I booked with Gabriella at such short notice and she was able to accommodate my kids party with ballon twisting & face paint. She was so lovely and arrived early with everything she needed.

A little late to review but haven’t forgotten. I loved how happy and kind this couple was with us. Very punctual, responsive and very good value for money. They made us a beautiful balloon arch for our sons birthday and he couldn’t be happier!! He loved the colors and 2 weeks down the balloons are still as vibrant and in shape. I unfortunately didn’t manage to get good pictures. Thank you again for bringing smiles in such hard times.

Yanina R.May 2019

Gabriela was amazing, all kids were so happy. The face painting was a huge success for our 5 year old birthday party! Can’t recommend her enough.

Jackelyn K.Apr 2019

This talented group brought so much joy to our kids party. I loved how professional she was. She was so tidy with the paint, as I was a little worried about it getting on places, and truly respected the value in her work. She did not sit still for a minutes and even came up to us to suggest doing balloons after every kid received there choice of face paint! We are excited to book her for more gigs this year! Her versatility, amazing vibe, fun and adaptable demeanor was a win win win! So beyond grateful that this sight exposed her to my family and friends! She does NOT disappoint and everyone kept asking us, “where did you find her!” So pleased!

A very good event and Mr Firu was superb and his magic tricks are out of the box and even kept the adults engaged and surprised. He was funny and very patient with the kids. He arrived way before time for set up and was there to ensure everyone was happy. Will recommend him to anyone looking to hire a magician 😊
