Overview

Planning a party in Woodland Hills

Celine’s under-the-sea third birthday was in a Woodland Hills backyard. Her mum wanted the children in the pool and something for them to watch. We planned the afternoon around both: a lavender, turquoise and peach look that could get wet, and a mermaid who brought a bubble show nobody would leave.

Plenty of homes here have a pool, and a pool changes the plan before it changes the décor. We place the food, the seating and the play area so nobody carrying a plate has to edge past the water.

Heat shapes a party here too. Pierce College, in Woodland Hills, recorded 121°F in September 2020, the highest temperature ever measured in Los Angeles County. Summer parties need shade or an evening start.

The process

Planning with us in Woodland Hills

  1. We come and look

    A site visit is part of The Bubbly Experience. We check where the shade falls at the hour of your party and how the garden divides.

  2. We design and plan

    Mood board, palette, the table and the backdrop, then vendors, a floor plan and a timeline, depending on the package you choose.

  3. We run the day

    On The Bubbly Experience and The Final Pop, Francie and Ruta are onsite for setup, the party and the pack down.

Occasions

Celebrations we plan in Woodland Hills

Engagement parties

We plan these as small, styled gatherings, such as a dinner for both families around one long table.

Milestones and private parties

Big birthdays, anniversaries and graduations, often in the evening once the sun is off the yard.

The Bubbly Files

Celine’s party, and one just up the road

Celine’s birthday is our Woodland Hills Bubbly File. Santi’s was next door in Winnetka.

Working with us

Close to home, and honest about it

A Woodland Hills party is a short drive for us, so an early setup is easy.

We are also straight about our work. Celine’s party is our one Bubbly File in Woodland Hills so far, and the rest are a few miles away in Northridge, Winnetka, Reseda and Granada Hills.

Service area

Woodland Hills and the neighbourhoods around it

Woodland Hills sits at the southwest edge of the Valley. Tarzana is to the east, West Hills, Canoga Park and Winnetka to the north, Calabasas and Hidden Hills to the west, and the Santa Monica Mountains rise to the south.

Most parties here are at home. For a bigger group, Warner Center Park has picnic space, and a gathering there needs a permit from Los Angeles Recreation and Parks. There is no travel charge anywhere in Woodland Hills.

Good questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you charge travel to Woodland Hills?

No. Woodland Hills is part of the City of Los Angeles and inside Los Angeles County, where travel is always included.

We have a pool. Does that change the plan?

It changes the layout more than the design. We keep the food and the play area on the same side of the water, and if the children will be swimming, the timeline is built around it.

How do you handle the summer heat?

Shade first. We plan cover over the seating and the cake and suggest an evening start where the occasion allows. On The Bubbly Experience we source and book the shade for you.
