Destination Disney!!!!!!!
Disney World is where dreams come true and and in this case where birthdays are celebrated!!!! You may have heard of destination weddings but what about destination parties?????? This spring I had the privilege to take my children to Disney World and it was also my sons birthday. So we celebrated Disney style. If you are considering having a destination party there are a few things that you must know:
- Be up front with your guest... If you are paying for their accommodations then let them know that ..but if they have to pay their own way make it clear.... You don't want people to wait to the last minute and can't afford to go.
- if you want your child to meet one of the characters then you must ..plan,plan,plan ahead!!!! Those slots fill up quickly .... So book in advance because you won't be able to get in the day of.
- to celebrate in the park can be costly... So do something small in the park then continue the celebration at the hotel...I am all about getting the best deal for my dollar.. So shop the local stores because the beauty of Florida is that every store is filled with Disney Memorbila.
Here are some of the FREE birthday perks that Disney offer:
Inform Cast Members/Travel Agent when you book your reservation that it is a Birthday celebration and provide them with the name and age of the Birthday child.
Let your Resort know when you check-in. Sometimes they will do something special for your child ranging from autographed character pictures to balloons in your room. This does not always happen but we have heard of many instances where it has.
Visit ‘City Hall’ on Main Street in the Magic Kingdom, ‘Guest Services' in EPCOT, 'Guest Services' in Disney's Hollywood Studios and ‘Guest Services’ in the Animal Kingdom for a ‘"IT'S MY BIRTHDAY" button. This always generates special attention from the Cast Members in the Parks. Click Here to the other celebration buttons you can choose from.
Make sure your child has an ‘Autograph Book’ when they wear the button. They will receive special Birthday greetings from the Characters.
Tell the server about the Birthday at all meals on this day. They will bring a decorated cupcake to the table (sit down dining only) with a candle in it.
If you are staying at a ‘Disney Resort’, contact the front desk and request a special birthday phone call for your child from a Disney Character.
Purchase a passport in EPCOT to have stamped in each country around the ‘World Showcase’ and make sure the Cast Member’s who signs it know it’s your child’s Birthday. They will receive Birthday greetings in many different languages.
Elegant Events By Errika hopes that all your Birthdays be filled with. Love, laughter and MAGiC!!!!!!
