We had the pleasure of working with Howel Mayer at Parties4Peanuts in Saddle Brook, NJ for our recent Luau event, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The face painter and balloon artist provided through Parties4Peanuts were incredibly professional, friendly, and talented. Their face painting designs were beautiful, creative, and a huge hit with both children and adults. The balloon creations were equally impressive, bringing smiles to everyone's faces and adding so much fun to the event. The entire process was seamless, and it was clear that Howel takes great pride in providing high-quality entertainers who are both skilled and engaging. We highly recommend Parties4Peanuts to anyone looking for exceptional entertainment for their event. We look forward to working with them again in the future!

We were very happy with the princess character we chose. Kids enjoyed the time together and parents were able to relax during this time :) Also, the team was very accommodating when we had to change the party to the following day due to weathers.

Thank you so much, Maribel! We appreciate the kind words. Would you be able to go on our Google and/or Yelp pages and post the review there as well? That would be very helpful. Thanks again, Howell

We had such a great experience with this entertainment company for my daughter’s party! Howell was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process and was always easy to get in touch with whenever I had questions. Everything was smooth and stress-free from beginning to end. Kaitlyn, who came to entertain the kids was absolutely wonderful. Even when the kids were a little shy and not very engaged at first, she went above and beyond to get them involved and excited. Before long all the kids were participating and having fun. She was so sweet, patient, and energetic the entire time. Most importantly my daughter laughed nonstop and enjoyed every single second of it. Seeing her so happy made the day even more special. I truly appreciate the effort and kindness they both put into making the party a success. Highly recommend!
