I ask the MS representative to note that our May trip to SSR is to celebrate DH's 35th and DD's 5th birthdays. We wil be there on the the actual days of their birthdays. It is noted on the confirmation letter. Will SSR do anything special for them since this is noted?
 
They might do something, but I definitely wouldn't count on it.

What you'll want to do is get a button (I know you can get it at Town Hall in MK and not sure about the other parks) which will "announce" the birthdays. CM's have been known to do some nice things when they see them.

I think DIsney has built up expectations around things like this since they've so often done some really nice things. Then some people have been disappointed when they didn't get special treatment.

During our last trip my DW and I celebrated our anniversary and received no special treatment from Disney. It was still a wonderful place to celebrate it!

I'd mention the birthday on any Dining Reservation you make for that day too. Couldn't hurt. But the button seems to be the best "advertisement" that CM's respond to.

Sounds like a nice trip...enjoy! :)
 
You might want to order something from Disney Florist to be sure something is done.

It's very hit & miss with some people getting balloons & cards and others, nothing.

Don't get your hopes up.

Be sure to pick up Birthday Buttons at guest relations in the parks

I celebrated a milestone birthday (aargh) a couple of years ago at OKW. The MS lady could tell by the rather complicated reservation that something was going on. She asked and I told.

I did not expect anything from OKW at all. But I was so pleased when they wished me a happy birthday at check-in and I was really pleased when they showed up at my door with some mylar balloons and a card signed from 'the gang'. They did not have to do any of it, so it was all the more special.
 


when you eat out - especially character dinning - they generally ask are you celebrating something - so tell them.

you might get a birthday cake for the person. plus sometimes they sing to her/him.

hope it works for you.

I was in MK last year on my B-day and got a button. I got lovely treatment all day from CM's and a candle in my dessert at Narcosee's. This year I'll be at "home" on my B-day and that's present enough for me!

Just a heads up...peggyssweetsandmore is no longer valid. Peggy posted that she is starting a new job as a teacher, so can't take any more orders and is halting her business for the forseeable future.
 


We go to celebrate my son's birthday every year. The only resort that ever did anything was SSR. He had balloons and a card from Donald waiting in the room when we got back from the pool. It absolutely made his vacation. It seems to be up to the CM at check-in's discretion.
