Welcome to planDisney, Brian, and congratulations to you and your wife on 25 years together visiting
Walt Disney World Resort. Talk about a magical marriage! And there's no better place to celebrate love and food than the
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival. I might have some ideas to help make this a most memorable visit!
Many restaurants now offer the ability to pre-order a
Specialty Cake when you book your dining reservation online. If you did not order the cake when you made your reservation at
Via Napoli Ristorante e Pizzeria, you could try to
make another reservation for a similar day and time and add the cake to the new reservation. Once that reservation is all set, you can go into your My Disney Experience plans to cancel the original reservation.
I'm not sure when you'll be arriving for your trip, but you can also order a celebration cake at most restaurants in person four days in advance. If that option isn't possible, you can stop by the restaurant earlier on the same day to request a cake but remember they are subject to availability.
And there's always the option of ordering a dessert to share from the menu. The
Cannolo Siciliano looks scrumptious!
Sweet treats are a marvelous way to celebrate special occasions, but I'm also thinking about something more lasting. This 25th festival visit would be the perfect time for a
Capture Your Moment photo session. You'll spend about 20 minutes with a professional Disney PhotoPass Photographer, and I just checked and saw availability during your visit. You'll pay for the session and decide which photos to purchase later. Pictures of our Disney visits are my family's favorite souvenirs.
A final tip is to wear a matching pair of Celebration Buttons on your special day. These are complimentary and can be picked up at most
Guest Relations locations and many gift shops at EPCOT. I predict you'll get well wishes and comments from other guests and Cast Members all day!
Brian, I hope I've given you some ideas for this special visit. I love that you've been enjoying the Disney magic with your princess for so many years, and I'd love to hear how your anniversary goes! Please
stop by planDisney anytime.
Magic awaits,
Elaine
