My DD is doing the Castle package and I am doing the Coach package. My DD's appt is @ 5pm and mine is @ 5:10pm. My question is when do they pick out the dress and things? I really want to be w/ her when she's deciding. I know DH will get her everything under the sun and we all know he doesn't understand she can't walk around for the night in those shoes.(MNSSHP that night). Also will they take our pictures together? I didn't know if I should try and move my appt.? Thanks

Does anyone have a picture of the Pirate Princess hair style? We are taking our girls to BBB to get the Castle package and my wife is getting the Crown package and she is thinking of getting the Pirate Princess.

Thanks a bunch!!!

Howdy everyone! Just got my photopass CD in the mail and wanted to share a few more pics. . .while I was having my hair done, my two Fairy-Godmothers-in-Training (Martha & Donna, both absolutely wonderful) told me that they love to get princesses of all ages! So here are some pics of a 34 year old princess! I highly recommend BBB - it was a truly magical experience for me!

Oh-my-gosh!! Love it!! I feel a lot better about wanting to do it now, and I'm letting my DBF know I'm booking an appointment to treat myself to feel like a true princess

Hey all. OK, so we knew the price increase was coming, but everything I read said it was going into effect when the new BBB opens in September. However, we went on Sunday (I'll post pictures and experience stuff later) and the new prices were in effect, Even though we were at DTD BBB and we'd had reservations for some time, and I told them when I called 2 weeks ago, I was told the price was still the same.. .we did the middle package and they didn't even offer the press on nails, though they did give us extra polish.

We loved the experience, more details after we get home, but wanted to let all know that the new price structure is in effect now, regardless of what they are saying on the phone. . .

Ok just a few questions for all you BBB experts. We are going to WDW Nov 10-16.

1. We have ADRs for Crystal Palace-Character Dining at 11:45am and our BBB reservation at 1:30pm. Will that be enough time for the character dining and still make it to our BBB ressie? According to a CM, Crystal Palace is like a 5 min walk from Cinderella's Castle. Is this correct?

2. Does BBB mail out the invitations to our home or will we receive them when we get there? We are not telling our girls that we are going to WDW but would love to be able to give them the invitations when we get there.

Thanks for all your help!

so is the coach now $45+tax? That's pretty annoying that they're not honoring what they're saying on the phone, but I guess they know how to squeze out extra dollars when they can.

My Daughters Are All Getting Makeovers And Dressing As Princesses For The Mnsshp. I Am Dressing Up As Cinderella As Well. My Daughters Are Snow White, Aurora, Jasmine, And Belle (we About Covered Them All!) I Know Adults Are Not Supposed To Dress In Costume In The Parks, But I Was Wondering If I Could Change Into My Cinderella Costume At The Bbb For Pics There Or Go To Guest Relations To Do It. We Are Having The Makeovers And Pics Taken The Night Before The Mnsshp, So I Don't Know If Anyone Will Have A Problem With Me Dressed Like That. What Do You Think? I Have Never Been To Disney Before.

They will ask you when you check in what princess you picked I think they even asked us on the phone when I called while we were down there.

I am not really sure if they will let you do that but if you have trouble doing and can squezze in a little time to go over to downtown disney and have the pics done there. You can have this has an option if they don't let you while you are in MK.

I'm brand new to girls princess dresses, as my dd is only 2.5. She didn't get the concept of dressing up on our last trips, but she wants to look like Cinderella this time. Do they sell only one style of Cinderella? Do you have to book at BBB in order to get one? How strict are they on the 3 and up policy? Thanks!

When we were there last year they have the blue cinderella dress and her wedding dress. You do not have to do bbb in order to get a dress you can purchase them anywhere in disney. How old will your dd be when you go, if you think that she will do okay for about 35 minutes in the chair if so you should be fine.

 

[budbeerlady]

Odd, they didnt ask me when I booked who DD wanted to be? I wonder if I should call them back. Also I assume we can get the package but NOT the shoes right? They just would be a waste for DD.

 

[kkproulx]

You do not need to tell them at booking what princess that they want to be, because some people bring in their own dresses to wear and some just want to get the make up done. I also think that the shoes could be optional too, I don't know if you'll get a discounted rate if you choose not to have the shoes, we'll have to see when we get there about that too. My DD5 is going in October and so far she has said she wants to be Ariel, then the next week it is Snow White, next it's Jasmine....who will she choose next?? I signed her up for the middle one and may upgrade when we get there. We'll see. Good luck!

The expierence that I had when they asked me on the phone what princess my dd wanted to be was while I was in disney I called from the resort. They also asked me when I arrived w/ dd which princess she wanted to be and that is when they explained that the deluxe princess package is an additional price due to the price of the dress. For the castle package I don't think the shoes are optional if you don't get them I think they will still charge you as the pp stated above. I would consider not getting the castle package if you don't want all of the pieces if they will still charge you for the shoes. You can also resell the shoes.

Ok I've read about 98% of this thread. I am turning 17 and will be doing this the day before the Pirate and Princess party, on our trip in August. I am so excited, even though I am a little older than their 'target audience' for this.
Ok so my question. I have longer hair about inbetween my shoulder blades, and it's curly and thick. So I have an appointment around 2ish. I think I am going straight from the parks. So should I maybe straighten my hair or something like that to make it more manageable?

This is a great thread by the way, and I am loving it!

Just bumping so this page dosen't get lost!

 

[firsttimermd]

Just curious if anyone can tell me the difference between the pop princess and disney diva hairstyles. My girl is almost 6 and wants something fun and funky and they both look kind of similar from what I can see.

Thanks for any info!

 

[zumbergc]

when they do the pop princess and disney diva hairstyles, it looks like they put extensions in your hair.

How are they clipped in? What type of clip? Anyone have a picture.
I have a sensitive scalp and wondering if I could take it or not,
sure looks like fun.

Someone asked about the difference between diva and pop princess.
From the pictures people have posted. The pop princess seems to put a rainbow of colored hair, into your hair.
The diva one, seems to put the same color extensions into your hair.

Not sure if thats the only difference, maybe someone else can comment more.

 

[cancer_survivor_06]

I am not sure about the curly hair thing b/c I have not had to deal w/ it so hopefully someone who has experience w/ that will come along w/ the answer or you may want to PM angiebelle and see if she knows.

The Pop Princess hairstyle is the one w/ the mulit colored hair in it and the diva princess has the hair that is similar to your own.

 

[graygables]

both of the extensions are thick rubber bands that go around the bun. Very secure, very easy to put back in yourself later!
