Hi Mary, and welcome to planDisney!
If you are planning for
MagicBands, that means that a
Walt Disney World Resort is on the horizon for you at some point!
You have asked a great question, and I, too, have faced this dilemma before, and it can be disappointing, but you do have options that may get you the MagicBand you desire. One option would be to keep checking back to see if the MagicBand you want is available as the styles and colors change often. Another option would be to search
shopDisney.com for their available MagicBands or see if it is available when you arrive on property. If you purchase from shopDisney or on property, the MagicBands will not be customized. Do not forget to make your theme park reservations using the
Disney Park Pass Reservation System to ensure you are able to visit the theme parks you desire.
Please return should you have additional questions; we are here if you need us.
Have a magical adventure!
Raquel
