Awesome! I absolutely recommend Scheme a Dream. Kids loved the clown on my daughter’s party. Kudos to their customer services too. Highly Appreciated!

You know when you're looking around for a service and you start calling around to different service providers hoping someone will get back to you? Alexis at Scheme A Dream was an absolute dream to work with. My initial inquiry was responded to quickly and shortly thereafter I had what I wanted at a reasonable price. Alexis delivered exactly as she promised and our lawn display was awesome! - I wish I had taken a picture of it at night. My daughter's Covid-safe 10th Birthday was a success and she loved waking up to this beautiful display on our front lawn - what a great way to start her day! Big thanks to Alexis and her team - we have three other (older) kids who just may be getting lawn decorations for their birthdays too!

We had a very positive experience with Scheme A Dream. For work, we booked a virtual story-time for families in our community. (We had Elsa from Frozen - a big hit!) Alexis responded quickly to my inquiry about booking, and her suggestions and recommendations were very helpful! Our “Elsa” was so friendly, and gave our families a great performance. We are looking forward to having another event with them soon!

We have hired Scheme a Dream twice now for both my parents birthdays over the past year! (Two important birthdays that fell during covid... 65 & 70). This was a wonderful way to make up for the fact we couldn't gather to celebrate them. The staff were timely in their responses, polite and professional, and genuinely lovely to deal with. All things were set up as requested and on time! (The only oops was the blow up flamingoes timer was a bit off and turned off in the middle of the day, and the lights were only on for about 10 minutes after dark, but all small potatoes). Highly recommended! Thanks for making covid birthday's a little more fun!

Christie Everett

From start to finish the whole experience was impeccable. We live in the States and we were not able to celebrate our daughter's birthday with her. Mary Poppins was exquisite, stayed in character, and was extremely personable and caring just as Mary Poppins would be. :) Her voice was a dream to listen to and my daughter and my parents were so impressed in this intimate setting of a living room. Our daughter felt our love for her was truly conveyed as Mary Poppins gave her a wonderful truly caring surprise visit. It couldn't happen better Thank you so much!

Drina Drummond

The team at Scheme a Dream helped me connect and share a great birthday with family when we couldn't get together to celebrate. I would highly recommend using these wonderful people to when you want to 'go big' and make someone's special day super awesome. They were responsive and gave me great options within the service that I purchased. I am very happy and would recommend and use their service again.

Nadine Grawberger

We rented Ariel for my grandaughters 6th birthday. It was magical. The kids loved her. The interaction and the wonderment she provided was Awessome. I had never done this before. I will definitely do it again. Ariel was awesome. For safety purposes I will not post a pic. Thank you again scheme a dream.

Dustin Crawford

We had Spider-Man visit my son for 30 mins on his 4th birthday. He was on time and well rehearsed in all of the details we shared about our son. He was great with the kids and very mindful of his time making sure to interact with everyone. My son still talks about this visit months later. A great experience from start to finish and exactly as expected. Highly recommend!

Lorraine Blaney

Exceeded my expectations. Was my husbands 50th birthday last month and I contacted Alexis about doing a fishing theme since he loves it so much. They didn’t have anything that would’ve worked for that theme so her and I decided on a pic which they then had printed on chloroplast. VERY early in the morning(guessing somewhere around 2am), the crew came up and staked the 50walleye in the yard along with a couple extra signs that were optional. The walleye looked phenomenal and The Husband absolutely LOVED it!! I highly recommend them as they are very professional, very easy to work with, very friendly and very affordable! If I ever have another event where I think they could be used, I will most certainly be calling!! Thank you Alexis for a very memorable day ????

Leslie Barker

We got this done for my Mom's 60th and it was perfect. They responded right away with answers to all questions. My only concern was my mom possibly hearing them doing set up RIGHT outside her window and she heard nothing! They were so quiet and quick. We chose the flowers for the yard and I am so glad we did. If you have someone with a big birthday coming up I highly recommend them! Beautiful decorations.

TRACY NAISMITH

Can't begin to describe how perfect this was for celebrating my husband's 50th birthday! He was so surprised and everyone who came by that day said they loved the idea too! Alexis made booking so easy. Everything was done over the phone in a matter of minutes. She answered all my questions and made several suggestions to make the display even better. The day of the birthday, the "flamingo fairies" quietly descended on our front lawn in the early morning hours to work their magic. And did the same when they came by to clean everything up! I had nothing to do but enjoy the display. It will always be a memorable day for us! Thank you!

Alanna Church

Amazing experience with Scheme a Dream! I called them for a last minute birthday request for my husbands 40th birthday. She was so kind, professional and helpful and ensured that she could accommodate my request. We got the lawn beer mug - it was fantastic! Can’t wait to use their services again. Highly, highly recommend!!

Seema Seburn

We highly recommend Scheme a Dream Lawn Greetings. Our 6 year old was over the moon with the extra special touch for her birthday this year, especially since we cannot celebrate the way we usually do. She loved hearing all the "honks" throughout the day to celebrate her special day. Our youngest has already requested this for her birthday in the spring!!

Ashley Jones

Amazing! We hired them at the last minute (less than 24 hours before) to set up our Mom's lawn for her 60th! They were super sneaky and didn't even wake their dog! Was a great surprise for our Mom to wake up to and we definitely will be using them again! Thank you Scheme A Dream!

Rebecca Breckman

We had Belle and Beast to our daughters 2nd Birthday party back in August and all our guests loved it. Our daughter still tells people about it all the time. Belle read a book to the kids, gave them glitter tattoos, and sang to our daughter (amazing voice!). Both then stayed to sing Happy Birthday with her and blow out the candles. They also presented her with a beautiful tiara that made our daughter very happy. We would definitely recommend this company and will be using them again.

M Hill

I got Elsa to come to my 4 year olds birthday party. All the kids loved it. Elsa read a story, sang "Let it go", taught the kids a dance, took pictures with the kids and presented my daughter with a tiara that she was super excited about. All the other parents at the party were impressed as well, a few saying that they were planning to use scheme a deam as well.

Tante Wendy

With all family living on the East Coast and unable to travel during these Covid challenging times, we still wanted to celebrate our sister's 50th birthday. "Scheme a Dream" was a true dream come thru for us, taking all worries out of our hands and providing a SUPERB job. We here were just as elated on seeing photos of your lawn display as our sister was receiving her birthday wishes. A top notch professional company that we would not hesitate to use again and again. Thank you so very much "Scheme a Dream" for making our day memorable and a day for our sister she will never forget.......YOU'RE THE BEST! Wendy Melanson

Amanda Hogue

I recently booked a singing Telegram for a friend of mine, for her milestone birthday. I wanted to have something special for her day because I couldnt plan a party. She was very surprised, and so very happy to have this cowboy show up at her door and sing to her. He sang many songs that she enjoyed and she told me that he was so very kind. If you need something different and memorable for that special occasion, I would definitely suggest you call Scheme-a-Dream!

Rod N

Fantastic!! Loved it, super awesome actors my granddaughter had a birthday to remember with "Princess Anna" singing and dancing with her!! Definitely recommend them. Not only was the service excellent the pricing was great! Follow up after was top notch!! Thank you sooooo much!!

Wendy Collins

They did an excellent job setting up the yard for a surprise for a birthday. The extra card you can get is worth it as it expertly made and a really nice touch. The service and communication from them was excellent and she answered all of my questions in a timely manor. All of the decorations were removed as discretely as they were placed with no damage to the yard or the neighbors yard. I would use this company again without hesitation and recommend them to anyone looking for a fun surprise for someone special.

Arpana Dhir

What a fantastic service and all the kids in my family was happy , thanks micah ( the dino ) for your passions with the kids . Will definitely contact them again . Reasonable price as well

Castelane Marketing

Santa was great , we did an early Christmas dinner , my mother in law loved it. She has been 100% deaf for years and now deemed Pallitive with a brain tumour. Merry Christmas ???? and we hope to many more !

Ray Ettenhofer

Step daughter-in-law 40th. Last minute they were able to fit us in. Fantastic. Had a need boyfriend who did a great job. Had us in stitches.

Dawn Turko

I first heard of this company through co workers and Facebook. All I heard was good things and so when a coworker was retiring in April 2021, I thought of scheme a dream. They did a fantastic job setting up and taking down. No fuss, no muss! My husband turned 50 this month. Again, did an amazing job with the decorations and braved the very cold weather to make my husbands birthday fun! Enjoyed watching people smile and honking when they passed the house. Scheme a dream was here to deliver smiles and laughter that is greatly needed right now. Thank you for bringing a day of fun and letting us forget the hardships we are all dealing with for one day.

Karri Moffatt

Thank you for the great service and support Alexis! My family loved the celebration of cows that arrived for my Dad’s 80th! Your team was quiet and sleuth-like on the evening set up and you had to work in the dark! Great work. He was so happy!

Laura Germain

What a great experience this was! Alexis was able to accommodate us on very short notice and the team created a wonderful display for my mother's 60th birthday. She was so excited to wake up and see a lawn full of decorations! I would highly recommend this service to everyone.

Ratna Ningrum

We just wanted to thank you and Mario for coming to our son’s 6th birthday party. He was excellent and the kids loved him. It was great, thanks again.

Bonnie Wiebe

What a great company!!! Love these guys. My BFF thought she was celebrating her 65th - on her own due to Covid 19. Our golf group would have been out with her for supper on April 13th, but it was not to be. Scheme a Dream to the rescue. 65 pink flamingos and our drive by later, she had the best day ever!!! She was totally surprised and thoroughly emotional. Thank you Scheme A Dream for making her day.

Anne Nemecek

I requested an individual I knew who worked for Scheme A Dream to be Elsa at my grand daughter’s birthday party. The owner was very accommodating and once she checked the woman was available, I booked her for the role of Elsa. She arrived promptly at the agreed upon time, was very professional and the little girls were very engaged by her and totally felt she was the “real Elsa “ who read to them, sang and danced with them. The kids were delighted with her. I would certainly recommend Scheme A Dream!

Kijiji Mom

This was the easiest birthday plan to come together! Alexis helped with providing ideas and suggestions that I would never have thought of. Response time is very fast and the end result of the yard display exceeded our expectations! I would highly recommend this to anyone and look forward to future celebrations to enlist their help again!!

nelson garcia

It was an amazing surprise for my girl friends birthday. They did a great job and I'd recommend their services to everyone. I will use again for sure in the future thanks guys.

Craig Heglin

Hired Johnny Cash for a 60th birthday. Excellent show and very professional. Would definitely use scheme a dream again.

Leeanne S

We had a last minute cancellation with our own Elvis impersonator. I called scheme a dream and was able to book a new Elvis impersonator within a few days. The process was so smooth and easy. Alexis was so understanding with anything that came up with these last minute plans. The impersonator was great! The way he worked with the crowd and our family made it such a special time. I 100% would recommend booking with this company. You WILL NOT be disappointed ???? Thank you so much for making our parents 50th wedding anniversary one to never forget ????

Jess Globerman

Scheme a Dream was professional, and they walked me through selecting the perfect theme for my husbands 40th birthday. Thanks Scheme A Dream - would highly recommend your services!

Nidhi Dhalla

Scheme a dream was amazing! We hired Santa for a first birthday party, who was great and kept the kids engaged and happy! Alexis who works at scheme a dream was also very friendly and informative. I would definitely do more business with scheme a dream in the future!

Lynn Palendat

I wanted to do something to celebrate my husband's 65th birthday so I gave Scheme a Dream a call. After a short discussion I decided that having buzzards placed on my lawn was the right choice. From start to finish I had nothing but positive communication from Scheme a Dream. They were professional and fun to work with!

Amy Barlow

We had Elsa perform at a princess party for 3-4 year old girls. She read a story, sang and danced with the girls. She transitioned from one activity to the next wonderfully, and she was able to independently manage the group. As a parent I didn’t feel the need to “control” anything which was nice. The performers voice was absolutely beautiful. Alexis was great during the booking process, we chose a 30 minute performance and we all felt like it was the perfect amount of time.

Chris Hossack

Very easy to deal with and professional. Made my wife very happy to see the surprise on the front lawn. Perfect covid - bday gift. The kids enjoyed it as well.

Yvette Peters

Placements were terrible. The honk its's my birthday sign was placed behind the fire hydrant. The inflatable bird was facing a tree.

Randy Bettens

My wife and I both celebrated our 50th birthdays in the same month. I had Scheme A Dream surprise her with lawn signs and she decided to do the same for me. They did a fantastic job!

Erin Tan

We had Elsa come out for our daughter's 3rd birthday. Staff at Scheme A Dream were friendly and reassuring (especially during COVID). Elsa was amazing, engaging and very professional. 'Elsa' was someone who you could tell enjoyed and loved what she was doing. Her voice was amazing and gave us chills. My daughter is quite shy, but Elsa was able to get her out of her shell and have her sing along and dance with her. I suggest anyone who has a child that loves Elsa, to hire this Elsa. More than happy with Scheme A Dream and Elsa! Thank you for making my daughter's pandemic birthday memorable for all the right reasons!

jane huminuk

Last week was my sister's 70th birthday. Covid-19 restrictions limited us on what could be done but my brother and I decided we wanted to do something memorable if not a party. Boy! We nailed it by hiring Scheme A Dream! They went the night before and set up my sister's yard with 70 cows, a huge double sided sign, and a 7-ft. inflated birthday cake, plus a Honk Its My Birthday sign. Everyone loved it! And so did she! The only thing she complained about was 'Now all my neighbours know how "&%$$#* old I am!!'

Chelsey Garland

We wanted to do something different and special for our son's 18th birthday since restrictions didn't allow for the usual celebration. The huge inflatable beer was a hit! So a few months later when our daughter was turning 18 we called Scheme A Dream again, and it was another success with inflatable margaritas! They are accommodating, fast, reliable and sneaky quiet!! Lol

True Genius

Really impressed with this Company. Hired the Minnie and Mickey mascots for our son’s 1st bday. Everyone loved it. They arrived on time and were so VERY cute, interacting really well with everyone. It was really special! We were able to take plenty of photos and made memories that will last us a lifetime! Would highly recommend and would use them again in a heartbeat. Thank you Scheme a Dream!

Kim Grant

We had a visit from nerdette Margareet who dropped by my sons 30th birthday party. She was very entertaining and had the crowd laughing at my sons expense! It was great! I highly recommend her!

Terry Vandekerckho

A couple of my wife's friends have used Scheme A Dream and they loved it. I called to inquire about what was available and they were able to set something up that night! Wife was so surprised and she loved it! Great job Scheme A Dream!

Carol Korolyk

I hired this company for my boyfriend's 60th birthday party. My hired "nerd" arrived on time and made use of all the information that I had provided so everyone was laughing due to this. Great overall experience.

Rhiannon Geddes

Scheme a Dream was awesome to work with, I sent Alexis an email inquiry in the middle of the night 2 days before I wanted to do something for my daughter 21st birthday! By the time I woke up in the morning I had a response from Alexis and had everything organized by 10AM the next day. Scheme a Dream was on time, with delivery and pick up. We had several family members and neighbors compliment the flamingos and the sign. I will definitely be using them again. All around great service and product!

Bruce Smyth

We celebrated my mom's 90th by having 90 skunks on front lawn . They were there morning of Birthday with large sign and gone following day. Scheme A dream made day so perfect and still talking about it 2 weeks later Thank you Bruce

Tracey Chaisson

Very professionally done, great display! My dog usually hears everything at night so I was worried he may blow the surprise but he didn't hear a thing! Good job!

Tammy Aime

wanted to say that Elsa that attended our party today was beyond my expectations. What an amazing voice and what an amazing addition to my little ladies first ever birthday party thank you

Cristina da Mata

Amazing experience both with the folks helping organize my event and the performer who performed at the event! I would highly recommend Scheme A Dream for anyone wanting to plan a little surprise for an event.

Joanna Froese

Margaret was such a joy to work with. The mascots were a great quality and added so much to our event. Thank you!

C Marie

This was absolutely amazing! They will work with you if you plan on it being a surprise! Very professional and fun! Totally worth it! Will definitely be using this service again!!! Thanks again guys!

Meriam Salih

Captain America was great with the kids at my sons eighth birthday, he made them laugh and handled their questions very well. Everything was seamless from booking to the day of the party. Will definitely use them again for other events. Thanks so much for making my little guys day so special :)

Jodi Dare

I had such a positive experience! My request was delayed/last minute due to pandemic restrictions and even though it was my own fault, I was still greeted warmly and was provided several options. I was looking for a lawn decoration to celebrate my brother's milestone birthday since we were not able to gather. I was pleased with the options provided to me. The team came in quietly the night before his birthday, so the decorations were there in the morning as a complete surprise! He was thrilled. Thank you so much Scheme A Dream for making a milestone memorable even though it had to be muted. I would absolutely work with you again!

Hillary Mills

Wonderful experience renting an Elmo costume for my nephews birthday. It was easy, seamless pick up and drop off, and very accommodating!

Reese Loiselle

I booked the giant beer mug inflatable for my husband's 40th birthday. The communication from the start was great. Easy to get a hold of. Easy to work with. Gave me all the options and prices and helped me figure out what to put on the board. They came overnight and set up and he woke up to it and was soooo excited. Not doing set up or take down is great. One less thing for me to worry about. The neighbours honked like crazy and everyone had fun. They came 24 hours later and took it all down. Cleaned it all up. We really loved it. Everyone is still talking about it. I highly recommend this service for a wow factor to a celebration!

Cary Tardi

Margaret and her team surprised my dad with an amazing lawn display for his 70th birthday! They are super-friendly and easy to work with. I highly recommend them for any occasion where you need to make an impression!
