You'll spend as much or less on this than you will on a party at a museum or kid gym center. One tip, make sure you have tarps or something to lay on the grass bc they don't bring those. Luckily we found some and laid down, otherwise our yard would have been torn UP from the kids running (it was damp that day)

I responded (email) quickly to the quote with a couple questions. Again no response, so I called and left two voicemails on back-to-back weekdays during business hours. I never heard back. Even if I'd wanted to accept the quote and book the rentals, I don't know how I would have given their lack of response. Extremely frustrating communication, I would not try them again.

Despite his admirable and well-intentioned outlook, I couldn't wait to dance, swing, and work my way around that pole! I originally learned about Vertical Tease Durham on Groupon, my curiosity roused I went to their website and decided to try the Intro to Pole but with the Pay as you go Rate for $10 a session in the 11AM Saturday morning slot. I don't know how strippers do it - working that pole is hard work, and not to mention super fun! Clad in yoga pants, my friend and I giggled like two mischievous school girls, I think there was even a "weeee" squeal after our first Firemans swing. Besides being a ton of fun, this pole dancing class was a pretty good workout as told by my sore delts, lats, and obliques the next day. I can't wait to work that pole again! I'm going to rent out the studio for a private party for one of my girlfriends birthday! Weeeee! Sorry Chris Rock. PS - Vertical Tease is a little hard to find, GPS took us over by Chapel Hill so we ended up calling and getting directions from the receptionist. There's a service road and it's upstairs.

Having now been to two classes, I can say that pole dancing is definitely their forte. Kendra, the manager (and possibly owner), is fun and enthusiastic. Her constant encouragement was helpful for newbies like myself. "It doesn't matter how hard you fall as long as you get up sexy," may be my new motto. The instruction was great, and the workout was pretty good too (although I may be investing in kneepads). Five dollar Fridays rotate the style of lesson, giving you a chance to try some new things without spending a lot of money. After such a great lesson with Kendra, however, I was disappointed by the belly dancing class I took. The instructor seemed inexperienced, saying things like, "do the... what's it called..." and "let me see if I remember the next step." I've had better workouts practicing on my own, and since I didn't get a lot of feedback from the instructor on my technique, I'm inclined to keep it that way. Over all, I encourage everyone to check out the pole dancing classes, but if you're interested in another style of work out, maybe look somewhere else. PS. Give yourself plenty of time to get there; it's hard to find (on a frontage road to 15-501 and over Pomegranate Kitchen).

Ryan Steffes, the photographer, ordered the balloon and apparently they're used to doing this and gave him options for baskets and what not. The netting was pretty cute but I think a different twine or something would have looked a little nicer. It was crazy hot but we only had it outside for a few hours. Sadly, it started to wilt the next day but my daughter still enjoyed playing with it even if it was on the ground.

I say "balloon towers" now, but at the time I had no idea what options were available nor what they were called. I received excellent assistance over the phone from a Balloons & Tunes staff member who very patiently listened to what I needed and explained my options. The balloon towers were delivered on time, lasted well, and looked amazing. This week I ordered "number balloons" for a birthday celebration during the pandemic. As before, I received professional service over the phone. Pick-up at the store was easy and touch-free. The balloons were weighted with easy-to-adjust, sand-filled weights and I was told that helium refills are free. The large, shiny balloons really brightened up a quarantined birthday celebration and their price was absolutely reasonable. I recommend Balloons & Tunes without reservation.

She worked with us to pause activities so we could do cake & sing happy birthday. She helped encourage the kids to gather for that. I'd definitely recommend her and would use her again

We had about 12 kids, and it felt perfectly comfortable inside with plenty of room for everyone to play. The atmosphere in the truck kept the kids fully entertained the entire time, and it made hosting a group that size so much easier. From a parent's perspective, this is a great party option - it's self-contained, stress-free, and the kids had an absolute blast. The booking process was straightforward, though one thing I would have preferred was the option to have a quick phone call instead of handling everything by email and text. That said, communication was clear and professional, and everything went smoothly on the day of the event. If you're looking for something unique that kids will talk about long after the party, I highly recommend Gaming Unplugged. This is a 5-star experience, and we'll definitely consider booking again in the future!
