Bringing Home Awards & Fresh Inspiration for West Michigan

At I Love Your Face LLC, we’re always looking for ways to level up our skills and bring the best entertainment to our clients. That’s why I recently attended the MAX convention in St. Louis, MO—an incredible gathering of entertainers specializing in balloon art, face painting, and more. It was a fantastic experience filled with learning, networking, and competition. And I’m thrilled to share that I brought home three awards from the competitions! I loved representing Grand Rapids & our beautiful Westside of Michigan.

🎉 3rd place in the Line-work Competition (A sculpture that takes 3-5 min).

🎈 2nd place in the Headband Competition (A sculpture that is on a wearable Headband).

🏆 2nd place in the Small Build Theme Competition (This year's theme was mystic creatures).

These competitions showcased some of the best talent in the industry, and placing in multiple categories was an incredible honor. I walked away with new techniques, fresh inspiration, and a renewed passion for bringing top-tier entertainment to our events.

What This Means for Our Clients

Attending events like MAX allows us to stay on top of industry trends and refine our craft. Whether it’s balloon twisting, face painting, or any other service, our goal is always to create unforgettable experiences for every event we’re part of.

Here’s how we’re taking things to the next level:

Behind the Art and Magic: What Goes Into the Pricing of Your Event Experience

Choosing the right entertainment service provider can be overwhelming, especially when understanding the pricing. We strive to deliver exceptional artistry and bring a level of creativity and expertise that’s top in the industry. At I Love Your Face, we aim to keep our pricing structure straightforward, fair, and customized to meet the unique needs of your event. This post will walk you through how we arrive at our pricing, with a starting rate of $270, and explain the factors that influence the final cost.

Our Base Rate

Our base rate covers one artist for up to two hours and ensures you receive the foundational elements needed to make your event memorable. It represents our commitment to quality, reliability, and creating a magical and unforgettable experience.

Face Painting: Base rate is $270

Balloon Twisting: Base rate is $290

Airbrush Tattoos: Base rate is $300

Henna: Base Rate is $250

Cotton Candy Service: $300

Craft Station: $275

These rates are for one artist and up to two hours of service.

Factors That Impact Pricing

While the base rate provides a starting point, various factors may adjust the price based on the specific requirements of your event. Here are the main elements we consider:

  • Number of Guests

The number of guests attending influences the time and resources needed to ensure each person receives individual attention. Extensive guest lists often require additional artists, supplies, and service hours, which affects the overall cost.

  • Distance to Venue

We want to bring our services to you, no matter the location. However, longer travel distances incur additional costs for transportation, time, and sometimes accommodations if the event is far from our base of Allendale, Michigan. The further we travel, the more adjustments may be necessary to cover these logistical needs.

  • Parking and Accessibility

Accessibility to the venue can impact pricing due to potential parking fees, carrying equipment long-distance, or being in a crowded venue. If parking requires additional arrangements or payments, we factor these into our overall costs to avoid surprises later.

  • Number of Artists

We may need more than one artist for larger gatherings or events with multiple components to ensure efficient, high-quality service. Adding additional artists increases costs but ensures every guest receives quality and personal attention.

  • Services Requested

We offer various customizable services tailored to your event’s theme and goals. The number of services requested, personalized designs, and other custom requests affect our rate, as these services require extra resources and expertise.

We believe in a transparent, straightforward approach to pricing that ensures you understand where every dollar goes. Most clients spend between $560 and $750 to create an unforgettable experience tailored to their event needs. This flexible range allows us to deliver a personalized, high-quality experience, ensuring every detail aligns with your vision. We’re committed to creating an experience that’s both memorable and aligned with your budget.

With a reputation as a trustworthy partner, we go above and beyond to make every occasion genuinely magical and seamless.

Thank you for choosing us for your event. We look forward to making it exceptional!
