Party Frequently Asked Questions
Who needs a Waiver & Socks?
-
Yes. A completed waiver is required for every single person entering the facility, regardless of age or whether they plan to play.
This includes:
Mom and dad (both parents, not just one)
Grandparents
Aunts and uncles
Caregivers or family friends
Adults who are “just watching”
Babies and infants
All individuals entering the building must have a waiver on file. This is a safety and insurance requirement and applies to anyone who steps inside the facility, even if they do not plan to use the play structures.
We recommend that all guests complete their waiver prior to arrival to ensure a smooth and quick check-in experience.
-
Yes. Every adult must complete their own individual waiver, even if another parent or guardian has already completed waivers for the children.
Waivers are required for:
Both parents
Grandparents
Aunts and uncles
Caregivers
Any adult entering the facility
Each adult must have a separate waiver on file, regardless of whether they plan to play or simply supervise. This is required for safety, insurance, and liability purposes.
To avoid delays at check-in, we recommend completing your waiver before arrival.
-
Yes. Socks are required for all guests entering the facility, including adults who are not playing.
This includes:
Parents (both mom and dad)
Grandparents
Aunts and uncles
Caregivers
Older siblings
Babies and infants
For cleanliness and safety reasons, shoes are not permitted beyond the front area, and everyone must wear socks while inside the facility — even if you are simply supervising and not using the play structures.
If you forget socks, we have them available for purchase at the front desk.
Party Timing & Extensions
-
• We offer one-hour extensions only.
• Extension fee: $150.
• Extensions are contingent on availability — best to book in advance. We can’t guarantee day-of extensions. -
Out of respect for the next scheduled party, a 5-minute grace period is provided. After that, there is a $50 fee per each 15 minutes over. This is a penalty, not an extension, and impacts the next booking. Unauthorized extensions may result in loss of future booking privileges.
-
We provide 15 minutes for setup. Early arrivals can’t be accommodated. Setup time is for adults only — children aren’t permitted to play during setup as we are cleaning and sanitizing the play area. Please ask guests not to arrive early, as early entry isn’t permitted.
-
Party rooms are assigned by time slot, not by preference. Because parties are staggered, rooms cannot be changed. Each room includes the same countertop, tables, and seating.
-
To successfully host 10–12 parties each weekend, we keep décor packages streamlined for a seamless, on-time setup. This allows our staff to focus on creating the best day ever for your celebration.
• Décor packages are pre-curated and not customizable.
• The only modification allowed is a “Table Swap”: we change the table settings and table décor to one of the themes listed on our website. The backdrop and balloon arch remain the same and are not customizable.
• Deluxe bookings may request balloon colors (submit 2 weeks prior). Colors are matched as closely as possible from our inventory; exact matches aren’t guaranteed, and we do not change the arch shape.
• Additional arches may be added to a deluxe theme at $20 per linear foot (e.g., party favor stand). -
Yes — the Blank Slate package is designed to give you a Blank space to set up your own decorations.
We recommend a focus on table decorations.
• No wall decor is permitted. No tacks, nails, or adhesives that damage walls.
• No confetti or loose glitter.
• Please arrive with balloon arches pre-done and party favors pre-assembled — you’ll have 15 minutes for setup.
• Keep décor simple so we can maintain safety, cleanliness, and on-time turnover. -
No. Our team can only use balloons from our inventory, and balloon arches are created only with the Deluxe package. We’re not able to accept outside balloons or supplies for assembly.
-
Yes—by request. We can create a new party theme for a $100 customization fee, contingent on approval. Our team will first confirm that we can source a complete, matching assortment (tableware, backdrop accents, balloon colors, and décor elements) for the theme you have in mind.
Lead time: Please submit your request at least 45 days before your event so we have time to source and stage the look.
How it works:
Send the theme name and any reference photos or links.
We’ll review availability and confirm within a few business days.
If approved, the $100 theme fee is added to your booking and is non-refundable once we purchase supplies.
Notes:
We match colors and styles as closely as possible using our vendors; exact brand/licensing items may not be available.
Décor & Themes
-
• Child guest count is due 2 weeks prior to ensure supplies are available. If you expect to exceed your included count(e.g., 30 vs. 15), please email us ASAP in case of supplier delays.
• The confirmed count 48 hours prior is the number we set the room for and the minimum number charged. We don’t reach out to reconfirm — if your count changes from the 2-week estimate, email us 48 hours prior with your final number.
• Adult headcount isn’t required, but must remain within maximum capacity guidelines. -
Yes. All guests entering Enchanted Indoor Playground are counted toward your guest count, including family members, the birthday child, and anyone who enters the building—even if they are not playing.
Here’s how guest counting works:
Birthday Child: Included in the child guest count
Children ages 1–9: Count as children
Babies under 1 year old: Free
Guests ages 10 and up: Count as adults
Non-playing guests (parents, relatives, spectators): Still counted

-
Absolutely! Children over the age of 8 are welcome to attend and help celebrate.
Here’s how it works:
Children ages 1–9 are included in the child guest count.
Guests age 10 and up are counted as adults. Older kids are welcome to help supervise younger guests on the playground, but please note that our play space is designed for ages 8 and under to ensure a safe and fun environment for everyone.
To keep things safe, rough housing or high-energy play isn’t permitted, and guests over age 10 may be asked to sit out if their play becomes disruptive.
All individuals entering the building—whether they’re playing or just watching—must wear socks and count toward the total guest count.
We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in helping us keep the playground magical, safe, and fun for all ages!
