Cinderella, Prince Charming & Rapunzel were not only precessional but it was like they walked out of the story books. When someone can keep 25 5 year olds attention for 2 hours you know they are GOOD!! Sure I could have rented a boucehouse but what kind of memory would that have made. THANK YOU INVITE A PRINCESS!!

I had Victoria decosmo for a carnival event and she was great! She portrayed wonderful artistic ability with her henna designs and my campus will definitely be requesting her and her co workers in the future!!

Victoria came to Elms College for our carnival on the quad. She was very professional, outgoing, and did amazing work. She accommodated to what people wanted, and was very friendly. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. I was incredibly happy with her work, and I know that all of the students that received henna were also very happy. I will definitely keep her in mind for our future events!

I cannot say enough good things about this company. Kayleen came to our party as Ariel and blew us all away. She really transformed into the character and made sure that each child had special personal moments with her. She made the kids feel so comfortable and they were in awe about meeting a real life princess! My daughter asked when she was coming back as soon as she left. Her face painting was wonderful, and her glitter tattoos added that extra sparkle that our party needed!

Response from Invite an Artist:
Thanks, Lisa! We loved working with you to plan the event! So glad your customers loved Belle!
We had Amber at our party as Jasmine. She was so funny with the kids, great costume (we're a big Disney family, and honestly her costume was better than the parks costumes) and full of energy. Two weeks later my daughter is still talking about her favorite princess.

Thank you for the review for Amber, Michael! She's such a treasure and we so enjoyed working with you and your family on making such wonderful memories!
The Minnie girl was great at entertaining with the kids.... the hour and half flew by. My only criticism is that this was not a full costumed character. That would have really taken my daughter's breath away. This character was a "Minnie Mouse" girl. With that said, she did nail Minnie's voice, mannerisms and persona.

Response from Invite an Artist:
Hi Pasha, we had spoken about how our Minnie Mascots can't do the games and songs to keep the character integrity high, and that she would come in the costume/face paint to be able to do all of the things you had wanted her to do.
Sorry if there was miscommunication but we thought the face character was what you had preferred.
Please let us know if we can do anything for you in the future, and so glad you loved your artist.
We had Tiana over the summer for one of my daughter's birthday. Today (it's January) "Almost There" came on the Pandora while we were eating breakfast and my daughter started talking about her birthday when Tiana came over! She asked if she could visit again this birthday, and when I called Invite A Princess to see if they were still in business and all that, the woman I talked to on the phone remembered us from back in July!
Wanted to write a review because they're just so friendly and accommodating, plus their princesses are great.
See you guys soon!

When Cinderella and Prince Charming arrived at my daughters 8th birthday party at the park the look on my daughter's face as priceless! It almost brought a tear to my eye how starstruck my daughter was. The people at the park watched as Cinderella sang and danced with the girls hamden Prince Charming taught the boys how go use his sword. I would highly recommend them for anyone's event, because they were friendly and wonderful oh and very good singing voice too, the songs are still stuck in my head! Thank you for an unforgettable birthday for my daughter!

It was my daughter's 7th birthday and her dad is overseas so we had to make the day special. The Invite a Princess crew was amazing. All the kids loved it, even the boys! I had many of my guests book a future party with her. Thanks for a memorable event!

For the past 2 years we have had Cinderella visit for my daughter's birthday. My daughter is a HUGE Cinderella fan ... HUGE! This IS Cinderella ... the closest thing you can get short of going to Disney. Professional and talented!!! Having Cinderella in our home has been nothing short of a magical experience for hte last 2 years!!
She remains in character and touches both children and adults alike ... I plan on making her visit a birthday tradition for my daughter!!

I had my daughter's 5th party a few weeks ago now and everyone loved Cinderella and Prince Charming! They did an amazing job with not only getting the kids to interact, but the adults too. I even had one adult tell me she wanted wanted to book them just to watch them again. I would def. recommend them!!!
Princess Party
We were so pleased with our experience. Cinderella and Prince Charming made a surprise visit for my little one's 3rd birthday. My 5 year old daughter was in as much amazement as the younger one. They are still talking about how they can't believe a real princess was in their house. Invite a Princess made this birthday one to remember!
My 6 yr old and all her friends loved Cinderella and her Prince. From the moment it started they were captivated/spell-bound. I would highly recommend Invite a Princess for a magical birthday for your little princess.
Princess Party
Invite a Princess Party is the most amazing party. We had a Princess Cinderella and Prince Charming party for my granddaughters 6th birthday. I don't think she will ever forget it, nor will the adults. The look in her eyes and on her face is beyond words. Princess Cinderella and Prince Charming are professional, amazing entertainers. Their presentation, a real life fairytale, attire, music, dancing,and storytelling is totally amazing. The children couldn't take their eyes off them. From the declaration and crowning of Princess Angelina, the presentation of the glass slipper, teaching the young girls to be princesses, the boys to be kinghts right down to cake time. Every minute was fantastic. I so highly recommend Invite a Princess.
Princess Party
Invite A Princess is AMAZING. They are very talented and very professional. My first experience with Invite a Princess was a birthday party. They were amazing. Singing, dancing, story telling. Prince Charming taking time to teach the boys to be a "Prince". Cinderella teach the princesses how to be a "princess". It was amazing. Their costumes were so professional as well as they are. My personal experience, was a "private princess party" for my 5 year old. She is a very sickly child and had made many wishes in the "wishing well" at the hospital. One of her wishes was, that Princesses were real. Invite a Princess heard about this wish and made her wish come true. They arrived with with tea, goodies, tiara, wand, hand painted tea cup, a badge for bravery during her doctors visits and of course, the glass slipper. My daughter still talks about this experience to this day. They made one little girl, who otherwise, has a little bit of a rough life, believe that wishes and dreams can come true. And, for that, we thank you from the bottoms or our hearts. My husband and I were so touched. Cinderella, just so you know, she wears the "brave badge" that was given to her, to EVERY hospital visit/doctors appointment now. It gives her the strength/confidence that she did not have before! They are amazing professional performers and true caring/loving individuals. Thank you again. We will always remeber this day.

" On Caylee's birthday we had the glass slipper delivery. I think my daughter was Star Struck. My family and I will never forget the dancing, singing and the special messages that you said to her. It is all she talks about-"Cinderella gave me a real glass slipper!", Then on the day of her party, it was just as Kathy said to me. Cinderella was Caylee's friend and there was no more shyness. Both experiences were beyond any expectation that I had. At the party, I think the adults had just as much! I can not thank you enough for the memories that you have us!
