Questions before you book?
If you want more detail before reaching out, the FAQ and Booking Policies pages are both easy places to start.

You are always welcome to share mobility, sensory, seating, lighting, communication, or participation needs during booking.

Booking notes
Clear expectations make the whole process easier.
The inquiry itself does not secure your date. Laughing Llama is fully insured and can provide documentation when needed, and event setup needs are reviewed before the agreement is finalized. If your venue, school, or organization needs a clearer trust snapshot first, the Verified, Insured & Event Ready page is a good place to start.
Dates are not held automatically
A date is officially secured only after the agreement is signed and the required deposit is paid.
Travel & insurance
Most bookings include a $50 travel and insurance fee, with additional travel fees based on event distance and details for Southeastern Wisconsin or Northern Illinois events.
Outdoor planning
Shade, weather accommodations, safe working conditions, and adequate lighting all matter for a smooth event day.
Inquiry form
Send your event details here.
This simple form goes straight to hello@laughingllama.llc. If email or text feels easier, those work too.
Quick pricing snapshot
A simple look at the services people ask about most.
This keeps the most-requested booking details easy to scan while the fuller policies stay on their own page.

$100/hour, 2-hour minimum, plus a $50 travel & insurance fee.
Tarot Experiences
Available for parties, one-on-one readings, markets, bridal showers, and creative gatherings.

A few quick answers before you reach out.
What secures a booking date?

Are you insured?
Yes. Laughing Llama is fully insured and can provide insurance documentation when an event or venue requires it.
Can I ask about balloon twisting?
Yes. Balloon twisting can be mentioned as a special-request add-on, but face painting remains the primary booking focus.
What happens after I submit?
Mel reviews the details and follows up as soon as possible with availability, next steps, and anything else needed to shape the best fit.
Prefer to reach out another way?
