ABOUT

Hi, I’m Sharon, the Face & Artist Behind Event Buddies Scotland!

Professional Face Painter, Balloon Decor Stylist & Hollywood Glam Glitter Bar Hire

Hi there! I’m so glad you stopped by. If you’re looking to hire a local face painter or need luxury balloon styling that makes your guests say "wow," you are in exactly the right place.

I’m a professional artist and the creator of our signature Hollywood Glam Glitter Bar. Based right here in Edinburgh, I pack up my mobile kits and travel all across Glasgow, Fife, the Borders, and Central Scotland to bring high-end entertainment and bespoke event styling to life’s biggest celebrations.

When I'm not covered in biodegradable glitter or styling organic balloon arches, you can usually find me at home adoring my two little sidekicks—my absolute favourite Chihuahua Buddie and Coco the Lhasa Apso!

My Journey: 30 Years of Professional Event Entertainment

I didn't just stumble into the party industry; I’ve lived and breathed event entertainment and party services for over 30 years. Before launching Event Buddies Scotland, I spent decades working alongside premier party entertainment companies and top event agencies. I learned the ins and outs of what makes a celebration truly seamless, professional, and successful.

Ten years ago, I picked up my brushes and fell completely in love with the art of professional face painting. But the real game-changer happened when I discovered the wonderful world of festival glitter. I saw how much joy it brought to adults and kids alike, went solo, and created our popular Hollywood Glam Glitter Bar setup.

Today, I combine my deep industry experience with high-end artistry to offer premium party packages you won’t find anywhere else.

Specialising in Weddings, Corporate Events & Birthday Parties

I specialise in bringing a luxury, high-energy vibe to your venue. My absolute favourite bookings to work are:

  • Glamorous Hen Parties & Luxury Weddings: Giving brides, hens, and wedding guests a gorgeous, Instagram-ready festival look with our adult glitter bar hire.

  • High-Profile Corporate Functions & Galas: Adding a sophisticated, interactive event entertainment element that breaks the ice and gets everyone talking.

  • Vibrant Family Parties & Children's Birthdays: Transforming faces with vibrant, professional kids face painting and long-lasting glitter tattoos.

Because I am also a trained balloon stylist, I can frame my entertainment setups with stunning, bespoke balloon displays, custom props, and luxury sequin wall backdrops—giving you a flawless, coordinated look for your party theme.

Reliable, Insured & Professional Party Services across Scotland

With three decades in the industry, I pride myself on absolute reliability, pristine presentation, and a premium client experience. I am fully insured, use only the highest-quality, skin-safe cosmetic products, and treat every single celebration like it’s the most important date on my calendar.

I would love to bring a touch of Hollywood glam, balloon artistry, and sparkle to your next big day!
