I am giving 5 stars as this was what I consider a last minute decision to execute a plan for a customer. My team said the Santa was great throughout the event. Customer service was great as well from the Bash team. Will use this service again if the need arises.

So Glad We Used Aaron’s caricature!

Aaron’s caricatures made the event more fun! Everyone wanted him to draw them!
Aaron has a wonderful personality and would add to anyone’s event. I highly recommend Aaron. His artwork was very good and kind.

"Santa went to the wrong Brightview community"! Had guests waiting for photos. The Santa suit he wore was old and dingy, not what I would have expected for $400.00.

Will not use the company again!

The one thing my Father wanted at his funeral was a bagpiper. The Bash delivered the kindest and best piper. Communication was topnotch. His musical ability was amazing. It was Kismet for him to play for us. Can not thank you enough. Be blessed. The Wallace Clan

Lani was great

Lani was great. Helpful where should could be. Folks liked her. She was a self started. Nice person.

If we use you again, we would like her, but you do not honor requests. We think we hired one person and get someone else. For this reason, we likely will go elsewhere. Transparency is very important.

The Bash has done the work for you.

The Bash was very easy to work with. They gave tons of options for entertainment with ratings and comments from people that had hired the talent in the past.
Anyone that I was interested in was very good at getting back to me with answers to my question.
We will definitely be using them again in the future when planning one of our corporate functions.

This by far is the best entertainment site that I have ever used! The staff has always been so easy to deal with if I had any questions. I chose Mike Slater of Waltham MA as Elvis and he was excellent and unbelievably sang so much like Elvis! He was on time and was dressed in one of Elvis's jumpsuits that he wore! He engaged with everyone in the audience and Everyone loved him He also gave out scarves and teddy bears just like Elvis did. I will definitely be hiring him again! The process to choose and entertainer is also so easy and user friendly and Is my go to site when I am looking for an entertainer! I highly recommend "The Bash" for all your entertainment needs
