This is the first and will be the only place I will ever want to do a singing telegram with. I called last minute on Valentine's Day morning expecting to hear they didn't have anymore bookings, but they did! I'm so glad too because this was the highlight of the day. She arrived right on time & had everyone at my fiancé's job recording the performance! She showed up in the pink monkey suit playing a small guitar & sang 2 songs. They provided a pink stuffed monkey to match the costume & a letter from me to my fiancé. I didn't get to choose the songs but they were still great nonetheless. I highly recommend using their services when you want to make someone's day. I wasn't sure who was more pink, the monkey or my fiancé from being so surprised! read more

I can't wait until I can use them again! When you're trying to pull off a secret Teacher Appreciation gift that involves 33 10-year-olds, their parents, school rules and regs and a teacher that deserves nothing but the best (who happens to have an ever-changing schedule), it's asking a lot. Oh, and did I mention that I came up with this idea less than a week before we needed it to happen? Thank you Justeen! We asked for a chicken witty and entertaining enough for our super fun and intelligent teacher, that the parents would laugh at AND that the kids would enjoy, and you definitely pulled it off! Chuck, you are a phenomenal chicken!!! All I had to do was make a phone call and then fill out the email questionnaire and Chuck tailored our presentation just for us! It was fun and you personalized it just enough. It never sounded like you were reading a script or doing the same tired old act. Upbeat and fun...even at the last minute. When the schedule changed at the very last minute, I was afraid they wouldn't be able to make it happen, and I worried about an increased fee since all we had to work with was our donation money. Not a problem. They were completely accommodating, no extra fee, and they kept in contact with me every step of the way. Chuck arrived just as planned and everything went off without a hitch. I will absolutely use A Class Act again. Chuck tells us he does 40 different characters, and I can't wait to see some more. He's very talented, polite and patient. This really is a class act service! read more

I was looking for a unique way to send birthday wishes from Vancouver, B.C. to my sister-in-law in L.A. I read every review of these guys and decided to go for it. I emailed Justeen and she responded right away. My sister-in-law is a huge fan of Frozen so I asked her if there was a possibility she could find an Elsa to come sing to her at her office. And she made it happen! I even got a call from the actor who played Elsa that morning to go over anything I wanted her to say and make sure everything was all set. It was great! Elsa arrived right on time, gave a little card with a personalized note in it, and sang "Let it go" to the whole office, while twirling my sister-in-law and putting a tiara on her head. She was so happy. Elsa stayed around to take some photos with others too. From start to finish the service was great. It was a great experience and I totally recommend this to anyone wanting to give a unique birthday present to anyone. read more

Typical party gathering calls for flowers, balloons, champagne and cake, but how about adding another element? Well It was our office's 10 year anniversary and we wanted to show our company boss some love, so we decided on the usually delicious treats and I added a singing telegram to the mix and it was a total hit! Elvis killed it! He kept the ladies mesmerized with his charming personality as we all know Elvis is, he chose an appropriate song for the occasion and all the girls got up and danced. Best of all the company who provided Elvias was professional, Elvis was right on time and it was reasonably priced. Thank you Class Act Singing Telegram - you made it a memorable gathering! read more

Fantastic! I called SUPER last minute (2 hours before) for my boyfriend's birthday and was accomodated with no problem. She was right on time in the full on chicken costume with a customized song and provided balloons. a little stuffed monkey and a card. His whole office loved it and he was as mortified as I could have hoped. Happy Birthday, motherclucker! XD I will definitely be recommending A Class Act! Thank you! read more

Through and through, A Class Act is a beyond a class act! We had such a great experience and I would definitely use them again! I wanted to surprise my father for his birthday, so we hired Christina based on a yelp recommendation and Justeen's high praise. She managed to wow a tough crowd and a tough person of honor (who did not want at all to be the center of attention no less celebrate his birthday). Her voice is absolutely beautiful and she did an amazing job incorporating information I gave her about my father in her very funny skit. It must have been a bit challenging for her, but you would never know. She was wonderful!! Everyone could not stop talking about how fantastic she was for the rest of the evening. I would HIGHLY recommend her for your next party or for that matter anyone that Justeen has in her crew, including herself as Marilyn. Guaranteed fantastic and far beyond your expectations. read more

My wife wanted an opera singer for my birthday party, since I am a lifelong opera fan. She booked a professional opera singer through A Class Act Singing Telegrams and the singer, Christine, who came to the party was a HUGE HIT with everyone there, young and old, even though most of our guests are not opera fans. This was no wannabe amateur opera singer -- in fact, she left everyone in the room marveling at the purity, clarity and strength of her beautiful voice. Christine arrived in the costume of a Valkyrie, a female figure of Norse mythology who figures prominently in Wagnerian opera. She began with a witty, comic routine, then performed three well-loved arias, two in Italian and one in French: "The Habanera" (from the opera "Carmen", by Georges Bizet), "Nessun Dorma" (from Puccini's opera "Turandot") and "O Mio Babbino Caro" (from Puccini's opera "Gianni Schicchi"). During her performance of "The Habanera", she and danced a sort of hammy tango/salsa/swing dance, which she carried off with great aplomb and without missing a note! She, of course, led everybody in a rousing chorus of "Happy Birthday". Very talented, very professional, and very, very FUN! Both my wife and I were pleased as punch with Christine and A Class Act Singing Telegrams -- Very Highly Recommended! read more

Everyone had a great time! My boss was the recipient of 'Richard Simmons', who came into the conference room at the office while she was in the middle of a presentation. He made the perfect entrance... as the office staff began to gather all around - before long the conference room was packed and everyone was laughing hysterically! He was just the right amount of wrong for our conservative office !! It was the best party ever, despite my boss threatening to fire me :) Justeen was easy to work with, answered every question patiently and professionally. I would definitely recommend! read more

I set this up for someone's birthday, and she -loved- it. I'm a little wary of things in LA, but this was top notch! Justeen was nice on the phone, made it easy to set up.... wonderful. Hilarious. Memorable. The song was great (she loves that one!) Absolutely unique, thank you SO much! read more

One word....AMAZING Justeen is definitely a class act and surely knows how to provide top tier entertainment. Justeen was able to set up an Elvis performance on the same day!! She was very patient with setting up the performance and walked me through all the details I needed to know to set up the perfect Elvis performance for my girlfriend. And speaking of the performance, my girlfriend and her friends loved Elvis and the show he put on! In her words, "the best birthday gift ever!!!!" Definitely getting some brownie points for this one!! I highly recommend "A Class Act Singing Telegram" to everybody who is looking into getting a singing telegram!!! Thank you so much Justeen for setting this up for me and the extremely friendly service. Keep up the good work!! read more

The best, funniest, yet still professional choice for a singing telegram. Justeen was great and put in a genuine effort. She wrote a birthday song for my dad and completely embarrassed him at work. I went with the pink gorilla. Definitely use this company! read more

We had the chicken for a bday party. First off he was late and rude to a guest outside. He was very inappropriate with his mannerisms, not funny at all. His suit was open and you could see his underwear. Absolutely awful! He made the bday girl cry out of pure embarrassment. Honestly money should be refunded to the family. read more

I've used A Class Act birthday telegram for the last two years. Last year Justeen came as a computer nerdette. This year she came as a bag lady. Both times went very well. Both the recipient and her work colleagues had a great time watching and laughing throughout her act. Justeen is very funny and played both characters beautifully. Arranging the birthday telegram only takes a few minutes. One phone call and an email giving background information and its done. A birthday telegram does not cost much more than sending flowers but provides a much more unique experience for the recipient. However, it is only good as the company delivering it. A Class Act delivers. read more

I was in a bind yesterday, I was supposed to fly down to LA for a close relatives' retirement party but got sick and couldn't make it. Since I couldn't make it, I figured a singing telegram would be a nice gift to send. BUT I scoured yelp and other resources and could not find an act that that I thought my family would enjoy as they are rather conservative. But then I came across "A Class Act" and WOW!, did Justeen come through. Fortunately for me, she was able to take a same day request and she seriously delivered a class act. My family LOVED her. Justeen has several acts to choose from with different performers but I figured it would best to go with her Marilyn Monroe character which is actually Justeen performing and WOW, she did amazing from what I hear. She added life to the party and was able to include personal details in her songs. She performed, "Thanks for the Memories", "Unforgettable" and more. She customized the songs and really gave it a personal touch. Justeen even accommodated a last minute switch in performance time. My parents were stuck in horrible LA traffic and I asked Justeen last minute if she could wait an extra 20 minutes for them to get there. And Justeen did! That was soooo nice and so helpful. Thank you Justeen for making the retirement party a success! read more

If anyone is looking for a singing telegram I HIGHLY RECOMMEND A CLASS ACT! I stumbled upon the idea of a singing telegram online and I was looking for a company who does it in Los Angeles. After YELPing singing telegram.. A class act popped up and I am so glad they did. I had so many question since this was my first time sending one and I didn't know what to expect and Justeen answered promptly, professionally, and quickly via email. She sends you questions to answer about the telegram recipient and you can pay by phone or upon arrival of the telegram. I ordered a hip hop chicken for my boyfriends birthday and I was happy I did. His coworker recorded the entire 10 minute show. The hip hop chicken embarrassed him and that's exactly what I was going for. I wish he had used some more of the embarrassing things I provided him but that's okay it was still funny. The chicken made a flower hat out of balloons for him and read the message I provided Justeen on the card. It was a great inordinate birthday gift that I would definitely do again. Thanks A Class Act! read more

I ordered a singing telegram for my husband's 60th birthday celebration as a surprise. It really livened up the party! I loved Marilyn!! She was so funny and risque, but classy! I just loved her skit and songs! Great comedic timing and excellent inclusion of all the pertinent info in such a humorous way! The balloon blowing was perfect! Loved the little creature with the tongue sticking out (was that a duck?) My husband carried that balloon hat all night long. Would definitely recommend this company! read more

Our singing telegram just left and it was awesome! Great performer, great customer service, absolute perfection. Thanks!

I contacted Justeen just recently looking for a singing telegram to send to my boyfriend's office. I honestly don't know how they did it with the short turnaround (a window of just 5 hours), but they put together an AMAZING show for my boyfriend (and all his colleagues who were lucky to be around the office at that time). I heard from several people at my boyfriend's office (they sent me emails about it right after) saying what a wonderful and hilarious job Mark did. He was professional, super funny and charismatic. I requested him to show as Richard Simmons and it couldn't have been a more hilarious fit. Thank you so much Justeen and Mark! I'm sending an email to all my friends about your service. I will definitely use you guys again and recommend anyone else to use you as well. read more

I ordered the gorilla for my husband for our 2nd anniversary. The surprise took place at his work. I wasn't there but I did get a video. It was more than I expected! The guy secretly gathered my husband's whole office and then spun my husband's chair around to surprise him with everyone standing there. The gorilla sung a song and then made my husband a balloon hat and gave him a card and a hug. He also made jokes based on the info I provided. I hate talking on the phone and I was able to book everything via email and pay with Paypal which made the booking process super easy. I didn't give 5 stars because I thought the guy was going to make up a song based on our personally info but he didn't; he just made jokes. Also something I did not like was that he read the card outloud. If I knew that was going to happen I would have made it less personal. Overall it was pretty great though. read more

Awesome service. I called Justine today to send Edith Piaf to my husbands office. Edith walked in and said "Hello, I'm Edith Piaf." She was lovely and sang La Vie En Rose as though she really IS Edith Piaf !! Thank you ! A wonderful Valentine's present for my love. read more

Justine was Amazing. First she had to deal with me barely knowing what I wanted & after choosing the infamous Marilyn Monroe act we had to figure out when my friend would be back from his long work day. In the end because I was miles away in NY she & my friend video messaged the entire act & might I say class act indeed. read more

I hired Chuck to sing for my husband's bday at his work and he was professional and so entertaining! This is my first experience with a singing telegram and I'm so happy everyone at the dealership enjoyed it, there were about 20-30 of my husband's co workers and everyone had so much fun!! Justeen, the owner, was also very easy to work with and accommodating to a last minute change in the performance time. My hubby was also happy with his special bday surprise :) read more

I decided at the last minute to send a singing gorilla to my son for his birthday, i called the day before, Justeen was so great in helping to plan this surprise. The production was great! showed up on time, was very engaging, used all the information I gave her to make it so personal. All great and I would highly recommend ! read more

Amazing that you can call up and on short notice get an entertainer to go surprise someone for their birthday or other event. We just used the service for the first time today. I called and made a request around 3 pm yesterday to have a grim reaper visit our client today for his 50th birthday. Went off without a hitch. Justeen is professional and personable on the phone and makes reservations a breeze. She also asks for some background on the recipient so they can add a personal touch to the service, and will help you decide on a character and message if you're unsure. Great local company. read more

I find vendors all over Yelp, so I read the reviews, called and spoke to Justeen. Since I've never used a singing telegram or any entertainer without having seen the act I was extremely nervous. She read my mind. She knows entertainment, crowds, this business and client needs very well. She suggested the Bag Lady character for my sister who is retiring from the Sheriff's Department. With the information I provided, Justeen put on a one of a kind show. My sister was in tears of joy and from laughing. She thought it was so special and thoughtful, and Justeen made it that way. I couldn't believe the way she worked that information into an act, as if she'd know my sister for years. Good clean hilarious act. Justeen only had two weeks to prepare, and it was in front of a police officer crowd. Justeen was not intimidated. She did her thing. I was hoping no guns accidentally discharged from the people doubling over laughing. I hope this generates a lot of business for this company. The show was a hit. Beyond what I expected. Although the singing telegram was just a personal present for my sister, everyone was entertained. I'm known for the parties I plan, and my reputation was boosted 100 times over. I've used comedians, photo booths, etc. but this show BEAT ALL. The police Captain thanked me, saying, "That made this one of the best retirements I've attended. She was hilarious." I wish Justeen had left business cards. I know I will be using A Class Act again. It's been three days and I am still getting thanks on my FB page. My sister says everyone is talking about the Bag Lady. Justeen I can't thank you enough for helping me express to my sister, and the on lookers, how much I love her. read more

Called Justeen at the last minute (2 days before the party) and she totally came through. We wanted a singing cowboy for a 40th birthday and she absolutely delivered. Cowboy was hilarious--integrated all the pertinent details we had told her about-- and sang Home on the Range, Happy Birthday and made balloon animals and swords for the kids. Fantastic. She is super professional, responsive and detail-oriented. Responded to my email within minutes. Highly recommended! I am already trying to think of what other events I could use her for. read more

We have used A Class Act several times over the past years, and they have been great every time. The Elvis and Showgirl have performed at both of my parents 70th birthday celebrations, and I could not ask for anything more! The songs were great, and the kiss that Elvis gave my mom is something that everyone at the party will always remember! Thanks Justeen - Great As Always!! read more

they were awesome! i asked justeen to come up with 6 specific acts for my friend's 40th birthday to pay tribute to various costumes he has worn in the past, with just 10 days notice and she came through perfectly, timing them exactly how we wanted them. the performers were all hilarious, on-time, and professional. when we had a last-minute time change, justeen changed around the whole schedule of performers with 15 minutes notice. amazing service. we loved it! read more
