We are going in August and planning on booking BBB for three girls (7,5,5). Ideally I would like to do the one in the castle and then CRT I’m thinking to guarantee I get the times I want I should do the end of the trip. I current have it slated for the last full day. Should I move it earlier in the trip so they aren’t burnt out?

Also what time of the day? Thinking 3/4 appointments and then dinner? I just think in August to do BBB in the morning will be to much, and to hot! Is this a total waste?
 
No. We normally do BBB at 10:00 and then lunch. By 3:00 they've shed their dresses. I would definitely do it later in the day because of the heat. The girls often find the dresses scratchy. As you can see by my avatar we just did dressy dresses this last trip and they did great.

That’s what I was thinking. Also was looking into getting the T-shirt dresses made so they are a bit lighter in fabric.
 
We've done it first thing in the morning, then she would change out of her dress until dinner time and redress for CRT. The last 2 trips at her request (she's now 10) we've scheduled afternoon times shortly before dinner. Only in doing that, give a little extra time because BBB does tend to get backed up.

Was thinking 4pm BBB and 530 CRT? Does that seem ok? Or should I do 3pm BBB I need 3 reservations as close together in time as I can get them.
 
Yes. So many of the Disney dresses have stiff tulle and the younger one refuses to wear tulle. She's very funny about the way things feel. I found some cute casual dresses for AK at the Disney Outlet. Very comfy ETA Sorry about the size. They changed the server on me and I can't figure out the edit lol

Also, call at 7 am EST at 180 days. You should be successful as most people want morning. (or at least a lot). It takes around an hour or so so I'd do 3:00- 3:30 with a 5:00 dining reservation. As I said, we usually do 10 am and lunch around 11:30. Not too much wait time, around maybe 20 minutes. They could always go see Merida if they have a lot of time to kill. She's right there behind the castle.

Perfect I’ll shoot for 3/3:30 and 5/530 meal.

Thanks for all your help! First BBB for these girls!
 
Enjoy! Also, you don't have to know which package you want then you call. Often people take their own costumes and a lot of times we'd get to the castle early and pick a costume from Castle Couture right behind the castle. You can also go in for photos after the appointment. The studio is to the right of the Castle Couture building, adjacent.
