Booking & Planning
How far in advance should I book?

For weekend dates, 2-4 weeks in advance is ideal. Saturdays in spring and early summer fill up fastest. That said, we do take last-minute calls when our schedule allows — give us a ring and we'll let you know.

How do I book?

One phone call. Call us at (732) 672-1147 and we'll talk through your date, location, ages, and the services that fit. Once we agree, we hold the date with a small deposit and send you everything in writing.

What does it cost?

Pricing depends on the services you choose, party length, location, and group size. Most parties fall in a typical local-entertainer range — call us with your details and we'll give you a straight quote on the spot. No long forms, no surprises.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes — a small deposit holds your date. We confirm everything in writing once the deposit is paid, and the balance is due on or before the party day.

At the party
How many children can I have at a one-hour party?

Anywhere from 5 to 17 children works well for a one-hour party. Larger groups? We can adjust the number of entertainers — call us and we'll figure out the right staffing.

What ages are your services for?

From toddlers to teens. Face painting and balloons are popular with the 3-10 set. Makeup, nail art, and DJ services lean tween-and-up. Costume characters work for the whole 3-12 range. Just tell us the ages on the call and we'll suggest the best fit.

Can I have my party at a restaurant?

Absolutely. We've done parties at restaurants, community centers, parks, places of worship, and private homes. As long as we can set up safely and there's room for the activity, we can be there.

Do you do evening parties?

Yes! Evening kids' parties, sweet 16s, sleepovers, adult birthdays, even baby showers — we're flexible with timing.

When do you arrive?

Our entertainer arrives 15-20 minutes before the party starts to set up. You don't need to lift a finger — we handle everything.

Areas & logistics
What areas do you serve?

All of New Jersey and Staten Island. If you're right at the NJ-NY border, just call and ask — chances are we cover you.

Is there a travel fee for far-away locations?

Travel within our core service area is included. For locations more than ~45 minutes from our base, a small travel fee may apply — we'll always tell you upfront on the call.

What if it's raining for an outdoor party?

We're happy to work indoors or outdoors. If weather is uncertain, plan an indoor backup space — we'll still be there. We don't cancel for weather; you set the call on whether the party happens.

Tips & extras
Should I tip the entertainer?

Tips aren't expected, but they're always appreciated. Honestly, the best tip is leaving us a review or recommending us to another parent.

Are your paints and products safe for sensitive skin?

Yes. All face paints are non-toxic and hypoallergenic. Henna is plant-based and natural. Glitter body art uses skin-safe adhesives. If your child has a specific allergy, mention it when booking and we'll make sure to use appropriate products.

Can I request a specific theme or character?

Yes — let us know the theme when you book. We can match face painting designs, balloon creations, and costume characters to your party's theme. Note: our costume characters are inspired by themes (princess, superhero, etc.) but aren't representative of any licensed characters.

What's your cancellation policy?

We understand life happens. Cancel with reasonable notice and we'll work with you on rescheduling. We confirm the exact policy when you book — no surprises.

Have a question we didn't cover?

Just call. We've been doing this 25 years and there's almost no question we haven't heard — we'll answer honestly and quickly.
