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!

[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.

He was responsive, helpful, and accommodated us despite the tight timeline. A huge shoutout to Andy, who did the bubble show and balloon twisting. He was absolutely fantastic! The kids were completely engaged from start to finish, laughing, smiling, and having so much fun. His energy, patience, and ability to keep a group of excited kids entertained were truly impressive. The balloon creations were a big hit, and the bubble show was magical. We received so many compliments from parents about how much their kids enjoyed the entertainment. If you're looking for someone to make your child's party memorable, I highly recommend Fun Cloud Events. Thank you, Aziz and Andy, for helping make my daughter's birthday so special!

We hired Fun Cloud Events for a kids' birthday party with nearly 20 children. We were shown a video…read morebefore booking that set a clear expectation for the energy and quality of the performance. Unfortunately, what was delivered was a lackluster performance that fell well short of that. Only a few kids showed interest and when kids started losing interest in the bubble activity, the performer made no effort to re-engage them. She stood in one spot the entire time and used barely 20% of the space that Fun Cloud Events themselves had marked out in a photo they sent us prior to the event. For a group that size, we expected a professional entertainer to read the room and adapt. That didn't happen. We'd caution others to ask detailed questions before booking and to clarify exactly what to expect, rather than relying on the promotional video shared during the sales process.

She parked farther and walked in on purpose so the kids wouldn't think she drove here which was a nice detail. She did story time and sang , magic tricks, a bunch of fun kid group games/activities with music on portable music device which she had technical difficulty which is understandable and perfectly fine so we helped with spotify on our cell phones. Please be on standby host parents to help carry character's belongings. For host parent, consider charging up your own Bluetooth music speaker to have ready as backup. We had food and games and she was so helpful too with gathering kids and singing happy birthday. She provided a tiara and special bracelet for the birthday girl which was perfect. All the kids and parents were so amazed and enchanted with the whole experience that parents sat and enjoyed and also filmed the experience. We had face painting and she had time for guests to take some pictures too. we loved how we could have a Disney princess come to our home. There's a small travel fee of course since we are outside of the normal area. Would highly recommend while your kids are young and still into characters. Ariel stayed in character and price point was good too. Thank you Cinderella company for helping our daughter's dreams come true.

Outstanding, professional, punctual -- and FUN!…read more All the kids at my daughter's birthday party had an absolute blast. The only "complaint" I have is that my daughter now wants a birthday party every weekend They truly created a memory for her that I'm sure will stay with her for a lifetime in the most positive way. It seems my daughter is now known at school for throwing awesome parties! I will definitely hire them again and highly recommend them for any kids' event. I was honestly anxious about entertaining a group of children in my cozy home, but they took a huge burden off my shoulders and made the entire experience stress-free.

The kids loved playing limbo, basketball, Velcro darts, parachute, tunnel, and more with Curious George! My only regret was not hiring her for more time to keep the party going! We hired her for 1.5 hours and the kids were entertained and engaged the whole time, giving the parents time to socialize and eat lunch. My son had the absolute time of his life. The delight on his face when Curious George came to his party and gave him hugs and held his hand to lead a parade of his friends! The cake cutting with Curious George was so much fun, and afterwards Curious George read one of our Curious George books to the party guests. Definitely going to hire Roxy for every party as long as my kids like characters. It is genuinely magical for the kids to have their favorite character hang out with them.

Even though the kids were pretty rowdy and full of energy, Skip handled everything with so much patience and creativity. I couldn't even keep them calm myself, but Skip managed to engage and contain the group perfectly. My daughter tends to get anxious when there's a lot of noise and movement, but Skip was so attentive and made sure she had her space and could still enjoy the show. It really meant a lot to me that my daughter felt comfortable enough to laugh, smile, and participate at her own pace. The face painting was beautiful, the show was fun and engaging, and there were plenty of giggles all around. Some of the adults could've done a better job respecting the show, but Skip stayed professional and kept things going smoothly. I truly appreciate that level of patience and skill. I'll definitely book again in the future,maybe something smaller next time with one or two of my daughter's friends so she can interact more. Overall, it was a great experience and I highly recommend Dream Top Entertainment!

If you're looking for a true Disney-quality experience, look no further!!!…read more Anna and Elsa completely exceeded every expectation we had for my daughter's 4th birthday. From the moment they arrived, they never broke character. Their mannerisms, voices, interactions, and warmth made everyone, children and adults alike, feel like the real princesses had stepped into our party. The children were absolutely captivated, and...so were the adults! Guests lined up for hugs and photos, and it was so fun watching everyone become just as starstruck as the kids. It genuinely felt like a little piece of Disneyland had come to us. Several guests even commented that they felt like they had walked into Disney. They were incredibly engaging throughout their visit, singing, dancing, laughing, and making every child feel special. Most importantly, they made my daughter feel like the center of their world. Watching her interact with them is a memory our family will cherish forever. What impressed me even more was their professionalism. They adapted effortlessly to our timeline, adjusted to changes on the fly, and worked seamlessly alongside the fairies. They complemented one another beautifully, creating one cohesive, magical experience for our guests. As the host, I was able to relax because they were so easy to work with. They were kind, flexible, polished, and incredibly talented. SO TALENTED! If you want your child to truly believe they've met Anna and Elsa, Characters by Joanna is the place to book. They didn't just entertain our guests, they created memories that our family and friends will be talking about for years. Thank you for making Sophie's birthday feel like a real fairytale. We couldn't have imagined it being any more magical.

Her voice was stunning, and she stayed completely in character the entire time. The girls were completely mesmerized. Watching their faces light up when she walked in was pure magic. She made Zoey feel so special and created the most unforgettable experience for all of the kids. She was hands down the highlight of the entire party.
