Hiya Rachel! Welcome to planDisney! Thanks for stopping by with this great question.
There are not many things more iconic than
Cinderella Castle. From the first time my daughters laid eyes on it, they wanted to know how we could get inside. Luckily, not only can you dine inside at Cinderella's Royal Table, but your little ones can also receive a royal transformation at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique.
When searching for availability at
Cinderella's Royal Table, you will have the option to make a reservation for up to 20 Guests. However, finding a reservation for a large group may be challenging. This dining location is one of the most sought-after restaurants, so seating will fill up quickly. When Advanced Dining Reservations open up 60 days before your arrival, I would initially try for a party of 10 to see if you have any luck. If it is immediately not available, I would pivot your strategy and try to make reservations for two smaller groups.
When you arrive onsite the day of your reservation, head over to Cinderella's Royal Table early to check in. You can let the Cast Member know your situation and that you want to be seated close together. While this will only be a request, they will do their very best to accommodate your party. I would also mention that you are celebrating your Mom's birthday so they can inform the Cast Member serving you that day.
As I mentioned earlier, if you are traveling with little ones, a visit to
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique before dining at Cinderella's Royal Table is the quintessential experience. They will be dressed up with their hair, makeup, and nails done before dining with your favorite Disney Princesses. There is even a Knight Package available for any young Guests who prefer this option.
Rachel, I wish you the best of luck in securing your dining reservations for your upcoming stay. Make sure to grab your Mom a birthday pin when you arrive at the Magic Kingdom on that day. You should be able to find one at the
Guest Relations booth outside the entrance to the park or at various locations inside.
Happy planning!
Greg
