"Official" 2017 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Boo to You!

[FoxC63]

Finally got a picture in semi decent lighting. So I have the top and skirt I purchased. The U shaped fabric and the bit at the top for the sleeves is one colour and the other two options are on the left. The picture doesn't show then as being too different but they are. I think I'm going to stick to the fabric I have already put in position.

I love your Belle costume. I see the color difference you mentioned in earnest this looks great. If you still feel it looks odd you could put a layer of tulle on top of the fabric which will also create a bit of elegance.

Just gotta say, you did a great job planning! I'd love to meet the Coca Cola bear too. May I suggest on Sept. 22 you make an ADR for 5pm and if Club Villain is offered you can cancel it. Lastly I hope you take the time sleep-in. WELL DONE!

Love the Rey Costume too!

I didn't think this fell into your time frame, but yes it sounds like something fun to plan for! You did a great job with your ADR's, how's the rest going?

Going well - not having Animal Kingdom hours is a challenge, but it will be okay. Summer is almost here, I don't like the time to pass too quickly, so I sometimes put the trip on the back burner, you know?

 

[FoxC63]

Awesome! Thank you! Next question – we are staying at Port Orléans Riverside, preferred section- Any idea when I should be in line for the bus in order to get to Magic Kingdom at that time? PS – I'm really hoping that the party won't be super busy since it's in August, LOL

I'll look into this and get back to you!

Just typing that out seems like sooo much food. But there's so much I want to do/try. Just kinda going for it.

You had me at FOOD! lol

7:05 ohana ** I have no idea what to do about these being during party time? I want that 4:05 but hate to miss any party time.

Fair warning it's been posted here that they seat late like 30 minutes What about eating somewhere closer to you or a QS? As far as the 7:05 ohana I think Anna can answer this! Ha!

I kept saying that I wasnt going to do a costume but...I saw this

http://hottopic.scene7.com/is/image/HotTopic/10787904_hi?$pdp_hero_zoom$

Well it's on sale and I have a gift card laying around and it looks more cool and comfortable than a standard costume-especially if I have a friend take the sleeves up a bit...

Im starting to second guess my no costume decision

Oh my! That's AWESOME! Go for it!!! Kindermouse!, Kindermouse!, Kindermouse!

 

[FoxC63]

I plan on bringing instant oatmeal with me for breakfast (I know..boring).

How did I miss this?! No, it's great! I asked a few pages back what everyone was planning on packing beside clothes, shoes, costumes, toiletries and medical.

I plan on packing Oat Meal, Juice Packs, Hot Cocoa Packets, Dish Soap, 2 - Dish Sponge, 2 - Dish Gloves and Baking Powder! Soooo glad I'm not alone!

@margievis I posted your question on an old and I mean old thread 2009 just to see if anyone could help. I also contacted @hiroMYhero an awesome Moderator and here's what she had to say:

"Tell them to get on the bus at the main bus loading area by the Lobby. If it's for a 9:00 open, they can get on a bus before 8:00a. Is it for a party? I'd say main bus pickup before 3:00p."

Thank you @hiroMYhero for responding and I hope the information helps you!

I love this dress! I actually saw someone post maybe in a FB group and they had worn this for their birthday to the Bon Voyage breakfast. This is my favorite Ariel look! Wore it (not this dress, but a running version) for two different Princess halves! So go for it!

Yes, I am saying this is doable BUT it depends on the crowds. It was reported last year that a few people were able to get both J&S and Dwarfs. Note you cannot spend time with the characters, just pose & go which can take away from your experience. Jack and Sally are well known to greet guests with a lot of warmth, Dwarfs ... well some have had amazing character interaction and some zero. Having said that are you willing to cut these characters off just to catch a FP?

I would do one priority character, check the second priority and if the line is too long look for another M&G with a short line or get party specific items: pin, food, SotMK card, Photo op. Then use my FP and return to the Dwarfs or just wait until the end of the night to see them.

Thanks! But actually my question was more about the fact that the party doesn't officially start until 7:00! I've heard some characters might start a little early, but would both J&S and 7 Dwarfs be out and "meet-able" early enough to go through both of them before 6:30????

Yes. The party may start at 7pm but last year J&S came out at 5pm.

EDIT: A lot of things can be done between 4-7pm. It's generally the other characters who come out at 7pm or in Jack Sparrow's case show up fashionable late!

Does anyone else think this could be the week tickets go on sale?!?!

I certainly hope so! I've got gift cards burning a hole in my pocket!

 

[Kindermouse]

Well Its official, I am going to MNSSHP at Ariel on land. After the sale price and my gift card it was only 10 bucks yea!

Someone posted on the MVMCP thread that the rumor is that party tickets will go on sale Tues. Apparently a large Brazilian Travel agency has already started selling MVMCP tickets last week and their prices (which supposedly included a slight upcharge) were posted on that thread. The price increase unfortunately seems steep again this year if the travel agency's up charge truly is only slight.
