What happens if a guest arrives late? Because our parties are based on a schedule, they work best when all guests arrive on time. Those guests coming late may join the party at whatever point it has progressed to. FOR EXAMPLE: The group has already completed the make-up session and has moved on to the dress up, the late guest must skip the make-up and join in the dress up. This is necessary in order to provide the least amount of disruption to the party, and your understanding is appreciated.

Can parents of the guests stay for the party? This is a high-energy party with make-up, dress-up, photo taking, crafts, and lots of movement. If there is ample room without interference we welcome an audience.

Who takes care of a guest if they become ill, are a behavior problem, or do not want to participate? Guests who do not wish to participate will need to be attended to by you. We are not responsible for the behavior of the guests. Fairytale Royalteas is responsible for hosting your party and engaging the guests in constant activity. Good behavior is always promoted, but it is your responsibility to monitor and take charge if a child is not behaving, becomes ill, or does not wish to participate.

Can boys attend the party? We welcome boys at our parties. We have knight costumes and temporary tatoos especially for the boys.

Can siblings of the guests stay? All guests under three years of age must be supervised. We provide many accessories that contain small parts at our parties and they may not be appropriate for very small guests. Please remember that our party packages cover only the guest of honor and their guests. Unfortunately, we will not be able to accommodate unexpected guests or siblings of guests, as we prepare our parties based on the final head count given to us prior to the party. Siblings (of any age), who are not guests of the birthday child, will not be permitted to use any equipment.

Food and Beverages, other than Fairytale Royalteas items and the birthday cake. Because accidents sometimes happen, we ask that no food or beverages are served while the children are in dress-up clothes.

If a child does not show up, do I still pay for that child? Please remember, you will be charged for the final head count you gave prior to the party.

Where is the party held? Parties are typically held in your home or the venue of your choice.
