Mine too. Must be the new update?

Ahh could be.

I just picked up my costume today!

I got the deluxe Snow White costume from the Walmart website.
It was on clearance for $21 and arrived at the store with free shipping in only 3 days (said in John from CoP voice lol)
I just tried it on and it fits great.
Can't wait for September 1st.
My sister is wearing her Belle blue village dress that she bought for last year's party from Etsy.

We aren't having a heck of a time figuring out costumes for three.

I'm also hesitant to buy online lest the quality be super crappy but I also don't want to pay an arm and a leg.

Okay, I replied back again and asked for further confirmation/clarification and got this back:

I have to wonder based on that response for booking FP selections between 4:00 pm and 6:30 pm and some other CMs saying to book two FP if the issue is booking prior to four?

I'm going to go forward with booking two and keeping them between 4 and 6:30 and then keep all these emails. Fingers crossed!

So did I read this correctly in that we make FP for all other days first, then party days between 4-6? I was going to skip FP altogether but this seems to indicate we can make them for the party after 4.

My opinion on the subject is if you don't have any special planned theme then don't go crazy over it.
I wouldn't spend over $50 per person especially if you probably won't wear it beyond this one time because if you go again you may very well want something different.

I may have missed something.
You were having trouble making FP+ with your party ticket?

 

[Queen of the WDW Scene]

We are able to wear our full costume starting at 4pm right?
I mean I know I did last year but it was also more of a Disneybournding outfit so now I'm trying to think back about if others were in full costumes at 4pm. I'm thinking yes but can I get some confirmation from others?

 

[Queen of the WDW Scene]

BTW I booked my FP+ for my 2 day park hopper tickets and then for my MNSSHP ticket and I booked from 3:15pm-4:15pm, 4:25pm-5:25pm, and 5:30pm-6:30pm and had no issues.

Yes!

The issue doesn't come up in the booking process, it happens later. We booked FP a few weeks back and had no trouble, it I got an email telling me I had too many FPs today... it's looking like you're allowed 2 FPs for a party ticket between 4:00 PM and 6:30 PM. But it's all still a question mark as every time a CM is contacted a different answer is being given.

Isn't that first one calling it close if you can only get in at 4 at the earliest? I am even a little worried about my 3:30 FP for Jungle Cruise.

How long after you booked them did you get an email telling you that you had too many?
I guess I should be on the look out.

I did 3:20-4:20 last year.
I was let in at 3:40 so there was no issue.
with a 3:15-4:15 I see no issue either plus there's the grace period just in case.
I'm not at all worried.

 

[MISSYLEXI]

Are any of the MNSSHP dates sold out? I don't see any sold out dates listed on the first post.

Got this today: "Official" 2017 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Boo to You!

When I called the number they said I could book passes from 4:30-6:30 but everyone else has been told 4-6:30... I cancelled my 3:20-4:20 pirates and adjusted my 4:20-5:20 HM to be at 4:30. However, the alert about the email is still showing on MDE. I'll let you guys know what happens tomorrow.

 

[MISSYLEXI]

I have been trying to book my FP for the party, but because I have FP for Epcot that day it will not allow me to do it. It tells me I already have FP for the day if I try to change I will lose the ones I have.

You have not been able to do that in the past.
You only get 3 advanced FP+ selections per day. Does not matter if you have a regular ticket and a party ticket.

Each MDE profile can only prebook a maximum of 3 FP per day despite the number of tickets you are planning to use on that day. The system won't allow you to book more than 3 FP per day unfortunately.
