Well it doesn't fit and they wont exchange it and even didn't get any bigger sizes in. The lady was rude and completely unhelpful. This was the first and last time I will ever purchase anything from this company. What a joke! Now I'm out $32 for a toddler costume. I wouldn't recommend this store to anyone!

Now here I am again 9 years later and after my daughter's 6th birthday, and I am still singing their praises. The staff at Ideas alive is top notch - friendly, responsive, helpful. But it's truly the actors/actresses who are incredible! They have the ability to bring characters to life and create magical, memorable parties. This time around we hired an Ariel - she was STUNNING. She was so sweet and genuinely magical. Every single girl fell in love with her. From the dancing to the story time and face painting and the photo ops, everything was absolutely perfect. I especially loved how she didn't hesitate to jump in and on the trampoline with all the littles. I absolutely adored her and would recommend her in a heart beat, any time. Ideas Alive - thank you for continuing to create these special memories. You guys really are the best!!!

My daughter LOVED Ariel and is already talking about which princess she wants to come next year. Ariel was everything you could hope for: sweet, professional, beautiful, and perfectly prepared. It was an incredibly hot day, yet she stayed calm, graceful, and in character the entire time. She improvised beautifully when needed and made every child feel special. Truly a total pro. Thank you so much for helping make my daughter's birthday party so magical and unforgettable. We'll definitely be hiring another princess next year!

I called DanceTrendz to see if they had one and Jami was so kind to offer to make one for me if they didn't! They didn't have my size in store and she made one as promised and it came out fantastic!!! Everyone there was so helpful and kind and I appreciated their customer service and kindness. I would definitely recommend this store and would come back anytime.

She thought she had a set in stock that would fit, and when it did not she went on a personal quest to find some that did. Within a week, the shoes were in hand and just what we needed.

**Store Closing Notice** Actually all Party City locations…read moreare closing and for Tacoma I suppose you could go to the Lakewood location also for your party supply needs but I was most familiar with the Federal Way location. Liked lot of stores when first discovered I purchased more items here which was a long time ago but as time went on the novelty wore off. But they always did have a good variety of Halloween masks at this location. Since this store I imagine isn't going to see another Halloween the best thing to utilize is rake advantage of closing sales. Since the whole company apparently seems to be going under it's a safe bet inventory liquidation sales are going to start happening. And as usual with this kind of phenomenon if you go early when these sales start you will have more variety with some discount as opposed to later where the discount is more noticeable in exchange for less variety.

Oh, how happy to find all the rocket and space party decor for my son's upcoming birthday! I don't live near this store, but my sister's (in law) family lives nearby and shop here for their party goods and special occasion needs!! I ordered online and picked up in-store a few days later. (They give you 7 days or more with a simple call to the store). When you arrive, you can call them for curbside pickup and they will bring your order out to your car! We went inside to see if they had a piñata (last minute idea) for the party. Ken, the manager was so friendly. Greeting customers and genuinely happy to help. I didn't have to wait long at all. He called an employee to open a register and take the next guest to make the line go quicker. He was awesome, quick, friendly, and just what we needed to make sure we had all we needed for a great party. My nephew was with us and the cashier was super sweet. Gave him a balloon, filled it with air, and just made him SO happy! It was the best customer service and experience (getting everything we needed)!! Will definitely return and recommend this store for your themed party needs!!
