Heaven did a very professional job for a rather conservative audience. Much appreciated!
Response from Heaven Bellydancer:
Thank you so much Scott! It was my pleasure to perform for your lovely guests, especially for such a wonderful cause. Wishing you all the best.
My guests can’t stop raving about Heaven. Heaven arrived on-time, and entered the room in a colorful outfit. She was a surprise performance for my wedding guests and they were in awe from the moment she entered the room. I wanted to honor my middle eastern heritage and Heaven made that happen. She made our wedding reception unique and everyone who attended haven’t stopped talking about her performance for days. The children that attended believed Heaven was a princess from a Disney movie, they totally loved her too. Thank you so much Heaven! You’re stunning, professional, and the best in West! Thank you xoxo
Heaven was great.
Response from Heaven Bellydancer:
Thanks, Herman! It was fun meeting you guys.
I couldn’t recommend Heaven more. She was so talented and lovely. She added such good vibes to our bachelorette party for an audience of just 9. We then had a mini class after her show, which was so much fun! Will definitely hire her again for another event ASAP. Thank you, Heaven! Our bride was delighted.
Response from Heaven Bellydancer:
Thank you so much for your kind words, you really made my day Sydney! It was a joy to meet you and be a part of your beautiful celebration. Hope to see you again real soon.
I hired Heaven for my husbands 50th birthday celebration. She was so much fun and entertaining. Everyone kept saying how beautiful and what a great show she put on and I agree. We would hire her again in a heartbeat. She had the crowd entertained and up and dancing. Thank you for making my husbands special day the talk of the town. He thanked me for hiring you as a surprise instead of the casino party we originally planned.
Response from Heaven Bellydancer:
Thank you so much Camisha for your lovely review! You made my day. I had so much fun being part of the festivities, your guests were so funny and friendly! Warm wishes to you and your husband and hope to see you again soon.
I can’t say enough positive things about Heaven. From start to finish, she was absolutely perfect. She communicated promptly and was great to work with, punctual, professional and of course, an amazing dancer. We were surprising my dad for his 90th birthday and she pulled it all off flawlessly. The look on his face when she came out was priceless and the highlight of his night was dancing with her. We are so grateful and would highly recommend Heaven to anyone interested in hiring a belly dancer for their next event!

Dear Jiguett, you completely made my Monday! Thank you so much for our kind words. I absolutely love these pictures and I think the photographer did a great job capturing the happy spirit of the group. Many good wishes to you, Anthony, and all your lovely guests!
I hired Heaven to Bellydance at a retirement party I had at my house for a co-worker. I'd never done anything like that before but from start to finish, the whole experience was fantastic. Gig Salad was easy to work with and Heaven was such a great dancer. Really great! She was professional and interested in what I wanted in a performance. It was a perfect addition to a great party.My co-workers can't stop talking about how beautiful she was and what fun they had.

Heaven was one of the highlights of our wedding. She is so talented and kind. We had a blast watching her performance & dancing with her. She is great at bringing people in who want to participate but also minding boundaries. She is a light that brightens up the room :) Thank you Heaven for the wonderful performance. Everyone raved about you!

Heaven was a great addition to our corporate meeting! She was very professional, and did a great job getting a randomly selected group to perform a few belly dancing moves! I will definitely keep Heaven in mind for any future events.

This was such a fun event! What a creative idea for a meeting. Thank you so much for your kind review and for inviting me to be a part of your day!
Heaven preformed at my daughters 18th birthday and was amazing. She really got everyone invovled and up dancing. She got here on time and was ready to dance. She was also very flexible with the timing of our event and accommodating to the other activities we had going on. Over all, well above all expectations!!! She is great!!!
