Welcome back to planDisney, Beverly Diane!
Thank you for stopping by once again with another magical question. We are excited to continue to help you plan an unforgettable gender reveal photo session at the Walt Disney World Resort.
Magic Kingdom Park shops are usually open during scheduled
park hours, so even if you are staying at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel and taking advantage of
Early Theme Park Entry (also available at other participating hotels), I think it will still be too close to your scheduled
Capture Your Moment session. Early Entry hours at Magic Kingdom Park usually start at 8:30 AM, so I highly recommend bringing everything you need instead of browsing the shops just minutes before your photo session (park hours are subject to change without notice).
Although I love the
Emporium at Magic Kingdom Park, I believe you may find more options for your gender reveal at Disney Springs. Do you have time to plan a visit to Disney Springs before the date of your Capture Your Moment session? I recommend stopping by
World of Disney and
Disney’s Wonderful World of Memories to shop for cute items. I bought special Mickey ear hats for my girls at Disney’s Wonderful World of Memories last year and had them embroidered at the store. However, if you cannot do some shopping before your visit, I also suggest checking out options available online at
shopDisney.com and having your purchase delivered to your home before traveling to the Walt Disney World Resort. Shopping ahead will also avoid the frustration of not finding items you hoped to use for the gender reveal photo session.
It was a pleasure answering your question, Beverly Diane. I hope this information is helpful and that you have a magical Capture Your Moment session!
Best Disney wishes,
Thiana
