Hi, Jennifer! Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
I am so excited to hEAR that you are looking into
Story Book Dining at Artist Point with Snow White! This meal has quickly become one of my family's favorites! We attended this relatively new
character dining experience for the first time last summer. My husband loved his prime rib so much that he specifically requested that we make another
reservation for Story Book Dining for our trip that took place a couple of weeks ago. I'm happy to tell you that the prime rib was just as delicious the second time we visited!
In addition to the top-notch menu, Story Book Dining at Artist Point with Snow White also offers some fun and unique character interactions. Snow White, Grumpy, and Dopey will visit you at your table while you are enjoying your meal. Then once you have finished eating, The Queen will summon you to come to meet with her in the center of the restaurant. The Queen feels that she is the fairest of them all, so she certainly does not mind posing for pictures. A
Disney PhotoPass Service photographer will be on hand to capture some photos of your encounter with The Queen.
For the most part, your Disney friends tend to visit you at your table during character dining experiences. As they make their rounds to visit with guests, you are welcome to take pictures with your own camera, but they will not have a Disney PhotoPass Service photographer with them. However, there are a few character dining experiences that offer an opportunity to pose for a photo either with a character or in front of a fun, themed back-drop before you are seated at your table. Disney PhotoPass Service photographers do capture these particular moments for you. The following are some of the character dining experiences that currently offer a Disney PhotoPass Service picture prior to your meal:

Character dining experiences tend to be very popular. Reservations are recommended and can be made 180 days in advance. I hope that you enjoy some delicious meals, as well as some memorable visits with your Disney pals during your vacation. If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
Have a magical day!
Samantha
