The Heart Behind the Magic

One of the things that makes CT Princess Parties unique is that our owner, Erica, still personally performs at events.
Even while leading the company and continuing to grow its vision, she still steps into character to create magical moments for children and families across Connecticut.
And honestly, that matters.
Because when children meet a princess, they are not thinking about booking systems, schedules, or business operations. They are experiencing wonder. They are stepping into a story they truly believe in, even if only for a little while.
That sense of magic is something Erica has always believed should feel genuine.
CT Princess Parties was built from a love of immersive entertainment, creativity, and meaningful experiences for families. Long before the company grew into the team it is today, Erica was the one handling every aspect herself, from performances to planning to behind-the-scenes coordination.
As the company has expanded, that foundation has remained the same.
We are proudly a woman-owned and woman-operated small business, and every event is supported by a dedicated team that genuinely cares about the experiences we create. From performer casting and event coordination to character integrity and guest experience, there is an incredible amount of care that goes into what we do.
But at the center of it all is still someone who believes enough in the magic to continue performing herself.
These photos are a perfect reminder of that.
Not just a business owner. Not just a company founder. But someone still willing to step into the gown, kneel in the grass, blow dandelions into the wind, and help create the kinds of memories children carry with them for years.
And we think there is something very special about that.
