Wishes (or Illuminations) birthday cruise experiences?

[disneyjenca]

I've scheduled a birthday Wishes cruise from the Poly.

I've heard really good things about the Wishes cruise, but I was wondering if anyone had an experience with the birthday cruise -- what are the decorations like, how's the cake? Pictures would be wonderful!

Last January I surprised my DBF with an Illuminations cruise. There was a big banner on the side that said Happy Birthday and balloons tied to the back of the boat. My SIL brought a cake, plates, napkins. etc. and we brought a small cooler with beverages.

It was great!!!

We did a birthday Illuminations cruise for DH in May. They had balloons and a Happy Birthday banner on the boat. Our cake was made at the Boardwalk Bakery. It was sooo wonderful. It was a white cake with white chocolate icing and berries on top. I have a wonderful picture of it, but I don't know how to post pictures.
Pm me if you want me to email you the picture. The cake was so good I am thinking about heading over to the BW in September and buying another one. There was also sodas. We shared with another family from the disboards.

I would think you would have a cake from the GF on a wishes cruise. If you have any questions PM me.
