Special attention for 25th Anniversary

[lundve]

So I just made ADRs for my BIL and SIL at California Grill on their 25th wedding anniversary. They do not know about these ressies as I want it to be a surprise. We are all on the DDP so the meals will be covered. I made sure to make the ressies late so that they could still be seated when the fireworks at Magic Kingdom go off.

My question is - is there anything else I could do with this reservation in advance or once we arrive at WDW - that would further enhance this special dinner without their knowledge.

If I can't do anything for dinner does anyone have any other special or unique ideas?

How much are you willing to spend? If you have the money and the ideas, Disney will do it!

How about ordering an Anniversary cake for them to arrive after their meal! Call the 407-WDW-DINE back and get the number for special dessert orders for that restaurant. Make sure their Anniverary information is noted on your dining res. They may do something special for them.

Where are they staying?
If it's a Disney resort, you can call them and make sure it is noted on the reservation and ask front desk if they will deliver some balloons. They do this for us every event we celebrate there. Balloons in the room and a great card from our favorite characters! It's such a special memory.

Well, those are a couple ideas, I hope that helps.

We booked the Fireworks cruise for after our Anniversary meal next month, that's something you could do, but it ofcourse costs $$$.

Have fun! You're so nice to do this for them!!!!

We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary at the CG and it was perfect. When I made the ressies I made sure to let them know that we were celebrating our 25th, When we arrived, we were seated at a perfect window table with a fantastic view of the MK and the Seven Seas Lagoon. We timed our ressies so that we were just finishing our entrees when "Wishes" began. The CG gave us complimentary glasses of champagne with our meal.
I had planned a special surprise for my DH ( a new wedding band special ordered from Ireland). I slipped it to our waiter who took it back to the pastry chef. When dessert was served, my DH received a large plate covered with a silver dome. When our waiter removed the dome, the wedding band and its box were beautifully displayed on the plate with the words "Happy 25th Anniversary" written around the edge of the plate in chocolate. Of course, my DH received his "real" dessert too!
I am sure that if you call the CG and speak to the pastry chef, he/she could prepare a special dessert for your BIL and SIL that would celebrate their anniversary.
