Has anyone done the Princess Tea Party at GF?

This looks so unbelievably cute and my daughter would probably love it! The issue is that it cost $250 bucks. That is crazy for what it sounds like you get.

Can those of you who went give an opinion as to whether this is worth it or not? If possible, try not to include too much sentiment in your response (i.e. the look in my daughters eyes was well worth the $250). My daughter luckily loves everything Disney so she'll probably be giving that look all throughout our vacation, for a lot less than $250 bucks a pop!

But seriously, to those who have gone, is this worth the $$$$?

TIA

We did this when my daughter was about 6 and she LOVED it! In my opinion, it was worth the $$$ for the look on her face. She and several of her cheer friends, we were there to compete, dressed up like Sleeping Beauty and it was really sweet. The meal was ok, the girls like it b/c of the cut out sandwiches! They got to spend time with Rose Petal, and several others. (I can't remember their names) We got the Sleeping Beauty doll, charm bracelet, septor, and a scrapbooking kit. It was really fun and she really enjoyed it. Hope this helps!

We've also done it. Not much to add other than seconding the recommendation to do it. Our daughter (4 at the time) loved it!

I took my daughter when she was 4, and she LOVED it too! I thought it was great. I don't think I could justify the cost to go a second time, but I have NO regrets about the first time! It was a great time, and a fun memory to keep.

Here are some of our pics:

I too was wondering about this, but had a few other questions as well:

1. The Disney website says, $250 per person. So, is it actually $500 if mom/daughter go?

2. My wife would also most likely need to bring along my other two daughters, ages 2 and 7 months. Is it $250 for the 2 year old as well, or are under 3 free?

It's $250 for the child and a parent. Together. It would not be $500. I'm not sure about the little ones. If they're considered free throughout Disney, I'd imagine that'd be no exception. But you might want to call Disney to find out about that.

I took my DD when she was 4 and she loved it. I do feel that it is pricey, but for a one time thing for a girl who is crazy about princesses, it was worth it.

The reviews I have seen say the event and entertainment is wonderful, but don't expect good food.
