Questions for Cinderella's Royal Table Veterans

[LittleStinkerbelle]

As a newbie to this experience, I have a couple of questions for those who have been there/done that .

Is there a bathroom in the lobby where I can change DD into her princess dress?

In regards to the photo package, will they take one pose with the whole family and Cinderella and one pose with just DD and Cinderella? We'd want the package photos to be the ones with just DD but then would buy an extra of the one with the whole family. Is this possible? Will we be able to tell them which photo is for the package?

One last thing, when they are taking pictures in the lobby do they allow you to take some with your own camera or is it strictly for the photopass photographers?

Thanks!

think there are restrooms in the castle, but I haven't been back since BBT opened. My wife usually changes my daughter before we eat there. There is a set of restrooms in Fairytale Gardens where Belle's storytime is held and Pinochio's Village Haus is not too far away.

They take multiple pictures with Cinderella. Cinderella's personal staff chooses the picture with which you are presented. I would ask for additional poses and tell them which you want. The poses that you don't get can be added to your photopass. Last year they were printed in the corner of the larger picture we were given. I'd double check where the number is because Disney does change.

There are people taking pictures with their own cameras. We vidoed the time with Cinderella and I did not realize how many pictures they took until I watched the video.

Yes there is a restroom in the lobby where the pictures with Cinderella are taken. It is a single stall and quite large. Perfect for transforming into a Princess.

You can take as many pictures as you like with your own camera. I am sure that you would be able to buy an extra package of pictures for you family. I would just ask the photo pass photographer.

Personally, I would not rely on the restroom in the lobby of CRT. It is a single stall and sometimes the line is quite long. DH and DS waited in the restroom line last time and they almost missed the chance for autographs.

Actually, that restroom is for handicapped guests or guests needing assistance in going to the bathroom. It's really not intended to be used as a dressing room.

We changed DD in the (huge) bathroom past Peter Pan, on the left. Then just a walk around Peter Pan to the castle. It's fun to have people staring during that walk, too

We didn't tip. Since it was all prepaid, I honestly didn't even remember how much it had cost... I didn't see other tables tipping, either. I felt bad about not tipping, but didn't know what to do at the time. Anyone else know?

Oh, and btw, the bathroom for CRT is halfway up the stairs to the dining room and it is TEENY TINY! We changed DD out of her dress afterwards there, and it was WAY too crowded.

If I'm remembering correctly....

We went last October and I used the restroom in the Castle. It was half way up the steps from the lobby to the dining room. It had more than one stall.

FG circulated around and Suzy and Perla came around to the tables, albeit a lot quicker than other times we've seen them (1900 Park Fare). They really just came around and waved.

PS - be sure to look up while they are taking your picture, Jaq and Gus are up there.

We thought the CRT pictures were dark and not of a very high quality so you may want to see them before you decide if you want to buy the extras. The ones we took (they allow this) came out better.

Ours were actually washed out and shadowy (poor flash technique). Our own cameras were definitely better.

FYI, if you are a party of 5+, you will get more than one package. We were able to get one set of just the kids with Cindy and then one with everyone and her.

Thanks for all the insider tips!

Just wanted to say thanks for asking! We are going to CRT for the 1st time in August and I had the same questions. We will definitely want DD for the photo package but I was hoping to take pics with DMom and DS with my own camera as well.

When you are charged for the meal on your credit card at the time of booking, an 18% tip is included. So no, you do not need to worry about leaving a tip.
