Hiya Katie!
Welcome to planDisney! I am also planning my 40th Birthday at a Disney Destination and I am honored to help you celebrate as we both transition into our prime.
Spending the day "wining and dining" on the delicious items available at the
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is a great way to celebrate the life you have lived. I suggest to make it even more special consider adding an
Enchanting Extra to your trip! Enchanting Extras that I especially recommend are:
-
Capture Your Moment session. Document the person you are now at 40 in the most magical place on Earth. It's only 20 minutes but you will get so many wonderful photos of you! Throw your husband in there for a few too!
- Charter a boat and enjoy fireworks from the water with a
Specialty Cruise! The EPCOT specialty cruise will let you enjoy
Luminous The Symphony of Us with your sweetie. Snacks and drinks are provided!
- If you are not a fan of the nautical life then consider a Fireworks Dining Package such as the one at
Spice Road Table and
Rose & Crown. Have a lovely meal and a perfect viewing of this delightful show. It sets a VIP tone for a VIP weekend. Remember, you are the VIP!
-You deserve to treat yourself so consider a treatment at
The Grand Floridian Spa! Take time to relax and pamper yourself! Imagine a foot massage after a day in the Parks, it's truly magical.
Mandara Spa is actually walking distance from EPCOT at the
Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel so this is a great relaxation option as well!
I hope this helps you make the weekend magical! Take every photo, try every snack, and make 40 the best decade yet!
Happy Planning!
