Have you set up a My Disney Experience account and linked your reservations and tickets to that account? If so, you should be invited to customize your bands on that site. Once customized, the bands will be mailed to your home 4-6 weeks before you arrive.

Worth a mention because I assumed it was common sense but it was not for some of my family members. You have to check in before you attemp to use your bands at the parks or for your dining plan credit. I have no idea why they thought you could do that but apparently not common sense.

Maybe they thought that because they checked in online ahead of time?
Edit: I haven't done this myself, but some people in the internet community have been able to activate their MB at guest relations at a park. The cast member at guest relations just called over to the hotel.
Not sure if that is common or if certain cast members go out of their way to help. I'd suggest calling the resort yourself for advice. They'd probably start by saying that you have to go to the hotel first, but make sure to ask if you could just stop at guest relations at a park instead.
All that being said, you might still get stuck paying for parking.
We're going in October...called about something on our reservation, and the CM asked if we had customized our bands yet, because they've apparently been somewhat "randomly" shipping out...so some get shipped well before they're supposed to...I'm not sure if it necessarily matters if they're customized or not.
