Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique FAQ's w/ Photos

[princessmom29]

Sounds just like us!!!! I bought DD's dress online and loved it! Even though it was more yellow than gold (especially when around the "real" Belle!), but I got her the Belle ballet flats and she wore them for about 5 minutes or maybe 50 steps in the park before I packed them up and she put on her crocs! Also doesn't like to be the center of attention EXCEPT for this day! She loved all the attention she got! See? We mamas DO know best!!

We have the spring fair cinderella dress for BBB in Nov, and DD loves it! It is the first princess dress she has had that she doesn't say is itchy. I got the matching shoes as well and they seem to be pretty comfy for DD. We love it even though the colors aren't exactly the same. Our cinderella is more sky blue with less silver in it.

Yes!!! And it's magical to walk down a nearly empty Main St - but the photopass photogs are out so there are great photo opportunities!!!!

Thanks Kara...this is great news!!

Help Needed: I am torn on when to do this...I am bringing my DD who will be turning 3 on our trip and our DF will be bringing her DD who is 5. We are going in December. Should we bring the girls the morning of MVMCP, eat lunch at CRT and then head back to the room for a rest and then back for the party or should we schedule BBB and CRT for another day?

Hi all!

I booked a trip to the BBB for my cousin Ashlyn (age 11) for our upcoming trip in June. Then we are going to have the storybook lunch at Epcot. I'm really excited for her because she is such a girly girl. I have my own Princess Belle costume I thought about wearing anyway for the lunch. I'm not much of a girly girl but I did think about at least getting my hair done with her. However, I have my own tirara I would like to use if I decide to get it done, is it ok if I bring my own?

I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news but unless you are under the age of ten you will not be allowed into the parks in costume unless it is for a hard ticket party like PPP or MNSSHP and it is 4:00 or later on party day. Disney's reasoning is that they don't want adults in costume mistaken for CM's.

The PP is correct, you won't be able to wear the costume, but you can do BBB hair, nails, makeup and yes you can bring your own crown and they will put it in for you!! No rules against crowns, jsut full costumes.

What about a 13 year old that looks younger for the dress?

What about a 13 year old that looks younger for the dress?

The official rule is no one over the age of 9 I believe, but I would venture to guess that if she is small for her age then you wouldn't have any problem. I have seen girls in the parks that look 11 or 12 with costumes on, so I would think she would be fine. The rule is really just so people don't confuse adults with the real characters. With the BBB in the castle now, and the fact that they sell dresses up to a size 14/16 I think they would be more lenient about the exact age. I think it is more about size, in essence if your kid can fit in a dress that they sell at BBB than they can wear one in the parks. Just my opinion though.

Any other posters have kids dress up over the age of 9 and have a problem getting in the parks?

We were just at the Castle BBB last Wed and there was a girl who looked to be in the 13 to 14 range gettiing the punk princess and was wearing the Jasmine costume. She looked really cute when she was finished, but she did not have a 'little' girl body. Her mother is much braver than I would be, I would not let my daughter walk around wearing that costume at a theme park if she had a body like that. I do not know if they encountered anyone telling them otherwise once they left, but it may have been late enough in the day that is wasn't a problem. Our appt time was 3:10, and we had to wait nearly 45 min to get in, but oh-so-worth-the-wait.

I do have to say, it was amazing to watch the transformation of my DD from a tomboy to a . My DS got the Cool Dude. he was apprehensive at first, going into a 'beauty salon' full of women and girls. But after we were finished, he got loads of compliments, so he felt !
We had the Princess Storybook lunch at Epcot the next day and all it took was a little gel to touch up the flyaway hairs. She looked wonderful in her Belle dress and tiara.

By the way - pixie dust still in hair - 11 days and counting (and yes, I have scrubbed her scalp)...

In costume - before FGIT

During the transformation

I have BBB booked for 8:05am for our trip. After reading about the "cool dude" style for boys, i think ds would be interested in doing that too. Do i need to schedule an appointment for him too or can they squeeze him in with dd's appointment?

 

[adell557]

You need an appointment, they generally run behind anyway, so I don't know about squeezing in another person.

Thanks, Dana

Something is going on with this page... I keep getting an idisk.mac sign in popup and I'm on a window's based laptop... Mcafee is scanning now.

 

[glitterkittyy]

The popup is from desparatelydisney's pictures. There is no direct linking to those apparently so it's asking you to log in to see the pics. The posts (both the original and any quoting it) need to be edited to remove the pics or use a different host (photobucket is free) or the message will continue to appear.

Sorry, I didn't know about the "No costumes under 9 rule". I can understand the logic on that though. I guess they bend the rules a bit during the Star Wars Weekends because of the 501st and the Rebel Legions. I still want to wear my tiara that day. I still can't decide if I want to try and get my hair done or not. I may just put my hair up in Princess Leia Buns for the fun of it! LOL, Leia IS my favorite princess after all!

 

[desparatelydisney]

Hey guys...sorry about the problems with my pics. I am trying to fix the problem right now. I think it is beacuse our personal webpage used to be password only. It should be fixed in a few minutes. If you keep getting erros please let me know so I can take them off. I don't want to cause other DISers problems.

MMM

 

[desparatelydisney]

Can someone please tell me if this problem has been fixed? I have to go out for about an hour. If people are having having problems while I am gone I will delete my pics.

Sorry again!

 

[Condiment Queen]

picks coming in loud and clear!

THANKS SO MUCH. I can leave stress-free now.

They were running about 45 min behind when we were there last week at the castle and they were turning people away. I had my ds booked 10 min before my dd b/c they told me they couldn't get the same appt time. So when they called his name first, I asked if they could take her at the same time. It seemed like an act of congress, but they did it. So I wouldn't count in squeezing anyone in. I hope you don't have your hopes up.
