After going to many parties, I would not suggest dining near party time, especially if you want to see characters at the party. Many lines start extremely early. And last year the Jack and Sally M&G actually started long before the party started. I remember a cm telling me to be in line by 4:30pm at the latest if seeing Jack and Sally.
To Belleincanada please do go to BoG in costume if allowed it will be priceless!! We went to CP for dinner on our party night last year. Tigger almost fainted when he saw me!! You can only imagine the reactions of the rest of pooh gang!!
Very nice. Fingers crossed that they will bend the rules for you. This will be the third year in a row for us I can't wait.I'm going to try! ....All depends on if the rules are bent for the party I guess. Here's a better photo of my Belle dressIt would be an actual lifelong dream.

we were shocked to see how long the line was last year, lined up @ 6:00 pm, took a little over two hours but worth it
I'm hoping for Sunday October 2nd. Last year was first time in ages we didn't do the party until Columbus Day (never again that date, far too crowded).
This is also what we did, we were already in the park with our park hopper tickets, so at 4pm they started handing out the bands over by Buzz. We got our halloween candy bag, our band and our map, then went to the shop on main street to get our halloween party merchandise. Then we went straight over to line up for Jack and Sally at about 5pm. There were about twenty people in line in front of us at that time. The line wasn't even official at that point, we just kind of created our own as they were still building the queue. Jack & Sally came out at about 5:45 and we were out and done at about 6pm. We had extra time so went over to see Daisy and Minnie in the big top tent just for fun. Then we went and got a spot for Lotso, did the dance party, trick or treated, and got a good spot for the parade. It was awesome, we had so much done before everything even got really started! We will be doing that again for sure!We went on Columbus Day last year (and it was far more crowded than any party I had gone to before, but then again the last party I went to was over 7 years ago!) I made my husband go on the line for Jack and Sally around 4:30/5 and by that time there were at least 10 people there already (albeit some of them in groups). I think they finally came out around 6, so I thought that worked out cool because we were finished with them before the party officially started. Immediately after we got a "quick" meal at Pinocchio's Village Haus and then got on our way to experience the party stuff. I think we are planning on following a similar schedule this year (my sister hasn't met Jack and Sally and I really want to meet them again ^_^).
They will release them! It's still only March.This is just pure torture. I know there are Disney execs watching these boards and social media. Shame on them!!!
Don't forget to keep stalking ressie sites people cancel all the time.Today was the first of my three ADR dates (split stay between three resorts), was online at 6am with two different laptops (mine and DF's), and tried with the MDE app, and nothin' for BOG dinner. So much for the dream of wearing my dress at BOG.

But, we did at least get an ADR for Thurs Sept. 15th dinner at CRT, so hopefully there's a party that night and they allow "grown ups" to wear costumes. ...And I have other "ADR days" on the 19th and 23rd to try again for BOG dinner!
Yep, that would be me. I'll still do the thread, even if it's only kids that dress up, but a lot of people will Disneybound, so I still plan on having plenty of work to do. LolOnce we know the dates is someone gonna start a thread on who is gonna be in what costume and what dates like last year? That's if we are allowed to wear costumes.
