Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique FAQ PART II - w/ Photos

[MommyOfTwoIL]

We are going to Disney in mid March and it's our first trip as a family. I have an appt for my 4 yr old at BB Boutique.

Do you just change your daughter into their princess dresses just before their appt? My appt is around 2:30 and then we have an early dinner that day with the Princesses so I want to keep her in her dress afterwards for dinner.

If anyone can provide me with any tips, I would appreciate it!

This thread is full of great tips!

My DD wears a dress daily to the parks, we bring one for each day, so she just wore hers to the park that day, but our appointment was a little earlier and we didn't have much planned before her appointment. But You can dress you DD before hand if you want, or just have her wear her dress there all day if she likes to do that.

ALLEARS says
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Downtown Disney Marketplace will be closed January 18 until March 5, 2010, while the World of Disney undergoes enhancements to its air conditioning system.

I hope this is not true. I have a booked ressie at the DTD location for 2/2.

I also have a reservation on the 27th of January. I do not think this is true. I will call today to find out.

 

[Katy13]

I just called this morning....the CM I spoke with said that the DTD location is closed until the 31st of January. She said that they computer would not have let people make reservations during the time it was to be closed.

Sorry if I confused anyone, I was just on Allears and noticed that - perhaps they are wrong. Didn't mean to frighten anyone!

Oh, I'm still frightened!!! I'll have a very sad 4 year old princess if she can't go to the BBB. A friend of mine (a Disney guru, IMO) said that she find that this website and Allears are more reliable then the CM's....so now I'm worried again!

 

[Katy13]

I'm being a little nutty about this, but I called back and spoke with 2 more CM's. The 1st one said she did not know anything about BBB being closed and she "books these reservations all the time". The 2nd lady I spoke with was SO nice and said she did not know about that either, but she shows availability for the 1st week of Feb (when we will be there) so that shows to her that they will be open at that time.

I'm still nervous, but booked a reservation for the MK location for the day after our originally scheduled one. This is the ONLY thing DD4 has been talking about for MONTHS and I would be crushed if she couldn't do it.

Hi everyone.

For those of you with a Disney Store nearby, I thought you might be interested in an "event" they have going on next weekend.

I was at the Disney Store in Natick, MA last week and got an "invitation" for "The Perfect Princess Party" that is on Saturday, January 30th. I thought that those of you with girls looking forward to BBB might get a kick out of this as well. As far as I can tell it's a free event.

you can see it for yourself at www.disneystore.com/updates, then click on "upcoming events"

The flyer I got at the store has more info than the website though, it says:

Saturday Jan 30th, 11-11:45am, and 1-1:45pm

"Come dressed in your favorite gown and participate in our Royal Princes Lesson Plan:
-Perfect Curtsy
-Princess Wave
-Princess Posture
-Proper Tea"

It also says that light refreshments will be served and coloring sheets will be provided for the young Princes who attend

Thanks for the info - this is exactly what we need to get our disney fix while waiting for our May trip!

No problem. Let me know how it is! We will actually be in WDW so we will miss it. When I told the salesperson this, she suggested I go to a store down there! If it rains, I'll be thinking about it!

Does anyone know if the DTD "World of Disney" counts as a disney store? Not so much for the event, but I'm wondering if they carry the disney store dresses, as opposed to the ones you can only buy in the parks.

No World of disney carries park dresses.

 

[princessekrus]

Thanks Jen. Good to know. Not like DD really needs any more dresses anyway but it's good to know what the options will be.

I love the Tiana dresses, but my disney store only has large sizes, and the online store only has xxs. I'll be interested to see if there is one at BBB.

 

[jenseib]

I beleive they do have Tainna at BBB, which is the same as what the parks carry. I think someone once posted a picture, but I don't know where it is now. LOL!

 

[sabrecmc]

We had a great time at the BBB on Saturday. Our FGiT was awesome. I tried to tip her $10, but she said they can't accept gratuities. I've always tipped there and at the Pirate Experience. Is this new?

 

[jenseib]

I knwo for about the 1st year it was open they didn't allow it, and then they could. Last I knew they still could recieve them.

 

[mom of 3G's]

I think the most common hairstyle is the princess, but a while back I remember seeing a picture of a little girl with the Pop princess hairstyle and she was adorable. Does anybody have pictures of the Pop princess?

 

[joy13]

Yes - they do have a Tianna dress in the Parks - it is really pretty!

I was able to tip my DD's FGIT'ing in October.

 

[Dixiemom]

Here is my daughter this past June with the Pop Princess hair....we brought our own dres. Here she is with her fairy godmother in training, Susan. Hope she is still there in March!

 

[mom of 3G's]

Dixiemom -- Thank you so much for posting that picture! Does the tiara and clips come with it?
