Once Upon a Princess

04/29/2008 Posted by debdeflores

We recently attended a fantastic relaunch party at Burgundy Blue where Cinderella was painting children's faces. I know the owners of both and was so pleased to see them working together, Stephanie had accompanied the princess to the party herself. After the little girls dressed up in costumes (they all wanted to be princesses too) Cinderella told them a story and then sang a song. My girls are 3 and 6 and my oldest has been to just enough parties to understand that sometimes grown ups wear costumes too. However, when Cinderella started to sing, my 6 yr old daughter's eyes grew wide and she turned to me and exclaimed "Mommy! It's the REAL Cinderella!" Just when I thought the magic years were almost over for her, one enchanted moment brought it all back. Thank you Burgundy Blue and Once Upon A Princess for keeping childhood dreams alive.

Pros: authentic character, exceptional voice

Cons: none

Last Sat, my daughter and I employed Tinker Bell for my Granddaughter’s 4th birthday party. I was pleased to inform the owner that the young lady portraying Tinker Bell was amazing and an asset to the party’s success. She had great patience with each child (the children loved the face painting) and continued to show her patience in getting them settled down for the story telling time. She had an amazing story telling ability that reminded me of the great story tellers in my childhood and, I might add, that even the adults paid close attention to her telling the stories of The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast. Finally, she sang two princess songs which amazed everyone with her beautiful and professional sounding voice. Needless to say, her presence and performance met with everyone’s applause. She then helped organize the children for the Birthday Song and led the singing of it. And, of course, the Tiara crowning of my Granddaughter was the culmination highlight of the party...it brought a tear to my wife’s eye. After Tinker Bell left, many of the adults wanted to know “Who was she?” and “Where did you find her?” and I, of course, took all the credit...but I also made sure they knew where to find you. In closing, my wife stated it perfectly, “It was like we plucked Tinker Bell right out of Disneyland and placed her in our very own backyard”. Tinker Bell’s presence, her patience, her organizational skills, her beautiful voice, and her pleasantness were outstanding and a wonderful addition to Melissa’s Birthday party. What a beautiful voice she has!! I am certainly glad that I met the Princesses .....and was smart enough to call you for Melissa’s birthday. Your representative was professional, kind, and very talented. I will readily refer you and your talented Princesses to everyone I meet, especially those with young children. Stephanie, thank you and Tinker Bell for making our Granddaughter’s birthday a success.

"Once Upon a Princess" is the key to a magical princess party. They are very thorough, professional, and perfect princesses, covering every detail and staying in TRUE DISNEY CHARACTER AND STYLE the whole time! I have been to many princess parties and none has been as great as those from "Once Upon a Princess.

I recently used characters from Once Upon A Princess at my daughter's party, and I have to say - I was amazed! I had seen them at several friends' parties before, so I knew that they did a wonderful job, but there's nothing quite like the experience of seeing the reaction on your own daughter's face, and having that magic in your own home! We go to Disneyland all the time, and my daughter is totally into the princesses, so it was a dream come true for her to have Cinderella show up at her house JUST FOR HER to celebrate her birthday! It made her feel so special, and my husband and I couldn't be happier that we found this company to make her party so memorable. And since she's only three, I'm sure we'll be using them for several years to come! I can't wait to do it again next year!

I want to thank you very much for helping make Renee's birthday a memorable one. She was overjoyed with having the princesses at her birthday. I also want to say you were terrific and were great with the kids. Everyone left that day thoroughly impressed with "the princesses". I made sure my wife expressed our gratitude.

Our experience with your company was great. Our party was a success thanks to the visit we received from Princess Belle. The face painting and games were perfect. Everyone at the party was especially thrilled when Belle sang a song. Even the adults felt like a princess was at the party! Our daughter still talks about it. We look forward to having another princess visit again. Thanks!

Thank you for coming to my daughter Amanda’s party on July 14th. We had SO many compliments on the party and especially on Cinderella! People have viewed the photos and asked if we were at Disneyland because Cinderella is ‘the real thing’. It was truly a dream come true for my daughter. Watching you dance with her, one friend told me, “You did the right thing for your daughter”, meaning it was so very worth it to ‘splurge’ for her party. Thank you for such wonderful memories!

My daughter Bella just had her 4th birthday and she's CRAZY for the Disney Princesses, especially Belle. My husband found this company through City Search and did his research. The owner of the company was sooo accomodating and friendly and communicated with us the whole way. I have to admit I was wary, (I've been to some pretty BAD character parties), but when Belle showed up at our party, we were ABSOLUTELY blown away! The owner herself showed up and was Belle to the tee - she looked absolutely beautiful, was so great to the girls at the party and most importantly, made a memory for my little girl that she won't soon forget. She read them stories (in my daughter's room no less!) , did a craft, sang some songs (she had a BEAUTIFUL voice) and sang happy birthday to our daughter. It truly was the highlight of the party. All the parents were so impressed. And, my husband and I both work for Disney in the animation industry (as did most of the party guests) so expectations were high - she more than fullfilled them. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone else looking to have a princess party!!!

When we used Once Upon A Princess for our daughter's birthday party, it was after she had been so delighted on a visit to Disneyland by Cinderella. Imagine how happy she was when Cinderella appeared at her 5 year birthday party. The woman who played Cinderella was PERFECT-- from her appearence to her voice-- my wife and I were just blown away. She read to the children (even the boys liked it!) and held a 'princess school' for the girls while the boys played. Our daughter loved her Cinderella experience, and we'll be using Once Upon a Princess Again. -Michael C. on behalf of Lilly, 5 years old-- Burbank, CA
