She is not only a talented face painter, her magic/comedy show just so funny! She made everyone's day!! She arrived on time. She started face painting for kids and even grownups who wanted one.

Thank you Budderball! You are amazing!

It's like what stores use to be, when someone took the time to understand what u are looking for, actually have knowledge, and really just want to help you. The prices were great, the selection was far more than i could have ever expected, just wow all over the place. For real, check this place out, it's a long time locally owned, family run true SF shop. A long lost breed that us locals need to help preserve (in my humble opinion).

What an amazing experience with the Cinderella Company for my daughter's 3rd birthday party this…read morepast August at the park in Milpitas. My daughter's 3rd birthday was Disney Princess Theme and I was looking throughout the Bay Area to hire a Snow White Princess to hire and surprise her and the guest. I was able to book our character and through Cinderella Company. Initially the person in charge was out of town while I was inquiring but communicated the whole time with me. They ensured that the Snow White that was coming fit the needs of my party. I chose the 2.5 hour package so that it will entertain the many kids coming. Snow White called me two days before the event to finalize the location and what will happen at the day of the party. I was so impressed from the time she arrived to the very end. She stayed in character the whole time and my daughter was in awe that Snow White was at her party celebrating her 3rd birthday. The adults also loved Snow White she looked liked she can from Disneyland. Snow White read a story with the kids first, did some singing and dancing, played with bubbles, did face painting and sang happy birthday, took pictures with everyone. She did such a good job entertaining the kids at the party. She even played with them while they wondered in and out of the jumper we had. We also gave Snow White a microphone during the party so that everyone can hear her. If you are looking to hire a character you should go through Cinderella Company.!Pricing wasn't bad, communicated well through the whole process! We were so impressed with our Snow White and loved every second of having her and making our youngest daughter's birthday that more magical and fun that day! We will definitely use and refer them to my friends!

They never showed up for my son's birthday. It wasn't until I called her -- and she didn't answer,…read morebut texted back and said she was at an event -- that she realized she had already charged me. At first she asked who I even was so I sent her the confirmation of payment and then after that she blamed me and said she didn't remember speaking with me and asked when I requested the service as the schedule was made before my order was put in, yet I had all the receipts showing it should have been put in the schedule. Very flighty and disappointing service, especially when kids are involved, as they were told a face painter was coming. All the parents at the party were shocked. Would never recommend. She's good at giving a refund, but that is about it. Response to below: I spoke to you on the phone on Tuesday before the event on Saturday morning: didn't realize I, as the CUSTOMER, had to reach back out AGAIN and confirm with you, the PROFESSIONAL/BUSINESSPERSON, before the event. Another way to blame the customer.

Thanks Rosella for making it memorable.

The company was also clear and communicative when booking her for the party and asked good questions for the best chance of the birthday kiddo and friends to warm up to our entertainer quickly. We had an age span of 1-8ish years, about 15 kids total. All the kids were engaged and enjoyed the magic show, games, and balloon animals or face glitter. Pricing was reasonable and gave us all something to chat about and enjoy, so it wasn't just a bunch of toddlers running around getting hopped up on sugar with overtired parents. She didn't need a huge amount of space. We utilized the living room and that was sufficient for all the activities. We have a dog and she was comfortable working around him as well. I'd definitely recommend Happily Ever Laughter if you're interested in a magician/entertainer/balloon artist for a party.

We enjoyed the pony Rose. She had an amazing temperament. All the kids were excited to see and ride Rose. I highly recommend them for your child's party!! The owner, Catherine was wonderful. She worked with me to come up with a package that fit my budget and daughter's party wish. They take PayPal, cash or check. I have two pieces of feedback. First, I would recommend is having a cancellation policy or two way contract to ensure customer and owner are protected. For example, if the pony is sick and can't show or the customer cancels last minute, it's nice to have something like that in place. Second, I would have costs listed on the website for different options with descriptions of the package. We will be using them again for my neice's party!
