She was right on time, professional, easy to work with and everyone loved their personalized tarot readings. She helped make my daughter's graduation party a huge success!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
It was such a delight! Thank you!
Thank you Carmel for the wonderful singing telegram for a 50th birthday. From the song you wrote to the outfit and personality the recipient had just enough fear, shock, and laughter. Appreciate it! Also easy communication and transaction.
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thank so much! It was a treat!
We had a fairly chaotically planned corporate event that Carmel was able to assist us with. Throughout our planning process she was amazingly patient and responsive. Without her calm head helping us through I am sure we wouldn't have had the success we found at this event! Everyone loved her and we really hope to be able to work with her again. You absolutely cannot go wrong hiring Spectacle & Mirth for your next event!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thanks so much!!
We hired her as an impersonator of an 80’s female rock star at the last minute and she nailed it! Highly recommend! Easy to work with, very responsive, great sense of humor, did a phenomenal job all the way around!
Scheduling the event went smoothly and the Entertainer responded quickly to emails. She showed up as scheduled and did a great job getting the audience involved. This was a surprise 50th birthday celebration for the boss of a company.
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thanks Pamela!
The performers were so engaging. They provided the extra wow-factor for our community event. Thanks Awesometown!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thank you! It was such a perfect day for your event.
Carmel is AMAZING! She was booked for a corporate "Zoom Bomb Singing Telegram" for a 50th birthday - she far exceeded our expectations. She personalized a song for the birthday recipient and was exactly what we were looking for. Not only did she do an awesome job, she was incredibly kind and accommodating. I accidently booked the event for the wrong day; I reached out to Carmel, she saved the day AND performed an entire day early. Can't thank you enough, Carmel!!!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
My pleasure! Thanks for the opportunity!
My church hired 2 entertainers from Awesometown Entertainers for a Halloween festival. The performers were wonderful, enthusiastic, talented and professional! We hired a juggler and buugeng flow artist--the crowd loved them!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thank you so much!
Everyone loved the performance. It was over the top fun and funny. Interacts with audience and adds personal touch.
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thanks Donna! They were a lovely crowd. - Carmel
Carmel performed an incredible singing telegram that was personalized and interactive. It was loved by all and a unique, funny memory that no one will ever forget.
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thank you!
Easy to work with, funny, and great at the event. Carmel zoomed into a meeting to surprise an employee with a promotion announcement. She created a personalized song and performed it very well. It was funny and well worth the $$!
We had a great experience, I had to book from a distance (in Texas). However, I received constant communication and they did a great job on site. I'm definitely going to recommend again!!!!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thank you! It was a treat to deliver to such a charming place!
She was fantastic!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thanks it was a treat with you all as my back up singers!
She was on time and her performance was customized perfectly for my daughter’s birthday! Highly recommend!!! Would use again in a heartbeat!!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thank you! It was such a treat!
Carmel arrived on time and delivered a perfect custom made song, and a bouquet of flowers, to my mom on Mother’s Day. Everyone loved it, especially my mom. Couldn’t be happier.
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thanks it was a treat!
Turning 30 during these difficult times was hard. I am in NC and my daughter is in VA! She helped make the day brighter! She was flexible and included the kids while maintaining social distancing! It was awesome!!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Thanks it was a treat!
Carmel dressed in full funeral attire with a bouquet of flowers and sung a variation of "we are the champions" to my fantasy football rival. It was a huge hit and absolutely hilarious!
Response from Spectacle & Mirth:
Yay! It was my pleasure!
We'd book her again in a minute!! She did a great job with the crowds, posing for pictures and just generally being her cute self!! Thank you Carmel for making our work party so enjoyable!! You were a hit!!
Carmel showed up on time like she said. Sashayed into the room playing her Uke, my husband was very surprised and enjoyed his time being celebrated. The guest was singing along and snapping their fingers. Thank you GigSalad and Carmel for making my husband 56th birthday a memorable one!!
Carmel was well prepared, wore the perfect outfit, was extremely outgoing, and "worked the room" like the pro she is! The fact that she can do accents added to the experience! There's no way that I could recommend her more highly!!
Great. Fun. Definitely created a Wonderful Memory for all who attended the Party.
