Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique FAQ PART II - w/ Photos

[F.G.I.Training]

There was a time for 3 months were neither one of the boutiques were allowed to accept tips. but now we ARE ALLOWED to accept tips.....at DTD your princess will make a wish and put her tip in a "wishing well". At MK I am not sure how they are accepting theirs. This took effect on Easter sunday of this year.

What took effect on Easter Sunday? I tipped last year in March. (2009)

 

[RachelsMommie]

Do I need to bring cash for tips, or can I use a Disney GC (my mom gave my DD5 a large Disney GC for her to go to BBB) or my KTTW card?

Thanks for the info! I just want to be sure I tip appropriately and have cash if I need it...

 

[jenseib]

Must be cash given directly to your FGIT.

do the dresses go up to a 12/14 girls size?

All dresses on Disney property go from sizes xxs(2/3) to xl(14). Only the Jasmine outfit doesnot come in xxs(2/3). If there is a size that is not available in any store you happen to be in on property, ask a castmember about calling around to find it for you. Just a note...Tiana's dress sells out the fastest right now and you may not find it at all.

Can anyone tell me about the BBB Princess Parade? I don't know anything about it. For example, if my DD has her makeover in the AM can she come back and be a part of the parade? Is it for everyone? About what time of day does the parade happen? Is it only for girls getting the most expensive package?

The Princess Parade is Only done at the DTD location. Parades are at 2pm Mon. thru. fri. and at 12 noon on sat. and sun. The Parade is Very Nice as invites are givin out to all girls that get a makeover that morning. Your princess is taught the princess wave and how to blow princess kisses to all her royal subjects. They are givin bells to shake and fgits blow bubbles along the parade route. Castmembers come out of the shops along the parade route to cheer the princesses on. There are flags and banners as well as cheering going on. Soon we will have our own music that will play during the parade as well. Your daughter will LOVE it. At the end of the parade the girls ride the merry go round for free!!! Princess also take home "Magical Moment" cards and Photopass takes LOTS of pics. of all the princesses for you to take home as well.......LOTS OF FUN!!!!!!

Is it just for girls who do the DTD BBB? or can we participate if my daughter does BBB in the MK?

Oh, I haven not heard at all about the tips being stopped for 3 months. Why was that?

I was there when it was announced and let's just keep it as an "internal company issue" that has been dealt with. I don't think it really needs to/should be talked about in a public forum outside of the boutique, it was a management issue.

The age to start going is 3. They really don't recommend any younger. I think if you are REALLY clsoe to the thrid b-day you could take her, but most likely not sooner.

Do you have any pictures of the cool dudes or know where i can look it up at and prices or is it about the same as the bbb thanks

 

[cheyandrew7]

If we bring our own dress do they still get there pictures done or do we have to do the big package or is there a sparate package deal for that? also if we get the photopass does those pictures go on there as well?

Here are a couple of my nephew getting a "Cool Dude" package. I can't remember exactly how much it cost, but it was a lot less than the girls' packages!

How old is she? They uually frown on younger kids coming, but some may let them if they are close to 3. They will sprinkle pixie dust on her for sure. Also be aware that getting the hair down requires sitting still and alot of yanking on the hair. Some kids can do it no problem, even if thhey cry for mom, but not all. Even some bigger kids have a problem with it at times.
