Hi there, Doug! From one person in the Pacific Northwest to another, welcome to planDisney. Thanks for bringing us your question, I'm pleased to help.
I love that you will be celebrating an anniversary at the Disneyland Resort; I can't think of a more magical place. You can find complimentary celebratory buttons at City Hall on Main Street, U.S.A. in Disneyland Park, or at the Chamber of Commerce on Buena Vista Street in Disney California Adventure Park. I believe there are a couple of options that will suit your occasion. There's a "Happily Ever After" button and an "I'm Celebrating:" button for you to choose from, or even ask for both!
Have you thought about where you might like to dine during your special occasion, Doug? Advance dining reservations (if you haven't made one already) are available 60 days in advance. It looks like the popular places that I'd recommend for special occasions, unfortunately, don't have any reservations open at this time. However, don't let that dismay you. You can always try
Mobile Dine Walk-up Availability for select restaurants. From this list, I recommend the
Blue Bayou or
Carthay Circle Restaurant. You'll want to be near the restaurant in order to join the list from the
Disneyland app. Again, due to popularity, you may not be able to join the walk-up list or dine at your preferred time. Flexibility is key and something to keep in mind when considering these options. You can also continue to
check for dining reservation availability as Guests' plans change often. It's also good to have a backup plan, just in case.
During your visit, you might also consider taking an evening boat ride on the
Storybook Land Canal Boats in Fantasyland. There's a section where you'll float under arches with twinkling lights and it's just lovely. Of course, there's always the nighttime spectacular,
Wondrous Journeys with fireworks. I can't think of a better way to end the evening.
No matter what you decide to do, I wish you a wonderful time celebrating at the Happiest Place on Earth! I hope this was helpful, Doug. Please come back to visit us with any other questions you may have as you continue to plan your visit. Until then, have a magical day!
