11th Birthday

We had a largish (22 girls) party for my daughters 11th bday. The girls really had a great time.
Once booked Zara (team leader) kept in touch with me and would answer any queries I had and reassured me all will be well. The girls that came with her were hardworking and charming, very amiable. I think one more member of staff would have been ideal.
On the whole we all had a fab time and many parents messaged to say what a lovely time their daughters had. Ideal way to relax before the upcoming SATS.
Thank you Zara and girls xxx

Absolutely brilliant from start to …

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Replied to all email correspondence immediately and was very clear on packages and what's was or wasn't included.
The girls who hosted Zara and Maria were really professional, fun and made it look so easy. Very friendly and easy to have host a party I. My home. The girls loved them both.
Highly recommend to all.

Party for my 8 year old daughter

I have been very impressed by the service I have received from Grumpy but Gorgeous. I must say that I became quite concerned after I'd booked the party back in January, as I'd subsequently seen some very negative reviews online about the company (or about another company going by the same name). However I need not have worried as my emails to the team in London were always answered promptly and on the day of the party everything ran very smoothly. Z and M the party hosts turned up an hour before the party to set things up. They were very well organised and made sure that the party was lots of fun for my daughter and her friends. My daughter said afterwards that it was "the best party ever!". I would very happily recommend the company to others.

Poor value for money, a big disappointment!

I do not believe that this company offers value for money.

Grumpy But Gorgeous have a lovely glossy website and very friendly staff operating their phones, but once bookings are made they show little interesting in dealing with any customer concerns. They get their commission and you are on your own from then on.

I paid £300 for a 'luxury' pamper party that was anything but luxurious, but when I spoke to GBG after the party, they pass all responsibility on to the 'consultant' that did the party.

I believe that GBG should be fully responsible for the parties it runs, and for ensuring that its consultants meet up to the promises made by GBG. They should also be prepared to fully respond to any complaints, rather than passing the buck to the consultant (for whom I have no contact details).

My complaints included:

>stained flannels and towels.
>bath robes with sweet wrappers from previous parties.
>foot spas with remnants of previous parties.
>the promised 'extra' of a drinks trolley with fizzy drinks in glasses failed to materialise, leaving me short of drinks.
>the package included magazines for all of the girls, cuticle tattoos and party games however we did not get any of these.
>throughout the party the host took photos and when questioned said this was part of the package, however weeks later no photos have been received.
>one host is not enough for 8, let alone 10 girls - they were left bored

There were actually further negative issues, which I have chosen not to share in this review.

I generally do not leave reviews, however I do not wish other people to feel disappointed in the way that we have.

I have now changed my review from 2 stars to 1 star due to the fact that GBG attempted to take down my review from the Trust Pilot website within minutes of me posting it! I believe businesses should invite all reviews, positive or negative and use them to develop going forwards, as oppose to trying to suppress any negative feedback.

Dear Lorraine,


We are very sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the service you received. GBG ensures that the party host assigned to parties are fully informed of the inclusions of the party customers booked. They are provided everything needed to carry out the parties.

We received your feedback the day after your party and walked you through the Terms and Conditions and the complaint procedures. We have informed you that we will pass on your feedback to your party host so she can speak to you directly and sort out your complaint.

GBG is responsible in ensuring that our staff are provided with the equipment for their parties, thus the party hosts are responsible in ensuring that they are able to provide customers with all the aspect of their party.


Our staff ensures that equipment for parties are clean. If you do have photos to share of the stained flannels and towels, and the bathrobes with sweet wrappers, and the foot spas we would kindly request for you to please send it to us.



You were provided 1 staff member because you have added your 2 extra girls short notice. We require customers to inform us if they adding extra girls at least a week before their party and this is stated in the Terms and Conditions that you receive upon booking.


We have explained this to you when you requested to add 2 extra girls and you accepted and agreed to have 1 staff member, even apologising that you forgot to advise us earlier.




Again, our apologies if you were not happy with the service you received.
