What do you need to know from an organiser in order to provide a comprehensive quote?

To receive a comprehensive quote from us at Glowing Smiles, we would ideally need:
-The date of the event
-Approx location and venue eg. postcode
-Approx amount of people who will request face painting
-Time of event and duration
-Whether it's indoors or outside.
This is so you can receive the fairest and most accurate quote tailored to you and for your event specifically.

What advice would you give to a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

I would recommend you request to see some pictures of their work as you don't want the children attending or you to be disappointed on the day of the event as face paint can make or break any event! You can also ask approximately how many children they can paint in an hour if this is something you're worried about. And lastly, just express any concerns or questions you may have about the service.

Please tell us a little bit about how and why you started the business.

I started Glowing Smiles after years of painting fun designs on my little sister and always having a passion for art and being creative. After not doing face painting for a while I tried it again and realised how I would love to do this as a job! The happiness that face paint puts on clients' faces is enough to make the whole job worth it.

Please tell us about a booking you've had through Add to Event, how did it go? Would you recommend us to others?

I've had many bookings through Add to Event and I can't express enough how much I would recommend it! It's so convenient for both suppliers and people looking for suppliers for events, everything is in one place and so convenient for running a business. One booking I've had through Add to Event was a church event where there were around 60 children, I painted all those children in 2 hours and my clients couldn't believe how I did it! Seeing the children happy and running around with the face paint on was so nice to see as I know I made at least one person's day. It's a very rewarding job and Add to Event makes that possible.
