I would have picked purple if it was available. I ended up doing red for me because Minnie is my favorite character, DD picked pink, and DS picked blue.
I chose pink and I got green for my daughter, who I'm sure would've picked purple if that was offered. My dh said he didn't care what color, he's not excited about the MB's and told me to pick whatever. So I picked gray for him.
When you log into MDE, the sidebar link that says "Manage MagicBands" will at some point prior to your trip change to "Personalize MagicBands". Click on that, and you're good to go!
Pink for me (because they didn't have purple) and green for my DD (her favorite color.) When my sons get one, they will both choose orange. Don't know what color DH will want.
Do you have MyDisneyExperience set up yet? It works online or as an app. You have to have yourself and all gussets in your party signed up in it. Then you have to make sure it's linked to your reservation. Then in the drop-down options it'll say something like "my magic bands and cards" and tell you if any are available for you to personalize. If that's confusing, message me and I'll try to help more clearly. Or I think there are a few posts about it - but there's like 3000posts in the main thread so it can be tricky to find.
I chose blue and DH chose grey. Next time I think I might go with yellow or green.
We just got back from a week in WDW. Dealing with the post trip blues, but loved everything about the bands. They worked well with admission to the park (including MNSSHP), buying items, paying for meals, accessing the hotel pool, getting into the room, and the magical express. Fastpass+ worked very well. We scored late afternoon last minute passes to major attractions including Test Track & Toy Story. We had a great experience with the bands and they were very convenient. My DH took a nap and all I needed to get into the room, buy something, go to a park, or go swimming was my band!
since it is a surprise trip i'm getting blue for all three girls, so there is no disappointment or envy. DH grey and I would like aqua but will get red
DH chose blue and I initially chose pink...for our upcoming trip without the kids. But we are also going again in Dec (with the kids) and one of my girls wanted to get the pink one, so I changed to orange. I will get DS red and my other DD green. Might have to order for my 5 inlaws whom I have booked their rooms for (using our DVC points). I guess we'll have to double up on some colors.
I too would have gone with purple if they had it. I saw a pic on a google search that had a purple one...what happened to that?
