My wife hasn’t been there and we are considering driving to Mt. Rainier. Details on weatger and road condotions will help. We plan to stay in the car and enjoy the views while parked and the drive along.

And tbh i dont remember driving to the paradise resort was that special. Not that it isnt beatiful, the thing is the higher u drive up the smaller the mountain looks to u. And paradise isnt high enough to provide the breath taking overview since u dont plan hiking (and it is suicide to hike now anyway for most people)
and if it is birthday tour i suggest somewhere close so u can return on same day with ease to stay safe. I miss my trip to north cascade loop (sr 20) and Ross dam a lot more than mt rainier. But it could be a little tiring if u want to make it back on the same day. The time i visited there we had a thunderstorm in the mountains out of nowhere and the view was kinda like life changing exp
I wouldn’t say it’s very drive friendly. It’s nice but there are better options if you just want to drive in your car. Checkout Cascade loop or north cascades instead. North cascades probably won’t open for a while.
