The little pigs are so cute

Booked this petting zoo weekend activity at a nursing home today Sunday. Sarah and Jose are the best they came on time set up quick and they were friendly with the seniors & staff. Sarah was so sweet telling us all the pet names. She cleaned up after the animals. The whole two hours the animals were interacting and you can feed them which is such a cute and fun thing to do. The animals are well kept clean and it doesn't smell like a barn. We had a great time and we would definitely recommend booking them. Also they respond quick and overall great team!

John was friendly and patient with me in getting me set up for the petting zoo. He was very responsive and even accommodated my request for a piglet the last minute. He showed up half hr before the scheduled time to set up. The animals were sooooo utterly cute and clean. The petting zoo was a big hit at my daughter's 9th birthday party and John made it happen for me. He was patient with the kids, and the kids were ecstatic and had a blast! If you're looking for a petting zoo to wow your party, I recommend them! Will definitely book again!

This review is long overdue! Marshmallow and Kezz helped make my daughter's 4th birthday party so special! We were throwing a Bluey themed birthday party and had to have "Buttermilk" there (from the Markets episode). It was a blast!! All the kids loved having rides around the backyard and we got to take some amazing pictures!! If anyone is considering a pony / animal party.... As the host, be aware of heat and cold conditions.... Be sure to ask what their animals need and provide enough shade and water for the animals. We got a bale of alfalfa from the local feed store and donated it to Marshmallow when it was time for him to go. The hay was cool because the kids fed him a little bit and gave us a place for people to sit for pictures. The whole day was amazing! Thank you Kezz and Marshmallow for a memorable party!

We love these guys so much that we've had TWO parties with them! The first one was my daughter's 3rd birthday and our second one was my son's 7th. They are punctual, nice, and the animals are so cute and happy! One of our favorite parts was the chicken who liked to sit on the pot belly pig. Such wonderful memories for our kids!!

If you're a parent looking at options- this one is amazing bc they 1) take a reservation deposit so you're sure it's confirmed 2) bring their own tent for shade 3) bring food for the animals 4) kids are allowed to hold bunnies and feed animals. Not all companies do this! Fiar pricing. Prompt. Animals seem healthy and happy. Easy decision- we'd hire again!

The owner and his assistant was very nice. I hired them for our 3 year old toddler's birthday party. They arrived on time and placed the animals. The animals were friendly, clean and so adorable. The communication was excellent throughout the entire process. I'm happy that I found them.

Some of the beautiful cute animals from PonyParty4Kids!

Phenomenal customer service, great selection of animals and John, the owner was punctual and kind with the children. We will definitely be hiring PonyParty4Kids again!!! Thanks John

Loved the bunnies

We loved our petting zoo experience! Baconator the pig was a great hit! Super friendly and communicative. The bunnies were so soft and cuddly Will definitely do it again and get a pony next time.

Amazing!! Best mobile petting zoo, I'm so thankful I found this place. The animals were adorable, the booking was easy, great price and they even arrived earlier to set up and brought a fence and canopy in case of rain. The staff was very nice and the kids loved it. Thank you for making my son's birthday extra special! I can't wait to use this company again.

The email I sent to the owner regarding the incident.

TWO bunnies died during the party. One appeared to be sat on and injured by the pig. This bunny was not removed and ended up dying, most likely from overheating. The second bunny tried to escape (probably as it knew it was going to die from heat stroke), got its head stuck in the fence, then injured itself trying to get out. The bunny screamed very loudly and some of the guests were very upset. The younger attendant was super friendly and truly seemed to care about the animals. He was constantly trying to cool down the animals and keep them comfortable. I'm not sure why they didn't have a canopy or anything for shade. If it wasn't for the two dead bunnies, one of which we had to sit and literally watch die, this would have been a fantastic experience. The attendants commented that they have hundreds of bunnies at the farm. Clearly, two dead bunnies means nothing to this company. With so many traveling petting zoos available for about the same price, I'd seriously recommend going elsewhere until the owner demonstrates he understands how to care for his animals.

We had many changes throughout out party planning process which I felt really bad for but Lisa and her team were so easy to communicate with!

From start to finish they were incredibly easy to communicate with- responsive, attentive, and truly listened to what I wanted. Lisa and her team brought my vision to life, and it was even better than I imagined. What really stood out was their willingness to work within our budget without compromising on quality or creativity. They not only designed and set up all the balloons, backdrops, installations but they also spent extra time helping me decorate and design the farmers market with the custom gifts I made and/or purchased for my guests. The entire process felt stress-free and enjoyable. Everything turned out beautifully and we received so many compliments. I am truly honored to be The Simple Luxe's first farmers market themed client and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and kind vendor who goes above and beyond. If you have been following them on social media like I was and have an upcoming event - reach out to them and get a quote! You will not be disappointed!

I try to observe how they work with their employees and other vendors rather than watch the reaction from clients. I always think happy employees lead to very happy customers. In this case every team member worked well together even in the stress of the event as their was a definite time crunch because of strict venue rules. Everyone was supportive of each other and the results were supreme attention to detail and ecstatic customer/guest reaction. These guys worked very closely with us to ensure a smooth event and I could see that translated into how well the client was treated. Excellent service from beginning to end.

Being that our company name is called Gatsby Chocolate, I thought it would be perfect to have a Gatsby-themed party, and Unforgettable Events completely delivered. Every single detail from our logo being projected onto the floor, to our logo on the bar, to our personalized name plates, was absolutely exquisite. Tashianna and her team are SO detail-oriented, and that's something I truly appreciate. They thought of everything. The entire event looked so gorgeous. The color palette was exactly what I was imagining, and everything exceeded my expectations. Working with Tashianna was SO easy. She was super communicative, and if a problem arose, she handled it gracefully. She kept me calm/sane during the whole process. Originally, I was supposed to plan this holiday party by myself, but a couple weeks into it, I realized I needed professional party-planning help, so that's when we hired Unforgettable Events. Tashianna picked up right where I left off, and alleviated so much stress. She communicated with all the vendors, had a schedule for the day of, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We truly couldn't have pulled this off without her and her team. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and I would hire her again in a heartbeat. She worked with our budget and found budget-friendly solutions that still looked high-end and luxurious. If you're thinking about hiring Unforgettable Events for a special event, just DO IT. You won't regret it. They're truly amazing, and your event really will be unforgettable.

Horrible experience, stay away!…read more This is a review for Eliza at BEL Events for her wedding planning services. We met Eliza at our venue 8 month before our wedding date. During the first session she presented herself well, and she talked and bragged a lot about her 18 yrs of experience in event planning and stories about how she handles wedding situations. So, we thought she is the right event planner for us and signed a contract. After signing the contract and making the payment, she was very hard to find and we did not see the expected action from her side, and every time we followed up, her response was: "don't worry I will manage everything before the wedding day". We were asking for the basics of planning such as timeline, vendor recommendations (a few to choose from) and communications (which was part of the contract) but not no action except a quote of her own rental service. We were getting closer to the wedding date and her lack of action made us so worried and very frustrated. Eventually we had to get involved and did almost 90% of the work ourselves. She was very hard to find but even when we could talk to her, she would create more unnecessary problems to an extant that my wife had panic attacks after a few meetings we had with her. 2 month before our wedding she caused so much anxiety and frustration that we decided to end our contract with her and find another planner. Thankfully, our new planner was amazing and our Wedding planning went very smooth after that, and the event was as wonderful as we could imagine! With way lower cost than what Eliza had proposed! After I requested to cancel the contract she disappeared and never responded to our emails, which is very unprofessional. Here is a list of a few issues from our experience of working with here: 1- Accessibility: every time we had a question or needed to talk to her, it was taking several days until she gets back to us. With irrelevant excuses, like she would show me her busy google calendar! 2- Push to use her own services as vendors: Per her contract she had to suggest different vendors so we can choose. But since she has rental and flower services, she was arguing so much to stop us from even looking at other options! She charges unnecessarily expensive! By doing a little research, we found our vendors and saved at least 50% with same or better quality! 3- Nonsense arguments and rude attitude: In many occasions she was just insisting on holding the event the way SHE wants, without paying attention to our request or desire. Every time we requested something, her answer was: "I don't want MY event to be that way or I don't want MY guests to be that way"!!! With a condescending attitude emphasizing that "I have 18 yrs of experience and I know what to do"!!! Any simple request would become a long story and unnecessary argument. In one occasion my wife requested that guests throw flower petals while walking out of aisle, and she immediately said: "No!, you can't do that, I don't want my cleaning crew spend time on cleaning the petals"!!!! In another occasion Eliza was insisting on only using her recommended valet service (which was quoting more than double the price of the service we eventually used) and on top of it she was forcing us to rent extra parking lot out of venue and pay extra for shuttle service!!!! While the venue had enough capacity! And when I respectfully said: I am confident that the venue has enough capacity for parking, she got very angry and said: "in that case tell all your guests to use UBER and they can't drive their own car"!!! It was a nightmare working with BEL Events and I don't recommend her service due to lack of professionalism and decency in her business.

I contacted this rental company based a recommendation from my fiance's cousin since they used this…read morecompany for my sister-in-law's wedding. We needed to rent tables, chairs, and 2 different size pipe & drapes for our tea ceremony. I called the company on July 12 because their website was a little confusing. I didn't know where to write what size pipe and drape we wanted. The person who answered the phone just said "Hello?" so I wasn't sure if I was calling the right place at first. I asked if it was One Call Events, and they said yes. I asked my question, and they told me to request a quote via email. I wrote out and sent the email to them immediately after I hung up with them. I provided links to the items I wanted to rent along with how many of each, as well as measurements for the pipe & drapes I wanted. I also provided the date of delivery, date of the event, and date of pickup. I didn't hear back, so I called them one week later on July 19. The woman who answered said she had read my email and would reply with a quote in the next one to two days. I waited, and still no reply. I finally sent another email on July 24 to follow up on my quote request. I received a reply back exactly 30 minutes later asking for the delivery/pickup dates that I needed (I had included it in the original email) and if we needed linens as well. I wrote back to let them know the delivery/pickup dates and that we do not need linens. I did receive a response to my email. I finally called once again on 7/26 and spoke to a woman who remembered my name and my email, and she pulled it up while I was on the phone. She told me that they were out of the white chiavari chairs and only had gold & clear left. I said clear chairs. Shortly after I finally received the quote. It only took 2 weeks, 3 phone calls, and 2 emails. I might have gone with this rental company, however based on how unprofessional they were when I was only requesting a quote, I took my business elsewhere. How can I trust them to actually show up and deliver the rented items if they can't even get me a quote without me calling and emailing them multiple times? The company I went with literally responded the very next day after I requested a quote, and even called me beforehand to double check some of the details regarding the dimensions of the pipe & drapes. Not only that, they had the chairs I wanted: SILVER chiavari chairs!! I didn't want white, I only settled because One Call Events doesn't carry silver. AND the other company is cheaper by about $258. Bottom line, DON'T GO WITH ONE CALL EVENTS!!

Do you want stress, anxiety, and frustration? Then this is the company for you. Very BAD…read moreCOMMUNICATION! And will send DIRTY/missing items. When you hire a company for an event as important as a wedding, you expect the absolute best from your vendors. To clarify, the only reason I gave 2 stars instead of 1 is because yes the set up was beautiful and we had no problem with the guys that came to physically put up the rental tents. They were great, they worked really hard, this is not about them. This is specifically towards Darlene, the company coordinator/manager/owner. Darlene was quick to respond when it came to taking your money. But after the payment was made, she went MIA. She wouldn't answer several calls and texts for days. "Sorry we are really busy", no that's no excuse to not be available to a paid client especially when there are issues/questions. The day before the event, instead of showing face and apologizing for the bad communication she sends her young attitude-filled teenage daughter instead to coordinate the guys setting up. We paid for the tents with fabric, wedding chairs, table runners etc and guess what? The wedding chair cushions were DIRTY. I bring this to the attention of Darlene's daughter and she very dismissively says, "I'll bring some more tomorrow". Fine, as long as they are replaced. Darlene's daughter leaves before the set up is complete, and we realize that they did not bring the table runners. We call and text Miss teenage attitude, no answer. The set up guys claim "maybe this fabric left behind is supposed to be the table runner", but after inspecting it we realize the dirty and torn fabric is actually for the tents not the tables. Again, tried to contact Darlene to advise her that our items are missing. No answer. She finally calls the day of the wedding and claims the fabric is the table runner. No it isn't! The fabric was clearly for the tents not the tables. And she says they will not be coming back to replace the dirty seat cushions. SO UNPROFESSIONAL! She did reimburse for the missing/dirty items but that doesn't change the fact that the items were delivered like that, terrible service and that the communication was almost zero. You can imagine how this made the bride feel on her big day. I do NOT recommend this company, they will give you a headache, stress, anxiety over bad communication and deliver dirty items.. or just not deliver some items altogether! Do yourself a favor, go somewhere else.
