This was our second party that My Perfect Party created the perfect space for. Allison and her team are amazing and so easy to deal with.

Nothing is too much trouble and her ideas are fantastic.

Would highly recommend!

Allison and her team were amazing....could not have asked for a more stunning setting. Definitely worth using their expertise to make life easier and stress free. Thank you for bringing the glamour to my day..

Ramona Morel-Sinclair, Box Hill


Thank you to Allison and the team for organising and managing my 50th. It was absolutely perfect and exceeded my expectations in every way. The balance between adult and children entertainment worked so well and the fact I basically had nothing to do leading up to and on the night meant I could really enjoy it. I highly recommend My Perfect Party.

Michael Harrison, Moonee Ponds


Allison, you are your team did a wonderful job at our school parent dinner!

Your responsiveness to all my queries from the beginning of menu planning to every last detail upon arrival of the guests went above and beyond. The dinner was a hit- you were on top of every detail, from ensuring every last candle was lit, to arranging champagne to ensuring the food looked incredible. And it was delicious! And all prepared onsite- what a treat!

Carrie Dandy, Knox Grammer Sydney


Sorry this has taken so long but Julia & I want to thank you so much for making my 60th such an outstanding success at all levels.

Food & bar & catering staff magnificent - yourself included of course.

Your preparation & attention to detail magnificent. Set up of the house magnificent. Weather magnificent!

Everyone had a great time and friends & family have been talking about it a lot after the fact as well

Hi Allison, I really want to say a BIG thank you to you and the team for putting together such a FABULOUS space – it felt magical and set the scene for a perfect send off. I’ll let you know when the pics and video are ready. I’ve already had guests ask me for your details! Thanks again TC.

Tony Chalmers, Sydney (now Hong Kong!)


Thank you so much to Allison for styling our event! It was beautiful and certainly set the scene! If we have another event we will surely be in touch!! Many thanks again.

Gail and Sean, Pennant Hills


I would like to extend my thanks to you and your great team. The night was fantastic and went off without a hitch, Frank was very impressed. Many guests commented on the quality and quantity of the food. It was a wonderful change for me to have a party and not have to spend half of my time in the kitchen. No going back to that now. I have had a few people ask me for your details (and one not even at the party), so I hope you get some business out of them.

I would definitely not hesitate to recommend you and your team. As discussed before Frank’s party, we will be having Monique’s 21st here in October so I will be in touch soon to lock in the date and organise with you.

Jenni Guerra, Moonee Ponds


I’m so sorry, time has gotten away from me and I kept meaning to send an email to say thank you so much for organising Ryan’s party. We were really happy with the way everything turned out (even the wind factor which the next week was out in full force!). We are still getting comments on how good the food and the decorations were, so just wanted to pass that on to you. And the party boy had a great night! Thanks again for all your help, and making my life so much easier. Best regards to all the team….

Lisa, Mosman Park


Just a quick note to say thank you for the wonderful job you did with the room on Saturday night. It looked absolutely amazing and the attention to detail was second to none. Everyone commented on how fabulous everything looked from the table runners to the lolly bar (which was a huge hit especially with the kids)…I couldn’t have asked for anything more – it was just perfect. I’ll definitely be in touch for our next event!

Rebecca, Kirribilli


Emma and I just wanted to say thank you so much. The catering was outstanding. Debbie and Denise were fantastic so lovely and just great to have around. Griffin and Adam were great too, just so happy, everyone had a great afternoon and commented on how great the place looked and the food 😃😃. The place look gorgeous I’ll put photos on your fb page.Thanks again xxxx

Sue Alessio, Delahey, Melbourne


Please pass on my appreciation to Gayle for the wonderful job she did setting up my party. Flowers and the candles gorgeous! Placing the furniture around our pool looked great. It was all amazing.

Thank you, thank you!

Michelle, Chermside, Brisbane


Just a quick thank you for Saturday! You and the boys were awesome and everyone was raving how good the house looked!

Lynda Ryan, Glen Waverley


We had an absolutely wonderful time all thanks to you and your team working so hard. It was truly magical despite the monsoon!

Rob says we should do it again next year!

Amanda Rutherford, Lidcombe Sydney


Thank you very much for helping us make the party a special and memorable evening. You all did a great job on the evening and allowed Heather and I to spend time with our guests rather than run around trying to keep the show on track.

We (have and) will be recommending to you to others looking to hold their own perfect party.

John Balass, Wahroonga Sydney


Just a thank you email for Jake and Matt that were in charge of the bar at my son’s 21st on the 29th November. They were excellent, very polite and well mannered. Some of my guests have come back to me and said that the boys were very professional.

Lisa Panzarino, Pascoe Vale


Wish we could do it all again……….went way too quickly and didn’t really chat to anyone, the nature of the beast when it is your own party!!

We thought you and the team did a wonderful job, I know there is huge amounts of work that goes into a party/event and we were absolutely delighted with what you produced. Too bad the set up isn’t as quick as the pull down.

Debra & Rob, Queenscliffe


Allison Barrett from My Perfect Party was impressive in her attention to detail during the preparation for our safari inspired joint 50th birthday dinner celebration.

From our initial enquiry via the MPP website and our first onsite meeting, Allison provided creative ideas, high quality styling (including beautiful glassware, tableware, crockery and cutlery), prepared amazing floral decorations and coordinated the event with minimal input from us.

Her recommendations to use DJ Rick and Chef Julio from At Your Table did not disappoint and all of our 40 guests had a wonderful time. We have never received so many personal thank you notes for an event and this was in large part due to Allison and her team.

We highly recommend Allison and My Perfect Party for your next event.

Jenny, Kirribilli


Thank you My Perfect Party team for a truly special night for my 21st. You transformed my backyard into a stunning vintage garden setting with amazing decorations styled with exceptional detail. Having Allison organise everything was such a relief with the stress of uni and work, and with everything in her hands I couldn’t have ask for a better result. It looked incredible and my guests were very impressed, Thanks again!”.

Olivia Williams, Beecroft


Everything was so seamless and I felt that I could trust you to take care of things – I think that is the biggest compliment I could pay you as I am not normally one who delegates very well. One of my friends had got tonic instead of lemonade in her glass and she came and told me – immediate reaction was to go and change it…. But I stopped myself and pointed out Jess and suggested she go and ask her to change it.

Liz Cruikshank, Shenton Park, Perth


♥ I wanted to say a BIG thank you to you and your team. I had the most wonderful day, didn’t worry about a thing and everything was perfectly executed. Honestly, you made such a difference to my sanity!

Thanks again,

Lou & Simon, married 29 November 2013 at Bronte SLSC


I recently celebrated my 60th Birthday and as you do, I went a bit overboard. That being said, if it was not for Alison Barrett and her team at My Perfect Party I’d still be organizing the event. My brief to Alison was I want to be able to enjoy my own party, and I did. MPP made everything run like clockwork, the invitations, the theme, the staff, the food, the drinks, the music, the venue and the cleaning up. My guests were so impressed with the event they are still talking about it weeks later. So this is the new benchmark for my party’s and I will only use MPP.

Thanks Alison and the team at MPP, you’re the best.

Sincerely,

Caneva, Jon Caneva, Melbourne


I engaged My Perfect Party to assist with an event at my home for my wife’s 40th.

MPP helped to come up with a concept for the evening, hired chefs, bar and wait staff to provide amazing catering and the perfect atmosphere. Allison and the team ensured that everything went off according to plan and created a special and memorable night for our occasion.They made pack down and even cleaning up a pleasure. Highly recommend MPP for any of your event needs; an absolute pleasure to deal with and highly professional.

Rodney Grunseit, Bondi


Our party went really well and Will’s friends and ours all had a great time. Al and Debbie did a wonderful job as usual. it was a pleasure to have everything run so smoothly.

Thanks you,

Jenny Godson, Surrey Hills, Melbourne


Allison we can’t thank you enough everything was amazing last night I have had so many texts and calls this morning saying how incredible it was thanks to you. can’t wait for the Xmas party thank you thank you thank you.

Amy, VML


I just wanted to let you know that the party was a success and Debbie, Caitlin and Griffin worked extremely hard in making it look spectacular. They went out of their way to set up and nothing was too much for them to do.

Again a big thank you and i hope you use your services again.

P.S. Maree is a beautiful woman and she went out of her way to accommodate and chase up quotes when needed.

Vicki M, Pascoe Vale


WOW….I don’t know how to thank you enough for making my party perfect in every respect. Right from the beginning I felt that you really understood what we were trying to achieve and you absolutely nailed it!!

Apart from the weather, there was nothing I would have done differently – and it exceeded all expectations.Thanks once again to you and your team…..you truly did a sensational job. We will definitely be keeping your details close at hand for any future events and you have a huge advocate in me and many of the people that attended my party.

Natasha, Walsh Bay


♥ My Perfect Party completely transformed our house into the coolest environment to celebrate our recent Vegas wedding! Amazing decorations, flowers, lighting, accessories gave it a perfectly edgy vibe. Allison really exceeded our expectations with the whole set up, including the bar area and glassware…

it looked incredible and our guests were so impressed. Set the scene for exactly the party we wanted to have – thank you!

Sarah & Drew, post Vegas wedding party 25 May 2013


Everything ran superbly smoothly from start to finish with a minimum of stress for us. The house was transformed and the atmosphere better than we could have hoped for. We were able to fully enjoy our special night and seeing our friends without worrying about anything.

Thanks so much

Hamish & Grace, Randwick, 40th birthday & 10th wedding anniversary


♥ Thank you My Perfect Party for a truly wonderful job on our wedding reception decoration. Nothing was too much trouble for you guys and you were an absolute pleasure to deal with throughout. Thank you for all your hard work and delivering such a beautiful room for our special day. I will be recommending you to all my friends!

Carly, Bondi


♥ Thank you Allison for being there for us on the day of our wedding. Knowing that you were able to style the reception venue, while we were preparing for the ceremony, was such a blessing.

You followed our instructions perfectly and the room looked just as we had imagined it. Thank you again, we will definitely recommend you to our family and friends.

Megan & Adam, married in Sydney on 25 February, 2013


Allison, I would like to thank you very much for organising my 50th on Saturday night. I was extremely impressed with the attention to detail with which the night was planned and executed.

I was also very happy with the people who were helping on the night. Both Stuart and Adam were very efficient but also very pleasant. Julie was fantastic in keeping things going with very little input needed from me. Before Saturday night, the thought of having someone there making sure that everything ran smoothly had not really entered my mind; now I will never throw another party without someone like Julie.

And, of course, my thanks to you for arranging everything. I had not expected the attention to detail that you showed. Everything was as I expected and much more. All of your decorating really helped make the night seem more than it might have been.

And, ultimately, I was able to relax and enjoy myself in a way I have never been able to at my own party. All I needed to do was enjoy myself knowing that everything was under control, most particularly under the control of people I trusted.

Again, thank you for your help. You turned the night from one of work and worry into one of relaxation and enjoyment. Jen also has commented on how much easier the night was than it would have been without your help.

Peter Jeffriess, Petersham


♥ I cannot thank Debbie and Allison enough for the amazing job they both did in the lead up to and the day of the most important day of my life, my wedding. Their ideas, execution and support had no limits and I was completely blown away with the way the day turned out, they exceeded my expectations in every way possible. To say it was perfect is an understatement.

Jessica & Dan Hawkins, Married in Melbourne, 9 February 2013


♥ Thank you very much for your hard work yesterday. The venue looked stunning and made the atmosphere of the day very pleasant, and we are most grateful to you and your team. Please pass on our thanks to them also. We loved the way you were able to make it so personal and the children’s corner was a big success. We had lots of comments about that!!

It was a very happy day for us all, and we would have no hesitation in recommending MPP to others, and in fact had a couple of queries on the day.It was lovely to meet you, and once again our sincere thanks.

Felicity, post Vegas Wedding


Again, thank you for my event, I really enjoyed it, and the night went very smoothly and everyone loved the food.

Erin, Tarragindi, Brisbane


Allison,I just wanted to say on behalf of my mother and I, a huge thank you for the wonderful job you and your team did today. We were extremely grateful for all the hard, hands on work you did and your wonderful style. You executed our dream of the party beautifully and it couldn’t have gone more perfectly. I have been receiving messages all afternoon about how wonderful the party was, you made us look very good. It was also nice to be able to speak with everybody.

So a very big thank you and we look forward to working with you in the future.

Shannon, Como


Maree and Allison, what a sensational night! Everyone had an absolute ball! and thanks again for everything!

You now have 12 months to think of how we can beat that!

Studio Neon is an absolute hidden GEM and Aaron and the boys were sensational and let’s not forget Bernie who sang up a storm.

Joey Templin, Club Med Head Office, Sydney


We had the pleasure of dealing with Allison of My Perfect Party who decorated the Coogee Surf Life Saving Club for our 2012 Staff Christmas Party.

We had a great experience with Allison and will definitely be using her for other functions that we may have in the future. Not only did Allison provide a beautifully decorated area, Allison also kept the cost under budget and also donated many items at no extra cost to ensure that everything looked fantastic. We found that it was very easy to work Allison and once I explained the look I was going for, she knew exactly what we wanted and came up with fantastic additional ideas as well.

Allison showed exemplary skills and utmost professionalism and would highly recommend her to other as a brilliant party planner!!!

Rebecca McManus, McGrath Estate Agents, Coogee


I cannot recommend My Perfect Party highly enough. I’ve never used a party planner before but it was a revelation! The whole event was planned perfectly and everything ran to plan. It made the evening so much more enjoyable and stress-free and it it was a truly memorable birthday party. Our house has never looked so good, the decorations were great and transformed our downstairs into a sophisticated but groovy party space, exactly as I’d hoped. All our guests commented on how wonderful the food was and the custom made cake not only looked great but it tasted divine too! Thank you so much for everything.

Emma, Balgowlah


The guests had been invited before the enormity of it all dawned on us! We realised help was needed and fast. Step in Allison – miracle worker!! All our stress dissipated and Allison took control, styling the house so beautifully that the guests are still raving. Every little detail was thought through and as a result the party was a resounding success. Thank you Allison for truly making a perfect party.

Rachel & Brett, Willoughby


♥ Myperfectparty did a wonderful job doing everything to make my wedding proposal incredible. From the setting to the food and wine, the music and all else they did a fabulous job. Thank you Allison for making it such a day to remember.

Lachie, wedding proposal


What a relief it was for me to hire the support and help of Allison and her team. As a full time worker who not only works long hours but hardly has any personal time, Allison was such an integral part of planning my 30th birthday party.

Tessa, Surry Hills


Absolutely fantastic party, I could not have done it without you and your vision.

Kerri, Queenscliffe


Thanks once again for everything on Saturday – it couldn’t have gone any better!!

Sarah, Point Cook


Many thanks to you for your ideas, organisation and effort in helping to put together such a great party for Greg’s 50th birthday.

You were so friendly, pleasant and calm and went about your work effortlessly.

Many people commented on how good the entertainment area looked and your ideas in bringing it to life were very creative.

Next party – your’e on!

Greg & Fiona Becker, Connells Point


Hi Allison,

Thanks again for all you did to make the party great!

Have a great New Year and hope 2012 brings you lots of business and wonderful new clients.

Your work is wonderful, thank you so much. The girls loved working with you too!

Mary Leckie, Killara


Thank you for everything you helped with for our event on Friday.

The table looked fantastic and you were not only professional but a real pleasure to deal with.

The night was fantastic, Nick (food) was amazing and Lee and Lou (wait staff) were professional, polite and fantastic on the night.

We will certainly use you in the future.

Michelle Hogan, NineMSN


I have to be honest, we didn’t think we needed a ‘party planner’ to help with Phil’s 50th – but we are so very pleased we hired your services.

From the advice on styling our backyard to how much alcohol we needed to buy AND to all the work you did on the day to set up everything – it was the best money we’ve ever spent.

Thank you Al. We, our family and our friends were most impressed by My Perfect Party.

Angela and Phlip, Paddington


My Perfect Party, well it truly was my perfect party. I have never felt so special as I did on Saturday night. What a perfect night it was and I have you to thank so very much for such an amazing job.

Your attention to detail from start to finish, your professional yet personal guidance to help us make the right choices for the best outcome were remarkable. So many wonderful comments from our guests and our stress free composure during the night knowing you had it all under control, meant we had a fantastic time at my 50th birthday party and I know this was only possible because of you.

The catering by Nick from At Your Table was exquisite, an absolute experience in itself. The food was beautifully presented, plentiful and perfectly timed during the evening, he was a machine in the kitchen.

Michael and I won’t hesitate to seek your services again for our special occasions and I know you’ve made a big impression on our guests, so I look forward to crossing paths with you in the future.

Many thanks and kind regards,

Maria, Barden Ridge


The small dinner party was celebrating my parent’s 60th wedding anniversary. Allison’s table presentation, complete with flowers and candles on the table and around the room created an idyllic mood. Everyone felt that Allison’s sympathetic attention to the guests and the tantalising offerings from the chef, Simon from At Your Table, came from family friends.

Thanks again for making everyone feel very special,

Cliff, Turramurra


Thanks My Perfect Party for coming to the rescue at short notice. We didn’t anticipate how many chairs and glasses we needed for our informal wedding party on the beach – we were lucky to find you on google and you are now saved in our favourites. No other party hire would have delivered them on Sunday morning at 8am. We will only use you guys for party hire and other party services we require in the future.

Thank you.

John & Sandy, South Cronulla


To Julie at My Perfect Party … I just wanted to send you a short note to express our delight with your assistance last Saturday night at our sons 21st.

You were a real help to Lind and I, with complete control over the bar area and constantly ensuring that our guests had drinks and anything they required and your assistance in the kitchen was god sent.

We had so many comments about your pleasant nature and we all enjoyed working with you immensely. Your warm nature, great attitude and work ethic make you a great asset to the organization you work for.

Thanks you very much and keep up the great work,

John, Hoxton Park


Hi Allison – thanks for helping me put on my housewarming party last week. I thought the ocean views from my apartment would be ‘decoration’ enough but the way you styled the living room and balcony was sensational. The food was delicious and service was excellent. I couldn’t have organised the party on my own – you definitely made it a great party. And thanks for your wait staff for cleaning everything up afterwards.

Thank you.

Christopher, Cronulla


Thanks for all your help prior, during and after the party. It was great to have you on board and would recommend you to anyone.

I appreciated the help and assistance you gave me. Also, thanks to Greg for checking on the electrical work for the day.

Feedback James has received is that his friends want him to have another party!

Thanks again,

Sarah O’Brien, Pymble


A great time was had by all on Saturday – your cocktail barman, Brett was great, very easy to deal with and most importantly he kept the cocktails coming

Thanks again for all your assistance, should we or anyone else we know be needing party assistance again then we know who to call!

Paul Newman, Balmain


♥ Allison and MyPerfectParty did a wonderful job styling our wedding at Rose Bay Park Beach and reception at Pier Restaurant. We had a particular idea which we presented to Allison and she developed it into an incredibly unique, fun experience for us and for our guests. Thanks Al, we loved what you did for us!

Thanks again for everything! Will continue to recommend you to friends.

Naveen & Tris, married in Rosebay


I just wanted to drop you a note to say how fantastic our engagement party was, the space looked amazing, the food was spectacular (and with so many critical industry people it was really important to us that it was).

You ticked every box and for that we thank you and the whole team! We would strongly recommend you to our friends and we really hope to be able to book again soon!

Thank you for all of your hard work! Fancy doing the wedding?

Kylie Brett – Moët Hennessy


Delicious authentic food, coupled with gorgeous outfits and service with the most beautiful smiles.

At Your Table was the perfect compliment to my Moroccan rooftop soiree. Having a personal chef meant that I could sit back and enjoy my guest’s company without the stress of tending to the kitchen. It also provided a far more personalised approach to a night out. I give my sincere recommendations.

Chloe Rickard – Jungle boys


Certainly was an amazing party! I can't thank Allison & her team enough for making it a truly memorable night. I didn't have to worry about anything on the night except for having a good time.

They took care of everything & exceeded my expectations, they went above & beyond.

My daughter had a 16th she'll be grateful for for ever.

Fun night had by all. Thank you "My Perfect Party". You live up to your name!

Amanda, Beaumaris


Thank you so much for your impeccable and exception service for our party? You made our night a wonderful success everyone commented on your beautiful presentation and clean up was incredible! Kind regards Deborah

Deborah's Party


I wanted to thank you again so very much for creating an amazing disco scene for Emma's 21st. The room looked absolutely fantastic. It was better than I could have imagined.

The attention to detail from the entry to bar set up was spot on, just so good!

The Shugg Family


What can I say about Allison and her team from My Perfect Party. I knew from the initial consultation to the delivery that we had someone special & professional looking after us. Her attention to detail is of a very high standard and together we came up with a most beautiful Bridal Shower event. She guided us through every step of the way and her suggestions and recommendations were very appreciated. Allison and her team took care of everything from set up to the organisation, to clean up.

Hi Natalie, I just wanted to say a big thank you again for everything you did to make Noah's first birthday so memorable! I literally cried like a million times, everything was perfect. Thank you a million times over.

Lisa.

Lisa, Gold Coast


Brilliant! Thank you for the most amazing set up and all your organisation. I've never been so calm and relaxed before a party and you don't know how much I actually needed to give the reins to someone else at this time.

Thank you.

Sue, Brighton


Once again, thank you! You just know how to take over our house and nail the brief. The food, decor and thought behind our 'Hamptons Christmas' party was amazing. I can't fault anything. Can't wait to work with you and the team again x
