Wishing Well is simply the best! The care, love and respect for storytelling and character is…read moreunmatched by any entertainment company I have experienced in the SoCal area. From the very first inquiry to the follow-up message when your event is done, Kalinda and team will meet your every question attentively and promptly, and create a magical experience for all involved. Every character is a real-life princess and is so deeply caring with the lore and background and behavior of the world(s) they inhabit. I have been to and hosted many a Wishing Well party and I am always blown away - it truly feels like you have these characters come to life straight out of the stories and movies. Oh! And the insanely beautiful voices and dancing?? It's unreal. We most recently hosted a birthday party with Moana and when she started singing to the children the entire party went silent...the adults thought at first that she was lip-syncing to a recording and then quickly became convinced that we had worked some magic to have Moana pop right out of DIsney+ and into our lives. It was amazing. Wishing Well is amazing. On top of the mind-blowing, crowd-pleasing characters come to life, Kalinda also is sure to make sure that every possible detail is communicated and taken care (since we all know that things can fall through the cracks with the million things going on in life and party planning...)! I have always felt so taken care of and know that when Wishing Well is involved, it's going to be a magical day for everyone.

Our family is so immensely grateful for the absolute utter magic Stephanie (Elsa) added to my…read moredaughter's 4th birthday party. We were all honestly in awe of her, just the most perfect Elsa we could have ever hoped for. My daughter is insanely particular and notices every single detail, so a part of me was afraid she'd think whoever came was most certainly not her true Elsa. But WOW Stephanie sold that Elsa magic so well--from the outfit to the makeup to her poise to her amazing singing voice. The joy my little girl felt all throughout her party and into today will be something our family will remember probably forever. Stephanie made her feel SO special, gave her such amazing care and attention, but also handled the other kiddos so beautifully. At least half the parents there begged me for the contact information for how we booked her. Thank you Stephanie for your professionalism, promptness, and everything you delivered on yesterday. We'll never forget it. Not to mention, Kalinda was very attentive through email during the booking process, and even while away in another country on vacation, she handled a last-minute performer swap wonderfully due to an emergency. She stayed in touched and made sure we were taken care of. 5-stars all the way.

I think you get what you paid for with Dreamcharacters. They are on the cheaper side compared to…read moreother companies nearby and I think that's why their characters are alright. I hired Spiderman for my son's birthday party and although Tony(the manager) was very professional, the person who was in the Spiderman costume was not the best. He lacks some charisma and some energy. He played all the games requested on the booking but I expected more when it came to the "superhero training." All he did for that was bring out a nerf gun and had the kids take a turn shooting. Mind you, there were around 25 kids so it took a while and the kids were getting antsy just waiting in line. For the "dance party" party, his speaker was small and you couldn't even really hear the music so I let him use our big speaker. Not a big deal but you would think they would be more prepared. I was offered to pay extra for a grand entrance and present for the birthday boy and I'm glad I didn't because my son was still given a present and it was a small paint kit from the dollar tree. Booking process was really easy, but overall the service from the characters was not the best. Manager responded promptly and though Spiderman was not the best in my opinion, he showed up on time which was also professional on their side.

From booking to the day of the party, Whimsical Wonders Parties was wonderful to work with. They were responsive, professional, answered all of my questions, and clearly explained what to expect. We had 10 toddlers and Spider Hero kept them completely engaged for the entire 1.5 hours. He took pictures, signed autographs, answered their questions, decorated masks, played games, and led superhero training. It was action packed and exactly what we needed! The kids had an absolute blast and I was able to actually enjoy the party. My son felt so special, and the entire experience was even better than I imagined.

The Ninja Turtles looked unbelievably realistic and were a huge hit at my son's birthday party.

It truly felt like the Ninja Turtles had come to life. My son and all of his friends were absolutely thrilled. The team had fun activities planned, kept the kids engaged, and never hesitated to pose for photos. They were energetic, patient, and wonderful with the children. The experience exceeded our expectations, and we couldn't have been happier with our decision to book them. In fact, several parents at the party asked for their information because they want to hire them for their own children's birthdays. Highly recommend!

They were attentive, energetic, and truly went above and beyond to make the party special.

The actor that came as Spider-Man was fully in character before he got here and was spot on with a quick FaceTime call ahead of time to surprise the birthday boy. He engaged quickly and effortlessly with all 10 ish kids and the adults as well. His spidey tricks and in-character performances had my 4yo son engaged and enamored the entire time. He played tag, hide and seek, danced and did balloon animals as well. He had a few opportunities to say some spidermanesque things to my son to really sell the character and nailed it every time. Lots of posed pictures as well. Absolutely 10/10 and I would book again. Thanks again Dream Makers!
