Welcome to planDisney, Deborah! Having your stateroom decorated is a great way to celebrate a birthday on Disney Cruise Line.
In-Room Décor can be ordered up to 3 days prior to your sail date through
Onboard Gifts. Once you open your stateroom door on embarkation day, the décor will be set up and waiting for you to kick off your vacation and birthday celebration right! You can also order cakes and cupcakes up to 7 days prior to your sail date. The cakes can be delivered to your table at dinner (except for Palo and Remy) or directly to your stateroom on a day of your choosing. Cupcakes are delivered on embarkation day. There are also fruit options to choose from.
While you're celebrating, there will be plenty of opportunities to interact with the
characters. You can take pictures with them and get their autographs.
Disney Cruise Line photographers will be available at those character encounters to capture the moments, and you can purchase the photos to take home with you. When I've celebrated a birthday on Disney Cruise Line with my family, I also make sure to take some great group photos during dinner and around the ship to commemorate the celebration.
Deborah, if you have any other questions, sail back to
planDisney for answers. We love helping Guests plan for special occasions. Until it's time to celebrate, a very happy un-birthday to you!
