When Disney had their company party this year, they hired the Happily Ever Laughter Faeries!
Happily Ever Laughter's characters and activities transform celebration themes into parties that not one single guest will forget.
From the first moment during the reservation process (even our booking SecreFaeries are in character), you'll be immersed in our magic.
On the big day, our characters (Colorful Faeries, Friendly Pirates, Shimmering Mermaids, and even a brand new Super Heroine character!) arrive armed with engaging activities to draw out even the most shy of guests. The amount of photos that we get back from parents with grandpa painted as a rainbow tiger is staggering *laugh*.
We perform at private birthday celebrations, store openings, and even large corporate gatherings all over California. One of our favorite performances to date was when Pixar hired 6 of unique Characters for their own employee family day celebration, 3 years in a row!
If you're looking for a face painter, we are the painters that will change the way you remember face painting. Every guest will want to meet our charismatic performers and have a turn when they see our over the top costumes and approachable smiles. We use the fanciest and most professional paint on the market, and are ahead of the curve with what is popular in the world of Face Painting.
Hoping to have your child's entire school class entertained (ahhh!!!!!)? That is where we *really* shine. All of our engaging group activities (Magic Shows, Puppet Shows, Dance Lessons, Parachute Games, Sing Alongs with Instruments) were designed by professional teachers and actors. I have seen countless groups of children's attention gripped for our entire visit.
It has been a blast creating Happily Ever Laughter over the last 10 years. We've grown to 50 performers and perform at over 400 events each month. We can't wait to show you why we've received 250 five star Yelp reviews, 7 years of Bay Area Parent Magazine awards, and invitations from A-list actors for their own families celebrations.
Out with the ordinary, and in with the Faerie!
Party on!
Ribbons and Roses,
Fae Diddle Diddle
& the Faeries of Happily Ever Laughter
Fae Diddle Diddle, our founding faerie, rests her head in the Santa Cruz redwoods, way up high in the mountains.
The inspiration for starting Happily Ever Laughter came when Fae noticed all the characters provided at parties were the same characters on the lunch boxes, TV, and movie screens. Fae wanted to remind children that they don't all have to be Snow White, Elsa, or Cinderella, but are welcome to have their own unique view on what a princess or any imaginary character could be. She understands that each child is different, and that is why her characters are different. Her clowns don't have red noses or scary wigs, and her princesses don't look like Sleeping Beauty.
They are the characters from her own imagination.
Over the last 10 years, Happily Ever Laughter has now grown to not only inspire children, but also the performers who work here. HELP has grown to almost 50 tightly knit employees, who can now say they actually got to be a Faerie Princess or an Elf when they grew up.
Being a Faerie is more than just wearing the wings. It's 'out with the ordinary, and in with the Faerie'. The performers here conquer all aspects of life by using what they've learned as HELP Faeries and Elves. From learning to manage stressful situations with grace, to spontaneously entertaining all the children in the line at the DMV, we have all grown to live life every day with a Faerie spirit.
Even as performers retire their wings and fly away into the human world, their Faerie spirit remains. We've seen past HELP performers live life at an accelerated pace after mastering how to instill happiness into every moment. They've become movie producers, PhDs, parents, actresses on the silver screen, entrepreneurs, professors...and all before they ever expected to before they worked at HELP. They've become pillars in their communities, and inspirations to all the future performers.
Fae dreams of growing HELP to become a model for how to create a positive and non competitive workplace. She wishes to see the rules that HELP performers live by spread on a larger scale. Visions of Faerie Youth Empowerment courses in schools to Faerie Team Building in the tech land. The possibilities are endless. Especially when you have wings *wink*.
