Planning Your Party – General Questions Preparing Your Party – After You've Booked Questions Day of Your Party – Entertainment Questions Planning Your Party – General Questions What sets My Fairytale Party apart from similar companies? Our Experience – Creator & owner Stacia began her career as a National Event Planner. Working on luxury brands gave Stacia the know-how of high-caliber event planning & detail. Most importantly, being a Mother to a 3 year old has given Stacia the full-time, first-hand experience of what it takes to really entertain children! Our Talent – Stacia was reluctant to expand the brand beyond being the sole entertainer, thus she sought not only talent that could look & play the role exceptionally, but also talent that had extensive experience working with & compassionately for children. In addition, all of the My Fairytale Party talent possess a strong talent in singing, dancing, or both. Our Integrity & Passion – We all do this job because we LOVE it. If you are not completely satisfied, neither are we. We will do our absolute best to make every situation as positive as possible, regardless of the circumstances. How do I book a party? Call 973-309-3092 or complete the form under the "Contact Us" tab to reserve your party. An Agreement will be emailed to you, which needs to be completed & submitted back to us to reserve your party. Do you offer a location where I can hold my party? Yes. We offer party space at the Lifetime Fitness gym in Florham Park. The rental rate is $200 for 12 children & includes a 2-hour use of the space as well as food & drink for the children. This rate does not include our entertainment rates. Does your entertainment include boys? Yes. Our entertainment, although mostly princess or girl themed, offers elements of pure children's entertainment. Additionally, we tie the prince or boy theme into our entertainment, so they often have just as good of a time as the girls - in some cases more! What is the best time to start my party & start the entertainment? If choosing the Ultimate Package, we suggest no later than 30 minutes into the party as the face-painting / makeup / tattoo portion can only be done one at a time. The ideal performance start time is 15 minutes into party. The entertainment portion begins once this is complete to ensure that latecomers don't miss the show! Planning to serve food during the face painting / makeup / tattoo portion works best or a craft can be added to keep the little ones busy while waiting. If choosing the Works Package, we suggest no later than an hour after the party has begun. If choosing the Magic Package, any time towards the first half of the party. What does your dress-up include & do they get to keep them? For our princess parties, included dress-up is tutus & floral tiaras for the girls & crowns & swords for the boys. Deluxe dress-up with princess gowns may be added onto parties less than 15 for an additional $25. Wings will be used in place of tiaras for the Ivy Fairy parties. The tutu & tiara/wing dress-up sets are available as an add-on for $10 & make a great goody bag option! Preparing Your Party – After You've Booked Questions How will my party be confirmed? We will call you at least 3 days prior to your scheduled party to confirm all of the details with you, including your RSVPs. When do you need to know my RSVPs? We need to know your final count when we call you 3 days prior to party to confirm. Adding on last minute RSVPs cannot guarantee them a dress-up set however we will try our hardest to accommodate all requests. What age child "counts" in my RSVPs? If you think the child will participate in having either face painting, makeup or a tattoo you should count them. If you know they will want to get dressed up they should be counted. Our over-time rate is $25 per 15 minutes. Are there any additional fees I should expect above & beyond the package rate? A Travel Fee of $50 will be incurred for parties further than 75 minutes outside of Livingston, NJ and $75 for parties further than 100 minutes. We use www.maps.google.com to determine this. A travel fee of $50 or greater will be applicable for all parties in New York & Connecticut. Parking Fees are to be reimbursed by the client. Ultimate Package parties with more than 10 children will be an additional $5 per child. Add-Ons inclusive but not limited to additional characters, baked goods, goody bags, crafts, horse & carriage rental, princess phone calls are not included in the base price but will be determined & provided in your final total with your confirmation call. What is your cancellation policy? We understand unexpected things come up. If you have to cancel please just let us know as soon as possible. We do not require that you re-book us. We truly only want to be where we are invited! What happens if bad weather arises or another emergency? We use www.weather.com as a guide for bad weather. If it is not advised to travel in cases of a "blizzard warning" or "storm warning" we will not travel, however we will work with you to re-book a better time. In case of a "weather advisory" or "winter storm watch" we will contact you about any possible changes in the party details. Rare situations occur in everyone's lives, however if there is an emergency with your entertainer, we will do our absolute best to fill their absence. We will always work with you to come the best solution. What type of set-up do you require? Wide, open space is best for our entertainment portion. With face painting / makeup / tattoos, please have a table for our arts case & two chairs facing each other. Kindly set these up in advance. Day of Your Party – Entertainment Questions What should I expect when the Entertainer arrives? The Entertainer will arrive no later than 10 minutes prior to the performance start time & will call the phone number that you provided on your Agreement. If there is no answer, she will greet you at your door! For ball-gown princesses, we will arrive no later than 15 minutes before the performance start time to get dressed. Kindly have a space in mind for this. Is your face paint & makeup safe for children? We strive to not only make your party as enjoyable and memorable as possible, but we pay close attention to ensuring we also provide the safest environment for your children. All of our face-paint & makeup is hypoallergenic & a high-quality grade. We are not liable however, for any allergic reaction that may occur. What should I expect with the entertainment? Well-orchestrated show-stopping fun!

Expect a party that is entertaining for everyone! What if I want my Entertainer to stay longer? If our day's schedule allows, we will gladly accommodate such a request. The additional rate will be $25 per 15 minutes per character. What do you recommend as gratuity for my Entertainer? 10% – 20% of the base rate would be greatly appreciated.
