Frequently Asked Questions

Everything parents and planners usually ask before the ponies arrive.

How do I book a party?

Send us your event details through the booking form below, or reach out by email or Instagram. We’ll confirm availability, help you pick the perfect package, and share a custom quote. A deposit reserves your date.

How far in advance should I book?

The earlier the better — weekends and peak season fill up fast. We recommend reaching out at least 3–4 weeks ahead, but always ask about last-minute dates; we’ll do our best to make magic happen.

What areas do you serve? Is there a travel fee?

We’re based in Southwest Florida and travel throughout the region to bring the ponies to you. A small travel fee may apply for locations outside our core area — share your address in the booking form and we’ll give you exact details.

How much space do you need?

A flat, grassy or firm area works best — roughly the size of a large driveway or a corner of a backyard or park. We’ll confirm specifics based on your package and pony count. Shade and trailer parking are a big help!

What ages can ride?

Our ponies are wonderful with all ages — from the littlest first-timers to the young at heart. The Enchanted Unicorn package is tailored for ages 3–8, and every other package welcomes everyone. A handler pairs each rider with the right pony on the day, and there’s always grooming, feeding, and photos for anyone who’d rather stay on the ground.

Are the ponies safe and well cared for?

Absolutely — our ponies are gentle, well-trained, and deeply loved. A trained handler stays with each pony at all times, leads every ride, and keeps things calm and safe. Their comfort and your children’s safety always come first.

What happens if it rains?

Florida weather can be unpredictable! If storms threaten your date, we’ll work with you to reschedule or adjust, always putting the children’s and ponies’ safety first. We’ll talk through a plan together when you book.

How much does it cost?

Every event is a little different, so we put together a custom quote based on your package, add-ons, guest count, and location. Send us your details and we’ll share pricing right away.

Do you do more than birthday parties?

Yes! We love schools and daycares, community events, festivals and markets, HOA gatherings, and photo sessions. If you have ponies and smiles in mind, we can probably make it happen — just ask.
