Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique FAQ PART II - w/ Photos

[mom2rtk]

Just have to say your comment is making me excited about DD5's March appt at the BBB. I do not have your talent to sew but was hoping for a more original dress if DD would go along with it. I purchased that overpriced Cinderella wedding and pink 2-dress combo at the Disney Store before the holidays so Syd could wear the pink Cinderella dress that the mice and birds made for her the day of her BBB appt and CRT ressie.

I am SO excited thinking about it now - was starting to second guess my choice and worry (as us moms do) that I should have waited for the parks Rapunzel dress which she would probably like too, but I think she will be more unique this way. And most importantly, she is excited about the dress and it is NOT SCRATCHY which is huge in her mind! Even if people think it is sleeping beauty at first...

Thanks for the affirmation - so needed something like that today!

Hey all! Love the pictures! We are counting down our trip and I needed to ask a question that I believe was answered earlier, but I cannot remember what it is.

I have booked the largest package for the time being, and we are bringing our own dress. Can someone tell me how I get the dress to the location? We are at MK.

Second, I want to get some comfortable shoes, but pretty enough to have her picture with her dress. I don't want to get the shoes at BBB, as I have heard they are tough to walk around in all day.

Any help? TIA!!!

This may not be for everyone but I got my girls a pair of the sparkly Toms. They have a few pair of toms that are not sparkly now but they love them, wear them a lot and they are so comfortable so I thought the sparkly ones would be something they would be comfortable walking around in and they are pretty.

Great idea - they had some imitation ones at marshalls too.

Also I typically get DD silver sandals for summer and she wears those for BBB - Nordstrom has some that are about $35 now that are fully adjustable and have a nice sole (as opposed to cute, but cheaper made ones from gymboree, gap, childrens place) the Primigi brand has a nice silver mary jane and hannah anderson has a silver sandal this season too. And you can paint her toes pretty too

Since DD wears them much of the summer I dont mind spending more on a cute but functional good quality pair.

I hope this hasn't been asked here 100 times...

Does anyone know if BBB still has the Tangled Rapunzel dress/wig as a choice for the makeover? My daughter is making her wish and we go in April (she wants to have a makeover at Disney- that was her actual wish). She is now saying she is going to be made over as Rapunzel... so I am wondering if I should buy these things ahead of time and bring them or if they have them there.

If no one knows- is there an actual number I can call to find out?

Thanks for your help!

My daughter has the pink Cinderella Dress. She has worn it to CRT and Akershus on different trips. At Akershus, Ariel was the first one to recognize it. She made a big deal and got Cinderella and Jasmine to come over at the same time to admire Cinderella's "original" dress made by her mice friends. We had 3 princesses at our table and the picture of it turned out AWFUL b/c we were sitting next to a window. The sun was beaming through the windows into that dark dining room. I already felt like we were hoarding 3 princesses as other little girls were waiting their turn, so I couldn't bring myself to ask them to pose in a different spot, push over another table or two so I can get a perfect shot of this magical moment. My DD still talks about when all the princesses came over at the same time. I just wish I had been able to get a decent picture of it.

Hi Ladies,
We will be travelling to DW next month with DH's cousin's family. This will be my first experience with BBB as I only have a DS (13yo.) Needless to say I am thrilled that we will be "treating" DH's cousin's daughter (5yo) to BBB!!!
(DH says he doesn't know who is more excited, me or the 5yo!)
We have an 8:05am appointment followed by 9:05am ADR @CRT!
My concern is the dresses being itchy/scratchy and wanted to buy a slip for her to wear under her dress....problem is I haven't been able to find one!?!?!
I've looked at Wal-mart, Target, JCP, Sears, Macy's....do they sell slips for little girls anymore?!?!? Remember I have a son, and have never had to look for one before....
TIA

 

[chicagoshannon]

Hanna andersson has slips. But I wouldn't worry too much about it. Maybe just get an undershirt just in case.

Of the parks costumes, I think Jasmine is considered the itchiest. My daughter doesn't mind wearing them for dress up and for meals. We don't have her wear her dress in the park all day though. The places where they are "itchy" isn't where a slip would help anyway. The children I've heard say they were itchy are always complaining about the straps or the sleeves depending on the cosutme.

Now you have me all excited about getting an individualized dress. DD LOVES Cinderella and I would love to see her in that pink dress. Some of you bought some custom made dresses, right? Can you PM me the site? Are their any DIS members who make these??

Thanks!

Feel the waistlines... they are horribly itchy too. A HA slip was what we did with Tiana to make it comfy. Another thing we might try is a white tank top (target has some with thin satin trim style straps) which seems to work well under her dress which is sleeveless.... sleeves are definitely another ITCHY problem - another reason for the pink cindy costume route we have gone - Rapunzel was FAR too itchy in the sleeves for my DD5!

We are planning our second visit to WDW after 5 years. This time round, we'll be taking DD who will be 6. We left her at home previously because we felt the more than 24 hr flight would have been torturous for a one year old.

DD loves princesses and I'd like to give her a makeover at BBB. She has her own Aurora dress. Can she wear her own dress and we just get their the makeover package without dress?

Yes. This is what we did. They have different level packages. We did the Castle Package and have it booked again for our June trip. It includes hair, makeup and nail polish for about $50. They get to keep the makeup palette and they get a little crown and a mickey shaped rhinestone barrett (or hairpiece if they do the the diva/rock star look).

Thanks graceesmom! I can't wait to see DD all dressed up! She be so happy! We have 10 mths to go!

I havent read through all the thread, but was wondering if my daughter could get a makeover and be dressed in a tinkerbell outfit? We have done the princess thing and thought it would be cute to try someone different.

 

[royalgrandparents]

Super sorry if this has been asked before, but on disneyworld.com it says in the castle package it comes with "accessories". What does that include? Also, DD11 wears a 14/16. Do they have her size. Thanks!

Yes, she can be Tinkerbelle and get the package done. They don't even need to have a costume to get it done. My DGD was Tinkerbelle in the photo taken July 2011, I posted it a few pages back, page 180, on here with all 4 DGD's. It was the Disney Store Tinkerbelle Costume.

Thanks Ladies!
I will check Hanna Anderson out...
I was thinking about just a cami too...
I am assuming she will want to wear it ALL day while we are at MK

 

[KNovacovschi]

I let my DD know what the new age limit is now and she is not to happy about it. She didn't want the dress but wanted to get her hair done. Does anyone know why they changed the age limit or has it always been this way and I just didn't notice.
