  • "We hired mermaid Luna to make an appearance at my 3-year-old son's birthday party (Belmont, NC), and she was fabulous! She was the highlight of the day! We were amazed at how realistic she looked, and my 5 yr old daughter last night told somebody that a "real live mermaid!!!" came to her little brother's birthday party! She was so kind and professional, we would not hesitate to hire her again!"

    Maria, PADI Mermaid/Advanced Mermaid student and current team member, August 2023

  • "Luna, the Songbird Siren was the perfect addition to our Fairies in the Forest event! Children and families encountered her on the stone bridge over the stream and were enchanted by her beautiful singing voice. She spent time with every child that came and they got to take pictures with her and ask her questions. She was absolutely professional and wonderful with everyone. We loved having her at our event!"
