The owner of this company, Elizabeth Martin, texted me - which is how she communicates - confirming…read moreshe had booked me as a face-painter for Oct. 31 event on Sept. 23. She usually texts the location address with other relevant info a few days prior event. I needed to check the distance between that event and other potential events I might be hired for on Oct.31, so I asked her yesterday, Oct.15, for said address. She replied that "there must have been a mix up" as she had booked another artist. She didn't even inform me she had replaced me! Nor why. I texted her own confirmation that she has me booked. Zero explanation. Fyi, she promised with text (as usual) to pay me $30 for travel to another event a few months ago. She didn't. I had to remind her twice with own own text messages within a several weeks until she finally sent me that money. Lastly, at one point in our relationship she bragged proudly how she is a Christian. In the context of being honest. I wish she hadn't. Hence, beware of this unprofessional, virtue signaling hypocrite.

From the moment he arrived, he put his heart and soul into entertaining the kids -- and they loved every second of it. You could really tell he cares about what he does.

I will 100% be recommending Blippi to all my friends and family, and I'll definitely be using him again for future parties. Thank you for making my son's birthday so special!

I'm not the best at party planning so she was really helpful at suggesting when would be best to do face painting, the bubble performance and when to play games.

The booking process with Marina was great, very clear. I would totally book her again and will be recommending this company to my friends.

From the very first inquiry to the follow-up message when your event is done, Kalinda and team will meet your every question attentively and promptly, and create a magical experience for all involved. Every character is a real-life princess and is so deeply caring with the lore and background and behavior of the world(s) they inhabit. I have been to and hosted many a Wishing Well party and I am always blown away - it truly feels like you have these characters come to life straight out of the stories and movies. Oh! And the insanely beautiful voices and dancing?? It's unreal. We most recently hosted a birthday party with Moana and when she started singing to the children the entire party went silent...the adults thought at first that she was lip-syncing to a recording and then quickly became convinced that we had worked some magic to have Moana pop right out of DIsney+ and into our lives. It was amazing. Wishing Well is amazing. On top of the mind-blowing, crowd-pleasing characters come to life, Kalinda also is sure to make sure that every possible detail is communicated and taken care (since we all know that things can fall through the cracks with the million things going on in life and party planning...)! I have always felt so taken care of and know that when Wishing Well is involved, it's going to be a magical day for everyone.

We were all honestly in awe of her, just the most perfect Elsa we could have ever hoped for. My daughter is insanely particular and notices every single detail, so a part of me was afraid she'd think whoever came was most certainly not her true Elsa. But WOW Stephanie sold that Elsa magic so well--from the outfit to the makeup to her poise to her amazing singing voice. The joy my little girl felt all throughout her party and into today will be something our family will remember probably forever. Stephanie made her feel SO special, gave her such amazing care and attention, but also handled the other kiddos so beautifully. At least half the parents there begged me for the contact information for how we booked her. Thank you Stephanie for your professionalism, promptness, and everything you delivered on yesterday. We'll never forget it. Not to mention, Kalinda was very attentive through email during the booking process, and even while away in another country on vacation, she handled a last-minute performer swap wonderfully due to an emergency. She stayed in touched and made sure we were taken care of. 5-stars all the way.

They are truly incredible and made it so much more special. From the very beginning, by being punctual, to staying in character the whole time and literally commending the entire party with so much grace and fun! Incredible and talented actresses in everything they did: singing, make up, speaking, storytelling and PATIENCE. All the kids participated and felt seen by the princesses, and we had a lot of kids. We'll definitely keep them in mind for future parties and recommend to our friends. Not to mention that they were available last minute 3 days before our party, on a holiday, which was on Mother's Day. Memories our daughter is going to remember forever. Thank you Katy, Savannah and the Crystal Castle Entertainment team.

I think you get what you paid for with Dreamcharacters. They are on the cheaper side compared to…read moreother companies nearby and I think that's why their characters are alright. I hired Spiderman for my son's birthday party and although Tony(the manager) was very professional, the person who was in the Spiderman costume was not the best. He lacks some charisma and some energy. He played all the games requested on the booking but I expected more when it came to the "superhero training." All he did for that was bring out a nerf gun and had the kids take a turn shooting. Mind you, there were around 25 kids so it took a while and the kids were getting antsy just waiting in line. For the "dance party" party, his speaker was small and you couldn't even really hear the music so I let him use our big speaker. Not a big deal but you would think they would be more prepared. I was offered to pay extra for a grand entrance and present for the birthday boy and I'm glad I didn't because my son was still given a present and it was a small paint kit from the dollar tree. Booking process was really easy, but overall the service from the characters was not the best. Manager responded promptly and though Spiderman was not the best in my opinion, he showed up on time which was also professional on their side.
