We celebrated my husband's birthday at Citrico's....we told the waitress it was his birthday....and when she brough dessert, they had written Happy Birthday to him and I believe there was a candle.. Citrico's is one of the signature restaurants at the Grand Floridian...

I would mention it when you make ADRs ("This trip is to help us celebrate my husband's big-40!") and then again when you check-in. They may or may not offer to (or unilaterally decide to) do anything special for you. Luck of the draw. To guarantee them making a big deal of it, order a birthday cake in advance. The price is pretty minimal, and that'll assure some type of public recognition.

When you go in a park or DTD, stop by guest services and get a "happy birthday" button. They have different buttons at each place.

I was given one on the boat between MGM and BC one night by a wonderful CM named Darlene. This was after standing at the front of the boat .. with 2 little kids .. while everyone sang happy birthday to us! DD24 sat at the back laughing her head off the whole time knowing she was the one who yelled out when Darlene asked if there were any birthdays!

Anyway .. my point is .. with the button on his birthday ~will~ be recognized. Sometimes it is smiles and well wishes from fellow visitors or a free brownie added to our tray at Casey's to fast passes to move us from an hour long que at Test Track. At Rose and Crown, I was given a free dessert with a candle and a nice card signed by all the CMs.

We had noted my birthday on the reservation at the Yachtsman Steakhouse, but no where else. There, I got a cute little cake and a card.
