THE AK EXPERIENCE

"Thank you again so much for bringing the beautiful alpacas to our wedding on 5th of May, it seriously made my day! We've had so many comments from people on how amazing that it was that we had alpacas at our wedding! And of course, we have been over the moon to share your business with our friends and anyone who has asked, it was seriously just amazing.

Thank you again so so so much. It made our special day so much more special!"

Chloe Nadile

Bride, Kenthurst

"Honestly, don't even look anywhere else! Just book them! 10/10, A+++!!! Maria was so lovely to deal with! Considering these social distancing times, she really made the most of it! I really do appreciate her and her team ❤❤❤. Thank you!!"

Jules Newgen

"Thanks so much for everything you did to make National Simultaneous Storytime such a success. EVERYONE loves your alpacas!! They are truly beautiful, unique animals and they added such a special element to the event. I'm so thankful for all your involvement - from the StoryBox Library filming all the way through to the big day itself. 

 

Casper and Milo were brilliant as Macca and Al! I'm so happy you were able to bring them along to The State Library. A definite first! And it was fantastic to see the others down in Canberra with the Governor-General!"

 

Matt Cosgrove

"Sarah and I would just love to extend our biggest thank you for having the Lads at our wedding! We are extremely honoured that you all were part of the whole process AND we definitely made the right choice in having you there. We absolutely loved how easy going you both were and how well you worked together with ourselves and other Guests. You made us feel really comfortable the whole time and we're really appreciative that you even accommodated the numerous photo requests!

Our guests were all raving about you and Jaspers (who never had alpacas on-site before) found it wonderful. Thank you for your support and guidance all the way from our first email, numerous follow-up emails, to the final day itself.

 

Thank you so much and we will definitely recommend you to our friends and family.

 

Thank you once again!!!

I also appreciated everything you did on the day - you were all very calm and easy going even faced with the adversity of wet weather.

The photos are so much fun, because as the bride I missed some of the fun interactions at the beginning! I love them all.

I really appreciated all your communication and help throughout. We will always remember what an incredible day we had and your involvement was a huge part of that.

Best surprise [for guests] ever and such sweet natured alpacas. Thanks for helping to make our wedding the best day of our life."

It has continued to be the talk of town with people who couldn’t get there wanting to see photos. Our patients just loved it. It truly was a perfect visit from my perspective, you were both so lovely with our patients and Chai and Ko were absolutely amazing.

We would of course love you to visit again, any time,...., we would be thrilled. Thanks again so much – and I  think Ko and Chai deserve an extra carrot tonight!"

Debra Fowler

"Maria and Kent are the nicest people I ever met and it was great fun to have Co - the Alpaca around us. He is really cute and friendly. His presence really elaborated our day at the park. I am sure I will invite Alpacas to my party again when i have kids, I bet they will love it".

Katie Kennedy

WedShed Team Member

"Had my pre wedding photoshoot with Alpaca Kisses and the company owners have been over and above helpful and accomodating since day one of my contact with them. They suggested a beautiful location called Hidden Valley for the photoshoot (near Blue Mountains) and managed all the permissions required for photography there with the owners of the cottages on that land (this was something they did without me even having to ask them). They brought Chai and Co (the 2 alpacas) and the alpacas were so well behaved and well managed by by the handlers :) (and super cute too!).
The company also went out of their way to let me and my partner use the cottages on the location (they communicated with the owners of the cottages) to allow us to change in there to make it easy for us. The owners also assisted in suggesting some amazing location shots against the cottage, the dam, the greenery. It was an absolutely amazing experience and I have nothing but gratitude to offer with everything they did for us."

"You made our Sunday spectacular!

 

We loved every minute. The whole experience was professional. Can't improve!

 

We absolutely loved having Co and Milo (and of course, Maria, Kent, and Chloe) as our VIP guests for our special event.

 

From the first enquiry email through to our farewell in the lift, every minute was beyond expectation. Maria is a natural with young children - bucketloads of patience and grace. We would highly recommend having Alpaca Kisses add some magic to your special occasion. xxx"

Karynne Courts

"We had Co visit our office, which was great therapy for our team! In a stressful work environment and daily routine of work, having a beautiful animal like Co visit our office was wonderful! It helped to ‘ground’ us remember the simple and important things in life. It helped our team to refocus and be more productive.

 

We also had Co attend a children’s Christmas party, which was one of the best things we did! Maria and Co’s gentle nature attracted the joy and excitement of the children (and adults) at the event.

 

I would highly recommend Co attending your next event!"

Jennifer Bulley

Acting Program Manager / Wesley Dalmar / Hawkesbury - Wesley Mission

"Spending time with Milo and Co was such a lovely and memorable experience for us. Your team went above and beyond what we’d expected (Milo was such a pleasant surprise!) and made the day that much more magical."

"Milo and Co were the stars of our shoot for National Simultaneous Storytime 2019... with a supporting cast of Jimmy Giggle and Matt Cosgrove. The alpacas played their parts beautifully and we absolutely loved having them on set. Maria and Kent handled Milo and Co beautifully on the day, even with a huge crowd of passers-by trying to get a peek of alpacas in a library! Thank you, Alpaca Kisses, for a great experience and for staying calm in what could have been a chaotic day of filming with alpacas, cameras, kids and books."

Savannah Indigo

Social Media and Production Assistant, Story Box Library

"Maria and Kent were lovely to talk with and did everything possible to help me organise my surprise for my husband on our wedding day.

We absolutely loved them and so did the guests! You were so helpful with everything for the photos including holding my bouquet, re-arraning my train on my dress and everything I struggled with in the absence of bridesmaids due to our small wedding. 

 

We are so happy that we had alpacas for the wedding- best decision ever! 

 

Thank you again, we are now thinking of another excuse to get alpaca kisses!"

"Alpaca Kisses were absolutely amazing! Maria and Kent were so lovely and amazing to work with.

The alpacas were the best! They had such great temperaments and were definitely a highlight for our guests. Many people asked why we decided to have alpacas at our wedding, I think the better question is "why not?"

We have absolutely no regrets and cherish the memory immensely.

Oh my goodness!!!!! Maria this message only just came through to me! I can't believe you went via Katoomba to get to us yesterday. That is just above and beyond, and I will make sure the bride and groom know the effort you went to, to give her such a beautiful (unforgettable) experience.

Definitely recommend!"

 

Alana  Patchett

Friend of Bride

"Thank you, so much to you and your team yesterday. We and all the guests had so much fun interacting with the alpacas. Everyone loved them and I'm pretty sure most of our guests now have new profile photos featuring your alpacas.

 

Thank you, for being so lovely and accommodating during our photo session. Everyone was really thoughtful in helping us with holding our drinks to directions on how to stop Delilah from wanting to eat grass all the time (that was frankly very funny and cute though). Will send through some photos of the alpacas once we receive them from our photography team.

 

Thank you again for making our wedding day extra special and fun!"
