My daughters will be 9 and 2 this winter, Do you think 2 is too young for BBB?

By Disney policy, your child must be 3 to do the BBB.

My daughters will be 9 and 2 this winter,

Do you think 2 is too young for BBB?

Website says they MUST be between the ages of 3 and 12.

My DD will be doing BBB for the first time in November. I want her to be able to decide what princess dress to wear and will get whatever package we need to for this experience. I've read about the fairy godmother in training and child secretly deciding and then revealing to the parents and would like her to do this. However.....we already have a Sofia and Rapunzel dress, and may have an Elsa dress. If she decides on one of these, can they adjust my package based on her decision at the dress up moment? Or do we have to decide going in? And....she will need help putting the dress on I am guessing. I am betting the godmothers can't help with that. Do I need to rethink my entire plan? Thanks!

I was told you need to book what you need in advance because of time considerations for other people. If you're bringing the dress it's less time that someone else may need.

My guess is they are secretly revealing the style to the parents not the dress. There are only a couple styles to chose from so it would be one of 3..unless they have one of the specials going on for a 4th one.
The dress is chosen before they even walk in and then you take them back to get dressed. Typcially the FGIT will come get you then to take you to your chair, but sometimes you have to go back out and wait.
You then can stay right there and take all the pictures you want during the experience.
You can decide on the actual package once you arrive, and change your mind from what you told on the phone as they all take about the same time give or take a few minutes. You are dressing before they are ready for you to go to the chair. Usually a 2nd FGIT comes to put make up on and does the nails.

Thank you for your help! I thought the dress was the last part.
I am worried now because I know I was not asked what package I wanted when we booked. I think I will call and see what we are down for.

It won't matter. They ask you when you check in what you want and go from there. You don't have to decide till then.

Just like Jen said, you don't have to decide what package you'd like until you check in

Hi sorry if this is a repeat question. Is the Belle Holiday dress offered every year? Is it the only holiday option? DD(6) is doing BBB for the first time this Dec just before MVMCP. She of course wants to do a Frozen dress but in the event that BBB doesn't have her size I think this would be a great dress for the party. Thanks!

Now I could be wrong...but I think they stopped making the Belle holiday dress and I am pretty sure it's not offered at BBB anymore if they do make them....again I could be wrong...but I think I read that a few years ago. You may still be able to find one online somewhere though.

I was thinking the same thing.

ok gotcha. Thanks for the input! The Belle holiday dress not my first choice but I thought it would be a nice "festive" back up if the Frozen dresses are unavailable. DD's first choice would be Anna's coronation dress. I'll try to talk her into another "back up" incase it's unavailable.
Thanks!!

We have an appt at 8:05, so we will be going in before the park opens. I'm unsure where the rope drop is for Fantasyland, does is extend past the castle giving us the opportunity to get our photos done before rope drop? Or do we have to wait until after rope drop to get into Castle Couture?

I hope my question makes sense, lol.

You will line up to the far left...there will be a castmember who will be checking off names for early park reservations...you will be let in at approx 7:45...you will be in the park before the crowds, as long as it's a non EMH Park opening.

We have gotten the first BBB appt the past four years-and this past year, we were the first family in line and got AMAZINGLY pics of an empty Main Street and us in front of the castle without any others in the shot. Photopass photogs will be there to take your pictures.

You can go to Castle Couture as soon as your appt is over-it will be open. The rope for fantasyland is back by the carousel.

Great, thank you so much. You answered everything I was wondering.

Sorry if this has been asked, but my daughter has short chin length hair. I have only seen pics of girls with their hair up. Do they just gel it up? Or would they not put her hair up? Thanks!

 

[ErinsMommy]

Does anyone have pictures of the "color star" hairstyle and is it accurate she doesn't need to get the dress or package with the tutu to get it?

 

[mamatobbg]

We just booked the castle package for my daughter's 5th birthday. Is it true that they no longer add shoes to the outfit? So, it comes with dress, wand and crown? Anything else that they take home with them?

I'm reading they have some frozen dresses? I'm not sure which she would choose, but it would be fun for her to choose that if she wanted (I'm secretly hoping she picks cinderella or belle, but it's her choice!)!

I know its a very subjective question and this is coming from her father but what the heck would you all suggest for a package/costume for her? Is she to old to be dressed as Elsa or Cinderella for ex? We have a reservation Christmas day at 10am. Need some advice!!! Thanks in advance.

My 10 year old dressed as Rapunzel this summer. She was with her three younger cousins and I think that's probably the last time she will dress up like that, but she really enjoyed the experience! We brought a change of clothes too for when she got tired of being dressed up. She had never been to BBB, so I'm glad she got to experience it!
