    I submitted a request through Yelp to find face painters and David responded quickly. The…read moreinformation and additional services sealed the deal. Upon arrival, set up was easy, prepared, and early. Super friendly service offered but even better was the face painting! The art on faces was so good and was completed in an efficient time to move multiple people for the large event. I would highly recommend this company and support this local business.

    I would not recommend Magic by David based on my experience…read more When I first spoke with him about a month before the event, he quoted $300 for the magic show and mentioned an additional $75 for balloon twisting and face painting. I confirmed the $300 and told him I would decide later about the add-ons. He also asked for a $27 booking fee, assuring me that it would be deducted from the total amount. About three weeks later, I called to inform him that I did not want the add-ons. He insisted that I must take them, saying that his assistant would be present for the entire duration and that the package could not be changed. Since the difference was $75, I agreed. He mentioned that with taxes, the total would be $396,--which he had never mentioned before that their will be tax--and requested that payment be made in cash, Cash App or via Venmo, which I found unusual. On the day of the birthday party, as soon as he arrived, he demanded $396 before bringing in his setup. I reminded him that I had already paid a $27 booking fee, but he refused to deduct it, saying that the Booking fee was separate. I ended up paying the full $396 anyway. He had promised a one-hour interactive show to keep all the kids engaged. However, the magic show lasted only about 40 minutes, and the face painter stopped after 30 minutes, leaving several kids disappointed. Altogether, the entire performance was over in less than 40 minutes, far short of what was promised.I've attended several other birthday parties with magicians, and they always allowed all the kids to touch the animals. However, this magician only let the birthday girl and her sister touch the animals, which made other kids unhappy. Additionally, I noticed unprofessional behavior. The tissue roll I had refilled in the morning went missing, and I later saw it with the magician. After the event, it vanished (the magician took it away with him). He was also seen peeking into the children's gifts, even holding one of the return gifts and curiously looking inside, which made me uncomfortable. Overall, this experience was very disappointing. The service was unprofessional, misleading, and not worth the amount charged. I would strongly advise others not to hire Magic by David for their events.

    Amazing!!! My friends surprised me with a balloon creation for my quarantined birthday! If you are…read morelooking for something different to make birthdays special during the pandemic I highly recommend reaching out to Zoe! The balloon creation she made was beautiful!!! Every time I walk by it, it makes me smile, and my son loves staring at it too. I spied them creating it out on the street before it was totally ready and Zoe was putting a ton of work into making it perfect. Both her and her partner wore masks and safely deposited the creation into my living room. It truly is a birthday surprise I'll never forget!! Highly recommend checking her out to make birthdays special now while we can't really leave the house and down the line when we can have parties again. It would be a showstopper for party decor!!

    A miracle worker!! I contacted Zoe because my friends and I wanted to create a spectacular…read morebirthday balloon presentation for our other friend for her birthday. We initially contacted another company first (based upon using them for a different birthday presentation in the past). However, that company did not respond to the calls, emails, and forms that we filled out in advance. This ultimately put us in a tough spot with little time to spare before our friend's actual birthday!! I quickly did some research and luckily came across Zoe the Clown online. I gave her a call on Friday afternoon at around 4pm. She couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. After I called with the description and budget we had in mind-- she got right to work on the details. She called and texted with me throughout Friday night to get the order in place that we needed. This ultimately enabled us to get the balloons delivered in time and for her to create the balloon masterpiece of our dreams. Throughout the weekend Zoe was in constant contact with me regarding the progress of the delivery and vision. Finally it was go time on Tuesday (the birthday)! Zoe met me promptly at the time we scheduled to meet outside my friend's house. She showed up professionally with safety precautions in mind during COVID (with a mask), etc. She took some time to put the final touches on the balloon creation once she got to the house because the display was too big to fit as one piece during its transport. After it was completed, we called my friend to come out, and she was blown away!! Also, Zoe and her partner helped to bring the display into my friend's house-- which was a big help!!! From start to finish it was a pleasure to work with Zoe and her team. They were efficient, helpful, and ultimately a lifesaver under such quick turn around time expectations. I am still getting calls and texts from people who saw the pictures asking who created the masterpiece. If you are looking for a special balloon presentation for a friend or loved one-- definitely give Zoe a call! You won't regret it!
