First Wedding Anniversary WDW Trip

We also have an anniversary in October. Our 39th!! We were going to go next year for our 40th but we actually have been together 40 years so this September worked out better for us and we will be leaving in 18 days. Just spending time together is what makes our trips special. We don't have any real plans and will go with the flow. Staying for the first time at CBR and can't wait. Have a great time in January.

Congratulations on 40 years!!!!

We went to WDW on our first anniversary too & it was also my husband's very first trip! That was over 28 years ago & we have been going back nearly every year since that first year in 1987. It is our happy place & we look forward to each & every trip. Just being there together on our first anniversary was so special. We did not have a lot of money to spend while there, so we were on a pretty tight budget, but it didn't matter. We still had a blast & look forward to celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary there next year!
Congratulations on your 1st anniversary & I wish you many, many happy years together:mjump:

We've gone for our anniversary three times. Once I used the WDW Floral & Gifts to have our room done with rose petals, a gift basket, etc. When she walked in she flipped out....not because of the surprise, but because she thought that someone had broken in and trashed our room. It took her a minute to process it. That was fun.

This last trip (in April), we got special treatment at restaurants whenever we wore our "Happy Anniversary" buttons. We got two free desserts out of it. At Narcoosee's, we ate dinner, went to the dock to watch the fireworks, and when we got back to our table the server had brought us a special dessert. It was awesome.

Thank you goofygirl! I hope my husband also enjoys his first trip and wants to come back!

Hahahah, azcavalier!!!

I love these stories!! <3

If he ends up really liking it there, I'm thinking I may upgrade our tix to annual passes before the trip ends. We're only over in SC, so short trips during the year would be easy.

Hi ya, congrats on your Anniversary. Hubby and I went to Disney this past April to celebrate our25th. We had only a couple of days planned at the parks, while we were on our way to MK for our first day, it started to pour rain so instead of continuing through the gate we bee lined to the boat launch and went over to Fort Wilderness for an unplanned breakfast at the Trails End. The rest of the day we spent just boating and monorailing to different lounge areas and resorts. We even managed to ride the horse carriage at Port Orleans Riverside. It was an impromptu day and most memorable. Have a wonderful time on your trip! :wave:

Congrats and many more! We just celebrated our 30th at the World in May and had a BLAST! My favorite planned moment was having dinner at Be Our Guest. What an awesomely themed place! Favorite unplanned moments were FINALLY riding Dumbo and Mad Tea Party! Favorite moment of our trip was just being able to walk down Main Street USA with my hubby! Have an amazing celebration!

Congrats! We go yearly at the end of September or early October and it just happens to be our Anniversary. We went for the first time together for our 1st Anniversary/Honeymoon trip. This year we are on year 12 and leave in 25 days (not that anyone is counting). Every year we try to do something new and different. As this is a first trip, make sure to stop and not try to do too much and stop and enjoy. As I am the primary planner, I make sure I set things up that DH will like and can be a bit of a surprise for him. Last trip, I got Anna and Elsa fast passes. Oddly enough, that started his love of princesses and getting his picture taken! Now, it's a mission to find a princess he doesn't have a picture with.

Have tons of fun and Happy Anniversary!!!:party:

bunch, thank you! Awwww, I love that!! So neat how those little moments when all the plans go out the window, can be so memorable.

That sounds so wonderful Auntie B! I was thinking about checking out Be Our Guest. I haven’t been back since it opened, and it looks simply magical!

Happy Almost anniversary tiggersgirl! I used to always visit in late Sept as well, so it’s funny that with our first anniversary on Oct 10, we’re actually waiting til Jan. But, it just worked out best for this year.

Thanks so much for sharing everyone! I just loved reading these sweet stories! My husband isn’t into Disney stuff, but I think he’ll love WDW anyway. It’s such an experience. At least I really hope he will!

Congratulations! When you check in, ask for an anniversary button. We've always gotten a great reaction from CM's and fellow travelers when we've worn them in the past. Have also gotten some nice freebies, like desserts, sodas and Fastpasses (back when you had to use the machines).

Be sure to get the buttons! I forget I have one on and a Happy Birthday or Anniversary greeting always makes me feel the magic.

We went to WDW for one day 40 years ago for our honeymoon and a lot has certainly changed since our first visit! We ate at the Crystal Palace that day and it was a cafeteria! I was in awe of that beautiful building. We split a plate of spaggetti and meatballs because everything was so expensive.

Our 30th anniversary we went to Calfornia Grill with our girls. I ordered a cake. The presentation and the CAKE were fabulous. The only problem was getting it back to the room. I ordered the smallest one and it was still a lot of cake. We ate on it for days.

This August was our 40th and we are celebrating at WDW in December. I have booked a dessert party and hoping a BOG dinner reservation opens up. This trip we are staying at Shades of Green for 10 nights. Can't wait!:cloud9:

Have a great time!

I proposed and honeymooned there. Also, our wedding anniversaries are always there.

We try and eat at some of the places we went to on our first trip. So pick some places you think you'd like.

Plus you can get pins (first timer and anniversary) from employees.

My wife also likes to get a new commemorative ornament from the xmas store at DTD.

Congrats on your first anniversary!

:congrats:

I'd say do something special, but will indeed be special as his first visit. Hopefully the first of many!

We choose WDW for our honeymoon 20 years ago. Didn't make it back for the 5th, but did make the 10th and spent the 15th on the DCL.

Headed back for our 20th in just over 45 days and looking forward to a Keys to the Kingdom Tour without the kids!

Good luck!
