Frequently Asked Questions

Will all guests receive silhouettes?

While artists work quickly, silhouette cutting is an art form. Some guests may require more time, and others may be engaged in conversation. Most guests can be accommodated, but exact numbers cannot be guaranteed.

How many silhouettes can be cut during an event?

Typically, an artist can cut around 50 to 60 silhouettes in a 3 hour booking. Times vary slightly depending on guest interaction and the level of detail involved.

Can the cards be customised?

Yes. You can include logos, personal messages or event branding on the mount cards to turn each silhouette into a bespoke keepsake.

What should I consider when planning this entertainment?

  • Event timings
  • Branding or message design for mount cards
  • Estimated number of guests

Hi Leslie, Thanks so much for organising all the acts. Firstly, you as a company did an amazing job at organising everything and appreciate you being so communicative and supportive with this booking. Secondly, all the acts were great and have rated them as so below. Everyone was really personable and wanted to make our event as much of a success as we did which was amazing.

I recently hired Chosen Events Entertainment to help bring some fun and flair to our drinks reception, and they absolutely delivered. From start to finish, their service was seamless, professional, and refreshingly creative. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Chosen Events Entertainment and will definitely be using them again for future events.

It was the first time that the Club has used a similar service and the dancers were excellent and also able to flex their approach to meet our needs (as the stage space was limited and headset mics in short supply). We captured some fantastic photos that show just how much our employees enjoyed the event and all the dancers were friendly and helpful. It helped us to get into the party spirit and also set the Western theme/tone really well
