Weather Conditions

For the safety of our performers in hot weather months, we require that ALL outdoor parties:

​

• Provide a covered and shaded area for the performers.

• Fans and water must be present.

• If the heat index is too high we may ask that you secure an alternate location for the party. This would only be required if the heat index poses a threat to the performers as there is an added heat risk with the weighted costumes and wigs.

​

 For Fall/Winter months: Outdoor character appearances under a covered and shaded area are acceptable.  The performer may add pieces to their costume for outdoor winter events. 

 

Our characters cannot be placed in rain, mud, gravel, or within 30 feet of smoke. 

 

Booking Days/Times

We currently book for any day of the week starting at 9 am. Booking times are based on current bookings and performer availability.  

We have many actresses and actors that portray our characters. Please be aware that you may not receive the same actress/actor as pictured on our website or at prior events. Specific entertainers cannot be guaranteed. *Specific character requests may be made but are not guaranteed.

 

Performance and Routine

Your package includes all and only what is listed in the package details. Our princesses and character impersonators arrive already in costume and ready to entertain at your party and do not need any 'set-up' time beforehand. 

 

The character will call the phone number provided by the client upon arrival at your party/event only if it has been requested. The character will proceed to enter the house/area of the party/event at the scheduled start time.

 

We may bring an assistant that will help set up supplies, take photos, and answer any business-related questions. Please note that any photos we take may be used for advertisement/promotional purposes on our website or social media if you agree to the intake form.

 

The assistant is there to make the party run smoothly for you. They may take pictures which they can share with you. This is an additional service that you are not paying for. We don’t guarantee these pictures and the responsibility of taking pictures of your magical experience is your responsibility. 

 

Final Payment

The remaining balance due will be paid to the company anytime up to the day prior to your event. You may make payments anytime but the remaining balance MUST be settled the day prior to your event.

 

Child Supervision

Please remember during the appearance that your character performer is an entertainer ONLY and children should be supervised by parents at ALL times. 

 

Please make sure children are in no way damaging the character's costume or supplies.  If an assistant is present he/she will be helping with the children but this is not a replacement for supervising the children at your event.
