This is such a long overdue review for one of the highlights from our June wedding at Clos…read moreLaChance! Since we first started planning, my husband and I have always wanted to have frosé at our wedding reception. However, once we were knee deep into planning, we had to put frosé on the backburner to prioritize everything else. About half a year before our wedding, this was still something the two of us wanted so we found Monterey Margarita Company. From the initial interaction, Gary was responsive, transparent, and helpful. Within an hour of our inquiry, Gary sent back a response giving us an estimate. In order to help us stay within budget, Gary gave us ideas and was willing to waive some fees to help us out. That says a lot about the business! He was also helpful in navigating how many bottles of Rosé to buy and accommodated for our non-drinkers as well! From that point on, Gary would check in with us until the week of the wedding. Besides being responsive, Gary always expressed enthusiasm for our wedding which in return made us even more excited. On the day of the wedding, Gary and Carmen stopped by and checked in on us before leaving us with their two wonderful attendants. They made sure that my husband and I got to try the first taste of their frosé. Delicious couldn't even begin to describe how great it tasted! On one of the most chaotic days of our lives, it felt so good to be able to relax and have a sip of the frosé. It's an understatement to say that the frosé was the highlight of the reception. All our guests enjoyed the frosé so much and could not stop raving about how great it tasted. Even to this day, we still hear about it all the time and it makes us so happy to know that our wedding and the frosé that Monterey Margarita Company provided can have such a lasting impression!

We decided on face painting, a glitter bar and time for entertainment. Gale was our assigned fairy; she reached out a few days before our event. The morning of, we found out very last minute that we had to change our venue due to rain and Gale was flexible and was right on pace - after a quick text to her, she showed up as the new location on time. She arrived in a very festive Encanto/Mirabel outfit; our location change ended up being to our home and garage. Gale led an entertaining puppet show (several other parents thought for a short while that her rabbit puppet was a real animal) - kids and parents enjoyed it! The kids loved her artistry with her glittery tattoos on their face and hands. Her balloon animals were also a huge hit. It was fantastic to have 1 person with so many great skills to keep kids happy. As my husband and I were running the party, we loved the fact that we were able to keep ~25 2 to 5 year olds entertained for the 3 hour party (2 hours during which Gale was there). It was the best decision to have hired her. Booking with the company was also very easy and organized; I highly recommend it and would do it again. Thanks Gale for making our kid's birthday special and fun, and to the team at Happily Ever Laughter for being so organized and thoughtful. Worth it!!

I used the Disney Train for a Minnie Mouse themed party and it was a HUGE hit. The kids had a blast, the train itself was clean and super cute. For the second party we used the basketball hoop and slide jumphouse and that was also a huge hit. We had kids from 2 years old to 8 years old jumping. I even tried out both and was happy with how clean and well kept they both were. We always have our parties at the park and both times set up and take down were easy and efficient. Customer service is very friendly and professional. With the last party, I called 5 days before party day and they worked with me and made sure we had a jumper. An idea for parents if you are looking to get your child a jumphouse; Birthday parties and presents can get expensive. On two different occasions my gift to my child has been a party with a jumphouse. You are buying an experience, not just a toy. We have so many toys and stuffies I don't know what to do with it all. All the kids were so excited and happy with the jumphouse, you don't have to think of much else for the party because the main focus is the jumphouse. If you are doing it at the park you do need a permit through the city, it's easy to get. I will always recommend Jumparty! And use them for future parties.

I am so grateful that Patty was recommended to me, I have no idea what I would have done without her. If you have no experience planning a wedding, then Patty is a great option. She will go above and beyond. She helped me with EVERYTHING. We had so many phone calls about planning, venders, timelines, you name it. We got married at the Monterey Plaza Hotel and Spa, Patty got our marriage insurance (didn't know that was a thing) and every detail was done to my exact wishes; our rooms, a get-ready room, timeline. She helped me find and book my venders; makeup, hair, live music. She knew about the area restrictions and completely managed all my venders. She made the best timelines I have ever seen in my life, had everything to a tee with wiggle room in case things did not go according to plan (which they rarely do). She even helped my officiant (who was our best friend) with his ceremony timeline and speech. Patty took care of everything, even when I had vender drama, she took care of it without me having to deal with it at all. And she even ran to our room when our ring bearer forget our rings! Day of, Patty has her assistant Carol which is more than a bonus. Both Patty and Carol are adored by me and my family. Truly were like my own family, even helped me put my shoes on. There are no perfect words to describe how truly grateful I am for having them at my wedding. Best decision I have ever made. 10/10 would hire them again.
