Need advice from BBB experts?!

[NicholeB630]

So we have taken our daughter to BBB the first time we went to Disney she LOVED it we did the full package in the middle of the day and it of course took a long time.

We are going the begining of December and she has an appointment for 8:15am on a 9 am rope drop day. I right now have the full package with dress and all. This trip is a surprise so she wont know till the day before. I cannot decide if I want to keep the full package or change it to a smaller one. Our reasons are timing and an Elsa dress. I asked her if we ever went again what dress she would want to wear and she said Elsa. I have no idea what the chances they will have her size then, I know the Frozen craze is still on going. So I could get a dress prior and bump down her package (although I think she would still be happy and love another dress too if we had to pick something different) Also we really need to meet A&E and I am worried we wont get a FP for that day we do get to choose 60 days in advance and this day will be day 7 into our trip. So I was thinking if we did a smaller package we'd get out of there early enough we may have a chance of getting in standby line first thing. I just dont know whats better to do. How much time will a smaller package save? Also I was reading about the packages and it seems the one that comes with a tutu you only get one certain hair style, then the one lesser you get to choose between the three? Would that be better and then have her own dress and all that she gets done is the hair, make up and nails? A little advice would be great.

We stopped with the big package and bring our dresses and do the hair and makeup. Even cut out the nails.
They love it and it doesn't take up too much time! We love doing the 8am appointment too, they have all day to run around dressed up! This way you bring the dress you want and you know it fits

Thanks I'm thinking we will do a smaller one to save on time and ensure her an Elsa dress!!

We're going in September and I booked a lesser package and purchased an Elsa dress in advance for just that reason. Plus I can purchase a less expensive dress!
