Frequently Asked Questions:
How Did You Get Started with this Business?
Ever since I was young I've loved performing. I've studied voice and acting since I was 10 years old. It's just something that gets in your blood. If I can brighten the lives of children, that makes me feel good. It's the best thing about working as a children's performer: I really can make their dreams come true!
How are You Different from Other Performers?
Anyone can put on a costume and show up at a party. I've studied each and every one of these characters inside and out. I know how they talk and move and I know their history. I can interact with the children confidently and answer any of their questions easily. The children can easily believe in my characters. I can see it in their faces when I walk through the door. They tell me, "Cinderella, I'm so glad you came!" and that's the moment I know I've made a difference and that is the most important thing!
The following is very important information. Please read carefully and discuss any questions with Once Upon A Party owner, Sarah Paul.
Booking A Date
First, call and check that the date is available. I suggest calling at least a month in advance.
There is a $25 Non-Refundable Deposit to book your event. Your deposit guarantees placement on our calendar. The deposit will be applied to your final invoice. Simply asking does not hold your date.
Events booked on a major holiday will be charged an additional fee.
Credit cards are accepted, but checks or money orders are preferred. Please ask during your interview.
What If I Have To Cancel A Party?
Your Deposit is Non-Refundable, but we will gladly work with you to choose an alternative date in the event you need to reschedule. In the event of unforeseen circumstances or inclement weather, Once Upon A Party reserves the right to reschedule your event.
What Ages Can I Have At A Party?
Our parties are specifically catered to children 3-10 years old. Older or younger children can be discussed. Age may place certain variations on your party.
Where Are The Parties Held?
Parties can be held in your home or any other venue you choose. Our characters are very flexible!
