Feedback

  • He was great! -- Elizabeth T, Haverford, PA, 10/30/2011
  • Jim was very professional. He was on time and even volunteered to stay a little longer if there were some kids waiting in line. The kids were having a great time with the balloons and some of the parents were very impressed with his skills. I would definitely use him again. -- Alan C, Norristown, PA, 11/6/2011
  • Jim was a hit with the kids and adults. Very Professional would recommend him for any party! -- Pat W, Exton, PA, 12/16/2011
  • FABULOUS! Jim was the perfect addition to my son's first birthday party. Not only is he talented but extremely patient with all 30 of my excited "under-the-age-of-ten" guests! Jim made sure every last child had a balloon sculpture, even those little ones who were apprehensive at first. I highly recommend Jim for your next event ... and his octopus balloon! -- Toni L, Drexel Hill, PA, 1/22/2012
  • Jim came before his actual time and stayed till the very end even though he had another party to go to. All the kids were mesmerized with his balloon twisting skills. My party was a big hit. Highly recommended!!! M Mehta. -- Mansi M, Lansdale, PA, 2/19/2012
  • Very punctual, kid friendly Would definitely use him again -- David D, Lawrenceville, NJ, 2/12/2012
  • I hired Balloons by Jim for my sons 4th birthday party. There were 19 kids age ranging from 1-8. EVERYONE loved Jim, even the adults. Days later kids from the party were still talking about thier balloons and the balloon guy Jim. I was worried about the extra expense for my sons birthday party but let me tell you, he is worth every penny. My 7 year old nephew even went up to my husband and said, Uncle, whatever you are paying this guy, give him $5 more, lol! I would HIGHLY recommend Jim for your next party. -- Denise P, Garnet Valley, PA, 3/4/2012
