Fun, fun, fun! I have used this company three times now and myself as well as the kids have never…read morebeen disappointed. Their selection of characters seems to been limitless and they continue to add more every year. My brother and I have used them for our littler ones theme birthday parties such as Star Wars (Storm Trooper), Minnie Mouse and Shopkins. Let me tell you, that Storm Trooper really has some moves on him (LOL)! They supply their own music (boom box) and entertain the little ones with dance songs. As a parent of two, it is nice to sit back and let someone else take control of the party. Just recently, we recommended Cartoons International to a good friend of ours. He requested "Elmo" from Sesame Street. Elmo was a hit! From the minute that he walked into Popolo's Pizza, he had kids following him to the birthday party. We allowed some kids to enter and so that they could return to the parents with business cards (marketing 101). I recently seen on post on Facebook that "Cartoon International Characters" went to Valley Children's Hospital with an array of characters to entertain the sick kiddos of the Central Valley .This right here hits home for me! Both my children have been at Valley Children's hospital for minor and major issues. For the owners and employees of the company to donate their time to sick children at a hospital is 5 Stars in itself! God Bless! Rob and Karla are very nice people that always show up to the party with a smile on their face! I do believe they charge a travel fee, if they have to travel outside of Madera. I don't mind, since they are organized, reliable and bring life to the party, it is totally worth it! I highly recommend using this company for any/all special occasion, trust me your kids will love it! 5 Stars Ritchie T

My daughter just had an Ariel princess party at the Clovis Enchanted Corner venue on Saturday 2/17…read more The venue is small inside but plenty of room for 8 girls and a large enough patio outside for parents, weather permitting. In our case it was raining so the adults ended up inside most of the time and we were able to squeeze five us in, but if the parents are comfortable I would suggest most parents drop off rather than stay. The attention paid to my dusghter to make her feel special did not go unnoticed. The owner of the day spa that the princess parties are hosted out of on weekends made special Ariel themed soaps for her to take home which were absolutely adorable. Ariel did an amazing job entertaining the girls the entire hour and a half and was very good at keeping them in line without being abrasive. There was even a coronation ceremony where my daughter was announced as she entered the room, recited what I only can think to call a mermaid oath, and received her mermaid tail necklace. The venue provided plates, napkins, cups, and even the apple juice the girls drank from their tea cups. Since it is only an hour and a half I think most could get by just doing cake and maybe some finger foods. I opted to bring pizza just because the party ran during a typical dinner time. Overall it was an amazing experience for my daughter and the easiest most low maintenance party I've ever thrown for her. Edited to add the owner,Tammy, was amazing and even though Ariel ended up being sick the day of she found a replacement before she even contacted me and it only caused the party start and end time to shift by 15 minutes so Ariel could make it in time from her previous party.

Absolutely unforgettable experiences, year after year! I've…read morebeen using Character Select for years, and they never disappoint. From birthday party pop-ups to Easter Bunny basket deliveries and of course the Grinch at Christmas (which is always a huge hit!) they consistently go above and beyond. Every character is professional, punctual, and truly brings the magic to life. What I appreciate most is how affordable they are without ever sacrificing quality. You can tell they genuinely care about creating meaningful moments, not just showing up in a costume. The smiles, laughter, and excitement they create are memories my family will cherish forever. If you're looking for a character company that's reliable, professional, and guaranteed to leave a lasting impression, Character Select is the one. I recommend them 100% and will continue booking them for all our special occasions. Truly magical every single time

If I could leave negative stars I would, I have been trying to contact and get ahold of anyone…read morethrough the phone number that they give but no one ever answers, and when I do reach out and text the number I still don't get a response. I have to bug Jason on instagram. I made an appointment for a birthday a month in advanced and the whole time everything seemed like it would work out but I texted Jason the week of the event and all of a sudden the character I wanted was booked. I gave him my information and I was hesitant to send a deposits because of how low the communication was. I was ready to pay full as soon as the character got here as I was not being reassured or communicated with effectively and efficiently. Obviously if I keep reaching out it's because I want the character to come and I'm serious about the inquiry. What a shame now my daughter won't be able enjoy the princess she really wanted to see. F you Jason.

Ok- one super satisfied customer here, party success! I had attended an event where this company,…read moreKealoha Events, had supplied 3 characters, and I totally remembered how much the kids all loved them. So, I booked the Character, Stitch, for our birthday using their site- & it was super user friendly. The party was outside, early evening, and in the high 80's to 90's, temperature-wise. The Character arrived with Sean, who was the one directing and leading the activities. They played hot potato, musical chairs, had a cookie eating contest, and danced. Stitch posed for lots of pictures and Stitch made his way around to greet and mingle with guests, both the kids and adults. Balloons were blown up to play with, and Stitch hung out right by the birthday girl when it was time for cake and The Happy Birthday Song. They came with their own sound system, and even added in a requested song to the set. I just needed to have an outlet available, super easy. I booked online, but also spoke with Sean on the phone, and he clarified any questions I had, as well as provided me with detailed info. I received emails and phone calls for confirmation and updates. I was so pleased that the Stitch (Parody) Character, as it was listed on their site, was available on 626 Day (Stitch Day). Might I say...that costume was actually really well made, and authentic looking. Sometimes characters are like a close 2nd, or kinda resemble one you'd hoped it would be- not the case here, I was so pleased! They stayed for one hour, and helped to create fun memories for all the guests! Sean shared with me that there are many characters, bounce houses, etc. to choose from- so I went back to the site, and I was in awe! I had really just looked up the character we wanted to book, but there are really so many options- and the slides and bounce houses listed too look cool! So overall, the amount of interaction between the character and guests for that hour- great! Based on our whole party experience, I would definitely recommend booking with them. Such a fun way to elevate a party!
