Belinda45 Posted March 9, 2005 #1 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I know this has been answered somewhere but just don't know where to look! My Bonus Mom (Step-mother) and I are on the April 19th sailing - her birthday is April 15. I've put it in the cruise personalizer to celebrate it the first night we are on ship. Can anyone tell me exactly what happens for a birthday celebration? Door decorations, etc.?:confused: Thanks in advance for your responses!

cruisingfreak Posted March 9, 2005 #3 Share Posted March 9, 2005 The waiters will gather around & sing Happy Birthday, when the cake is brought to the dinner table. Minette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted March 9, 2005 #4 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Since you are celebrating the first night onboard, you might want to make sure to alert the waiter about it, just in case. Also, if you are not at an assigned table, let the waiter know about the birthday so he can provide the cake. The room steward should have the balloons put in place without any reminder. Enjoy your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda45 Posted March 9, 2005 Author #5 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Glad to know they will do something! We have assigned seating but I will still alert the waiter. Thanks for the good advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regnig Posted March 9, 2005 #6 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Belinda although the 'cakes' have improved over the years they don't stand up to most of the menu dessert items. I recommend if you see something else you would like make certain you order it and then just have a small polite taste of the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda45 Posted March 10, 2005 Author #7 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Thanks for the advice - this is my first cruise so I don't have any idea what to expect so all the advice really helps! Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HELENROSE Posted March 10, 2005 #8 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Definately check with the waiter. My DH put into our personalizer my birthday, which was the day before boarding. He put down the first formal night for the cake. It arrived 4 nights later. I don't know why, so just check and make sure they bring it on the date you want it. This happened this past Jan. on the Dawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda45 Posted March 10, 2005 Author #9 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Thanks again - I just want to make it as special for her as I can - she's a great Bonus Mom (stepmother)!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
