Darth Vader

Darth Vader came out for my son’s 7th birthday party and he was just perfect! He looked like he just came off of the Star Wars movie set. He even played laser tag with my son! If you are looking for Darth Vader do not look further and book this amazing team!

Absolutely amazing!

Imagine the children’s excitement when Darth Vader entered the birthday party in full uniform accompanied by the Star Wars theme. He stayed in character for well over an hour and kept the kids entertained. From chatting with them to bravely holding off 10 children armed with balloon swords Darth Vader was the life of the party. If your child is into Star Wars I highly recommend you call them and the Force will be strong with your event.

Great But no Hotdog song

It was great the Mickey really took time with my baby boy and he was thrilled. The Mickey Mouse only had Disney music and no hotdog song or the Mickey Mouse theme song. My baby doesn’t know all the songs that was being played so he was kind of confused. The character was very professional even though the wind was blowing and it was freezing! Thank you but please get the Mickey songs!

We hired two characters for our 3 year old’s birthday party! The characters brought bubbles, glow sticks, stickers and birthday celebration blowers for the kids. They took pics and danced with the kids, it was great! The kids loved them!!

Best Party Ever!!

My son was celebrating his 4th birthday with a party at the park yesterday so I hired Best Ever Parties to play Marshall from Paw Patrol. Everything was PERFECT! They arrived on time and provided everything exactly as offered: Party favors for kids, bubbles, music, balloon animals, and photo opportunities. My son is very shy and I was impressed with the person playing Marshall who invited my son to get pushed in the swing. It was exactly what he needed to warm up to his favorite character! All the children were enthralled!! Thank you so much for such a perfect event!!

Nice people but not an exciting service

The reason I booked them was because my daughter's birthday was a circus theme and I wanted animal balloons at the party. I chose Daniel the Tiger because he was the best circus looking mascot. The lady told me when she got there that the night before her blower for her animal balloons broke.(not sure why I wasn't told the night before or the morning of her party, I would have just canceled) the Tiger didn't look like the picture I was sent. At the party the Tiger just kind of stood there he didn't dance or do much at all other than wave at the kids. They asked where to blow the bubbles I said inside was fine it was rainy outside, but they were getting on the hardwood not just the carpet. I asked them to stop because we didn't want the toddlers to slip and get hurt. The Tiger was going to read a story but you couldn't hear him at all. The balloons they did have my daughter loved. Balloons are her favorite thing, but they all kept popping. As she was carrying them one popped by her ear and made her cry. They offered me $30 back after the event. I just wished I knew before hand so I could have canceled the event, the balloons was the only reason I booked. I hope everyone else has a better experience. They were extremely nice people and I hate having to write this review.

Minnie was great!

She arrived earlier than expected which was fine. It took a few minutes for the 2 yr old to warm up to her, but blowing bubbles with Minnie did the trick. Lorelei danced to the music, loved the balloons, getting her nails done, and was kind of blown away. Unfortunately, she is in the process of getting a cold so didn't feel 100% the latter part. Not as many kids there as expected, but that was fine. The adults were impressed also. Great fun and great time was had. Thanks so much.

Was not worth the 300 spent.

First and for most, my kids were extremely excited when they first showed up. However, winnie was extremely rude and it wasnt just because she was in character. She did not make time to face paint all of the children, so 3 were left saddened. When booking them, I seen multiple things they were supposed to do with the kids. For example, karaoke, pictures with the kids, 4ft tall balloons for each child, balloon animals, face paint, and a goodie bag for each child. All of those things were why I was willing to pay so much, but all the witches did was face paint and balloon dogs. It didnt seem like the Sanderson sisters were at the party, it just seemed like I hired face painters. All in all, I won't book through this company again and I am completely unsatisfied.

Response from Best Ever Parties:

Sorry if you were not satisfied Brandi. The Children were squealing with delight, getting picked up and giving lots of hugs! The Sisters did a Movie 'Entrance' for them and SARAH even Sang the Movie Song! Special Attention was given to the Birthday Boy as well! The Sisters did their "Binx SPELL" on him and he had a long Movie conversation with WINNIE :) The children were certainly having a Great Time, and that is Our Main Job :) It sometimes happens that some 'adults' over anticipate about our Characters (from Movies) being actual Hollywood Entertainers. Perhaps that was the source of your disappointment? You also did not pay $300 ?
I believe you were looking at a different site's offerings, we don't offer Karaoke or Goodie Bags ? The Girls provided ALL that was listed in our Contract: Party Horns, Glow Bracelets, Bubbles, Blow up 4' Tall Balloons and Balloon Twist (cats/dogs) and they Played their Music CD Player for an hour! They Posed for Photos with the Children and even an adult who was having a Birthday! WINNIE's Character does "Act" kind of rude :) she was actually quoting several lines from the Movie! SARAH was being Very Silly and MARY was chasing the Children around...all being "In Character"! Our Characters often do other Professional jobs, I'm sure your Party got the Full Sanderson Sisters Character treatment :)
Of course we Are sorry if we missed a child for the Face Painting ?? The girls were all up on the porch at the end and said they painted every child that was in line during the hour visit....you did have children playing in various areas inside and outside, maybe when it was time to leave they suddenly wanted to be painted ?
Best I can say, is be sure to read your Contract so you know which Company you have Booked and what you are getting, and be sure the children know there is a certain time length to the Face Painter's Visit! Hope you have better luck with your Parties in Future!

Wow! You're Welcome. We were happy to be able to respond to your Last Minute Booking Request and to even provide a Character your daughter loved! The Staff arrived Early - Before your 5pm Party Time, only to find the Inflatable Costume Fan was not responding. The office was contacted immediately and You were Informed that a New Fan was on it's way to your home! I arrived at 5:16pm with the Fan. You were given an EXTRA 1/2 hour Party Time to make up for the 16 minute Fan Delay. The Staff did All Activities and gave out Favors and Balloons (as You agreed to in our Contract) EXCEPT, the Character decided Not to take his Break and kept Playing with the Children - Outside for an hour and a half!!!
By the way, we DO understand Spanish. Your parting comments were Unkind and Uncalled for. I certainly hope there were no little ears close enough to have heard you. As you will have noticed, we are Professionals and did Not return comments. However, we will Not be able to provide you Character/Party Services in the future. "Best Ever Parties"

Made My Little Guy's Day

We hired Paw Patrol's Marshall for our son's 3rd birthday. It was a stormy, rainy day and lots of kids canceled, so Marshall had the task of entertaining the birthday boy, an 18 month old and a 15 month old inside a tight party space. Personally, that's my idea of hell but the actress did a fantastic job coming up with things to do with the little ones for an hour.

I want my money back, it was awful

I want to be very honest, Ironman was great, he deserved all the money and I would definitely get him again. My grandson turned 7 years old, and all she did was made some balloons and played a game...very, very disappointing. It was something a 3 year old would do at a party, but being the person that I am, I still paid and gave a tip. My last 5 parties for him were great. I would love to send some ideas for you guys to get an idea of what characters and parties are supposed to be like to know you got your money’s worth. Thank God I had a trampoline out for the kids and pie face and the blindfold game and music. They were horrible, except Ironman. She said Spider-Man was new. I'm very, very disappointed! My whole guest list was very, very, very upset but I wouldn’t let them say anything. I really, really, really deserve my money back, just being honest. I really don’t want you to post this because it was not the characters fault, they just need a lot more experience on what to do. The games were wack.

Amazing Customer Service

I dealt with Ellie at Best Parties Ever and she was a great help from ideas to explaining what was included. She was such a joy to talk to and was completely professional. I look forward to using them in the future. I highly recommend this business for any type party.

Seemed Lost

Batman was sweet, yet young, and seemed unsure of what to do next. He did not interact with the kids unless the kids came up to him, other than that he would just stand there looking around. He did not play with the children or help with the party flow. I actually sent them on their way a few minutes early shy of 1 hr, the kids just left the room. Again, he was sweet and the kids enjoyed themselves, which was the whole point.

It Was Okay

Kind of boring; expected more. Best part was the pre-drawn Pikachu paintings.

Response from Best Ever Parties:

Hey, Jennifer! Yes, sometimes the parents can be bored just watching, but the Party Children were having a Blast! They Loved the Painting Project and were asking to Paint more! PIKACHU Played the Entire Time over the whole gym "waddling around with them running (he refused to take his allowed break so he could stay with the children :) even though the same 3 little boys kept Hitting and kicking him in the Face and Groin even after 1 of the teachers and I asked them to stop :( but PIKACHU is a trooper and VERY Patient with children! We did Your Chosen and Requested: Art Project, Bubbles waving (twice), Blew Up #17 Balloons for the tossing game, Played the Pokémon "Poke Ball Catch" Game you chose and gave out Party Horns! We could have done more - remember we offered the Balloon Twisting and Face Painting or Tattoos and Music, but you chose only a 45 min visit with the aforementioned items. We did take some cute photos of the children playing! I will forward those over to you. ellie

Elena of Avalor

Overall, she was really nice and beautiful. We were expecting a 20 yr old princess based on the picture sent to us when booking and considering Elena of Avalor is a kid, but we got someone much older than that. We were also told she would do face painting, she did One kind only on all the girls. This was a very small party so she could definitely have done a little variety. She also showed up 10-15 minutes late and left on time. My daughter and birthday girl is only 4 years old, and she loved it and did not notice the difference, so the goal was accomplished.

And, in honor of Sweet Little Alex..... all of our Characters will be wearing cute "Character Watches" with their Costumes from now on, so they will absolutely know how to be On Time :) We appreciate your input in helping our Company Improve and Grow!

We were very pleased with our experienced with Best Parties Ever. Mickey Mouse showed up on time and entertained the birthday boy and guests from beginning to end. They followed up with numerous times all the way up to the date of the party. Everyone was very professional and courteous. We will definitely be recommending Best Parties Ever in the future.

Princess Ariel

Ellie is a wonderful woman, she is very creative, and did a great job face painting. I do appreciate her traveling for my daughter’s birthday party. What I do not like is for anyone to show up late regardless of distance, and to lie to my face. I ordered Princess Ariel for my daughter’s party and messaged back and forth about Ariel showing up and hours before the party the Ariel I ordered is sick & my daughter’s birthday party started late, and there were many excuses to follow. After, meeting Ellie in person and going back through the pictures, I have realized Ellie was the “Ariel” I ordered and no offense to age or appearance, but Ariel is a younger looking woman and children do notice those things! I would NEVER use this company for a princess character, again. Do your research!

Response from Best Ever Parties:

Mrs. Boston, we are sorry that you were not 100% Happy with your event. Late arrivals are Rare for us, as our Top Performer Status shows. Unfortunately, Traffic is beyond our Control, but we do 'make up' late arrivals by adding Extra Time & fun to events! We have examined the circumstances of your event, and this is our understanding: You did receive a substitute Ariel, as your scheduled Ariel was ill. Any of our ladies can be Princesses & Characters. Perhaps you were referring to the generic Group Princess Portrait that was included in our 1st email correspondence, and expected a specific Teen Princess. I can assure you, the performer you received is our #1 Requested lady for our returning customers. She is a Certified Pre-school Teacher and one of our sweetest ladies...I'm sure you noted her talent, which our 2 Teens are "in training" to learn. As for the Late Arrival -Our Performers are required to use the Vehicle GPS Automatic Pro Device. We know exactly when she started the ignition (12:28pm) and began the drive to your location, the Google Trip Log recorded that she maintained a constant speed until a GPS indicated 15min delay located near Skyland. We see that she called you (as per Contract) to let you know she had a Traffic Delay (1:39). She let you know that GPS indicated a 2:15 arrival time for your 2pm scheduled event. In your call at 2:23 she let you know she had been searching for Parking, and had just found a lot. The Pro Device shows the 1st ignition 'off' near the Venue location at 2:29pm. Approx. 20 min was lost in the park search, finally secured 1 block from your Venue in a $Pay Lot for $6. This 20 mins was confirmed by the Pro Device.(Even 1 of your guests told her of their 30 min search) All Activities done, she added Bubbles, and stayed 1 hour extra, instead of just the 30 mins due. We understand parents want the Best for these special days. We feel honest and truthful effort was given on our part, toward the success of your event.

Minnie Mouse

Our Minnie Mouse was great. She paid special attention to the birthday girl but still included everyone. We had to be flexible because it started getting chilly outside, so Minnie helped move the party inside! My 3 year old wanted to go home with Minnie and woke in the middle of the night talking about how much she missed her. Fantastic experience.

Amazing 😍😍😍

TuTu was a big hit for Hunter's 6th Birthday. Even the children who were afraid of clowns, were soon interacting with TuTu. Even the adults fell in love with her personality, and her wonderful interaction with all the guests. My son said she was the best clown ever, and he wanted her to do his parties every year. A big thanks to GigSalad, and Best Ever Parties for making my son's 6th Birthday Carnival the "Best Ever".

Great Experience

Catboy was the highlight of my son’s party. He turned 3 and enjoyed the party, but nothing topped when he seen Catboy. He would not leave his side the entire time he was there. I couldn’t have imagined a better reaction from him. I wouldn’t give a million dollars for the smile he had! Thanks so much Best Ever Parties. Very reasonably priced with great amenities!!!

Disappointing

We were not impressed with Elsa. She waited for everyone to be still to listen to her book when she first arrived and with a bunch of two year olds, that was not going to happen. The kids waited to see what she was going to do and she just stood there. She did not command a presence and was not excited and welcoming to the kids. She was quiet and barely explained what she was doing. As the parent, I was waiting for her to give the kids direction and take charge of the activity, but she failed to do so. I will not be recommending her in the future.

Response from Best Ever Parties:

We are So sorry you weren't pleased with your Character Visit Mrs. Landsverk. Your Booking notes show that you wanted "to keep it short with a storytime and let Elsa pass out her Gifts". She did indicate that all the adults and children were eating lunch when she arrived and the children were located in several rooms. She waited for the majority to finish eating before she was able to start her Snowing Game. We advise our Characters not to interact with toddlers at mealtime for their safety (choking) and most parents prefer their children actually to eat at mealtimes. In the case of toddlers we suggest booking the Character Entertainment to occur Before or After a mealtime. It is most enjoyable for very young children to be gathered in one location, preferably seated (often in mom's lap!) so they can focus on the entertainment as a group at a scheduled time!
