"Official" Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party 2015 Thread - Rockin' Around the Cinderella Castle!

[Mrs. Incredible 2]

This is my first time attending MVMCP and I have been waiting for reservations for Be Our Guest to open up between 7PM-9PM. I just saw under the hours that they added "Dinner Special Ticketed Event 7:00-9:00PM". Does that mean they will release the reservations soon?

I called Disney to ask about this. They told me that all the reservations are out there, but you need the ticket to stay for your reservation. A castmember told me that if you have a DR at 7p or earlier, you can have your reservation and then escort you out if you don't have a party ticket.

BOG RESSIES OUT FOR MVMCP NOW!!! At least in NOV anyway! I just picked up a 11/10!! Hope this helps!!

Do they do anything special at BoG for party dining? I'd hate to wait precious park hours eating at a sit down during a special event.

Woohooo!!! I just picked up a 6:10pm on 11/8. It's for 2 people so if anyone else is going solo & wants to join me for dinner at BOG on 11/8, PM me to coordinate! Yeah!!!!

I just saw! Thank goodness my daughter woke up and started crying because it woke me up. After putting her back to sleep I went straight onto the MDE app and saw the reservation. I had a feeling that they would release it this morning but I didn't know what time.

 

[jstbcuz]

I got reservations for Dec too.

Help!! First time @ MVMCP. I currently have 1900 PF @ 4:05 and BOG @ 6:25. Which one should I do?? PF and then arrive at the party or arrive at MK @ 4, then eat @ 6:25.....I'm just worried this will cut into party time

 

[gottalovepluto]

Thank you all!! I am grinning from ear to ear, I've dreamed of dining in BOG pretty much since before they even built the restaurant We're only doing wine and desert (as F&W will get most of the trip budget and this will make dining more time efficient during the party) but we'll make sure to leave a nice tip! I'm just SO excited!!

We are attending our first MVMCP on November 10, and are hoping that parties have smoothed out since the opening of MNSSHP!! Either way though, we are really excited to see MK decorated and lit, as in our last 4 trips we haven't been there once decorations were up. Also just got our BOG ressie on 11/10!

Thanks to all who have posted great info on this thread!

I snagged a BOG reservation for 4:15 on November 8th for 6 people.
After thinking about it, I am going to keep our 2:30 ressie for Kona and cancel the BOG.
This is a short trip for us and we will only be in MK for the party so we don't want to "waste" time
with a Table Service.
If you are interested in the BOG reservation let me know and we can coordinate when I cancel.

Wish I'd seen this earlier. I just checked and they do have 7:30 reservations open for 2 (that was what I checked for) on the first party night, but we want to catch both parades, so would have needed the 7pm ones to even have a chance otherwise I might have snapped them up. We have lunch reserved 2 days later, but have been stalking dinner reservations for months

Edit
Thanks to @kimbe21 we now have our absolutely perfect first Christmas Party day booked, with 4:15 BOG reservations on the first MVMCP night to kickstart our first 'Disney Christmas trip.

I'd keep the PF. The BoG will cut into party time, especially if you want to meet the dwarfs.

If 4:15 counts as their sit down dinner I'm interested but for a party of 2. How much of a window do you get to get there if we aren't entering the park until 4pm. Will it be a problem if we're a few minutes late?

Edit to add- Ive pm'd you

 

[chloesmommy]

I have a question. I bought 4 tickets to the party on the 17th. The Lady Said They were connected To Her account but she had to postpone her trip. Am I going to have any issues using these the day of my party?

 

[cmarsh31]

We're going for it! My Aunt & I are surprising my mom and her other sister with tickets to the 12/11 party - AND thanks to this thread I just grabbed reservations to BOG! We're just going for the "experience" - we won't be standing in character lines or riding rides (unless I manage to score a 7DMT FP for myself before 7pm) so BOG totally fits into the night, even though it cuts into "party time".

Now off to read the rest of the 59 pages of this thread that I avoided because I wasn't going to get more great info!

 

[disprincessesmom1012]

just joining in. planning to be there the 18th!

You bought 4 tickets from where? Who is "The Lady"? The tickets are not transferable so if they are assigned to a person in "The Lady's" MDE I don't believe you can use them.

I was up at 1am doing fast passes this morning because my lovely daughter woke us up. I wish I checked dining, I didn't even think i would have a chance at BOG. now the only one available is 7:25 and that's too late to eat and try and catch anything else. oh well Tony's it is
