Disney Characters in parties?

Question

READ ALL THE DETAILS! I keep getting wrong answers 6th time I'm asking. I asked for 4 of them to be removed, and my details vanished in the last two.

Can Disney characters be used in birthday parties for little girls? I'm not talking of CARS and the actual animation. I mean just an actress coming in and acting like Snow White for a few hours with the kids and dressing them up as princesses and son on.

I want to use Alice, Jasmine (Alladdin's Princess), Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Little Mermaid. I know they are not completely Disney based as Lil Mermaid and Alice were both books. Not sure of the rest.

I am not saying COPYING the characters or stealing their look. Just an actress in a custome.

Answer 1

Some people may have been confused as the wording for your question is a little unclear at times.

If what you mean is you would like to hire someone to come to a birthday party dressed like a Disney character (and act like them, too, of course) then yes, people do that. I actually have a friend in the Sacramento, CA area who does Snow White, Cinderella, and Sleeping Beauty, depending on what they ask for.

However, if you mean one of the actors who is specifically trained (like for Disneyland) to be those characters, no, I don't think anyone does that.

Ask around at places that hire balloon animal makers or clowns, they may have someone who does princesses.

Answer 2

You'd need to find a company that have their costume, because the costumes are extremely expensive. Nothing else should be a problem outside of that though.
