Celebrate Express

Full review
What to do for a nearly four-year old obsessed with tea parties? Why a tea party birthday of course! If only I could find tea party everything, I'd be in business. The only problem for my perfect party plan was that I'd never seen tea party items. Not to worry, like everything else I've thought of over the years, they were found at BirthdayExpress.com.

Over the years, I've ordered from BirthdayExpress.com many times and never had a problem finding ideas, or favors. Everything from Incredble Hulk and Finding Nemo to Pirate Treasure can be found to plan that perfect party.

Selection is massive, and all of the coordinating accessories are readily available. It seems most of the lines have either a big package available or you can select items in an "a'la carte" fashion, picking only what you need. If you select an item, you can easily see coordinating or suggested items and their prices to round out your order.

Pricing is comparable, to better than, local party supply stores I've gone through. The discounted favor boxes or bigger packages are an especially good deal.

Ideas to plan your perfect party are plentiful and free. Figure out how to plan theme-oriented games, activities or bake that perfect cake.

Costumes are also sold here. They are on the pricey side, versus the drugstore variety. Think $35.00 or more, for the perfect compliment to any party. I passed, though I may be back for Halloween.

On my moste recent order I used the 2 day option for an additional $10.00 charge and found it to be well worth it. Nothing like salvation for the procrastinating Mom.

My orders are always well packaged and come with an enticing catalog that my kids love to thumb through and pick their favorite themes.
