Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique FAQ PART II - w/ Photos

[PrincessEmma630]

We got our trip booked...yay!! And were lucky enough to get an 8:55 appointment at BBB the first day we'll be at MK. DD6 has her heart set on dressing up as Belle, and although I'm willing to buy the Castle package at the park for her, I decided to look around beforehand so we could see if we could get it cheaper. Well, we found the "Official Disney Parks" Belle dress on Ebay, and paid much less than we would have at the park.....but when we got it in the mail we noticed it is sooooooooo scratchy! Worse than any princess dress I've ever seen! I'm thinking about getting her some kind of Belle tutu or something similar that would be much cooler, that she could wear with a Belle t-shirt or something. Anybody ever seen anything like this?

They have a really cute Belle Tutu that is yellow with small red roses on it in Disney. I also just bought dd a cute Belle set at Walmart for $10 - it has 2 tank tops, one is white with yellow bows with a picture of Belle on it with and says Belle and the other is a yellow tank with roses on it and says belle all over. It came with a matching skort that is yellow with a red rose on the side embroidered in it. The white tank and the Yellow Belle tutu from Disney would look great together.

Can someone please post a picture or a link to the skirts they now sell at BBB. I know I've seen them on here but now I can't find them. I'm hoping to have my SIL pick one up for my daughter for our suprise May trip. TIA

We are going to WDW in October. I have two DD's ages 8 and 4. I want to do the most expensive package which is $189 and up. How much are the Belle dresses or are they included with the price of $189? How much more can I plan on spending with both girls for this experience?

The dress is included in that price. As well as some other accessories. That price is not set in stone, it depends on what assecoires you pick as well. You can look for cheaper dresses online before you go. I actually am not a fan of the current dresses they have. You might find something much prettier and cheaper online. We took our own dress and did th middle package and then went for photos after and we had a wonderful experience. We did buy the Belle crown though while there. I think the current price for just the dress is $65 at WDW.

I just went in Sept. with my 8 and 4 year old. My 8 year old was Ariel and my 4 yr old was Sleeping Beauty. They got the works dress, shoes, wand, hair, makeup, purse with gloves and photo package. Something that the girls through was fun was I got my hair and make up done too. It was kind-of a fun mom and daughter activity. For the 3 of us it came to just under $500, and it was so worth it.

Hi all. I have done the BBB one year and my daughter loved it. My question is can you make reservations online or is it only if you call in? Can anyone give me the number if so. thanks

You still have to call in. You can call the main number and go to the dining option and they can do it for you.

I was wondering, can you book BBB 180 days in advance like the dining reservations? I can't remember. My friend is going the same week as us and wants to book for her DD.



Since I am on here, I thought I'd post our pictures of last October with DD getting herself on dolled up. She LOVED it. We did the Crown Package and it was worth every penny. When DH went to go pay (who had thought it was a lot of money to do a child's hair and such but didnt kick up much fuss) the FGIT said the cost and he was like "oh that's bad!". Cracked me up! It was completely worth it, she looked forward to this moment for a year, picked out her dress and everything. Here is the pictures...

(following are photopass pics..)

Our very next stop...

Just to show how well the hair STAYS, this was the evening of at the Dessert Party.

Day after, in the heat of Animal Kingdom.

Her hair could have lasted another day perhaps, but we were flying out and decided to take all her pins out and give it a good wash before getting stopped at the metal detectors with a hair full of metal.

When you leave you get a cute little pink gift bag with the nailpolishes (blue and pink) the rest of your eye makeup and gloss, and the face stickers as well as a little pamphlet with her name on it. She LOVED having that pink bag. We still have it!

We are leaving in 3 weeks and doing the middle package and may buy a dress a la carte when we get there. DD wants jasmine. What do you have to do to have the photo shoot after and does it cost extra???? Thanks.

I also just wanted to add, the little photography session in the back of the store behind the castle, he was amazing with getting the few pics that he had. My daughter is very shy and didn't want to sit there. After getting all done up at the BBB, she didn't want to be in front of another stranger. He had litterally 30 seconds for the 2 poses he got. I almost cried when I saw how well they turned out. SO impressed with them.
To add to the experience, they were doing a photoshoot at 8am (our apt time) right behind the castle with all the main characters. We had to get ushered around to the photostudio, then when we came out, Goofy and Mickey were all there waving at the kids, goofy came over to high five Brayden, meanwhile surrounded by an awesome cast for the shoot. I mean, it was just a magical moment!! Can't buy it, no price can be put on it. It's a great memory we have in Disney...one of SO MANY!! CAN'T WAIT UNTIL NEXT OCT!!!

I believe it's first come first served. Where our ressie was one of the first of the day, it was empty when we went over (park was still closed).
All pics were uploaded to our photopass (we had a share with others so it only costed us $20 for photopass for the entire trip) If you don't have photopass Im not too sure what is done. But we swear by a dining plan and photopass. Worth every penny for both.

Thanks our appt is at 8:10 and park doesnt open until 9am that day. So when we go in for our appointment tell them we want to do the photoshoot after???

Also just wanted to add my DD will probably be like yours she is very shy but hoping to get at least a few cute shots...

and where exactly are the photos taken?
Thanks.

They don't make it very well known, however if you ask them they will tell you. When you are done and you paid you walk out the door. Turn left to go out the back of the castle. When you have gotten 'outside' look sort of to your left, there is a little shop there. the Photostudio is in the back of it. Again, Im sure they will give you better discription. Someone escorted us.

That is the best time for the BBB in my opinion. There was a lineup when we got there at 8 for our 820 res as well. I don't think early can hurt.
