Then we just went through the whole place ourselves and at our own time. 30 mins is stupid not enough time on a busy wkend, u need an hr atleast. Then after we were done we went to a mcds playland where I offered to buy all the kids lunch and again parents got their own but we were a small group so all the families just bought theirs and I brought the presents and cupcakes in to do after we ate and they got to play again at the playland. U can also do the cupcakes presents there ur self just grab a table in the restruant.
I don't see how it can be a liability thing when they have said we can add on all the adults for an extra $10 each. So they are ok with the adults coming...but they have to pay on top of the party fee which was for 10 kids ad 2 adults. We just want to switch it to 12 people total kids and adults instead of the set 10:2.

We've requested a refund. I am doubtful they will agree. They'd have 4 weeks to fill the party spot. Then we will just do a home party here and bring our daughter there on our own. It just seems like a money grab to me to make us pay for adults when we are bringing less kids than allotted.
