A Fun, Creative Hen Party Experience That Everyone Will Remember

YOU Get What You Pay For!

Beware of Cheap Entertainer Agencies – You Get What You Pay For! When booking an entertainer for your event, it’s natural to want the best deal possible. We all love a bargain, but when it comes to hiring entertainers, a cheap quote often means a cheap quality service —and in some cases, a complete disaster on the day. Many low-cost entertainer agencies operate by selling you a service without first confirming availability with their performers. This can lead to major issues, especially if you’re booking niche entertainers like roly-polies, dwarfs, or specialty acts . Here’s what you need to watch out for when dealing with these agencies: 1. You Might Not Get What You Booked Some agencies will sell you a performer they don’t actually have available in your area. When the day comes and they can't deliver the entertainer you requested, they simply send a standard male or female stripper instead —without informing you. Imagine booking a specialty act for your stag or hen party, only to have a generic replacement turn up! By the time you realise the switch, it’s too late to arrange something else 2. Last-Minute Changes & No Accountability Many agencies include sneaky clauses in their terms and conditions stating that they can swap your entertainer at the last minute due to "circumstances beyond their control." Even if you complain, they’ll argue that you still received a service—meaning your deposit is non-refundable . This is a common trick used to avoid responsibility while still making money off unsuspecting customers 3. Bigger Deposits, Lower Pay for Performers Another red flag is higher deposits and lower pay for entertainers . Some agencies charge inflated deposits upfront but pay their entertainers the bare minimum , which can lead to poor performance quality, lack of enthusiasm, and even last-minute cancellations . If performers aren’t valued or fairly compensated, they’re far less likely to provide a great experience 4. Why We Do Things Differently At Twisted Parties, we believe in quality over cutting corners . Here’s how we ensure you get the best experience possible: ✅ Performer Availability Checked First – We always confirm an entertainer’s availability before taking your booking ✅ Fair Pay for Our Entertainers – We value our performers, ensuring they are well-compensated to provide a top-tier experience ✅ Clear Communication – If any issues arise (such as illness or emergencies), we notify you immediately and work to provide a suitable replacement rather than leaving you in the dark ✅ Honest & Transparent Pricing – No hidden fees, no last-minute surprises—just great entertainment tailored to your event ✅ Verified Reviews – Don’t just take our word for it! Compare our reviews to other agencies before making your decision Do Your Research Before Booking Before committing to an entertainer agency, always check their reviews, policies, and pricing structure . If a quote seems too good to be true, it probably is . A great event is worth investing in, and choosing a reputable agency ensures a stress-free, high-quality experience from start to finish Want to book with confidence?
