    Hi! I wanted to ask for your recommendation. For a little girl who wants the full Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique experience, what do you think is the best time to book the appointment? And what would you recommend doing afterward to make the most of the day!

    Hiya, Laura! 

    Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney with your Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique questions. This is one of my daughters’ absolute favorite experiences in Disney World! They love choosing their dresses, getting their hair and nails done, and then walking around Magic Kingdom like royalty. And I have to say, watching their faces during the big reveal will always be such a core memory for me. 

    So, Laura, let’s jump right into your question! I recommend scheduling your daughter’s royal transformation earlier in the day. This gives her plenty of time to enjoy her beautiful hairstyle and dress throughout the park. When I booked appointments for my daughters, we chose a time around 10:00 a.m., and it worked perfectly for us. 

    Be sure to book as soon as your 60-day reservation window opens. Appointments are very popular and can disappear faster than Cinderella’s carriage at midnight! 

    Afterward, I highly recommend trying to reserve a meal at Cinderella’s Royal Table. There is nothing quite like dining inside Cinderella Castle while dressed like a princess. The Disney Princesses will also visit your table, so keep your camera ready. These are pictures you will treasure for years! 

    You can continue the royal fun at Princess Fairytale Hall, Enchanted Tales with Belle, and Ariel’s Grotto. Your daughter will have plenty of chances to show off her makeover and meet some of her favorite princesses. 

    If she is not feeling too much like Sleeping Beauty by the end of the night, consider a Magic Kingdom fireworks dessert party. You can enjoy desserts fit for royalty and watch the fireworks from a reserved viewing area. It is such a magical way to end the day. 

    Lastly, no royal makeover is complete without pictures! Memory Maker is a great way to capture the transformation, and Disney PhotoPass photographers are available inside Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. You may also want to book a Capture Your Moment session, which includes a private 20-minute photo session. My family did one in the spring, and we received so many amazing photos. 

    Laura, I hope this helps you plan a day fit for a princess. Please stop by and visit us again if you have any additional questions. 

    See you real soon!
