Perfect Princess Tea Party - YOUR Location - FAQ's
How many guests can we invite?
The Perfect Princess Tea Party - YOUR location - package includes seating for up to 16 children. That includes 2 large tables (circle or rectangular - depending on the space), chairs, napkins, tea sets and china plates. Additional seats/tables can be added. The cost for additional child is $10/seat. We have the ability to seat up to 30 children at 4 tables. Any event with over 20 children will require a 2nd Fairy Godmother (Tea Party Host). That fee is an additional $100.
What space requirements are needed to have a Perfect Princess Tea Party?
Our Perfect Princess Tea Party Package requires the use of two separate spaces or one large open room. The children will have their tea time and dessert time at our decorated tea tables. When not having tea or dessert, they will need a space where the character can sit down, and the children can sit in front of them (a story time type of setting), and an area big enough where they can get in a circle and play games.
When working with the office to plan your tea party, you will be asked to take a pictures of the space you intend to hold your event . It will give us a better idea on decorations, how many tables/chairs will fit, etc. If you'd prefer, we can always use your dining room table and chairs for the tea time, depending on the number of guests you are planning on hosting.
What decorations are included?
We will provide a beautiful backdrop for pictures, decorative rug, gift table, elegant centerpieces for tables, character colored linens/napkins, chair sashes, vintage teacups, saucers, and plates for each child, beautiful tiered serving trays and a buffet table for all of your food items with matching linens.
What food/drink do I need to provide?
- 3-4 finger foods
- Non-staining beverage of choice - Pink Lemonade is Perfect!
- Birthday dessert (Cupcakes are best. They allow for more character time.)
Do I need to provide any utensils/plates/cups/napkins etc.?
We will provide all of the plates, teacups and napkins for the number of children included in your package. Should you have additional attending adults, we will not have any plates/cups/napkins for them. We also do not provide any cutlery. If you are having a birthday cake, or serving a dish that requires a spoon or fork, you will need to provide them.
How early will my Fairy Godmother (Tea Party Host) arrive to set-up for the Tea Party?
Your Fairy Godmother will show up to the event 60-90 minutes (depending on the needs of the space) before the event to set-up decorations, tables, chairs, backdrop, rug and table settings. Prior the event, we will help you move all of your pre-made food items to our decorative serving trays and plates.
How long will the requested character be at the event?
Your character will be there for approximately 2 hours.
When should my guests arrive for the Tea Party?
We ask that you have your guests arrive right at the event start time booked. We will need all of the time before to get everything ready. Your character will arrive ten minutes after this. The opening activity lends itself to any late arrivals, so no one will miss out.
How much is it for additional characters?
Additional characters are $140/character.
Are there any travel fees?
Magical Moments will travel up to 20 miles for free from our location: 813 9th Street, Greeley, CO 80631. There will be a $10 fuel reimbursement fee plus a $1.25/mile travel time fee added on for any miles beyond the included amount. We check all of our mileage through Google Maps. We do round up to the next mile. For example, a party that is 26.4 miles from our location will have a $10 fuel fee and a travel time fee of $8.75 (26.4 miles (20 are included) 7 miles x $1.25/mile = $8.25). This fee will be noted in your confirmation email. This fee goes directly to the performers for their round-trip fuel and travel time.
Can I host my event outside?
Yes! We can accommodate our Perfect Princess Tea Party outdoors on select weekends from May through September weather permitting. For our outside Tea Parties, we will bring two 10x10 tents for the Tea Party area and an additi0nal area for the activities. We will need to cap our outside tea party events at 16 children for this set-up. The cost for this additional set-up time is $100. If you are supplying an outdoor shelter or pavilion with shade, we will be able to wave this cost and accommodate more guests.
What happens at the end of the event? Can my guests stay longer?
Your character will leave at the scheduled event end time. You are more than welcome to have your guests stay. However, our Fairy Godmothers will begin clearing the space immediately following the character's departure. We recommend having your guests remain in a separate space than the tea party area during this time.
Should I tip my Performer and Fairy Godmother?
Gratuities are not included in the package pricing, and are always greatly appreciated by our characters and tea party hosts! Our employees are professional working actors all along the Front Range. They usually receive tips anywhere from $20-$100 per performer/host per event. If you decide to leave a gratuity, you can always hand cash to your Fairy Godmother or ask for their Venmo, whichever you prefer. They will then split it between them.
