Elegant and Swanky Paint Party!!!…read more Such an original type of party for friends. Put together about 12 of us for a Paint the Grapes party. I along with all my guests were extremely impressed with the setup. Very personal and private. Included in our ticket were excellent appetizers / finger foods, wine & beer. Relaxing music provided, but were reminded that we could request any music. Everyone chose their own painting creation. Honestly, our men were not overly excited about the date-night scheduled for them. Surprisingly they all had the most fun and put so much time in their painting. We all look forward to attending another party. I would recommend an event for anyone planning a shower, fundraiser, or just a night out with friends that's a little different.

I had the best experience with the Jackson Family painting company. I can't recommend them enough…read more They had a great price and so many options from adult themed parties to kids parties with options for crafts, stencils and different levels of guidance. I didn't even realize I had so many great options when considering having a paint session for my group. They were professional through the entire process, arrived on time, handled every aspect of the activity and their setup and clean up was quick and seamless. Some of the best customer service I've had and The way they entertained while also guiding us through our art piece was so fun. Also, they had a playlist going while we painted that was awesome. I will absolutely be booking them again! I used them for a team event for my stash and will definitely use them again for a personal party.

I called multiple companies and once I got the details from Painting & Vino, it was no brainer to go with them. Their price is very fair, everyone I talked to was very friendly, and they even work with you if you would like personalized, custom artwork. My original assigned artist was Nicole, who was SUPER awesome to talk logistics with and just knew what questions to ask. She thought of everything. For the event itself, Nicole was unavailable but set up artist, JJ, to be our event instructor. She was awesome too! JJ and Hans were so thorough, very friendly, and very helpful when setting up. They were great with our group and engaging. We'll definitely be reaching out to Painting & Vino again come another painting event!

This Show, put on by the Belly Laugh Productions, is inside the Courtyard Marriott in one of their…read moreconference rooms on the 1st floor, pass the Starbucks. Your options for parking include valet at the hotel, self parking in a parking structure nearby (1st 90 minutes are free) and street parking a few blocks away (if you can find it, and this would be free parking). My husband and I came for a dinner and show last night (6:30 pm show). Making reservations on line was a breeze (be sure to check Groupon for discounted tickets). Check in at the hotel was quick and we were given 2 keepsake glasses. We were placed at table 5 and sat at the only 2 seats left at the table (although you are assigned a table, seating is 1st come/1st served so if you prefer to sit somewhere in particular around a table of 8, be sure to come early). There were only 7 tables with 8 seats per table, which was a good size for this interactive dinner show (you are able to hear the performers/ actors from anywhere in the room). The show is about a princess of Whussels who is thowing this ball (name of this show is called "The Un-Royal Ball") and has several body guards hired to protect her. The story line was pretty disappointing and didn't really have much of a story line. The jokes thrown in were not really that funny and just seemed to have gotten those "oh, ha-ha" chuckles here and there from the audience (which the crowd did seem to be an older crowd). The story line did seem a little predictable as well, and yes there is some raunchiness (so don't bring your kids with you, as this really isn't family friendly as the company website advertise). But the food itself was really good. Often times when you go to a dinner and show type of event, usually the food suffers in terms of taste. But the food was quite good and was catered by the hotel. You have your option of getting chicken, salmon or vegetarian (penne pasta). I went with the chicken and my husband went with the salmon. With this 4 course meal, we had: Bruschetta- This appetizer was delicious and wished I had more. Loved the pesto sauce on the bread and the diced tomatoes (made it quite refreshing). Salad & Dinner Roll- Average dinner salad. There is already 3 different types of salad dressings on the table (raspberry vinaigrette, balsamic vinegar, ranch). The dinner roll was nice and warm and pretty standard. Chicken Dinner- This dish comes with 2 pieces of breaded chicken breast with a white cream sauce, a small scoop of mashed potato and assorted steamed vegetables. The portion size of this dish was quite large. I gave one chicken cutlet to my husband and I ate the other one. I really enjoyed the assorted steamed vegetables and the mashed potato was okay. I was pretty stuffed after I had this meal and really should have only ate half of my food. Salmon Dinner- Just like the chicken dinner, this dish came with a small scoop of mashed potato and steamed vegetables. The salmon itself was a small portion (but would have been find enough for me) but cooked well. But for some reason, this one girl at our table had a huge salmon portion (looked like 3 times the size as my husband's and everyone else at our table who had the salmon too). Chocolate Bundt Cake- I was already too stuffed to eat my dessert so I took my home (don't be afraid to ask for a box, many people took their dessert home too). But I did get a bite of my husband's and it was quite rich and fudge like. Very decadent. There is also water, (unsweetened) ice tea and coffee on the table. If you want alcohol, there is a cash bar. But the line was rather long, as there is only 1 bartender and plenty of people seem to have wanted some libations for the show (so either wait in the long line for your drink or perhaps drink before coming). In the end (the show was from 6:30 pm to 8:50 pm), I had a great meal and a night out on a Saturday with my husband. The show was much to be desired and do not see myself coming back for another one. Service also could have been better.

Where to start. As a late combination Father's Day and Birthday night out, my wife bought tickets…read moreon Groupon. $79 for two for a show and dinner, OK! The $79 deal balloons when they add another $40 for taxes, gratuities ... At the time you redeem you tickets. The venue: The Courtyard in Pasadena is a nice place, clean, hip and valet parking was only $7. The room was laid out in 8 table arrangement. We sat at table 4. In the back. More on that later. There was bar service in the connecting ballroom. Don't know what the prices were for bar, but they had a steady line of traffic. The room's tables were very nicely set for what could have been a more formal dinner.. Was kind off impressed until I realized that virtually none of the setting would be used. The program laid out the night starting with hors d'oeuvres. Being that we were in the back, the hors d'oeuvres never. Made it back to us. I heard they were bruschetta. Not really sure, never got within seeing or smelling range. Water and some weird muddy tasting iced tea was provided. I can't say what kind of iced tea it was, but was reminiscent of washing my mouth out with water after being forced to eat mud pies as a kid. The table was set for coffee service, but no coffee was ever provided or offered during dinner or desert. Water service was slow at best. Hors d'oeuvres down onto the first act! Wow! I would liken the production to a play at a special ed high school. Missed lines, dyslexic delivery, poor timing, meaningless dialog. Then it happened! They moved from an advertised PG-13 into something else. I was mortified to be sitting next to my in-laws. Poorly delivered and tasteless raunchy jokes, not ever really good jokes. However, the "Lion Tamer" joke was the best of the night. While moving at a steady pace, with short acts it seemed not to drag. I guess that is a positive. Salad: Nice proportioned, everyday dinner salad. Nothing bad to say, after all it's salad. Rolls: I thought the rolls were good, probably one of the shining stars out of the food choices for the night. Dinner: Pre-selected choices of chicken, salmon or penne pasta. We had the chicken. Portion was LARGE! Breaded Parmesan crusted breasts, a white garlic sauce on top adorned with squash, carrots and mashed potatoes. Just average, not bad, not great, but not worth the cost. I saw my Father in-law fidgeting with something in his mouth, he pulled out a hair ball, not a hair, but a fully developed hair ball. We notified the service staff, which I'm not sure did any good. The penne pasta and salmon looked good, generous portions. Desert: Pre-fabricated (tasted out of a box) 1x1 cheese cake, garnished with a strawberry and chocolate with raspberry purée. I ate a couple bites and pushed it away, dreaming of a blueberry pie waiting at home. Back to the show. It began to drag as the raunch comedy continued. They were running around, in one door out another delivering meaningless lines. Not sure there was any development beyond the initial plot. Claimed to be from a fictitious country and a ball. Had nothing to do with a ball. My take: A group of college theatrical majors wanting desperately to break into the biz, craft an idea to rent out a hotel ballroom, pack it full of unsuspecting Groupon following customers, put on an ill conceived and developed play all to get a name out and cash in. Sorry. But I cannot recommend this show at this price point. Was very expensive for the level of food, service and production value. There are some great community theaters out there with much better productions and go next door for a dinner in one of then many restaurants that line our city streets. I hope this helps you in your buying decision.

I…read morewent in not knowing what to expect (and definitely not thinking I was "artistic"), but the whole vibe made it easy to relax and just enjoy the process. The atmosphere is welcoming, creative, and fun without feeling intimidating at all. The instructor explains everything step by step, so even if it's your first time painting like me, you'll walk out feeling proud of what you created. It's not just about painting it's about the experience. You get to unplug, laugh, and actually enjoy the moment. I highly recommend Demi Lauren Studio for a date night. It's something different from the usual dinner-and-movie routine, and it gives you time to connect while doing something creative together. Whether it's a first date or time with your partner, this spot makes it memorable. Definitely coming back again.
