Kai M.

I am disappointed in this company and here are 2 primary reasons why: 1- After a long online search to find a good quality business to rent my cousin's baby shower chair, I stumbled onto this company. Having found no real threatening reviews, I decided to place the order. Here is when I knew something would be wrong. Minutes after the order was placed, my bank notified me that the funds were received by the company. I waited for a follow-up email containing a pick up time or confirmation of some sort and received none. Assuming that the funds may take a few hours to clear on the company's end, 2 days would follow and still no email. I decided to finally call and the woman on the phone informed me that she did not see any order which immediately caused me to worry. After being placed on a long hold, she returned and informed me that she found the order and that it would be ready for pickup on the day selected, between 1pm-6pm. Mark this time as I go into point #2 2- The day of the event came and my Aunt arrived at the shop between the hours provided, more specifically, at 4:15pm (after 1pm and before 6pm) Guess what? The person at the business location proceeded to inform my Aunt that she did not have a chair ready for her, because they "forgot" to which my aunt frantically called me. After a back and forth conversation, my aunt was informed to wait and they would start the order. Over 15 minutes would pass and they provided her with a chair that was not only of poor quality but not the color I paid extra money for...the problems that occurs with rushing. My aunt decided that for the safety of the expecting mother, she could not take the chair. This left us without a chair for the shower and a very sad first time mom whose memory of her shower would be the story my aunt told before apologizing for us not looking further into this company. Closing point of this post, do not engage in business with this company unless you are able to go in and see their work of previous jobs and you enjoy staying on a company's back to remind them about the service they promised, which you paid for. I generally dislike putting businesses out there but this was highly unacceptable and beyond their apology. Image attached, please zoom into the base to see an example of quality. In person, it was describe as even worst.

We used The Brat Shack for balloons for my daughter's bridal shower and it was perfect. They were pleasant to work with when placing the order, arrived promptly at the venue, and their balloons made the event!

I used The Brat Shack several times but my 30th birthday party prompted me to write this review! I walked into the store with a budget and a vision and they made it happen! All i knew was that i wanted a brunch and some colors that i liked. They gave me suggestions and put together a FABULOUS package within my budget. I got a gold royalty chair, dessert table, a personalized set and repeat, balloon centerpieces and decor. They even let me add a card mailbox rental last min. The day of the event and I showed up and everything was Amazing me as well as all of my guest were so impressed ( as usual, when i use them.) Just wanted to thank the Brat Shack for making my day so memorable.

We used the Brat Shack for my daughter's birthday last year. Just recently realized I never wrote a review and I strongly feel they deserve one! They were awesome!!!! The dessert table turned out fabulous and many of our guests ranted and raved on how great the candy and desserts looked and tasted!!! They went above and beyond to stick with the theme and colors I wanted without compromising on taste at a very fair price! The chocolate and desserts were fresh and delicious. The girls were sweet and friendly and arrived on time to set up the table prior to the party and afterwards to take down the decorations. I highly recommend the Brat Shack and look forward to using them for future events

This is my 2nd time using this vendor for two of my events that I threw baby shower & 50th birthday party both times the excelled the exceptional service considering both events were last minute I was greeted politely & professional by staff members who was knowledgeable on my vision they showed me various different ideas to choose from & the different themes. The delivery service was prompt & they set up everything to my liking & pickup service was also provided all for a small fee I will definitely be doing business with you guys in the near future & I enclosed

I just wanted to thank ALL of the people at The Brat Shack who succeeded in making a momentous occasion even more special.  Your extensive catalog of pictures drew me in from the beginning.  Even more refreshing was your level of professionalism, coordination, attention to detail, and overall customer service that made me feel blessed to have worked with you all.  Don't hesitate to book The brat Shack for your special event if you have a lot of ideas to work with.   They'll help you bring them to life.  MUCHO THANKS!!!

Shoes in a balloon

The Brat Shack is a great company to do business with. The staff were very friendly and courteous. From the beautiful chair rental to the shoes in the ballon - those two elements alone put my daughter's sweet sixteen party on the map! I would definitely use their services for my next event! We were completely satisfied. R. Colon,Lynbrook, NY

The facilities are clean and the play area is well setup for parents to enjoy a cup of coffee without worrying about the kids. Parking lot outside the door is super helpful. Haven't had a chance to experience the special events but I know there are plenty catered to all families. If my kids weren't growing out of their toddler years, we would still be visiting.

I hosted my son's 5th birthday party at The Children's Social Club on Saturday and could not have been more disappointed. I purchased the Soirée party package, which included all of the bells and whistles and was intended to provide a seamless experience where my family and I simply needed to show up and enjoy the celebration. Unfortunately, that was the complete opposite of what we experienced. My party was scheduled to begin at 5:00 PM, and when I arrived at 4:50 PM, setup was still incomplete. Jacqui, the party planner/manager, was frantically trying to finish the balloon garland, the children's table was not set, and the overall décor was unfinished. My photographer intentionally arrived early to capture photos of the decor before guests arrived, but he was unable to do so because the décor was not completed until approximately 5:30 PM. Guests began arriving promptly at 5:00 PM and were met with staff scrambling to finish setup, including assembling the dessert table that should have already been completed. Rather than apologizing for the delay, Jacqui became defensive and repeatedly told my husband and I that she had planned "million-dollar events" so a party of this size was a piece of cake. She also blamed the party scheduled before ours, stating that they stayed longer than expected and delayed setup for our event. Regardless of the reason, the lack of preparedness was completely unacceptable. To make matters worse, there was also a significant delay with the adult food service. Jacqui immediately blamed the owner for not correctly placing the order and then left in a frantic state to purchase additional food from the restaurant. As a result, my guests did not eat until after 6:30 PM, which was actually when the children were supposed to eat. The owner ultimately extended my party by 30 minutes to accommodate the delay with the food and the fact that the children still had not eaten by 6:30 PM. However, Jacqui presented the extension as though they were doing us a favor, despite the circumstances being entirely caused by poor planning and execution on their end. To add to the frustration, we then felt rushed through key moments of the party, including singing Happy Birthday, cake cutting, and taking photos. One of my guests even commented on the poor level of service, noting that Jacqui appeared visibly overwhelmed and in need of additional support. I have never experienced this level of disorganization and lack of service while hosting an event. Instead of enjoying time with my guests and celebrating my son, I spent much of the evening managing issues related to décor, setup, and food delays. This was not the seamless, stress-free experience that was promised or expected, and it was incredibly disappointing.

I rented from Dream Events for a company BBQ and other than the fiasco with the photobooth, they were fantastic. Matt was the Supervisor for our event and he made sure everything was set up nicely. We had carnival booths, a large circus themed bounce house and a HUGE obstacle course that really made the party fun. Unfortunely, I also rented a photobooth and we were told Dream Events contracted the booth from another company that they couldn't get in contact with and they never showed up. Cindy from Dream Events mentioned I will be getting a refund, at which time I will update the stars on my review.

The owner is unprofessional and dodged our calls for over a month. We rented a photobooth and were given a broken machine. The attendant had to keep stopping to fix it in the middle of our party..how embarrassing! In addition we never received a flash drive with copies of the photos like we were told we would. The last conversation I had trying to get the photos, the owner told me he should of hung up on me! This is how they run a business? He had no problem cashing my check but when it came to providing the service we paid for, there was an issue. It's very upsetting not having photos of your wedding day.
