Ladies....Help!

[Bob913]

We leave for WDW next Tuesday - our 30th anniversary. That night we are going to CRT (along with DD16) for dinner. I was thinking of getting DW a corsage but I don't see any on the Disney Florist site. Are they old fashioned? Would I end up embarrasing her? Should I just get something for the room?

 

[disney queen]

hhhmmm.........the room is a good idea. do you have an idea what your wife would be wearing to dinner that evening? if she is going a little dressy~more than theme park chic~perhaps a small corsage would be fine. here is a link to the florist www.disneyflorist.com or 1-407-827-3505. happy anniversary!

I think if my husband even remotely did something a little romantic, I wouldn't care what it was. If you like the idea of a corsage, go for it. She'll probably get asked what it's for and get lots of attention. Have a great anniversary!

 

[Maude4Disney]

I have to agree w/ disnut8. What a nice thing for you to do. My dh is a great guy, but don't think he would think of something like that. Have a great trip and Happy Anniversary!

 

[Gillian]

Either sounds very sweet!

The nice thing about something for the room is that it will last a while.

Happy Anniversary!

Get something for the room and a corsage! BUT,... don't forget DD! Get her a corsage as well,... something small but make her feel special on your special day. Congratulations!

 

[Lizzybee]

If it were me, I think a corsage would make me feel like I was on a special date with a very special man. It's a very sweet gesture.

 

[disney queen]

good idea!! something for the room and a corsage!

 

[Frantasmic]

Orchids make great corsages, but they don't last very long. Carnations don't look as good in a corsage, but they last longer.

Either flower will be on hand at the florist. I'd call though.

 

[GailT]

Bob, do you happen to have a twin seeing as I only live 15 minutes from you?
That is great what you wanna do for your wife, romantic is a great thing, now this is just my opinion, I wouldn't want a corsage to wear in Disney, but don't forget that is just me, Happy anniversary and have a great time.

 

[MickeysMommy]

I think it's incredibly sweet of you to want to do that. I'd love a corsage from the man I love.

 

[wendypooh]

How nice....... we just celebrated out anniv. and while DH is wonderful, I too don't think he'd think of doing something like that.

Bob, call the disney florist, tell them it's your anniv. and see what they can come up with. I'm sure no matter what it is, she will love it. I also agree, get DD a single rose with ribbon tied around it, just so she feels special as well.

Have a wonderful anniv. Congrats!!!!

 

[Twende]

Bob you are a sweet man! Yo have a very lucky and special wife!

I like the idea of a corsage and a bit of something for your DD. Call Disney and see what they can do or have CRT see if they can deliver it in a special way right before dinner!

Congratualtions!

 

[CanBeGrumpy]

I, personally would not want a corsage--it does seem very "old-fashioned" to me. I think of corsages as something my Dh would give to his mother, not to me. Someone mentioned getting your DD a single rose, and I'd have to say get your wife a single rose as well. I think that is much more romantic than a corsage. Of course, this is just my opinion--only you know what your wife would like. I hope my Dh knows that I would NOT want a corsage under any circumstances!! I think I will try to ease that into the dinnertime conversation tonight! Good luck and congratulations!

 

[marj70]

The thought is certainly wonderful and romantic, but I'd go more for flowers in the room myself. Not much of a corsage girl myself. I think age plays a part--my mother would adore it (I'm 34, to me it would be a bit embarrassing although I'd cherish the thought!). I think your daughter might be at that age where she doesn't like to stand out that much.

Either way you go, you are a wonderful and amazing man!!

Since you're going into a park, I'd probably choose flowers in the room. And while others have said to get DD something, she's old enough to understand this is your special day that she is tagging along on and not her day. So I personally wouldn't get something extra for her.

 

[jann1033]

we are celebrating our 30 next yr so congrats.! we have always made anniversaries a family occasion so i think it's nice to get something for daughter if you are giving it to wife in the restaurant if not, not really necessary imo but a nice gesture. .( we are taking the whole clan to wdw with us to celebrate "our" special day but to me our family of 30 yrs. is what makes it special)i think the corsage is nice if she likes attention as she may get "looks" the rest of the evening..if not i'd do the room thing. either way it will be nice.

 

[Tinkerbelle32]

I'm voting for the corsage, I think the whole idea is soooo romantic!!!

 

[gigi1313]

how 'bout brides ears instead?! maybe a groom's hat for you? and princess ears for dd? you could probably call the hat shop in mk and have them deliver them to crt for you to be waiting when you get to your table... wdw cm's are very good about those little extras! also, be sure to tell the restaurant in advance/have it added to your adr so they can sprinkle the table w/pixie dust too!

 

[eargal]

My mom's a florist and I've spent my whole life "helping" in the shop. If you do go with a corsage, consider a wrist worn one. The pin style are a little more old fashioned and you never know how they will hang on what they are pinned to (rayon vs cotton etc.)....

I love the single rose idea or a calla lilly with a ribbon.

It is really sweet of you to plan something so special for her.
