About us
The story so far...
Party Bliss is the brain child of Louise Rees and Nicola McCleave who set up their company in 2007. Both local business women and mothers they are like-minded people with lots of energy and innovative ideas and are passionate about their business which continues to go from strength to strength.
They have established themselves as one of the leaders in the field of children’s party planning, hosting and entertaining in North Wales, Shropshire, Cheshire, Merseyside and Manchester. They provide the highest quality of service and products, from the initial enquiry through every step of planning with the client, right through to the party accessories and of course the entertaining itself. They ensure that they are at the cutting edge of current trends and entertainment requirements and always absorb client feedback.
"Having our own children has meant that we are constantly updated with the latest popular characters, fashions, ideas, TV shows and music. Every party is different for us as each guest brings a new, fun element and energy to the session. We believe that Birthday's should be celebrated and have always planned and themed our own children's parties. Whatever the occasion, we feel that children should be the guests of honour, having fun, laughing and being creative".
They have now developed their business into event management, corporate entertainment and have broadened their Party Bliss product range. Their team also continues to grow and they are still in search of great people to join them in their success. They insist that all of the people on their team are dedicated, trustworthy, CRB checked and have the same energy, passion and enthusiasm that they do.
Both University graduates, Nicola and Louise have a wealth of experience between them and have both followed interesting career paths before embarking on their current adventure.
Having graduated in The History and Theory of Art, Design and Architecture, Nicola went on to work in Public Relations within the music industry in London. Going on to become a PR Director, she worked with numerous high profile artists, from The Spice Girls to Tom Jones, managing a team, orchestrating publicity campaigns, organising and overseeing photo shoots, launch parties and events. She eventually decided to step away from her career and dedicate her time to raising her daughter, gaining a Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy from the Westminster Pastoral Foundation in Kensington along the way.
Louise graduated in European Business Studies and has the equivalent degree in French, a diploma from the Chartered Institute of Marketing as well as being a fluent French speaker. She went on to enjoy a successful career in Marketing, creating publicity material, organising and running numerous trade shows, exhibitions and conferences. She too made the decision to leave in order to raise her three children, during which time she qualified as a gym instructor.
They both share a passion for music, dance and drama, something they have been involved with since childhood.
The Party Bliss vision is all encompassing with Nicola and Louise constantly initiating new business concepts, links and strategies. As well as running a highly successful party planning, hosting and entertaining branch, Party Bliss also has a dedicated Corporate Events team. They have developed strong ties to local government, charitable organisations and lottery funded projects, nurseries and clubs as well as creating strong relationships with large corporate companies, high profile clients and local businesses alike.
"We are constantly striving to improve and develop all aspects of our business. We are really proud of what we have achieved so far, but know that there are lots of dreams we have yet to fulfil. We have lots of new projects in the pipeline and look forward to building on our strong Party Bliss foundation. Sounds like hard work, but look how much we get to party!"
