Booking CRT and BBB

[Tnkrbelle565]

Okay, I'm confused. DD really wants to go to BBB (in the castle) this year. SO I plan to try to (crossing my fingers here) get an ADR for BBB and then Breakfast at CRT. However, I can not figure out how people do this and figure out the time. Do I make an 8am BBB appt and then an 9am ADR for CRT? What happens if you get one and not the other? Anyone who has done this successfully...can you explain it to me?

I haven't done it but plan on something close. Book her for her BBB at 8am. Her appointment should last about 45 minutes. You can then walk right out the door and into CRT. They let you in the park early for this too just like if it was CRT. If you plan on doing the photo shoot, try to take something to cover her while she eats so she won't get her dress messy. Then when CRT is over, you can go down Main Street to Expedition Hall and do the shoot.

For my DD, we already booked her BBB for 8am in May. We're going to leave there and go straight to the photoshoot and then to our ADR at Crystal Palace at 9:25am.

My understanding is that the photo pass only takes around 15 minutes

First, it depends on what package you choose as to the length of the BBB appt. The best way to cooincide the two is to call for CRT first at 180 days - get whatever you can because it is a popular spot and then make BBB work with that.

For example book a 12:15 lunch at CRT and take any available appointment before at BBB. You don't want too little or too much time in between. It is best for them to get used to the "look" before showing it off to the other "real" princesses, but not too long so that they get uncomfortable. The whole "look" is not the best for playing and adventuring around the parks.

What we have done in the past is book BBB later in the day (around 3:00) and then take my daughter to Toon Town for autographs with the princesses and then to a special dinner (princess or not). By then, she has had the day to enjoy the parks and is ready to be dressed-up for something a little magical.
