1 How much time should I allow? I have 2 princesses.....will they be styled at the same time or one after the other?

2. Do all the girls wear princess gowns.....we have plenty of gowns but not sure I want to haul them in hot months. We have several cute princess character dresses....do any of the little girls do this?

3. Is there a picture of the tee shirt/tutu that is described in one of the packages?

1) my DS and DD did this and we had one fairy godmother in training that did both of thm.. So they went one after the other. It was nice then so I could get pictures of both of them. However when we did the pirates league the next year, they did both DD and DS at the same time by two different stylists.
2) not all the girls wear princess gowns. However, I know there are a lot that do! My DD wore princess gown one year and then a Minnie dress the next.
Here is a pic of my DD the past two years we did this.

Two quick questions

Does anyone have any recent pics of the courtyard package?


Also are you able to dress up like tinkerbell as one of the dress options for the castle package?
Thanks

Does anyone have a current picture of the Rapunzel dress? Also, will the FGMIT put on the Rapunzel hair piece/long braid they sell? Or it would probably fallmofI imagine?

Last two years both of mine were styled at the same time. Last year at least they were by each other the previous year they were far apart which really stunk.

I don't think they sell the braid there. If you have one, they will most likely put it on though. Be aware it's really heavy on the head. We bought one a few years ago and my daughter will only wear it for a very short time because it was so heavy and hurt her head.

Does anyone know how much tinker bell wings are at BBB? I'm trying to decide if I want to buy them here or there. If I can save a bunch I'll get them at our Disney store, if not there.

I was thinking about doing the princess tea at the GF with my DD 4, I haven't heard much about it and I was just wondering what you didn't like about it. Thanks

I have two girls, now 7 and 3.5, and they both did BBB just after they turned 3. I was pretty sure my first one would love it, as she is a princess to the core. I was surprised when she picked the pink hair thing, but she ate the whole thing up!

My second one is definitely not as princess-y, but I didn't want her to be left out if she wanted to do it. She definitely wanted to, looked so serious the whole time, and I wasn't sure if she was really liking it- but then we got outside, and she just looked up at me with this big smile, and I was so glad I have her the chance to decide.

They definitely don't pressure you, they were so sweet the whole time. I say go and see what your daughter thinks.have fun!

Thank you all for your great advice! I will keep the appointment and let her decide! She now says she wants to be mermaid Ariel for the Halloween party!

I see a lot of sold out times for BBB, I might cancel our second appointment Wednesday Oct 9th at 11:55 at MK as we don't need two! I didn't know our plans at 180 days out so made possible reservations. Please PM me if you are interested.

We have an appt at BBB for Tuesday the 17th before the MNSSHP. My question is are the cinderella shoes comfortable enough to wear all night? My DD already has the cinderella costume so all we need is shoes. I am debating on whether I should buy her silver ballet flats before we leave Saturday to wear or to wait and buy the shoes at BBB. Any advice would be appreciated!

Also: My other DD is only 2 and will be belle, we got her gold ballet flats from target to match her dress. But since she cannot do BBB can I buy a small crown like the one included in the Princess hairstyle for her to wear?

I would do flats for your older DD as well. And yes, you can buy a small crown for the 2 year-old.

I would suggest bringing your own shoes if you're unsure. Last year my DD left her sparkle shoes in the resort room because she wanted to wear her sneakers, then decided a princess needed fancy shoes so we went to buy her the glass slippers. One size was too small and the other was too big so needless to say, she wore her sneakers and I regretted not grabbing the other shoes as backup

We have done BBB twice. My daughter was older so we did things a little different. The first time we did a long gown because we had dinner reservations at Cinderella’s Royal Table afterwards. She was 9 though and while she still loves princesses, she didn’t want to dress like any particular one, so I got her a long formal dress on ebay. I got the accessories on ebay too. The dress was $20. The sandals were from Payless and just the sandals she wore to church at home. Here she is.

Our 2nd time was in June of this year. She had mentioned that she was okay with not eating at the castle again and, she wanted something more comfortable to run around the park in like a cute skirt and a tank top. I think there are some post of children who had the courtyard package with the tutu and t-shirt on here. My dd didn't want the hairstyle that comes with the t-shirt and tutu package though. So I pieced an outfit together.

She was heavily into pettiskirts, so I found a pink one on ebay. The tank is from Wal-Mart. The vest is from Tullys.com. She was 10, so I did some more grown-up accessories I found at a store around here called Glitter that has everything for $1 or $2. Again, sandals from Payless. Here she is.

Is there a thread (I couldn't find one) where people post their BBB cancellations, similar to the dining one?

I am needing a reservation on the morning of Jan. 3 between 8-9 for one and have not been able to book it! I started calling at our 180 day mark

Thanks!

Can anyone tell me about how long BBB takes, includes taking the pictures after? And where do they take those pictures? We have an 8:15 in the castle and I'm just trying to figure out when to make our first FP+ selection for the day. Thanks!!

 

[buzzmom12]

Our appt was at 8 for our daughter and we were done before the park opened prob like 5-10 minutes before it opened. I came back to pick out the pictures later in the day. We got the deluxe package. Enjoy. Loved it!!!

My DD has issues with walking in dress shoes without socks for long distances. Instead I blinged up her converse for each princess dress. So easy to do and I know her feet will be comfortable

I watched the entire thing on YouTube and it looks boring and not worth the money at all! We are skipping it and just doing regular tea.

I would say 30-45 minutes for the appointment and then 10-20 for pictures, depending on if you have to wait in line for that. That is right across the way at Castle Couture, which used to be tink treasures.
