Wishing Well Entertainment

this review been overdue! I hired Snow Queen Elsa and Captain America for my kids dual birthday party at a indoor playground. Allison and Matt are absolutely fantastic. My guest love them so much, they started using Wishing Well for their kids parties. I definitely will do another dual party next year with different characters base on my kids interest. btw, Allison aka Queen Elsa is one of the prettiest Elsa i’ve seen. I been to so many parties that had Elsa but my party (Allison) was THE best! also all the mama went crazy over Captain America, Matt was wonderful! i think all the adults had more fun than the kids. so glad i found Wishing Well Entertainment, looking forward to the next event.

We chose wishing well entertainment for our son’s first birthday party. We had Bathero and let me tell you he did an amazing job! He was the highlight of our party and he made sure everyone was participating in the activities he did.
My son absolutely loved him as well! All the kids loved him and he stayed in character throughout the whole time! His costume was legit and very cool!
Wishing well entertainment is very professional and they are quick to answer any of your questions. They are also very kind and friendly with great customer service!
We will be getting our awesome characters from this company for every birthdays or other events we have :)
I highly recommend and will recommend to everyone I know!

I just can NOT rave enough about these princesses and this company! I have twins, who are just turning five, and we have been to a LOT of princess parties this year. I Unilocaled my heart out trying to find a stellar princess after witnessing the wide variety of talent that comes from other companies, all at a similar price. Wishing Well has the highest ratings and the reviews here really sell it. Even with all that, I really couldn’t believe how exceptional they were!
We got Elsa and Rapunzel, each girl picked their own, and it is not cheap– as you know if you’ve been pricing them. Studies show that experiences are more valuable in happiness than «things» so we spent the money, and IT WAS AWESOME! Wishing Well was very responsive via e-​mail, and we were lucky to get an Elsa with fairly short notice. They worked schedules to accommodate us with the 2 entertainers, and we got a discount for ordering two, (FYI). I had almost 20 kids so I opted for an hour and a half, which wasn’t much more than the hour, and the time flew by! It was just enough time for lots of fun and singing, face painting for all, pics and cake. The best part was how enraptured the kids were. The parents had a chance to talk and eat and relax, even me– the hostess (!?). They were great at wrangling the kids ages 3 – 5, getting the boys involved, and keeping it on time. The singing was BEAUTIFUL.
All the moms wanted their info (they should have brought cards!) and I am glad to share. I hope they all book Wishing Well this year so we have lots more fun!
Don’t go ANYWHERE ELSE!!! Seriously.
Also, they came in and were rushed by the kids, of course, stayed in character the whole time, were so sweet, and really were interactive and amazing.
Thanks Wishing Well! Keep up the great work.

Hired both batman and batgirl for my daughter’s 7^th birthday. Everyone loved them. Even the adults wanted pictures with them. Batgirl is so beautiful and batman played his role perfectly. I’d book them again in a heartbeat. Thank you.

Wishing Well Entertainment was absolutely fantastic! I hired Marilyn Monroe as a surprise at my fiancé’s bachelor party dinner! She was a huge hit and all the guests LOVED her!
Marilyn never broke character and guests appreciated her authentic costume! Marilyn was as professional as they come and was able to weave in a bio I provided to Wishing Well Entertainment.
I will always book talent from Wishing Well Entertainment! The process was so easy! I highly recommend them but book as early as you can since they book up very very quickly!

Best decision of my life. I love planning parties and Kalinda made it as easy as possible! Very accommodating and responsive since day 1. She will reply to your email any time of the day. Even at midnight! She is attentive to every request and tried to fulfill each one. Of course, Tinkerbell was the loveliest I’ve ever seen! She played with the kids for two whole hours and parents didn’t need to worry. They were very well taken cared of and entertained from age 2 – 13! I definitely recommend wishing well to anyone.

We had Anna and Elsa join us for my daughter’s 5^th birthday and it was a wonderful experience! From their arrival, the story with magical elements, face painting and tattoos and multiple games they played with the girls made party so much fun! They were both wonderful and I highly recommend them — I saw them at another birthday party and the experience there was the same — fantastic!

With over 100 positive reviews, I decided to go with Wishing Well Entertainment for my son’s Superhero themed birthday party. I went through every similar Unilocal service and scrutinized the costumes, makeup, etc. I honestly couldn’t find a single thing wrong with Wishing Well. I called them and was sad to find out they book about 1 – 2 months in advance. Nevertheless, I checked in often and grabbed any cancelations or open spots that I could. We ended up booking: Spiderman, Captain America, and Supergirl (Tom, Matt, and Alanna).
Kalinda– Was super helpful and professional in helping me book my event. I asked a hundred questions and she was always very polite. I bugged her for cancellations and she kept me well informed. She gives great instructions and handles everything. I look forward to booking with her again!
Captain America– This man was amazing. Not only was he handsome, but he wore a leather captain America suit in our 85 °F outdoor event. Brave soul! His leather costume looked like something out of a movie set. He also had a big metal shield. It was actually heavy and the kids took turns trying to hold it. The Captain had a soft spot for our tiniest heroes. He even read a book to my 20 month old niece. She was mesmerized. My 18 month old son is shy and doesn’t like people holding him. But he willingly went to the Captain and they walked together. Loved it. He also played games with the kids and had the perfect personality blend of dry humor and kindness.
Supergirl– Alanna is such a beautiful woman. I swear her eyes even sparkled. She called me for directions (our address wouldn’t show up on most maps) and stayed in character during our entire call. When we hung up, I knew it was going to be an amazing party. Supergirl comes with the bonus of face painting. The little girls at our party created their own girls only super hero league and she painted pretty masks on all of them. She smiled the entire time and was incredibly sweet. So much so, that the mommy’s were commenting that they wonder what she’s like in real life. We couldn’t picture it. All we saw was a sweet, bubbly, happy person. You know someone is an amazing actress when you can’t picture them as anything else.
Spiderman– he was the party favorite (mostly little boys) because he was funny. Really funny. When he arrived, he tiptoed towards the park. I had spotted him and could not stop laughing. He cartwheeled from tree to tree. Hid behind them. Jumped, rolled, and climbed. Hid behind a woman walking her dog (she laughed). I am amazed that Spiderman behaved like… well, Spiderman!!! When the kids spotted him, there was squealing and shrieking. Spiderman made funny and witty comments, true to character. It felt really good that his personality even entertained the parents. There was hard laughter from everyone. It was so hot and he was full of energy. I honestly think he had more energy than our crazy 5 year olds!
My son is still talking about his party a month later. He honestly feels like he knows the superheroes on a «personal level». He will often say things like, «my friends Spiderman and Captain America told me…» My 3 year old is so enchanted by the whole thing too. We will have to find excuses to hire them all again. Do they babysit? Lol
Almost all of the parents at this party have commented on how amazing the actors were. I’ve given 8 referrals this month alone. It was that big of a hit and I sincerely recommend you book them for your next party. They are worth every cent!!!
P. S. They show up playing their own Superhero grand entrance music. They have a suitcase with toys, face painting supplies, crafts, etc. And they gave tattoos that the kids were sporting. They also gifted my son with a Superhero hat that they all signed. He is obsessed with his hat! I am amazed that on top of everything else, they gave our birthday boy an awesome baseball hat and certificate!
Thank you Tom, Matt, and Alanna!!!

I had a hard time with this review because I was a little unhappy with how my reservation was handled. They emailed me a week before the event saying I hadn’t confirmed when I had 30 days prior at the time of making my deposit, and since their contract strictly says if you don’t confirm they will not honor your reservation I began to panic but it ended up being ok.
The event experience earned them the five stars for this review. Ariel’s costume and make up were as real as a Disneyland park princess. The kids loved the activities and taking pictures with her. She was part of our birthday song/​cake cutting and family pictures.
I would definitely recommend and plan to use them again in the future!

We hired Beauty (Danielle) to visit my daughter’s birthday party. She was amazing. Stunning dress, makeup and hair. Even the way she moved her hands screamed princess. She had a beautiful singing voice and mesmerized the children.
It was amazing to have the kids entertained and not have to worry about them and if they were having fun. One of the girls at the party said it was the best day of her life lol.
Danielle stayed in character from the moment she arrived to the moment she left.
We will definitely be using Wishing Well Entertainment for our future parties.

I hired cinderella for my daughter’s 3^rd bday. my daughter loved her … cinderella did such an awesome job she was in character till she drove off
Deff worth my money
She had so many activities for my guest
It even felt like she was with us longer then expected …

We had Elsa today for our daughter’s second birthday and she was amazing! The performer (Alanna) was incredible with the children and kept them entertained the whole time! We did story time and singing, dancing, coloring, and face painting which were all fantastic. She was so well prepared and had an amazing entrance into the party with Frozen music. Better than any character we have interacted with at Disneyland… a truly magical day to have her here! Thank you Wishing Well Entertainment!

We had Cinderella come for our daughter’s second birthday. She was beautiful and stayed in character the entire time. Despite the short attention span of two year olds she didn’t miss a beat. We did story telling, singing, dancing, etiquette lessons, magic tricks, face painting, cake cutting and she even pushed my little girl around in her new car stroller. She was super talented and fast at face painting. Many friends commented on what a spectacular job Cinderella did. Easily could have been a true Disney production character. I loved the service that wishing well provided and would not hesitate to use them again and recommend to family and friends. See posted pics.

This is long overdue. I will never need to search for another company for character entertainment for my kids’ birthday party. They know how to entertain kids and its worth every penny! The kids were in awe of Elsa. When she sang, all the little girls were in heaven. It was magical.

Sleeping Beauty (Alanna) did an amazing job! Best money spent! My daughters and their friends all had a wonderful and magical time!!! She has a beautiful voice and was so sweet.
Kalinda was always quick to respond to my questions and emails.
Would definitely use this company again and would highly recommend to anyone!
Thank you again for such a wonderful memory!

We contacted Kalinda in such short notice. She was very quick to respond to our emails. Which already was a major plus!!!
The party was a success! Dustin (Spiderman) went way beyond our expectations. It was windy and we got a little bit of rain that day, but the kids never even noticed the crazy weather because they had a great time with Spiderman! We had issues with setting up at the park because of the wind but the kids never noticed all these «minor» details because they were having a blast training with a superhero. He was great communicating with the kids. I can tell because i can see them all having fun and rolling in laughter each time Spiderman says something silly. My family and other guests were super impressed. Thank you Kalinda and your company for making my daughters party a memorable one!

I am so happy I made the decision to book Queen Elsa and Princess Aurora for my little princess’s 5^th birthday. I researched many different companies looking for the best price and best reviews. Wishing Well Entertainment is absolutely worth every penny. You will not be sorry. They stayed in complete character from the minute they strolled in to the minute they left. There outfits were gorgeous and authentic looking. Many of our guests asked if they came straight from Disneyland. They sang, had story time, did a magic show, face painted, took lots and lots of pictures w all my guests and sang Happy Birthday. My daughter was over the moon. All of my guests young and old were impressed and entertained.
My only regret is that I booked for only an hour. Next time I will definitely book for much longer. I didn’t anticipate that the adults would want a picture w the characters.

My son’s favorite movie has been Frozen since he was a few months old. He absolutely loves the Snow Queen, Elsa! His first Birthday came up and I decided to do a Frozen theme. My sister had used Wishing Well Entertainment a few years back for my nephews birthday and Buzz Lightyear was a Huge hit! My nephew still talks about it to this day! You never really know how these things will work out. We had kids of all ages and genders and my son was super cranky. I honestly didn’t know what to expect.
When Elsa arrived I turned into a five year old! Her costume was immaculate and she was completely in character. She brought so many fun activities with her in pretty boxes. Face painting, story time, and even a special certificate for my son! All the kids were sincerely enchanted. She sang! She had the boys and girls hanging on her every word! My son was in love! It made his party. Even the older boys got their faces painted like pirates. I got my face painted too because, well, I was five again.
If you want to make your party– use Wishing Well. Memories were created that will live in photo albums and memories.
Our friends and family are still raving about how spectacular Elsa was. I will definitely use this company again! The experience was completely magical!

We hired Wishing Well Entertainment for our daughter’s Frozen themed 3^rd birthday party. Kalinda was very easy to work with and responded back to my emails immediately, which I really appreciated. We hired them as Elsa and Anna and we were not disappointed! They came a bit early (which was great) and immediately engaged all the little 2 to 4 year old princesses (and some princes) with a story time that included acting and singing. Their voices were amazing and they never broke character the entire time. So many mothers came up to me and told me they were the best Elsa/​Anna.
After the story time, we had photo time and they posed for the extended photo session flawlessly. The characters at Disneyland usually only take photos for 30 minutes but these girls didn’t have a single break for the entire 2 hours we had them scheduled for.
Following the photo session Elsa and Anna painted all of the girls faces and was able to remember all of the little girls’ names all the way up to the end. I don’t even know all the kids’ names and they are my friends’ kids, hahahaha!
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Wishing Well Entertainment for your kid’s birthday party. They are professional, talented, and are great with children. I will definitely hire them again next year!

Every summer Loyola Law School hosts a staff and faculty picnic on campus. Many employees bring their children and/​or grandchildren. My co-​worker thought that having pirates come to the party would be a great way to spice up the picnic and do something that has never been done before. I will be honest, I was a bit hesitant at first but honestly it was the highlight of the event! The pirates showed up on time (actually a little early which I appreciated), were so flexible, energetic, fully in character, and everyone LOVED them — adults and children alike!
We have received countless messages of compliments and gratitude for the tremendous event — and a large part of the success is due to the pirate visitors we had. They mingled with the guests, lead a treasure hunt and taught sword fighting skills to the children, and posed for photos with children and adults. I even saw a young girl that was rather shy, and she was participating while holding Kelly’s hand. I am not exaggerating when I say that they were truly the stars of the party!
I highly recommend Wishing Well Entertainment to anyone looking to brighten up a party to make it extra special.
