Trip Planning Characters..

[real mad hatter]

Good Morning Everyone...Was watching our 2008 Disney vacation last night.It was the first time we got T- Shirts made with a Disney character on them..I picked Peter Pan ( The boy who never grew up ) Perfect choice I thought.So do any of you do anything similar when planning your trip..P.S. We also try to get our photo taken with our chosen character.I saw a large family one year with kids,parents,& grandparents and had the seven dwarfs on theirs..The gramps was Grumpy and he looked like the real thing,beard and all.

Have had something more permanent But did get my photo taken with most of the characters (just Jessica Rabbit and Megera to go )

Yes my boys wore their Kingdom Hearts shirts for meeting the fab 5. They also wore Star Wars shirts for our SWW day! It's always fun to plan what they are going to wear for meeting certain characters. Sometimes it's a shirt with the character on it, but one of the cutest things happened when my ds (red head) dressed like Phineas, blue shots and an orange and white striped shirt. My ds was first on line and Phineas came over and dropped the rope to let him in and start playing with him. Drove the photo pass photographer crazy! Thankfully my dh got a lot of good shots.

We used to have one day when we wore shirts that I had made but now we do similar shirts on the same days like jimmy buffett concert shirts one day, baseball shirts another. We ate big Minnesota Wild hockey fans so we always wear our Wild tee shirts when we go to Animal Kingdom because it is a "wild" place!

Well, typically, I wear a T-shirt that has a country represented in World Showcase in Epcot. So one year, I wore a t-shirt from Canada. Another year, I wore a USA Hockey t-shirt. Who knows? In future years, I might wear a USA soccer jersey, my Arsenal jersey to represent the UK or something like that. For the MK, I have a Mickey shirt I made at Design A Tee on one trip that I wore at the MK on my last trip. Soothing to get positive feedback from the CMs! For HS, I bought a red Indy Jones t-shirt that I wore last March. In the past, I wore NY gear because Streets of America has NY in it. So basically, I wear something that fits with the park.

I forgot to mention I always wear my now famous Figment pack to EPCOT

Yes, I have gotten matching family Disney character-themed shirts for a few of our trips. It's fun to pick a day to wear them and get family photos in the matching shirts.

My favorite character (and the only one worthy of emulating) is Mulan. I take a pic with her every year in the China pavilion.

For our December 2012 trip with the 2 grand-kids my wife MADE tee shirts for us all. We all match each other with a different design for every day. Each design went with what ever park we were going to. All had our names of the shoulder. Got a lot of comments about them. Especially the tie died ones. It took a lot of work to make the tie die come out in the shape of Mickey ears.

My wife always has special shirts or complete outfits made for the kids, but I just can't do it myself. Sorry, but I just can't do the family dress up in Disney cloths thing

Sorry hatter, just not my thing. As often as I go, I just don't think I would ever feel comfortable doing it.

I'll often try and coordinate our girls' attire for something related to the day. Last trip, we had family shirts made. I had originally wanted to get ones with the saying on the image below, but instead, with our respective fave characters...me=Donald, DH=Stitch, DD6=Belle, DD4=Pooh ...but I couldn't justify the price. So, I got the ones below for all of us to wear.

While I don't always wear Disney stuff while in the parks, you're most likely to see me in something Donald more than any other character.

No probs..I know a family of 9 who went last year,one of the party went ahead and got 9 T -Shirts made with various character names,but the grandpa refused to wear his because his theme was Grumpy..LOL.

I'm debating having custom shirts made up with our names on it...will probably use an image of the Fab Five.

 

[Mr Toad]

I would love to wear my Starfleet gold command uniform to SWW...or dress up like a Klingon!!!

 

[DizneyPryncess]

I have a lot of Disney tee's with Tinkerbell on them - and I wore one whenever we met the fairies. She said she liked my "leaf", ha. Now I dress DD accordingly. She wore a Minnie outfit the day we met Minnie & Mickey. And she dressed up like Belle during our BoG dinner, so she would go well with Beast.

I've just ordered a '1st trip to Disney' t shirt for my DS, ready for our trip in December. I tried to convince my DH that we should join in, but the raised eyebrow said it all

In 2008 for our Disneymoon, everyday myDH and I had matching character shirts that I made that were couples of Disney and said Just Married and our names. We had a blast on that trip.
