For a basic package of any one (1) service, we charge $150 for the first hour and $65 for every 30 minutes to follow. (Please see pricing below for multiple services). Due to the extra sanitary measures we now take, please allow 1 hour per 12-15 kids, 10-13 kids/guests if booking Henna Tattoos for your services. (Henna Tattoos are not recommended for children under the age of 7, since they may forget about it and it may smudge, ruining the design and/or staining any clothes that it may come in contact with.) Please add at least 30 minutes to your overall service time for each additional service. One artist will be provided (unless requested otherwise in which additional charges will apply) and will provide each service simultaneously throughout the time allotted, depending on the guest’s preference.

Payment Details

Aside from a Non-Refundable Retainer/Reservation Fee required upon booking in order to hold your reservation (which will count towards your full balance), we require being paid in cash only within the last hour of our services or upon arrival (also, make note that we typically do not carry cash or change on us. So, please have an exact amount that you are giving including tip if applicable). 9 times out of 10, we will have another party to attend directly after yours. As a courtesy, please have your balance ready or paid by the end of our time so that we can leave promptly if necessary. We would not want to have to interrupt cake cutting, piñata, or anything else that may be in progress in order to get paid and, therefore, will not be able to leave at the designated time. Venmo is also an accepted form of balance payment, but let us know ahead of time that you would like to pay this way so we can give you the artist’s payment info prior to the event.

Personal Checks are not preferred, but will ONLY be accepted if the requested cash funds available or agreed upon ahead of time is unavailable (specifically for large companies, etc.). NOTE: If the check bounces from NSF (Insufficient Funds), the bank fee of $35 with the total cost plus a 5% card fee will be invoiced to you. If neither Cash nor check are available when payment is due (which may lead for me to be late to another client's party), a 5% card fee with a 3% convenience fee will be added to your remaining balance payment for a card transaction. Any other form of payment must be agreed upon beforehand and will not be accepted otherwise. 5% will be added to your invoice for every 24 hours unpaid as a form of late fee. BY PAYING THE NON-REFUNDABLE RETAINER FEE YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE TO THESE TERMS.

Additional Artists

Professional Artist(s): We have many artists throughout San Diego that we love working with, all of which do many of the services that we provide as well as other services like Caricatures, Magic, Clowning, Princesses, Games, and the like. If you are wanting a second artist to accompany you to the event, please note that pricing per artist will be the same for each additional artist added, including an additional Distance fee (if applicable) depending on the second artist's location.

Professional Photographer/Videographer: I have a Photographer who I love using for birthday parties and events and, if available, can provide photography and/or videography for your event at a reasonable price. To see further details and pricing click here.

Let me know if you would like to add an additional artist to your package and I will check their availability! Please specify in your booking form what kind of artist you would like (whether professional or apprentice).
