Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique ~ ALL you need to know + Tons of Pix ~ Updated 10/2012

[1stvisit0909]

My daughter is turning 8 this month, and she asked to do it again on our next trip. This will be her fourth time and she is still as excited about it as she was the first time.

My 7 and 11 year olds both loved it. The 7 year old got dress and all, the 11 got the pop hair.

I completely forgot about the pop hair!! Then I might be able to talk her out of it (the dress), but she's still little and I'm not quite ready to let her grow up so quickly!!

My DD7 wore a sleeveless Sleeping Beauty dress with pink pop hair and Sleeping Beauty crown. It looked really cute, we didn't have the pop hair sticking out all funky, it was more subdued. She then wore the braided bun with a small crown and Rapunzel's wedding dress the next day. IMO, the pop style is very versatile.

anyone know where to get a princess dress that will be comfortable to wear in the heat of summer? My DD wants to be Cinderella but those dresses just look hot and itchy! I tried talking about just wearing a sundress with Cinderella on it but she really wants to wear the traditional Cinderella gown. I was hoping someone might know where to get a light-weight cotton one or something that isnt' heavy and scratchy.

Does anyone have a picture of the princess cinch bag? Curious about the size. Also, while googling, I read that there is a place to build a wand (DTD, I think?) Is that still there? Has anyone done it?

The bag is about a foot long by 10 inches wide. I have never heard of build a wand, but the toy store has build your own light saber.

Here's a pic!!

I would love to see pictures of ones that had this done.

I have booked the courtyard package for BBB at $89.95. We have bought her a princess dress each trip and are planning to again. I know the dresses are $65 in the park and that BBB has a package including a dress and accessories for $189.95 (includes the photo package but we will have PP+ anyway), so what accessories does that include? I'm not sure whether it is better value to just buy the dress in the park (knowing the can be bought cheaper online etc) or to get these accessories and pay the extra $100 at BBB?

Are there different styles/colors of T-shirts and tutus available? Anyone have pics of these?

I was looking at the poll at the beginning of this thread and noticed there was nothing for Tinkerbell. Do they still sell Tinkerbell costumes at BBB? I will probably buy a dress before we go at the Disney Store but my daughter wants to be Tinkerbell the next time she goes to BBB.

I know I saw the pink one, but that would be awesome if there were more colors available.

Also does anyone know if the FGIT would spray some glitter hairspray in DD1 (will be 20 months) hair while she is doing DD3's stuff?

 

[tryplm]

This is a pretty good look at the hairstyle

This was her Merida pose. She told Merida that she is a warrior princess, just like her.

I just love this one of my DD & Minnie, so I had to share it

When we were there in Nov, this was the only style/color of shirt & skirt that they had. We added the tiara for about $12. There is also a BBB parasol that you can add. I think DD got one, so I can post pics of that if anyone wants to see.

It's not a hairspray, but yes, ask for pixie dust and they will sprinkle it.

When we were there in Sept. they only had pink. You can buy the shirt separate too even if you're not getting the courtyard package - I think we paid $12 because DD went for the pop princess but still wanted the tee.

 

[mummabear]

I'm sure you can upgrade your booked package when you show up but can you downgrade? I have booked the courtyard and now i'm not sure its worth the the extra money over the the crown package for the t-shirt/tutu, so do I have to call or can I just let them know when we arrive?

My daughter is scheduled for the Courtyard Makeover with the twists and the ponytail. I know you can buy a tiara to add on. Are the ones you buy there like haircombs or with the band with the teeth at the end? I'm thinking the haircomb style might be easier to be put in to the top of the ponytail and would stay better, but I'm not really sure. I was looking at this online: http://www.amazon.com/Mini-Bridal-C...UTF8&colid=2XVRA8G7BYUPQ&coliid=IXXMSYS1CQBG9 It says the comb is 1.5 inches high and about 3" in width. How does that compare to the ones you can buy at BBB? Is it too big? How much do the tiaras in the store run? I was hoping to see their selection online to get an idea for size and style but I have only seen pictures of the tiara that comes with the regular princess makeover and huge crowns she'd be unlikely to keep wearing.

Also, I bought a pair of bling-y clip on earrings. Would the FGiT put them on her before the big reveal, or if not, would she allow me to step in and put them on her before they turn her around? My daughter hasn't seen them yet.

question: if you get the courtyard package with the tshirt/tutu do you still have the option to get any hairstyle that you want? that was my understanding but I think I read somewhere on this thread that if you get the courtyard package you are stuck with one haristyle with no choice. if there is no choice, what does the haristyle look like? anyone have pics? why would they restrict you to only one hairstyle choice? it is more expensive than a few other packages where you have a hairstyle choice...

cyros, I don't know about the earrings but if you are worried about the crown not being the same as the disney ones look on the disneystore.com under "costumes". they are selling crown combs that look very similar in size and style to the BBB ones for around $9 or $10.
