Hi there, Maegan! Welcome to planDisney, and congratulations on your upcoming bundle of joy! I can only imagine how incredible it must be to plan a gender reveal and celebrate this magical moment at
Walt Disney World! It's truly The Most Magical Place On Earth, and I’m sure your celebration will be nothing short of amazing!
Disney Meetings & Events says, “If you can dream it, We can Plan it!” So, my suggestion would be to
start here by submitting a request. If this wasn’t what you were looking for, you are certainly welcome to create your own special moment! Many families choose to incorporate this exciting news into a celebration with a photo in front of Cinderella Castle, where you can unveil the big surprise with balloons, t-shirts, or other props. Just be mindful of
park policies regarding outside items like confetti, and it's always best to keep it simple to ensure it doesn’t disrupt the experience of other Guests. One of my favorite suggestions for Guests interested in something special is to use a Mickey or Minnie plush from a merchandise shop in
Magic Kingdom for their reveal. You could bring both a Mickey and Minnie plush to the counter, along with an envelope that has the baby’s gender, and ask the Cast Member to wrap the appropriate one. Then, when you're ready, you can open the box to reveal the surprise! Alternatively, you could go with a prince or princess outfit or a pair of Mickey or Minnie ears for a fun twist! You could also work with a
Disney PhotoPass photographer to capture this once-in-a-lifetime moment, or for a more private setting, book a special
Capture Your Moment 20-minute photo session. Whatever works for you and your budget!
To make your reveal even more special, consider adding an experience from the
Enchanting Extras Collection. One of my favorite ideas is a private
Fireworks Cruise, where you could share the gender of your little one as you watch the sky light up over the Seven Seas Lagoon! Alternatively, a
dessert party could be a sweet way to share the surprise. If you're looking for something a bit more whimsical, you could work with
Disney Floral & Gifts to have a custom gender reveal package created and delivered to your resort room or dinner location!
No matter how you choose to celebrate, I know this is going to be a memory your family will treasure forever! Wishing you the very best as you continue to plan your magical gender reveal, Maegan!
Cheers,
Brent
