Whimsical Wishes

25/12/2024

Happy Holidays!!
Thank you so much to all of the families who invited the Snow Queen to share in a little Christmas magic with them!
It was truly such a special day!
Every visit was so special and unique. I went to 12 separate houses, and saw 24 kids total. It was a long day, but so worth it!

Sharing some pictures that I received and love! As always please feel free to send any photos or memories from your visit!! I always love seeing them!
Recommendations, and reviews (on my page or Tuesdays on the Yokosuka SOFA members page) are always appreciated!

Thank you again!! ❄️❄️💕💕⛄⛄

Happy Birthday, Princess!!!
How lucky am I that this is the THIRD Birthday Whimsical Wishes has celebrated with this sweet girl??
It's been such a joy to watch her grow!
She is so creative, imaginative and playful -- An Alice in Wonderland party was the perfect theme for her!

Alice parties in general are also so special to me! I'm always so happy that I added her to my repertoire!

It's been a BUSY month!
Had to share some photos from this absolutely precious Snow White party a couple weeks ago!!
I just adore this group of princesses!
I'm so happy that I could be part of Princess Mei's birthday celebration!
(I'll have to share some videos soon also!)
Snow White is not the most popular princess in my repertoire, and I've done her twice recently! That makes my heart so happy!

Friends who requested Christmas Eve visits with the Snow Queen, I will be emailing you with the schedule today!! Thank you for your patience! It's going to be a very full day, but very magical!!

Hope everyone is having a beautiful holiday season!!
Thank you, as always, for letting me share some magic with you and your families!

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to the Tree Lighting Ceremonies on Ikego and Main Base last week! Loved all of the warm hugs and bright smiles!!

Booking for Christmas Eve visits is going much quicker than I anticipated! If you would like to book a Christmas Eve visit with the Snow Queen, please see my previous post and submit your form ASAP!

Yokosuka Friends!
Booking for Christmas Eve visits with The Snow Queen have officially opened!
https://forms.gle/okjxdfKdV2w4vYVR9
Please complete the form at the link above to book your visit!

$35.00 per visit. $5.00 per additional child(ren) at the visit.
There is no travel fee for Main Base, however additional travel fees may be applied for visits booked off of Main Base.
Your completed form, as well a minimum deposit of $20.00 is required to secure your visit with The Snow Queen.

The pricing and length of these visits is available for Christmas Eve only!
It is a good opportunity to get a visit in, if you wouldn't otherwise be able to afford a party package, or if you are unsure your child is ready for an hour party package.
This also makes a great gift, if you would like to gift this to another family! Or if a family member outside of J*pan would like to gift it to you! The Snow Queen will happily say who requested the visit!

The visits are about 15-20 minutes in length.
The visit includes:
-One character, dressed with special Christmas accessories
-A personalized gift for each child.
-Live singing
-Photo Opportunities
-Memories to last a lifetime!

I am hoping to begin the visits around 11:00 am on Main Base and get to Ikego by early afternoon.
If you live off base, please provide your address and I will do my absolute best to try to get to you! Please note that there may be additional travel fees.
I will do my very best to get to everyone at their requested times. I will map out the requests and send the official schedule by December 18th at the latest.

(If I am unable to accommodate your request, I will refund your deposit.)

Christmas Eve visits are one of my favorite things to do! There is already so much whimsy and excitement in the air. They are truly always the most magical experiences!

Yokosuka friends!
I'm trying to gauge interest on Christmas Eve visits for this year!
It's always one of my favorite things to offer! There is something extra special and magical about these visits!
Multiple families who booked visits last year reached out to me asking if I would do it again!

The visits are about 15-20 minutes in length.
The visit includes:
-One character, dressed with special Christmas accessories
-A personalized gift for one child (there will be a small fee added on for additional children attending)
-Live singing
-Photo Opportunities
-Memories to last a lifetime!

In order to do these visits, and keep the cost low for you, I would need at least 6 families to book.
If I feel there is enough interest, a character will be decided by December 8 and booking will begin at that time.

**Please comment only if you are seriously interested and know you will be available on Christmas Eve for a visit. Let me know the character your child would love to see most on Christmas Eve! (I'm personally leaning towards Belle, but will happily go with the most requested character).**

This is truly one of my favorite things to offer! Please let me know if you have any questions!

This princess will be at both the Ikego and Main Base events!
Please come say hello! We'll be handing out some treats, and, of course, warm hugs! 💕❄️

Sorry I haven't been very active in posting this month!

Gearing up for December events and parties!
Booking for December and January now!
I'm considering offering Christmas Eve visits again this year...more info on that soon!!

Here's a sweet throwback with Portraits by Amaris -- 8 years ago!!
Seemed fitting to share, as Snow White has gained some popularity recently!

"You are amazing! My daughter has brought up how you said you loved her mermaid costume multiple times. You inspire confidence in all these young princesses."

I received this comment and photo the other day, and instantly started tearing up. It is absolutely my goal to make sure that every child I interact with feels valued, confident, and seen. I'm so happy that this is recognized, even in short interactions at events!

Forever grateful for every special and magical moment. ✨💕

Thank you for sharing, Katie!

Loved seeing so many friends at Spooktacular on Friday!!
As always, if you would like to share any pictures or stories from the event, please feel free to!!

Thank you to those who already shared photos with me!
And a special shout out to this wicked fairy! I'm so glad she only used her bubble magic, and didn't put curses on anyone! ;)

21/10/2024

I'm so glad this book loving princess has been so popular here! Looking forward to even more upcoming events and with her!

I have been starting to get requests for December!
If you would like to book a December party, please contact me soon. 💕

Coming to the SPOOKTACULAR FALL FESTIVAL next week, and want a break from anything too spooky? Bring your little one over to meet Sleeping Beauty!
We'll be doing meet and greets, handing out candy, and taking photos on the baseball field - near the pumpkin patch and maze!

Keep your eye out for this wicked fairy too - she WAS invited, and will be nearby (not TOO close, for our little ones!) doing some bubble magic!
(Please note the wicked fairy will be another local performer -- not the lovely actress pictured here!)

Hope to see you and your little princesses, princes, fairies, etc!

In addition to some big events recently, I'm also so happy that I've attended Birthday parties with the sweetest birthday princesses!
I truly love how every party is so unique and special. Every birthday wish whispered in my ear, every time my hand is so gently held, and of course with every warm hug, I am reminded how lucky I am to get to do what I do.
Thank you to these families for letting me share in these celebrations with you!
❄️💕❄️💕❄️
