When my daughter was small, she loved to dress up. She was into make up and such, so I knew I would be taking her to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique when we went to Disney World. She did it for the first time when she was six. It's a place where kids can get hair and makeup done. They can also pick out dresses. Basically, they are pampered.
(My daughter was making this face because they asked if she was meeting a prince later. She was like, "Noooo!")
We went again when she was eight:
There are different packages: the crown, the courtyard, castle, and deluxe castle. When we went the first time, I went with the castle so Natalie could pick out her own dress and accessories, and believe me, she was excited to do this.
But, the truth was, she found the dress to be terribly itchy, so I knew when we went back and we'd do the crown package. This meant she'd get her hair styled, her make up done, a princess sash and cinch sack, plus she'd have her nails done. This time Natalie wore a dress we bought from home. She knew it wasn't itchy.
There are different hair styles your child can pick. The first time Natalie went with the Fairytale Princess, which is the top bun look with a tiny crown. When she went again, she went with the Disney Diva.
They can also pick out their make up colors and yes, they keep the makeup not used, so the entire tray went home with us.
Pixie dust is sprinkled on. (It's glitter!)
The grand finale is when the child is turned around to look in the mirror to see how they look.
Natalie couldn't believe it! She gasped.
So do I think Bippity Boppity Boutique is worth it? Well, yes. Look at the photos! My daughter is thrilled.
TIPS
--There's a Bippity Boppity Boutique in the castle at Magic Kingdom and Disney Springs. We've only done it in the castle. I would strongly suggest making reservations by calling 407-939-7895. There is a chance they can fit you in for a walk in, but it's small, especially during peak times. I would suggest getting an appointment in the morning and then booking a fun place to eat afterwards. We did the Perfectly Princess Tea Party at the Grand Floridian:
--YES, there's a package for boys too called The Knight Package. My son wasn't interested, so we never tried it out, but I've heard boys love it.
--You CAN go in the next day to have the style touched up for free. Granted, you might have to wait if they are incredibly busy, but usually someone will quickly do it.
---It can take up to an hour to get everything done. Yes, there is a Photopass photographer so if you have the Memory Maker, all those photos will be there.
--You can also go across the way I believe to Sir Mickey's and get professional photos done. These will also show up on your Memory Maker.
--Kids ages 3-12 can get an appointment.
--Also, it's not required, but please tip the fairy godmothers in training.
Has your child ever gone to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique?
Not familiar with it/her.. but the name made my tongue roll

ReplyDeleteWhere to become a real princess, a truly magical place where even I would like to go hihihi
Something like this exists. I had no idea. This sounds interesting for kids to have their own pretty day.
ReplyDeleteThis would make any girl (or boy, if they chose to do the Knight Package) ecstatic! The look on her face was so worth it, and her look turned out so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize there was a package for boys! I have 5 grandsons and we visit Disney often and I can't believe I didn't know there was a package for boys. Your daughter is a beautiful princess!
ReplyDeleteEvery little girl wants to be a princess and be pampered for awhile. Totally worth the cost, just look at those photos.
ReplyDeleteive heard great and bad things about this ha- i def would do it for my five year old who loves dressing up and all things glitter ha!
ReplyDeleteThis would be so much fun! Disney defiantly knows how to wine and dine every person there! We have family coming out next year and I think they would love this!
ReplyDeleteWe never did it, I think it would have been fun at least once!
ReplyDeleteThis is nice for any girl my daughter would love it. The name would take some getting use to but I can just shorten it myself lol. My son wouldn't be interested either smh
ReplyDeleteHa, yes, most people just call it BBB.
DeleteI can see that it is worth it. My nieces have gone and they thought it was so fun.
ReplyDeleteThis post makes me sad and although my daughter is almost 18 I miss the princess dressup days. The time goes so fast so we all have to enjoy the kids when they are young.
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to try this. But mine is too old. Sigh. Sometimes I miss the princess stage.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great treat for little girls. Obviously your daughter loved it as expected. I have seen salons that are for little girls like this, but not with the Disney princess theme, which makes it extra cool.
ReplyDeleteThis salon looks so great though! Being turned into a princess?! Of course it is worth it! Wish i had done that when i was a little girl!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness this seems like such an amazing experience for kids! I mean who wouldn't want to be turned into a prince or princess! The photos just show how much she loved it as well!
ReplyDeleteOkay this is ADORABLE and seems like it would be so fun for kids. That would be enough for me!
ReplyDeleteOh my! This is too cute. I'm so glad Natalie enjoyed it as it looks like a lot a fun. Those fairly god mothers look so talented as well. My daughter never go to do this and she is too old for that now.
ReplyDeleteI find it really beautiful. It gives a real-cutie look to the little our wingless fairies.
ReplyDeleteI think it is really worth it to let the girls to experience the make up experience and dressed like a princess. What a wonderful experience and sure the girls will love it.
ReplyDeleteThis would be a lot of fun to bring my nieces to. They love stuff like this.
ReplyDeleteWow, she looks so pretty and much like a princess. That costume is just adorable. Makes me go back to childhood and the good old day
ReplyDeleteShe looks lovely! I think my niece would love to do this. She wants to be a princess.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, what a cute little princess. My grandkids don't like itchy clothes so I'd do the crown package with them as well. This looks like something they'd remember always.
ReplyDeleteWow! She is like a real princess! So beautiful! So glad that she loved this experience!
ReplyDeleteShe looked so cute! The funny thing is that she gasped and she was also surprised about her transformation.
ReplyDeleteNatalie looked really cute in princess outfit, I am sure my daughter will go for Elsa.Since a Disney trip is expensive I am not planning one soon.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like it would be a blast! I would love to take the little ones there.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great review! This looks like a great time!
ReplyDeleteI wish they had this for adults too. I would so dress up as my favorite princess!
ReplyDeleteOMG your post reminds me how time flies so fast, and your daughter Natalie has grown up. Definitely this boutique is a treat for every little princesses.
ReplyDeleteBibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is worth it! Natalie was given such a makeover and she looks just like a princess. I can feel her joy.
ReplyDeleteThis boutique is definitely a full of fun place for kids. So glad to know about this.
ReplyDeleteYou are such a great Mom! You're a Queen for treating your daughter like a Princess.
ReplyDeleteOHHH i've wondered if this was worth it at disneyland! this is a great and insightful review!!!
ReplyDeleteBeing a Disney princess is every little girls dream. I wonder if they have the same makeover but for adults. I mean, just for fun.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteI admit I will also be 30 but I am still in love with these things and I swear I would love to do them, I would like to go back to being a child and enjoy them. I didn't know about this opportunity for little princesses ... beautiful!
Okay I'm 36 and I think this sounds MAGICAL. Definitely such a fun experience. Thanks so much for sharing this with all of us!
ReplyDeleteI think a huge part of the magic is getting all dolled up with princesses around at Disney. Otherwise I would say no, but I would have loved this! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOKAY that is friggin' adorable! What a cute and amazing experience for a little girl to have!!! I would say it's SOOOOO worth it!
ReplyDeleteI'm find is extremely expensive but extremely necessary.Our girls need to feel like princesses.
ReplyDeleteMy grand daughter did that a few years back and thought it was best thing ever!! She still talks about it now and again.
ReplyDeleteWe just went in December with out kids and didn't stop here, but I saw it and wondered if it was worth it. Definitely looks fun. Just couldn't justify the cost.
ReplyDeletePeople really enjoy it but I never did it with our daughter. A good alternative is the barber shop in MK!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea this existed...what a magical idea! If only i'd thought of it haha. Your daughter looks more than thrilled. Thanks for sharing so I can pass along this information.
ReplyDeleteAs a Disney lover, this looks like so much fun! I have been to Disney World at least 15 times and never knew about this, but would definitely do this for my (future) children. Thanks for all the great tips!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! We've only done Disney once and it was on my daughter's golden birthday. We did not do the boutique :( Our days in Florida were so jam packed.
ReplyDeleteShe looks so pretty in that look..... Same as a disney princess.....
ReplyDeleteOh I love how excited she clearly was about this! Do they have this for adults??? because I want to be a princess for a day too!! ;D
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, so cute! My daughter is a total tom boy. Red lipstick is the only makeup I've ever witnessed her to want. Haa! I wish she would want to be a princess for a day!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun experience but I bet it costs half a fortune! With 9 kids, that's not really doable for me.
ReplyDeleteFrom the pictures, it is definitely WORTH IT, she looks so cute and happy. I can't wait to go back to Disney.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of this but it looks like so much fun. My baby girl is 18 now though! I guess I won't be taking her. :)
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Your daughter looks like she is in pure joy from the experience. Looks like a disney dream come true����
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Natalie really enjoyed the experience, I had no idea they did this! I imagine my kids would have like something like this when they were younger.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter loved going to the boutique. It's a must for us when we go to Disney.
ReplyDeleteThis is such an adorable and special memory for them! We don't have kids, but we've been talking about going to Disney with the nieces and if we do, I think we'll splurge on this for each of them as our gift to them!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea! My daughter would have loved this when we visited and she was 7!
ReplyDeleteI've never been to Disney World, but this sounds adorable!
ReplyDeleteOne of our first places to go after quarantine life will be Disneyland. My daughter used to love dressing up and visiting princesses. I think she would absolutely love going to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, now that she's old enough to appreciate it. We went there when she was much younger. Your little princess is absolutely adorable!
ReplyDeleteThats very cute! haha. My niece would surely love that idea... Ive been to Disney once, and the next time I will go back there, I'll bring my soon-to-be kids and nieces. <3
ReplyDeleteI didn't even know this was a thing. I've been to Disneyland Paris twice and never saw this advertised, so it must only be a US thing. I personally wouldn't have liked this but I know my sister would have loved it!
ReplyDeleteThis is for sure a magical place for little girls. The best way to feel like a princess for a day!
ReplyDeleteWe might go to Disney later this year. THanks for the review and sharing your experience.
ReplyDeleteThis is just the cutest! My daughter would LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteJust look at that smile! It looks like it was worth it just for her experience!
ReplyDeleteWe can’t wait to visit Disney one day and do this!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great article because I have always wondered about this. I assumed it was expensive but didn't know what was really involved. It looks really cool. My daughter is over princesses, but I think she would just like to be pampered and made up.
ReplyDeleteWow that seems like paradise for younger kids. So cute
ReplyDeleteAww she;s so cute!!! I love Disney so much!! I have been so many times love it everytime
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such a fun experience. I'll make a reservation for my daughter the next time we go. She loves having her makeup and hair done.
ReplyDeleteThough the name of the place seems a bit difficult to pronounce, it's a nice boutique for kids to have such an experience.
ReplyDeleteYour girl looks adorable! Glad she had a wonderful time during her visit. Can't wait until our girl is older and can experience something similar.
ReplyDeleteHow adorable I wish they had this when my daughter was young. She looks like she is having a great time.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite things at Disney World is to admire little girls in their princesses outfits with make-up and tiny crowns. I took my niece to Bibbidi Bobbidi boutique a few years ago on her birthday at Disney Springs and she absolutely loved it!
