Hi Mona, welcome to planDisney!
I'm sorry to hear your Walt Disney World Resort planning has encountered an Eeyore moment. Let's turn that frown upside down by imagining the thrill of seeing
Happily Ever After fireworks over Cinderella Castle. This beloved nighttime spectacular's theme song reminds us that, "Every step we take brings a new hope, a new day." Let me explain what's going on with Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom Park reservations before we focus on a new hope.
Reservations for
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom Park open at midnight EST 60 days in advance. Guests staying at Disney Resorts Collection hotels can book for their entire length of stay (up to 10 days) 60 days before check-in, which explains why reservations can be full over 60 days in advance. When booking an appointment for my daughter in November, I was eligible for the Disney Resort hotel perk and noticed that availability didn't open up until day three of our vacation. All this to say, there are regretfully not enough Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom Park reservations to meet demand, especially during the spring break season. You did nothing wrong and your task now is to model perseverance and creativity for your young knight or princess as you dream a new dream.
An online search for magical makeovers in the Orlando area produces multiple options for your new dream. I've been impressed by the skills of quite a few former Cast Members in the Ear for Each Other group on social media, as well. A royal transformation can even take place in your hotel room, can you imagine that?! Stop by
Sir Mickey's in Fantasyland for some pixie dust (no reservation required) and preserve your core memories with a
Capture Your Moment photo shoot.
I'll also mention that Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom Park availability changes in real-time as Guests are constantly reimagining their park days. There's always a chance a reservation will pop up and there are even online reservation finders that use the power of technology to boost your chances of securing a last-minute reservation. There are no guarantees availability will open up, but I'm saving one of my three wishes for you, Mona!
Reach out and find your happily ever after,
Jennifer
