What this party includes

Little Sparkly Princess brings dress-up and mini spa activities together in a two-hour birthday package. The listed costume activities include gowns, tiaras, wands and guided costume changes. Mini mani-pedis, lip glitter, gentle eyeliner, face and hair glitter, and glitter tattoos are also listed. It is a dress-up experience, not a promise of a visiting princess performer.

Start by asking your child which parts they want to try. Share relevant information about the children with the team, especially if anyone may need an adjustment or would rather not have a treatment. The package does not list a fixed age range, so ask about suitability for your particular group rather than assuming every younger sibling can participate.

Prepare the guest list and budget

Write down the expected number of participating children, including siblings. The package page lists group tiers for six or seven children and eight to ten children, with additional-child pricing for parties of eleven to sixteen. Check the current prices and HST before confirming your budget. Ask separately about adults attending or staying during the party.

Hair styling, face painting and themed loot bags are optional paid extras, not automatic inclusions in this package. If one of these matters to your child, request it when arranging the booking. A gallery photograph may show an extra selected for a previous celebration, so use the written package details to decide what you are purchasing.

Tell guests about dress-up and treatments

Explain the activities on the invitation so parents know that dress-up and mini spa treatments are planned. Gowns, tiaras and wands are listed in the package, so check with the team before asking families to bring costumes. Confirm practical clothing and footwear guidance rather than creating a dress code guests do not need.

Send the waiver instructions supplied for the booking and discuss relevant allergies or sensitivities before the day. Tell the team if a child may be uncomfortable with a product, costume change or activity. Agree on arrangements directly rather than promising an alternative treatment without checking whether it is available.

Arrange food, cake and personal decorations

Parents arrange the food and cake. The package details list a digital invitation, tablecloths, paper plates, cups, napkins, cutlery, water, juice and food and cake time. Check these arrangements with the team before buying another set of tableware or booking a food delivery. Pass on allergy information before orders are placed.

If your child wants a particular colour scheme, cake topper or decoration, ask what can be brought and when it can be set up. Do not assume that early access or additional decorating time is included. Put the agreed arrival and collection times on invitations so the activity, food arrangements and family schedules fit together.

On the day and after the party

Keep the booking details, guest count and agreed extras available when you arrive. Let the team know about any last-minute change, including a child joining or leaving early. Confirm how personal belongings and any brought-in decorations will be collected. Allow the team to organise the activity order rather than promising guests a separate schedule.

Before leaving, gather the items you brought and check that children have their belongings. If you need to change the booking beforehand, use the customer dashboard or contact Hily’s and wait for the change to be confirmed. Review the Little Sparkly Princess page below for the current inclusions, prices and booking options.
