History
Established in 1988.
Party Fair has served the Manahawkin community since 1988, helping generations of families, businesses, schools, and organizations celebrate special occasions. Over the years, the store grew from a neighborhood source for party basics into a complete celebration destination for Manahawkin, Long Beach Island, and Jersey Shore communities.
As customers’ needs changed, Party Fair expanded its selection to include tableware, decorations, costumes, seasonal merchandise, favors, gift bags, candles, cake toppers, and thousands of supplies for birthdays, graduations, baby showers, weddings, holidays, school functions, and community events. Balloons also became a specialty, with latex & foil designs, bouquets, number balloons, centerpieces, and custom arrangements.
Now located in Manahawkin Plaza, Party Fair continues the tradition of pairing a broad selection with experienced service. After three decades, the goal remains the same: make every celebration easier, brighter, and more memorable.
Meet the Business Owner: Jason D.
As the owner of Party Fair, I’m proud to continue a local tradition that has served the Manahawkin community since 1988. Celebrations bring people together, and I enjoy helping customers find the balloons, decorations, colors, and details that make each occasion personal.
My goal is to offer the selection of a large party store with the friendly attention of a neighborhood business. Our experienced team listens, answers questions, coordinates themes, and helps customers choose products that fit their event, vision, and budget. From a single birthday balloon to custom centerpieces and supplies for a complete celebration, every order matters to us.
It is especially rewarding to serve families year after year and help mark birthdays, graduations, weddings, baby showers, holidays, school events, and community milestones. I’m grateful for the support of Manahawkin, Long Beach Island, and our Jersey Shore communities, and I look forward to helping make your next celebration more memorable.
