They arrived right on time, set everything up quickly and efficiently, and the play area looked fantastic. The kids had the best time! At the end of the party, teardown was just as smooth and prompt.

I highly recommend Monica and her team and would absolutely book with them again!

She reached out the day before to confirm details and arrived promptly at the venue. Set up was smooth and she walked us through the general guidelines for the kids. The kids loved playing in the area all throughout the party! Perfect for the age group 0-5yrs as stated. They timely arrived back at the end for clean up and confirmed when they were heading out. Deposit was returned promptly as well. Would use their services again if we ever do another kid party! Will recommend to any other parents we know as well :)

My daughter's birthday was cancelled due to coronavirus and we were heartbroken. Then I found My Once Upon A Time and booked an Elsa Sing Along for my daughter and 8 friends. Loni is a true professional, she recommended the best Singing Elsa even though she could have saved the job for herself. Queen Elsa's zoom was jaw dropping!!! She might be a legitimate Disney employee, she was SO in character. She also sang 4 songs for the Sing Along and had an amazing voice! I highly, highly, highly recommend My Once Upon A Time!

[EDIT] I want to respond to Dulci's wildly inaccurate claims in detail…read more 1// There was parking had entertainer arrived on time. I held a spot but obviously had to give it away when she didn't show up on time. 2// No one treated her unkindly upon her arrival. I asked front desk staff to please look out for performer arrival as they've been nothing but helpful with the kids party, we can corroborate with video footage if needed. This is slandering MCC staff 3// I was texting Dulci and calling the performer throughout her arrival, trying to help her find the clubhouse and also trying to help her with the elevator (and direct her to where balloons are for entrance). Her stress came from being late to the party and not finding parking in the main lot, not from any unkindness toward her. What an outrageous experience trying to blame the parent and the staff when services provided wasn't up to par. I stand by my review - and I think Dulci's response is a great example of the type of gaslighting that will happen to you if you book through this business. [Original Review] This was quite a negative experience TBH. We booked a princess for a 5yo birthday party in Moraga about 2 months in advance and the beginning of the process was easy enough. It's a pretty standard booking. However, every single interaction after I paid the deposit was like pulling teeth. They got my name wrong. I had to chase down the entertainer. I never got timely confirmations (despite promises that I'll be contacted). A week before and 2 nights before and I'm still tracking down who the entertainer is. And the entertainer showed up ~45mins late to a 2 hour party. I've included screenshots of communications. I am shocked they have so many positive reviews - please reconsider unless you want to micromanage the entire process and be disappointed. However, I do want to be fair and did not give 1 star because the entertainer did finally show up and she did entertain the kids (although for 1 hour not 2 like I booked, but I still paid her $150 for 1 hour of her time). So, I would not book again through this provider. Dulci refunded me my deposit, but that doesn't give me the valuable time back for the birthday.

We loved our experience with I Am Princess parties. The young lady that was Ariel came on time and…read moreshe looked just like the character she was portraying. She was great with the kiddos and so very engaging as well. The kids were captivated by her singing and the sweet activities she did with them. My daughter asked me when we could have another princess come to our house right after the party was over. The kids also loved getting their face painted as well. I would highly recommend I Am Princess Parties to anyone looking to have a wonderful Princess or character experience for their children!

She makes you feel like you have known her for years. Clear and concise with what she wants, prompt responses, and a whole lot of fun.

If you're looking for a planner who brings not only a vision to life but infuses it with soul,…read moreheart, precision, and grace--look no further than Andrea of Mia Emma Love Events. I recently had the absolute pleasure of working alongside Andrea for an extravagant, Wicked-themed birthday celebration at the Grand Bay Hotel in San Francisco. As a DJ, I've been part of my fair share of complex productions--but this event? This one had layers. We're talking immersive design, multiple performances, theatrical moments, choreographed timing, lighting cues, and the kind of attention to detail that would make Broadway stage managers sweat. And yet--through every twist, change, last-minute curveball, and behind-the-scenes chaos--Andrea stayed calm, composed, and genuinely joyful. That smile never left her face. It wasn't just impressive; it was inspiring. What struck me most was Andrea's emotional intelligence and natural leadership. She wasn't just checking off a list--she was reading the room, checking in on vendors, comforting the family, and still had the foresight to ensure every beat of the evening landed with intention. For us as DJs, a successful event relies heavily on the planner's clarity, timing, and communication. Andrea excelled at all three. Her cues were crystal clear, her flexibility never compromised the bigger picture, and her collaboration felt seamless. It's rare to find someone who can hold both the creative and logistical sides of event production in perfect harmony. Andrea is that rare gem. And beyond the work, there's a real human connection there--a warmth that draws people in, makes vendors want to go above and beyond, and creates the kind of synergy that guests can feel, even if they don't see it. After this event, I'm not only grateful--I'm inspired. I genuinely hope to work with Andrea and Mia Emma Love Events more in the future. I believe that if we continue to collaborate, we could create experiences that are unforgettable, meaningful, and consistently next-level. Andrea, thank you for the trust, the kindness, the professionalism, and for being exactly the kind of event partner every creative hopes for. I'm honored to have been a part of this one--and I'm already looking forward to the next. With deep appreciation, DJ Brandon Beach
