Looking Glass Friends Entertainment

Ariel visited my daughter's birthday celebration this weekend and she was s huge hit! I've also used Lookingglass for Elsa & Anna, in addition to Sleeping Beauty. I've been thrilled every time. These performers are just a cut above - everything from their demeanor to their costumes to the way they engage the kids consistently exceeds expectations.

I hosted a tea party for some girls in our community and might I say that Beauty was the talk of the day! She arrived and immediately jumped right into character and took over the party! I especially appreciated how she handled the questions that the girls asked. One little girl told her that she'd been to Disney world and seen her and beauty followed up with I thought you looked familiar, it warmed her heart! I loved
Everything about beauty she taught them quick lessons in tea party etiquette as well as princess training and still had time to sing and tell a story. She knew what to do to host

We just had my daughters 6th birthday party with Queen Elsa and it was an amazing experience for her and her friends. When I first started planning her party she wanted an Little Mermaid party so I booked Arial to come, well then FROZEN happened and after seeing it she changed her mind and wanted Elsa. Well after a month of trying to get her to stick with Arial and not being sure the policy or even if Elsa would be available I emailed Looking Glass Friends to see about switching characters and they made it happen. We were able to get Elsa.
I decided to surprise my daughter with Elsa instead of telling her that she was coming and it was a hit. All the girls were speechless when she came in. She was in Character from the moment she called me on the phone to let me know that she was here to the moment she left. I would highly recommend Looking Glass Friends Entertainment to anyone looking for princess or super hero party. I also loved the fact that all I had to worry about was the decorations and food. They came with games to play as well as singing and dancing. One of the parents thanked me for setting the bar so high for them on their parties.

My daughter, Gabby, just turned four and we had a Sofia the First party for her at our home. We chose Looking Glass Friends as an entertainment company after discovering the link through Kidstown's website (a nearby children's creative play area that we love). Looking Glass Friends' website was easy to navigate, and it was awesome to see the photos of the characters right there, so that you could see what the costumes looked like, etc. The prices, package options, and booking process were all spelled out very clearly on the website also; this reinforced the notion that it was a great company and indeed the entire booking process was smooth, easy, and efficient. Christine always responded immediately to any communication or questions that I had sent, and the event reminder several days beforehand was also wonderful to know that they were still 100% in sync with the plans. The only thing that I did wonder about (but this is my own fault as I forgot to ask), is what an appropriate tip might be for the performer, as I was unsure what amount the performer would be making, and therefore what sort of tip might be appropriate. It was such an amazing experience that I hate to wonder if I "under-tipped" such an awesome performer. Otherwise, I can't think of anything to improve on at all, truly.

Now the fun part... the character appearance! Sofia was PERFECT!!! From the moment she walked into our door and through the very end of the party, she was indeed IN CHARACTER and every detail was simply amazing. Her voice was soft and sweet, her gown was beautiful and exactly as the animated character's, even her hair and face was spot on. Sofia came with great activities for the girls, and they LOVED every minute of it -- she was so great with the kids and had them hanging on every word she said. Their eyes were as big as saucers while they watched her, and she had every bit of their attention for the entire hour (which is saying a lot when you consider the attention span of a group of 13 4-year old girls -- that's no easy feat)! Sofia was just awesome with the kids; she was patient and allowed them to share their thoughts and ideas, and listened to the many stories they wanted to share with her. Sofia's singing voice was beautiful and it even sounded like the Sofia from the show! The kids really loved the "Hot Clover" game they played and it was an extra special surprise that each child got to pick a prize, too; they truly loved that. The princess training, story telling, and dancing were also big hits, and it was pretty awesome that Sofia sang "Happy Birthday" with us at cake time.

Really, this was hands-down an unforgettable, AMAZING experience. This is going to stick with them all for a long time to come, simply awesome! I can't recommend it more. All of the other parents were asking about the company and were highly impressed, too. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! You have made us very happy. :)

We hired Doc to come to our daughter's 2nd birthday. What a great decision! The professionalism and organization at the time of booking was wonderful. Doc did a great job holding the interest of the two year olds- as well as almost 10 older siblings. Everyone was in awe and had a great time with singing, story telling, and games. We have been to a lot of 2 year old parties that are either not structured enough (for the age group) or the activities were at a level too advanced for the age group. This, however, was a perfect balance. My son is already wanting a different character to come to his next birthday- 6 months away! Thank you for everything!

There are no words to describe the looks on my girls' faces when Snow Queen and Snow Princess arrived at their birthday party. The performers were in character from the minute they entered, and provided a wonderful story-telling, sing-a-long experience for all the guests. They were friendly and personable with all the children, and still made the birthday girls feel special. I highly recommend Looking Glass Friends and will certainly be using their services again in the future!

We just had Princess Elsa come to our house for a 30 minute appearance. She was on-time and in character. She had a beautiful costume and a wonderful singing voice! She sat down and told a cute version of the movie from "Elsa's" perspective and then played a game with the kids as well as took pictures. She did a great job answering all of the kid questions about how she got there etc. The price is also very reasonable. I will definitely use Looking Glass again.

We have used Looking glass Friends before and the kids were truly amazed! This time, we had Elsa entertain 12 girls between the ages of 7 to 10. You should have seen their faces when Elsa walked through the door! Squeals of awe & shock. They were mezmorized the entire hour. She kept them captivated by her beauty and activities. At one point she simply started singing Let it go and every girl belted out into song with her. It was so cute. The day we had the party it had snowed quite a bit, 8 inches were expected. On Elsa's departure the girls were asking her if she could make a snowman once she got outside, and if she would make more snow. Elsa politely said, "I think we have enough snow outside right now" .
The girls had a blast!

It was just amazing to watch 15 four years old sitting in a circle mesmerized by the beautifuk princess telling her story and singing songs. My grand daughter had previously attended a Cinderella brunch and when I saw her face light up at the sight of Cinderella I knew what I was going to do for her 4th birthday party. The attending parents were very impressed and it was a "magical" afternoon.

We have seen what Looking Glass Friends can do before - we were first introduced to it through a friend's birthday party where Cinderella and the Fairy Godmother came. They were fantastic - it was like bringing the characters to life! They stayed in character the entire time. Then, a group of us decided to bring Beauty in for a playdate and the storytime and songs with her were wonderful and so authentic. My daughter asked for another princess to come to her party so she chose Sleeping Beauty - we did the 30-minute package and it was just the right amount of time. Sleeping Beauty did story time, royalty training, and princess dancing - the 10 girls at the party were in awe. She also took pictures with the girls and was so patient with them. We plan on hiring them again - all of the moms were raving about her! Thank you for making her party so special!

I can't speak highly enough with our experience with Looking Glass Friends Entertainment and Princess Sophy! My daughter and her friends were absolutely mesmerized from the moment she walked in the door. She knew every detail of the show and there wasn't a thing that could stump her. The costume was magnificent and the kids were in awe. All of the little details meant so much to my daughter and she can't stop talking about it. I was so impressed with the entire experience from booking through the moment she walked out the door. All of the parents couldn't stop asking where we found her. I have seen Looking Glass characters (Tinkerbell, Cinderella, Aurora, Rapunzel) in other settings and was always amazed but to have the personal attention for my daughter and her friends was something that brought tears to my eyes.

Absolutely wonderful. We had Cinderella over for my daughter's 4th birthday party. They offered great suggestions and worked hard to ensure the day was very special. Cinderella was incredible. She had several activities planned and all of the children enjoyed spending time with her. We highly recommend Looking Glass Friends.

Every year we have looking glass friends send us a princess for my daughters party. It is the highlight of the party and the whole month before and after. That is all she talks about! We let her pick the princess she wants and tailor the party to that princess. I don't think we will ever not have one there. Looking glass friends are so accommodating and professional. The whole experience is amazing! We highly recommend them for an event you are planning!

Our Princess Golden Birthday was a success thanks to Tiana. She did a great job entertaining the kids and engaging them in fun activities. She also had the most beautiful singing voice.

We hired Princess Sofia to surprise my 4 year old at her party. She was Fantastic! She was perfect from her costume, to her mannerisms, to her knowledge of all things Sofia, to even her voice. We could not have been more satisfied. She had the childrens' undivided attention for the entire time and stayed in character even as she walked down the street! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!

My daughter is now 4 and we have booked a princess the last two years. This year was Ariel. She was amazing. She sang Part of Your World and it was great. Her voice was awesome. My daughter was so happy and that's is all I ask for. The booking process was very easy and I could choose the performer who came to the party. Thanks Looking Glass for making her day even better.

Everyone from the parents to the kids were very pleased with Princess Sofia. We had booked for 1.5 hours of party time and us parents had bets as to when the children would lose interest and want to play something else. Well, she kept their attention and they were even sad to see her leave when our princess time was up. We will definitely be using Looking Glass again and soon! Thank you to Princess Sofia for making this party the most memorable event of my daughter's life so far!

I was very impressed with Rapunzel. She looked exactly like her. She was very sweet and was great with the children. Her voice was amazing.. she did story time and sang songs. She danced and played games with the children. My daughter and all of the children loved her! I received many compliments from the parents and everyone wanting to know more info about the company. The weather was really bad that day (tornado warnings) and I appreciated her calling me in advance to let me know she might be running a little bit late. Not a big deal, once she arrived.. everything worked out perfect! I would definitely hire another character from Looking Glass Friends. It was a really good experience!!

We booked Rapunzel for our Daughter's 3rd birthday party. It was awesome. From beginning to end it was a great time. The communication from Christine before the party was assuring and set the expectations very high. We were not disppointed. When Rapunzel showed up it was amazing. My daughter was so excited. We had many children at the party and they were all very excited to meet Rapunzel. She told stories and sang songs during the story which was a great time. All the kids took pictures with her and got her autograph. They also danced, played games, and got to ask questions. Rapunzel never broke character throughout the party. Even the adults enjoyed watching everything. Many adults at the party inquired to how can they book characters from Looking Glass Friends. Anyone who books an expierence with them will be very pleased. We will definitely use Christine and Looking Glass Friends Entertainment again! Thank you.

This is the second year we have used Looking Glass Friends for my daughter's birthday. The princess does a great job and Cinderella was wonderful at engaging the children in her story and in a game of hide the pumpkin. My daughter is already talking about which princess should come on her fifth birthday.

was attended by Princess Aurora, Belle and Cinderella. There were about 20 children there all dressed up as their favorite characters and they were enchanted by the beautiful princesses as they played games, sang songs and danced with them. All the kids are still talking about the party. The princesses were amazing. I would like to have another party and do it again! The look on my daughter and the other kids faces was priceless! Well done. Thank you for a very special memorable day!

We just had Cinderella at my little girl's third birthday party. She was truly amazing, from the moment she entered my house to the time she left the party, she always stayed in character. The adults at the party could not believe how perfectly she told her story from memory and when she sang her song with her beautiful singing voice...everyone was mesmerized. I would highly recommend Cinderella for anyone looking for a true princess.

We had a 5th birthday party for our daughter and Rapunzel was absolutely charming. Everything about Looking glass was very professional and reliable, including a wonderful face painter. I look forward to another birthday party so I can book them again!

Tinkerbell was just absolutley AMAZING! From having the perfect costume, to playing the part, to dancing in the garden with the girls, to having pixie dust, she played the part perfectly! Very accomodating as well, as I had created a real life size how where my daughter would open it and find tinkerbell hidding in the box as a birthday surprise. It was just perfect! Tinekerbell was very accomodating in going into the box and surprising her on her birthday! All the girls were absolutley amazed and didnt want Tinkerbell to leave!!!!! Thank you Tinkerbell for an amazing unforgetable performance!!!!!

This past weekend I planned a small kid party for my 5 yr old's birthday. The mermaid, tail and all was a smash hit! While the kids were off playing upstairs, the mermaid (in tail) found a seat in our living room for the girls to come down and find. My gosh, they were so excited. Naturally the very first thing my not shy daughter did was lift up her tail and try to look inside. The tail was so beautifully made, and Ariel welcomed the curious peeks - it was very convincing. She was in character from start to finish. Her hair, makeup and costume were flawless! Once that settled, she engaged all the girls, even the shy ones. They talked, sang songs, told stories, disovered wishing stones and signed autographs. Before we knew it it was time for her to leave. The kids were wisked away again and she made her exit. We can not wait to have another event!

Everything about the performance yesterday was terrific. It was just absolutely perfect! The fact that you remained in character the entire time was awesome. I thought it was great that you gave a "heads up" phone call before arriving and made a graceful exit. I felt I may have thrown a few curveballs at you, like when I asked you to play "Bibbity Bobbity Boo" (Layla loves that song and asks for it often at home) - but was glad to see it didn't even seem to thrown you off! I didn't realize you'd have your own music and we actually had some ready to go in a boom box - but it went SO MUCH smoother with you having your own, so I'm so glad you did! I enjoyed your interaction with the children and involving them in the stories and activities. Again, thank you so much. I most definitely plan on using your company again soon and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone - which in fact, I've already done more than once.

We had the Little Mermaid at my daughter's 3rd birthday and she was wonderful. She never got out of character, interacted so well with the kids, if they said something off topic she went right along with it. She told the story of Ariel with participation from the kids, sand beautifully, had bubbles, and posed for pictures and autographs. The costume was incredible. I highly recommend this company.

Cinderella was wonderful at my daughter's 4th birthday. She looked just right, was polite, engaged well with the kids and sang beautifully! All of the parents were thrilled anf the kids had fun. I highly recommend! The organization of the party was easy and perfect. They did it all for me.

Cinderella was amazing. She was so beautiful, polite, and professional. I was told by some of our guest who had visited Disney world a few months before my daughters party, that she was better than the Cinderella they had at the breakfast with princess. She was great!

I hired Rapunzed for my daughter's 4th birthday. Not only was she in complete awe of seeing her favorite princess up close and in person, she wants her again next year lol. Rapunzel was in character from the moment she arrived until her very last moment, turning and waving to the kids as she walked back into the forest to her castle. :) She was professional, an amazing singer, had a smile on her face from the beginning to the very end, and was absolutely wonderful. Best money we have ever spent!!

She was wonderful! My daughter and her friends had a fabulous time with her. They loved dancing and singing with her and her story. Her voice was amazing, sounded just like the movie! My daughter asked me that mornign how Rapunzel would be getting to our house, and her walking up the driveway and parking down the street was perfect. They watched her walk away when she left and waved from the doorway till she disapeared. That was priceless! After her story was done I was worried the kids would loose interest, but she kept them interested for the whole hour. Thanks for a great experience!

We celebrated out daughters 5th birthday and had Ariel join us. I was very nervous about how good the appearance was going to be and I'm happy to say it far exceeded my expectations. Ariel looked amazing. Her costume was beautiful and she played the part perfectly. It was the kind of party that no one will forget! We have a 3 yr old and I'm sure she is going to want to have a princess party at some point in the future so I wouldn't hesitate to use Looking Glass again.

Having Cinderella at my daughter's 3rd birthday party was magical! The girls enjoyed listening to her story, helped with a sing-a-long, and enjoyed making their own princess wands. My daughter's expressions were priceless and will stay in my heart forever. This has become one of my favorite memories as a mother and I will cherish it forever. There isn't anything better than to see pure joy and excitement on your child's face!

We had my granddaughters birthday party this past sat ( April 6th). So very professional and very cool!! The interaction was very well as the kids had a great time. Adults too!! I would recommend to anyone that this was very cool and special. Thanks a lot allan

We had the pleasure of having Snow White make an appearance at my daughters 3rd birthday party. It was the most amazing experience for everyone at the party! Both the children and adults were so impressed with how exact on Snow White was! She stayed in character the entire time and was so professional! She was so awesome keep the kids entertained and happy! She looked exactly like the real Snow White, she sounded just like her, and she knew all the Snow White things to say! She did songs, stories, and played with the children! We had many compliments from the parents of the children who attended! The most important thing to me was my daughter who's birthday party it was... she talked about Snow White coming to birthday for days & still brings it up to this day! We are already planning her next birthday and plan on having Ariel to attend! If you are looking for a character to appear for any event book the Looking Glass Friends Entertainment right away! You will be so pleased you did!

Cinderella and the Fairy Godmother were wonderful at my daughters birthday party! They were in character and very engaging! Played games, took pictures, danced and stayed while we sang Happy Birthday. I consider this company the only company to work with for princess characters! Highly recommend

We hired Belle for my daughter's 4th birthday party after seeing Rapunzel in action at a friend's party. I was completely happy with the entire process from beginning to end. They are extremely friendly, responsive and accomodating. And, the characters are the closest to the "real thing" you will ever see. Best of all, the performances, singing, storytelling, and voices blew everyone away! I just can't say enough about this company. We are already planning our next event and figuring out which character to use. We can't wait!

We invited Rapunzel from Looking Glass to help us celebrate our daughter's 3rd Birthday, and we couldn't have been happier. They offer plenty of options to make your event special, and are flexible in tailoring it to the needs of your child on the day of event. The overall appearance of Rapunzel was excellent. Her hair and costume are exquisitely presented! Absolutely beautiful. Everybody at the party was impressed by her appearance, and her sweet disposition. She was in character the entire time, and my daughter knew who she was from the second she walked in the door! Looking Glass really helped to make our daughter's day super special. I look forward to planning another event with them in the near future, and would urge everybody else to do the same! :)
