Amy’s Princess Parties, Columbus, Ohio
The moment the character sweeps into the room, the kids close ranks around the tulle and tiara. A quick hello turns into a sing-along, a few giggles become “princess training,” and before you know it the guest of honor is standing a little taller for a simple coronation that makes the whole party feel official.
Amy’s Princess Parties is a mobile character entertainment company founded by local performer Amy Kavelaras and based in Westerville. The team brings the show to your living room, clubhouse, or park shelter anywhere around greater Columbus. Packages are time-based, so you can book a short meet-and-greet or a longer, more structured visit. The 30-, 60-, and 90-minute options build from songs and photos to a full routine with “royalty rules,” light games, and a birthday moment that puts the child at center stage.
The character roster covers the big fairy-tale icons and storybook favorites alongside superheroes, mascots, and even a mermaid. Princess parties tend to be the most structured, while superhero and mascot visits are kept looser to match the character. Either way, the performer leads the flow so parents can host without stage-managing every minute. If you’re planning for family who can’t attend in person, there are virtual options like short live calls or personalized videos to add the surprise from afar.
Because it’s a traveling show, the experience is meant to slot neatly into a home or venue party. The performer arrives in character, folds into your schedule, sings Happy Birthday on request, and makes time for group and individual photos before a gracious exit. The company notes it typically travels within about a half-hour of the I‑270 loop and can go farther by arrangement. Booking is straightforward and handled in advance, so you can nail down a character, time window, and add‑ons without guesswork.
