessert and sang “Happy Birthday,” which was the perfect way to cap off our dining experience that night.
     
    Another great way to celebrate is to make a reservation at one of the adult-exclusive restaurants onboard the different ships in the fleet, such as Palo, Remy, and Enchanté. We had a wonderful brunch at Palo Steakhouse, and I literally cannot stop thinking about the amazing food we had there!
     
    I hope this answers your question, Kelly! You’ll certainly have a lot to celebrate, and I hope you have the most wonderful time on your sailing. If you have any other questions as you continue to plan your magical vacation, please don’t hesitate to come back and see us here at planDisney!
     
    Anchors away!
