I planned my…read morehusband a surprise birthday party while I was traveling internationally and Mark was really helpful. He was very communicative--even with the 13 hour time difference, I was able to coordinate with him easily. I had my husband be taken out of the house three hours before the party to set up... the balloon arch was delivered right on time. The photographer showed up half an hour earlier than the party. The magician I wanted to hire was booked somewhere else and I only found out a few days before, but the balloon sculpture artist Mark recommended instead was an absolute hit with the kids as well as the adults, which was a pleasant surprise. He made my husband the most outrageous birthday hat. Right when he was supposed to be done, one of the kids tripped and popped his balloons and got upset, and he stayed longer to make him (and a few other stragglers) more balloons. Truly kind. The photographer David was also really so helpful, friendly, and on it! He came early and helped with some of the set up... he was attentive and also very nice to talk to. Very natural (sometimes it's awkward when a photographer's in your face taking pictures but it wasn't awkward at all). We got a USB full of pictures right after the party! Really, what a great experience. My husband had a really great time. Thank you Mark and company!

Almost everyone at the party told me how much they loved the balloons. A great experience from start to finish!

This location and ambiance…read moreare perfect, making it a great spot for a girl's night, date night, birthday celebration , or just to vibe out on your own. You really don't need to come with anyone to have a good time here. Trust me. We booked a 3 p.m. session online, and it was a 10/10 experience. Our instructor, Dalton, was full of energy, super friendly, funny and explained everything perfectly, making the painting process enjoyable! He also played music throughout the class, and his playlist was a hit! It really set the mood and made the experience even more fun. One of the best parts? You can bring your own food, drinks, and even wine! They provide wine glasses, plates, and cups for convenience, and if you forget something to drink, they sell sodas in the back. Plus, there's a store directly across the street where you can purchase a bottle of wine if that's your thing. The class lasted a little over two hours, giving us plenty of time to enjoy and create. Parking on a Sunday was easy with plenty of street parking, but I can see it getting busier during peak hours. Overall, Pinot's Palette is more than just a painting class--it's a whole experience! Even if you think you can't paint or draw, trust me, you can. Just go for it!

We did a weekend evening class, had assigned seats with our group, and were able to BYO whatever we wanted to drink (and they provided the wine glasses!). The class was fun, and set to some fun music, and the instruction (while fast paced) still offered opportunities to ask questions and seek help. Would recommend!

The business owner sent me a contract and to confirm the date, I paid a deposit. The day of the party, 2 super friendly young women arrived with party equipment they set up then asked for my permission to begin. They had the children play so many games right after each other including ones with a parachute and a toilet paper blower (yay!) that my kids slept like logs that evening. They also sculpted balloon animals for each child and provided T-shirts for the celebrants. A lot of the guests said it was the best party ever. Come on Barbie, let's go party! =) NOTES/TIPS: **They require power for a couple of items.They leave zero mess. **I actually recommend hiring them for more than one hour.

Fantastic event at YCI!…read more I had a great experience at YCI! My sister recently held her wedding here, and it was obvious from the moment we were greeted by Dee that we were in expert hands. The space is large and convenient, but the real highlight was the hospitality. Parking: It can be a little tough since there isn't a dedicated lot right at the door, but there is one within a short walking distance. I highly recommend YCI to anyone looking to host an event in NJ. I'll definitely be back!

Deeja was my day of coordinator and was extremely helpful. She helped me with everything I needed and was so kind. She even rearranged food into different pans just so all the food would fit well. I was able to really enjoy the day, with her there. You can't go wrong hiring this company. I know I will look to hire them for all my future parties.
