Hi Mary!
Welcome back to planDisney!
I was so bummed knowing that
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is temporarily unavailable. My oldest daughter loves getting the Fairy Tale makeover of her dreams. During our previous experience, our Fairy Godmother-in-Training was nothing short of magical. She carried on the best conversation about “jellyfish-jelly” or hair gel as we know it to be.
Even though this magical experience is on hold, there is still plenty of magic throughout the Walt Disney World Resort. Princess dresses are still available for purchase throughout. Disney princess dresses are sold at many Resort hotel gift shops, at some shops at Disney Springs, and every Theme Park. My favorite places to find an outfit for my Princesses are at
Mouse Gear at EPCOT and
World of Disney at Disney Springs.
While purchasing a Princess dress while vacationing sounds fabulous, this budget-conscious mama has a little something up her sleeve. I always like to surprise my Princesses with their very own dress that I snuck in my suitcase! I shop ahead of time at my local Disney store or the Disney Online store. You can often find some good deals, especially during this time of year. I recommend bringing some sparking confetti and a note from the Fairy Godmother. After your princess goes to sleep, set the scene with a beautiful Princess dress, some glitter, and that note. Just wait for her reaction when she wakes up in the morning!
I hope that you and your family have the most magical time!
