Real Belle Parties
Jessica is absolutely PHENOMENAL from the second she arrives until the very last hug goodbye! … 💛👑🌹
Three ways to invite her
Pick the visit that fits your party
All include up to 15 children, $10 for each additional child. Travel not included in base pricing. Keepsake portraits, what every party includes, and common questions →
Your choice of 15-60 minutes · Up to 15 children included in pricing
- ★ Active games — classic childhood games with a themed twist, because enjoying something they already love invites children to feel confident and connected
- ★ All their favorite songs, woven into conversation and throughout the games — and sung together face-to-face
- ★ Photo ops at the end, because by then they are hugging a friend, not smiling on cue
- ★ Silver is simply this: friendship with their hero, while their favorite movie comes to life before their eyes
90 minutes · Up to 15 children included in pricing
- ★ Every child goes home with a printed 4x6 portrait. A party favor that's meaningful and personal.
- ★ Portraits are taken near the end of the party, after we become friends. Taking a picture together is a playful experience on its own!
- ★ Portrait equipment requires no outlet and has a small footprint with no cords for kids to trip on — it works well literally anywhere!
- ★ A soft-focus background — so your party space will photograph well, whether it is decorated or not
- ★ Edited digitals follow within two weeks, included in the package price
- ★ Everything in Silver
120 minutes · Up to 15 children included in pricing
- ★ Your choice: makeovers, or decorating a frame for the portrait
- ★ Makeovers include no-mess iridescent biodegradable glitter roots, face gems, and rainbow clip-in tinsel — fancy and one of a kind.
- ★ A high quality metal beaded best-friends bracelet, because a tangible, wearable token of their new friendship is a gift that will keep the memories close
- ★ Marked with the character initial, so they can look down and remember whose friend they are
- ★ Thirty more minutes together, and everything in Silver and Gold

Jessica is absolutely PHENOMENAL from the second she arrives until the very last hug goodbye! 💖 She attended our daughter’s birthday party as Princess Belle in December and our daughter still talks about her almost daily! From her quick communication, to the ease of booking, to the tiny details that made the birthday girl and her guests feel extra special, our first experience with Jessica was even more magical than we could have dreamed of! We can’t wait to invite her to more events in the future! As our daughter has said over and over, “BEST BIRTHDAY PARTY EVER!” Princess Belle will always hold a special place in her heart! 💛👑🌹
J Jackie M. on Facebook We had Belle join us for our four-year-old daughter’s birthday party, and it couldn’t have been more magical! She did an amazing job connecting with every child and constantly adapting to make sure they had a wonderful time. It’s been almost a month, and my daughter still talks about how much fun she had practically every day. I would highly recommend Parties with Character!
M Marika G. on Google We had the absolute best experience having Rumi join us for my daughter’s 5th birthday party over the summer! She was wonderful from start to finish and did such an amazing job bringing the character to life. My daughter and her friends were so excited to see Rumi! She was engaging, sweet, energetic, and did a fantastic job keeping the kids entertained. She made the birthday feel extra special and created memories that my daughter will never forget. The attention to detail and commitment to the character were incredible! We would highly recommend booking Jeff for any birthday party or special event. She truly made my daughter’s 5th birthday magical!
M Megan K. on Google My daughter was SO HAPPY to see Elsa she cannot stop talking about her. Gave her such a good experience with her favorite Disney character
K Katelyn L. on Facebook My daughter had the absolute BEST time meeting Belle at the Blumen Gardens Tea party! Bell was so sweet and made her feel so special!!! We will definitely be booking for her birthday in February!! Dream come true!
M Meghan D. on Google Everyone loved Bell!!
L Lindsay E. on Google Rumi was absolutely amazing. A lot of kids were in attendance of my daughter’s 8th birthday and Rumi did an awesome job of being fully engaged with all the kids. They all felt seen and enjoyed everything from the cool photos that Rumi instantly printed, to the games she played with them. Don’t even get me started on the singing. It was a concert of little ones singing their favorite songs. Thnx Rumi. Would highly recommend.
D David A. on Google She made more daughters birthday the best day of her life, she never once broke character. She event tended to my special needs nephew 10/10
D Daekwon M. on Google Belle made the tea party absolutely magical!!! So engaging with the kids, absolutely amazing!
M Meghan D. on Facebook We met Belle at the Geneva library and had such a great experience!
J Jessica F. on Google Jessica was amazing! We had Rumi come to my daughter’s birthday party, and she not only dressed the part perfectly but was fully in character the whole time - in the conversations she had with the kids, and with singing their favorite K-pop demon hunter songs! The kids were singing along and dancing, and she even taught them some simple dance moves to do together. She added such a positive energy to the party and was so adaptable in working with the kids and helping with the party. As my first time working with her, I was glad to see she was communicative, timely, and just so easy to work with. Highly recommend!
L LM on Google We have used Parties with Character for the past 2 years for our daughter's 4th and 5th birthday parties. It is truly a magical experience that captures the true happiness of a child. Jessica portrays the characters with such enthusiasm and passion. We can't wait for our next party!
