Having been completely obsessed with Taylor Swift since before it was cool (since roughly 2008 if you must know – I was about 12 years old!), I’ve lived through every one of her Eras whilst growing up through my own. So when I was presented with an opportunity to portray my idol and make some mini Swifties’ dreams come true, I couldn’t believe how lucky I was!

I’ve been a full-time Children’s Entertainer with Snow Princess Parties for many years now, bringing fairytale characters to life every weekend – so when I received a request to portray a certain blonde-haired songstress I was over the moon! Getting to sing her beloved songs that I’ve known by heart since secondary school, and seeing the look of awe on mini Swifties’ faces when I agree to swap a friendship bracelet with them, is an absolute honour!

As a singer-songwriter myself with a degree in Popular Music (www.annarenaemusic.com), I have frequently been compared to Taylor when on stage with my guitar singing songs written about my own life – and each time someone mentions her name to me, I couldn’t ask for a bigger compliment!

When in costume, it’s always funny to have customers approach me to ask if I’m really American (only to find out I’m actually from Lancashire and have a Northern British accent!), but the fact that I actually *am* half-American means the accent comes naturally to me, and can be very convincing! Being such a long-time fan of Miss Swift, and having attended three different tours and knowing all her lore, also means that I can *swiftly* answer any questions children may throw at me, to truly keep their belief alive! 

Seeing little ones twirling in their sparkly outfits, singing and dancing along with me to songs that have guided me through my life truly feels like a full-circle moment, and makes me feel honoured beyond my wildest dreams!

Hosting a children’s party in Winchester?

Finding the perfect venue for your little one’s big day can be a challenge, considering everything from parking and location to indoor space and facilities! Here at Snow Princess Parties, we’ve attended parties in Winchester for many years now, so we know a thing or two about which venues are fit to celebrate a young Prince/Princess! 

Here are our top 5 recommendations, based on our personal experiences of hosting magical birthday parties in Winchester. 

1. Itchen Abbas & Avington Village Hall

Itchen Abbas & Avington Village Hall, Main Road, Itchen Abbas, Winchester, SO21 1BQ

This venue is not only practical, but beautiful too! There are two different halls on offer, to suit the size and requirements of your party – we’ve hosted parties in both, and never hesitate to recommend it.

With plenty of parking, easy access, lots of natural light, a very spacious main hall and a large outdoor play area, you really can’t go wrong with hosting your party here!

2. The Log Cabin (11th Winchester Scout Group)

The Log Cabin, Stockbridge Rd, Winchester, SO22 6RH

This is one of our most-frequented venues in Winchester, and is perfect for smaller-scale or budget-friendly parties. 

Parking is slightly limited and the road turning can sometimes be easy to miss, however the venue itself has a good amount of space, a fully equipped kitchen, and even a small outdoor play area for the children to run around in after the party!

3. Littleton Millennium Memorial Hall

Littleton Millennium Memorial Hall, The Hall Way, Littleton, Winchester, SO22 6QL

This venue is the perfect place for hosting your special event, with lots of natural light and doors that open onto a large outdoor patio and cricket field. The spacious main hall can easily cater to a large-scale event, and has a fully-equipped kitchen.

There are lots of modern amenities – including controllable lighting and wifi – meaning that you can also capture some perfect TikTok/Instagram content throughout your party!

4. Hursley Parish Hall

Hursley Parish Hall, 50 Main Rd, Hursley, Winchester, SO21 2JY

Having been recently refurbished, this venue is bright and spacious, with every amenity you could need to make your party magical! There is a larger hall and a smaller meeting room available for booking, along with a small outdoor play area. 

The hall is regularly used throughout the week for nursery schools and community activities, and it’s easy to see why!

5. Owslebury Parish Hall

Owslebury Village Parish Hall, Main Rd, Owslebury, Winchester, SO21 1LN

Although this venue is slightly further afield, we’ve had great experiences hosting parties here – the interior is very nicely designed and well-laid out, with a bright hallway for your guests to walk through before they enter the party room so they can receive a royal welcome!

There are 3 different rooms for hire, decent parking and wheelchair access, and all in a pretty location!

It’s that time of year again for celebrating parties and events outdoors, so here are our top tips for hosting your child’s birthday party in a garden – from the experience of seasoned Children’s Entertainers who have been through it all!

Provide Shelter for All Weather

The first priority for garden parties is ensuring that there is shelter provided for your entertainer and guests, such as a gazebo or summer house. As reliable and robust as our professional DJ equipment is, it’s still no match for a sudden downpour or overheating in direct sunlight – and the last thing we want is for our music to cut out mid-boogie!

Keep Guests Safe in the Sun

It’s always helpful to provide some high-factor sun cream for your guests to use, as this can easily be forgotten amidst all the excitement! Providing plenty of water bottles for your guests is also important – a famous summer-loving snowman once said that “some people are worth melting for” – however, we’d like to avoid any melting at our birthday parties!

Create a Designated Eating Area

When planning the food break at a garden party, having a designated ‘eating area’ in the garden can be useful to keep any food/drink spillage away from the equipment and dancing area. Outdoor tables/chairs can of course be used, or simply creating a picnic/tea-party area with blankets and cushions can also be a sweet addition to the party.

Secure Your Decorations

Decorating your garden can be a little tricky when contending with wind, so always make sure that any bunting/balloons/backdrops are well secured – we wouldn’t want any flying away with the fairies!

Be Neighbourly with a Heads-Up

Lastly, you may wish to tell your neighbours in advance that you’ll be hosting your party outside that day. Although we do try to keep any noise to a minimum, your entertainer will be playing music throughout the party and using microphones, so it may be worth giving them a polite heads-up before the big day.

We hope our garden party top tips can help you make your little one’s birthday into the “BEST. DAY. EVER!!!”

Take your party to the next level by inviting a Snow Princess entertainer! At Snow Princess Parties, we provide all the music, entertainment and magic needed for the perfect kid’s party in the garden!

After over 10 year of entertaining, we’ve certainly explored the ‘infinity and beyond’ of costumes and characters. Did you know? We don’t just provide Princess Parties (though we are famous for it!), we mostly specialise in creating action-packed unforgettable parties, adapting the party to suit your little one and what they’re passionate about. We guarantee our parties bring every beloved character to life in the most exciting and immersive way possible, and it’s super exciting for us to add new characters that were also a staple of our own childhood.

Here’s why we’re proud to say we offer the best Toy Story parties in the UK:

We know the characters inside out

The most exciting part of any party for us is seeing the kids’ eyes light up when we first walk in. All of a sudden their real-life superheroes (or, in this case, their real-life toys) are in front of them! Since we all grew up with these characters as well, we understand the childhood wonder and already know all the intricate details and trivia about our characters, making our appearances as authentic and magical as possible.

Adaptable and Suitable to every audience

All our games are action-packed and adaptable to suit whichever age group we’re entertaining. From colourful parachute games and relay races, to limbo, musical statues and our all-time favourite bubble machine, we’ve got everything to keep kids excited and engaged for the full length of the party. A particular favourite of mine is the ‘Andy’s coming!’ musical bumps game. It always gets a chuckle from the parents seeing their kids flop on the ground when the music stops as if Andy’s walked into the room!

At Snow Princess Parties, we know that the key to an incredible party is keeping kids engaged and entertained, so that the parents can sit back and relax. That’s why our Toy Story parties are packed with themed games and activities designed to appeal to a range of ages.

Incredible 5* Reviews to share

Parents consistently rave about the joy we bring to their children’s special day. With over 1000+ five-star reviews, we are the highest-rated Princess Party Company in the UK. We’re also now expanding the characters we offer! To infinity and beyond!

“10/10. AMAZING. I could not recommend Snow Princess highly enough. The perfect Jessie for our Toy Story mad girl!!! From when I was first making initial enquiries to the moment she left my daughter’s 4th birthday she was so professional, helpful and approachable. Kelsey kept me informed of the running of the day to ensure it all ran smoothly. The children had so much fun and were entertained from start to finish. So many people commented on how fabulous Kelsey was. I will certainly be booking again in the future. The Toy Story themed games were the icing on the cake!!!” ~ Hayley Startin

“Great experience from start to finish. Was friendly and professional and had all the kids under total control so that we were able to just relax and enjoy the party. Would not hesitate to recommend. Thank you!” ~ Jenny Hirst

“We have had a party for my daughters fourth and fifth birthday. I cannot rate them enough! They get everyone involved, including the adults! Breaks the ice instantly and all persons invited have always raved about the entertainment. Thank you again xx” ~ Siobhan Bradley

Throwing a magical Cinderella-themed party for your little prince or princess? Whether it’s a birthday or a special occasion, these six ideas will make your celebration unforgettable. From enchanting decorations to fun activities, these ideas will bring the classic fairytale to life and leave your little guests feeling like royalty!

1. Royal Ball Invitations

Start the party with a grand gesture by sending out “Royal Ball” invitations sealed with gold wax stamps. Use elegant, scroll-style invitations that announce a royal celebration at “The Prince’s Castle.” Encourage kids to dress in their best fairytale attire!

Tip: You can include a personalised note from Cinderella herself inviting the children to the ball.

2. Cinderella’s Glass Slipper Hunt

Organise a treasure hunt around the party venue with hidden “glass slippers” (plastic or paper ones). Each slipper can hold a clue that leads to the next one. The final prize could be a tiara, wand, or even a keepsake “Royal Ball” certificate.

Tip: You can get creative with the clues by making them rhyme or tying them into parts of the Cinderella story.

3. Fairy Godmother Craft Station

Set up a craft table where kids can decorate their own magic wands, crowns, or even little pumpkins. Provide glitter, jewels, and stickers for a royal touch. Each child gets to take their creation home as a party favour.

Tip: Use foam pumpkins for a fun twist on decorating!

4. Enchanted Photo Booth

Create a photo backdrop that looks like Cinderella’s carriage or the grand castle staircase. Provide royal props such as crowns, wands, and “glass slippers” for the children to pose with.

Tip: Hire a photographer or use a Polaroid camera so kids can take home instant pictures.

5. Royal Banquet with Themed Treats

Set up a table of magical snacks including pumpkin-shaped biscuits, “glass slipper” cupcakes, and blue punch labelled as “Fairy Godmother’s Potion.” Don’t forget a beautifully decorated cake fit for royalty!

Tip: Add themed labels to food, like “Prince Charming’s Sandwiches” or “Magic Wand Breadsticks.”

6. A Cinderella Dance Party

End the celebration with a dance party! Play songs from Disney’s Cinderella and other fun, upbeat tunes. Have the birthday child lead the first dance, just like Cinderella at the ball.

Tip: Hand out mini party favours like tiaras, sashes, or medals for best dancers.

Bonus Tip!

Invite Cinderella herself to the ball! Snow Princess Parties is the highest-rated children’s entertainment company in the UK, and Cinderella is one of our most popular characters! For endless fun, magic, and excitement, enquire now to invite your real-life princess! 

These ideas will turn any gathering into a magical celebration that your child and their friends will cherish forever!

Lucy is the proud owner of Snow Princess Parties in Middlesex, and she is thrilled to share with you why being Elsa is a truly magical experience! 

For as long as she can remember, Lucy has had a passion for music, magic, and all things pink and sparkly. She’s been a professional singer for many years, and she’s been fortunate enough to turn her love for music and performance into a full-fledged career.

Joining Snow Princess Parties in 2023 was a dream come true for Lucy. From the very first party, she knew she had found something incredibly special! There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing the joy and wonder on a child’s face when their favorite character walks through the door. The excitement, the hugs, the smiles—it’s all just magical. And being Elsa is where the magic really comes alive for Lucy! 

Lucy loves everything about Elsa—from her iconic songs like “Let It Go” to her graceful, sparkling presence. As Elsa, Lucy gets to sing, dance, and bring joy to childrens’ lives in a way that feels both personal and heartwarming. Whether she’s belting out a song or throwing glitter into the air, every moment feels like a true celebration.

Birthday parties with Snow Princess Parties are filled with pure fun and excitement. Over the course of two hours there is dancing, party games, and lots of singing! There’s never a dull moment, and we love being able to create lasting memories that children will treasure forever. We always have a blast while making sure the day is as special as it can be.

So, if you’re in Harrow or the surrounding areas and want to create a magical day filled with singing, dancing, and endless sparkle, get in touch with Lucy at Snow Princess Parties. She can’t wait to celebrate with you and bring a little extra magic into your world!

We can’t wait to see you!

After running our magical Princess Parades for many years in Berkshire, Kent and London, we brought our hugely successful event to Hampshire for the first time in 2023. To make things even bigger and better for 2024, we collaborated with Sparkle Vegan Events to create the very first Hampshire Princess Festival!

Magical Memories

Seven fairytale princess characters gathered in Romsey War Memorial Park where we entertained hundreds of local families with stunning live singing performances, dances to the children’s favourite songs, and even some party games! We also had a Fancy Dress competition to win one of our bespoke Snow Princess tiaras – with so many mini Princesses, Superheroes and other creative costumes in the audience, this was a very difficult choice!

Vegan Festival Stalls

Alongside the entertainment, the hundreds of families who attended the event were treated to an array of stalls run by wonderful local vegan businesses selling toys, delicious food and sweet treats, summery drinks, jewellery and hair accessories, and of course, face painting(!), all organised by our lovely friends at Sparkle Vegan Events!

Meet & Greets

After our performances, we had individual Meet & Greets, where the children got to have special 1-to-1 time with their favourite characters and take some beautiful photos to keep forever! It’s always so sweet to see little ones dressed in the same costume as their favourite character, and it was wonderful to see familiar faces of families whose parties we’ve previously attended! Their ongoing support of our business means the world.

See you in 2025!

We are now planning ahead to bring our Princess Festival back to Hampshire this year, which will be held on Friday 1st August 2025 at Alton Public Gardens  – so please save the date! 

We’re delighted to say that there will be NO TICKETS REQUIRED this year thanks to our new location having a much larger capacity, meaning the event can be free for all to attend with no restrictions – allowing lots more families to join in the magic!

Please follow our Facebook event here for updates!

We really hope to see you there!
