Oh my goodness! You just made my day!! I want to do this with my Disney Niece in December, but my husband told me I'm too old! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!

I'm sorry I haven't gone through the entire thread...

How long does a middle package take? We have 3 girls that'll love this and I may even get my boy to do the prince package too. If I can schedule this and rearrange our CRT reservation I want to do it our first day.

We try to keep all princess experiences around the 30 min. mark, give or take a few minutes obviously . The knights (boys) style takes 5-10 minutes.

How short? We can often leave short hair half down in the back and tease the bun on top and make it look just as beautiful

That would probably work!

I think I was there when you came in on Spring Break!!! In fact I think I was working cause I know the FGITs who did your makeovers!!!

The FGMIT were sooo sweet! We had such a blast! We ended up going to MK and closed it out lol. Everyone called us princesses the entire rest of the night, it was the best

Oh my goodness! You just made my day!! I want to do this with my Disney Niece in December, but my husband told me I'm too old! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!

NO ONE is EVER too old to be a princess Have fun getting a makeover with your niece!

 

[disneymegs]

We love all princesses! And the older ones are so much fun cause they always love to talk a lot!

Thanks for sharing these pictures! My two sisters-in-law and I are doing this with our daughters (11, 6, 6, and 3) and we are soooo excited!!

I got up at 5 am to call and make the reservations for it for very first day I could call and we made it all in between 8 and 830 am, then have reservations at Cinderella's castle at 1025 for breakfast!!

I just booked BBB in MK for DD for our Nov. trip. The CM on the phone said we should arrive 30 minutes before our appointment. Do we really need to get there that early? I was thinking 10-15 minutes early, 30 seems like a long time.
Also, are you supposed to tip the FGIT? If yes, can you put it on your card like you do at the restaurants? How much is appropriate? My daughter will be getting the crown package.

15 is fine

15 minutes early is good. FGITs do accept tips but it has to be in cash. It can't be added to your total or put on your credit card. Most people give anywhere between $5-20 depending on your experience

This is a question for a friend. She has two children: a daughter who is 10 & a son who is 7. She just told them they will be visiting Disney in October. They are all soooo excited & happy. Her daughter is very happy to meet all the characters & princesses. My friend is so happy to have a 10 yr old daughter to be very excited about doing the whole princess/character thing. But her daughter is very tall for her age(looks like 14 instead of just turning 10) is there a BBB package for simple hair/makeup for the pre-teens. Also what about boys? Need description & prices. Also any experiences/opinions at BBB from moms with older girls who still love the princesses?

The 10 year old, if she still fits into a size 14-16, can still do the Castle package if she wants. If she doesn't want to the Castle package (which includes the dress/shoes/wand/crown/hair/nails and makeup) she can choose to do own of the two smaller packages; the Crown or the Coach. The Crown includes hair/nails/makeup for about $55 dollars and the Coach includes makeup and hair for about $50.

For the boys the castle has night package where they spike and color the guys hair and draw a Mickey in the back. It also comes with a Sword and Shield and is $15. Also boys can head over the Pirates League where they do Pirate transformations.

I would think that this is Disney and that big Princesses are welcome with open arms! The CMs know when they are dealing with an older Princess so they will tailer the experience to her age and her likes etc. I would go for it and have a wonderful time!!

Might have been answered already. So, sorry in advance if it is repeating. But I have a res for the Castle Package for my 9 year old sister. She wants to be aurora. Should I plan on the basic cost of 189.95+tax, or does this change by the dress she chooses, so on and so forth. Thanks.

This is a great question. I thought you could put the tip on your card too when we went last week. I left my bag with the cash with dh. When it came time to pay, there was no way to tip my FGIT. And she tried so hard to make my shy little one talk. I felt bad that I had no way to tip her. I planned on coming on here to let you guys know so it wouldn't happen to any of you. It was a great experience for dd 8. She wore a shirt I made her, and one of the tutu type skirts from castle couture. Another tip - they don't have those in the BBB. I thought I could buy one there. She got the Jasmine skirt and it was really pretty.

They only have 1 Aurora dress, but if you decide you don't want shoes, or crown or wand, or pick something else, it could change the price. That is the base price. We always have brought our own dress, but each time my DD has picked a crown there to wear.

 

[keatonsmommy03]

My DD has a BBB apt in 2 weeks, so excited this will be her first. I have her down for the pkg w/o the dress as we bought hers ahead of time. I still wanted to add the photo pkg, does anybody know how much that is?

TIA
