Step by step on the new Cindy's procedures please

[Disneymama1]

OK, I have my ressies for Cindy's in October. We did breakfast there in Feb 2004, but I know things have changed since then. Would someone please give me a step by step on what happens now? I know we take a photo downstairs - with who? Will we still see Cindy upstairs as well? Other princesses upstairs? What about the fairy godmother?

Sorry, but I would like to know what to expect before we get there. Thanks everyone

Hope this helps. We were there about two weeks ago. We were in a short line downstairs and had our picture taken with Cindy (along with autographs). We then went upstairs and got our table. The other princesses then come around but Cindy stayed downstairs. There was a contineous line for her (we ate early). Fairy Godmother was not there, at least when we went. We did she her outside the GF at 1900 Park Fare. Cindy was back to moving from one table to another also at 1900 Park Fare.

This is from allearsnet.com:

Beginning February 1, 2006, dining at Cinderella's Royal Table will undergo several changes:

-- Breakfast and Lunch will continue as Disney Princess-themed character meals. However, when you arrive at Cinderella Castle for your reservation, a photographer will be on hand to take pictures of your group in the lobby, before you are seated in the dining room. A package with four 4x6 prints and one 6x8 print of your photo, as well as one 6x8 print of Cinderella Castle, in a Cinderella photo holder (valued at $29.95 plus tax) will be delivered to you during your meal, which will be from a fixed-price, set menu. (Additional photos may be purchased.)

Breakfast: $31.99 ages 10 and up; $21.99 ages 3-9. Lunch: $33.99 ages 10 and up; $22.99 ages 3-9.

-- Dinner will become a fixed-price, set meal, also, hosted by the Fairy Godmother, who will lead the observance of special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. You will also have the chance to have your photo taken before dining, with a photo package similar to that mentioned above offered to you during the meal. In addition, you will receive a special, unframed, unmatted lithograph (worth $50), given exclusively to diners at Cinderella's Royal Table Dinner.

Dinner: $39.99 ages 10 and up; $24.99 ages 3-9.

NOTE: Once these changes go into effect (February 1, 2006), payment in full with a credit card will be required at the time of booking for all meals at Cinderella's Royal Table. If you do not have a credit card, the reservation cannot be made. All reservations for dining at Cinderella's Royal Table prior to February 1, 2006, will follow current pricing and deposit payment policies.

We were there last week. They took our names, gave us a card that told how many photo packages we'd get, and a seating slip. We were shown right into the downstairs hall to get in line for the Cinderella picture. After the picture, we gave the slip to a CM at the entrance to the stairs. She said we were ready to be seated right then. We went up the stairs, and at the top, met our server, who handed swords to the boys (girls got wands). We were seated, given orange juice, and he began to tell us what we would have to eat. However, in the middle of his spiel, all the princesses came out and lined up on the upper tier of the restaurant. While music played, they posed and blew kisses. There were Aurora, Belle, Snow White and the Fairy Godmother was with them. They then came out into the restaurant and began circulating amongst the tables. We were given our food, and soon the FAiry Godmother brought wishing stars to the tables.........little flashing stars that looked a bit like pins but weren't. There was a little wishing ceremony where they told the kids to close their eyes and make a wish, then told them to open their eyes and there were twinkling lights all around the ceiling, as if the wishes had gone up there. It was nice. We got lots of food, attentive service, and each princess and Fairy Godmother spent lots of time with the boys.............we had also told them it was our younger son's bday, and they had given us a bday card that Cinderella had already signed, and we set it out with the autograph book. Every princess signed both, and added some special touches to their signatures in the card. Oh, and forgot to mention on my report on my dining experiences before, that the server also brought our son a cupcake with a candle, and told him Peter Pan always eats cupcakes for breakfast, and since it was our son's bday, HE could have a cupcake for breakfast too. Our seating reservation was for 8:30, we arrived about 25 minutes early, and were done and at the rope drop for Splash Mountain by 9. We actually had to wait a couple minutes for the drop. It was great!
