Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique FAQ's w/ Photos

[Fire14]

Hey cancer survivor 06-
I wanted to ask about the face painting you and your daughter have in your photo. Was it done during a special event or is that available all the time? If it is something my DD could get done during our trip, where would I look for it? TIA

You can get face painting done at anytime. I've seen booths in most of the parks. I know there is/was a booth near Indy stunt show in MGM, One in Toon town of MK, One someplace in AK but am drawing blank on where. I honestly can't place if there is one in Epcot.

I was wondering can you purchase the middle package and then purchase the dress seperate AT the boutique? (not just in the park) And are they the same as the dresses in the park?

My ds got a pirate face paint at Down town disney by the BBB photo shot place, it was between $12-14 depending on your choices!

Hi....Thanks Mandy for this great thread....
I have a question for anyone who has done this in the summer. My dd id doing the castle package in August followed by lunch in the castle.
I thinking perhaps the Belle dress might be the "coolest" for this time as it has no sleeves??
I LOVE the cinderella wedding dress though....is this really hot to wear.?
We have a 9am appointment...so after all the works ...the photos etc..iam guessing we will arrive at the MK about 11am or so. We will then have 2 hrs to kill before our lunch at 1pm. So I don't want dd to be too hot.
She wants to see the belle storytime show and the castle show ...other than that i will try to keep her in air conditioning.
Any ideas?

Also after lunch we are going to line up for the 3pm parade!!

All of the parks have it we did this for 15 dollars each dd's is cinderella and mine is tinkerbell. We did ours in Epcot in the little market area right past China over the bridge. The parks all have the same w/ a few differences here and there, but AK has animal themed face paintings. They also have them for boys.

The parks have the same dresses as BBB you don't have to purchase at either the deluxe resort sell them as well as world of disney right when you walk in cinderlla and aurora and belle are to the left and ariel and snow white are to the right. and a few are on floor racks at the back of the store is BBB.

We did Sleeping beauty in July and the wedding cinderella in Aug. DD's hair held up fine in July but the way FGMiT did her hair in Aug it didn't stay I had to add more bobbie pins. DD did take her dresses off after a while b/c they were itchy. The only costumes she has actually woren for the whole day is jasmine, alice and cinderella that is in my sig pic.

If you decide to do the wedding cinderella maybe consider waiting to have it on till just before your lunch and then change again when she is ready. The costume is at my moms house right now so I don't remember if the sleeves are just a sheer lace type material or solid fabric.

We brought a change of cloths for the kids for after CRT so they would be cooler and more comfortable.
Here's my before/after..BBB

Thanks for all the great info! We'll be doing this on my DD's Birthday (one of the things she's asked for). While she wants the whole dress, etc, we'll probably be doing the middle package, and possibly getting her a dress before we go to WDW. She can also wear it during MNSSHP, because her birthday is right before Halloween, and we'll be there thru the 2nd! Talk about a Birthday Bonus!

Does anyone know if I can purchase gift cards/certificates for this? I'm getting married in October (at home, not a Disney wedding), and both my little flower girls will be down at Disney at different times after the wedding. I had thought that getting them a gift card/certificate for the BBB would be great gifts for being in my wedding. I'd like to be able to buy for them in advance and give them to the girls at the rehearsal dinner for when they go.

 

[is_it_october_yet2?]

our trip is scheduled for october, and we plan to go to the BBB while there. we have this bright idea to go to the BBB and then do a character meal at the castle. any ideas or suggestions would be great---my only concern is spending about half a day between the BBB and then the meal( this is time that could be spent enjoying the park)

You might want to get the earliest appt that you can. Since it only takes about 40 mins check in to check out. If you get there for 9 you should be done and on you way 10. The later you wait to make the appt the more you risk them being behind schedule.

When I called to book my appt for sept I asked if this could be done and I was told yes. Another option you might want to consider is getting disney dollars right now they have princesses on them. they might enjoy these more and if you have a local disney store near you I would get those in place of the gift card and BBB will definitely take these.

Hi, thank you for this thread, I love the pictures!!

We are going next year. My youngest dd will be 2 yrs old, but only about 20+ days shy of being 3 yrs old. I know it says only age 3 and up for the BBB, but do you think they would take her, since she'll almost be 3? I'm sure if she sees her big sis getting all dolled up, she'll want to do it too, and she'll be so close to age 3, I wonder if they'll make an exception.

Should we just tell them she's 3? lol

If she's that close, I would just say she's 3.

I called and asked about my DD who will be 3 weeks shy of being 3 in May , and I was told as long as she would be 3 with in 30days it was fine!

Hope that helps.

Oh thank you so much! She'll be so happy!!

 

[MamaOfTwoPrincesses]

I love your DD's dress. I want to order DD one since they are not itchy, which size did you get your 5 YO DD? My dd will be 7 but is really tiny, 41lbs. and 45 inches. I guess 5-7 would be a safe bet. Thanks.

I'm so sorry. I just saw this! DD is newly 5, 48 pounds and 44 inches. I got her a size 3-5 which fits prefectly with room to grow. On the website, it tells you the length of the dresses, and the 5-7 seemed like it would be waaaay too long. I'll PM you too, since I was so late in responding to this.

 

[glitzybabes]

its the new one for Year of a Million Dreams HLester posted a pic w/ her dd in one she said they are about 100 dollars.

Where can you buy the dress???

If you have a Disney Store nearby, you can purchase a Disney gift card there (not a Disney Store gift card, but a Disney gift card that is good at the parks). I think these can be bought in any denomination. I did this for my cousin for whom I arranged a BBB experience for her sweet 16 gift. I could not pay ahead through the BBB.

If you do not have a Disney Store nearby, you can buy them through the disneyshopping.com website. Just be certain you again purchase the Disney gift card & not the disneyshopping.com gift card...that one cannot be used anywhere but online shopping. These can be bought in $25 increments. Free shipping.

Hope that helps. Sounds like a perfect gift for your flowergirls. Good luck with your plans -- gift cards & wedding!

Other than just the general in the parks answer I am not exactly sure which specific store they are in but I am sure by now they have made their way into most of the stores that carry the costumes.
