Packaway Parties Reviews 174

My 5 year old loved his birthday party.
Liz is very swift in her communication and explained what it meant to hire the packaway box.

When the box arrived, it was all packed neat, clean and appropriate. There was an easy itenary list to follow which was great to check in items received and check items for returning. The box arrives at your door and taken away from your door, so no going out to collect or send back.

There was plenty of games. As the age range was 4-5 some were a little out there but we could adapt.

The children loved the obstacle course with the dinosaur space hoppers. Just we only got one set of dinosaur stilts, whereas we had two sets of everything else ( so it would have been expected that the obstacle course accommodated two teams) - so I had to leave them out.

The standard cost covers 12 children, I ordered for 15 (3.99 per extra child). We had a few no shows and maybe on reflection £4 for the extra bits to add for each child, was in my view a little bit much. Maybe offering £10 extra for 4 more children, then enables parents to feel more of a deal or incentive to add extra children.

Definitely recommend and I will be using this in the future.

Fabulous Harry Potter party for 8 year olds! The programme and schedule was extremely well laid out, clear instructions and above-expectation selection of props, games and costumes in the crate. Casting spells, making magic potions, trying to open the Monster Book and spending well deserved golden coins in Diagon Alley sweet shop... and so much more. Kids had a blast and the games and party's narrative sparked imagination even for those who have not yet read the book. This was a 'wow'-party at affordable price and in a more environmentally friendly way (and hardly any time spent on planning and organising!). Thanks Packaway Parties and Liz (who has been a great support throughout)!

Excellent service and made the party very memorable and much easier to do!

Thank you to Packaway Parties for giving my 8 year old son the star wars themed birthday party he was dreaming of. The decorations were fantastic and the children had a great time playing all the games. We would definitely use Packaway Parties again.

Great service from Liz & everything arrived on time, with easy to follow instructions.

Everybody loved the Harry Potter themed party, including the parents & had a great time!

Would definitely recommend & use again!

With the help from Liz we were able to create the perfect Star Wars party for Our little one. Would definitely recommend using this company. Everything was well thought out and the kids had a blast!

Liz from Packaway Parties was very quick to respond to messages and sent all the party decorations, costumes and plan to my front door. Normally I spend a fortune on bits and bob's and end up giving it away, it great to know the packages are eco friendly, reused and washed for other parties is a great idea. Everything came neatly packed and a booklet of step by step guidance was provided, the kids really enjoyed figuring out how to open the monster book, they guessed the riddles to add the creatures into the magic cauldron, loved walking through the brick walled decoration and loved casting spells to win prizes. I will be
intouch next year!
Thank You

We booked a Lego party for my son’s 5th birthday. The service is brilliant - quick responses and very helpful. The package/crate was delivered a few days before the party and was packed full of everything you need for the party from decorations & signs to brilliant games. Also a very organised folder of clear and precise instructions that helped prepare and on the day. Thank you!

We ordered a Harry Potter party for my 7 year olds birthday. Liz was great from the start. We got the deluxe package with the sweetshop and it was worth every penny. Wands and robes were provided, excellent decorations (my son wanted to keep most of them!) and fantastic party games. We especially enjoyed the monster book of monsters and the misty cauldron! The sweet shop had an excellent selection of sweets and made a bunch of 6 and 7 year olds very happy indeed. Delivery and return was painless and everything worked beautifully. I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone! Excellent service,

I booked a Lego party last minute. The box arrived via courier on time, Liz had briefed me before on what was in the box but it honestly exceeded my expectations. Every detail was accounted for, even down to blu-tac being included to put the decorations up. The games are well thought through and the instruction manual is very clear. I would not hesitate to recommend and I will definitely be using again.

An out of this world Star Wars adventure!
We had the Star Wars Jedi academy training package for my sons 6th birthday party and to say we were impressed would be an understatement! They literally have thought of everything you could possibly need, provided everything and prepared a thoroughly entertaining schedule of games to keep everyone engaged and enthralled for over 2 hours! The package has lots of flexibility to adjust for all age groups and was loved by parents and kids, my son has asked for exactly the same again next year he had such a blast! Liz is brilliantly responsive and accommodating, I would highly recommend packaway parties to anyone hosting a childrens party.

This company is amazing, highly recommended.
We ordered a box with Harry Potter theme, when it arrived it was more that I was expected, the decorations and games were fantastic, they give you a very detail plan on how to set and prepare the party and games. The kids loved every part of it.

Absolutely thrilled with my sons Star Wars themed 8th birthday party from Packaway Parties! I’d been hesitant whether to give him a party due to the stress and planning involved, but as soon as I found Packaway Parties I knew this could be removed! The process was simple, the games were fantastic & kept 8 cheeky 8 year olds entertained for 2 hours plus. Everything was well laid out and organised, and such good value. Really recommend this company!!!

We opted for the children’s lego package and it was most definitely a “wow”!
Everything included was thoroughly explained and you are provided with a manual which includes comprehensive instruction and ideas to create a streamlined event.

Liz was extremely helpful and timely in responding to any queries.
The ease of courier drop off and deliver allowed us to go ahead without a hitch.

The children attending our daughters party said it was the “best” they had ever been to!
The options on offer allow for a more individualised and creative party experience!
We have one happy little girl!
Thank you!
Will definitely use again and recommend to all other parents!

We had a Harry potter party for my daughter's 7th birthday. The packaway party kit was great. It had everything we needed, plus more. The instructions for the games and set up were easy to follow and the customer service from Liz was excellent. The children (and adults) had a great time. They loved the games, it flowed along easily and the kids loved casting spells on Dumbledore. I will definitely be hosting a packaway party again in the future!

Brilliant! Pack away parties had thought of absolutely everything. I decided to stage my daughter’s 6th birthday Harry Potter party outdoors with occasional features inside. All the props worked equally well inside & in our garden, Honeydukes was an exciting add-on. I can’t recommend this highly enough and imagine we’ll be back with Packaway Parties next year! Thank you so much!

A fantastic birthday party package. The communication from start to finish was very good, everything arrived as planned and the party instructions, games and materials were of very high quality. I would highly recommend the Packaway Parties.

This is such a great business. My daughter really wanted a Harry Potter party and this box had everything we needed, and more! Loads of decorations, props, and games ideas. There were enough costumes for every guest, which other parents were so impressed with. The delivery of the box was straightforward, both receiving and sending. All communications were prompt.

Thank you for coming up with an absolutely genius idea for running parties. It is so cost effective and so good for the environment. The info pack was amazing. There was so much in it which it made it so much easier to run the party. All the decorations made the room so much more atmospheric and the games were fantastic. My daughter and her friends all loved the party. It was absolutely brilliant.

Simply fabulous. Everything included, well planned and so easy to follow. I would recommend to anyone. The children and parents really enjoyed the party.
