When selecting entertainment for your party, consider the theme. Also consider your budget, because you can have a mime, a magician, a caricaturist, and you can have a petting zoo. Depending on where you live, you could even have seals delivered to swim in your pool. All this is possible, but your budget and the duration of the party is important as to who you want to have for entertainment. Jugglers are fun, mimes are great to meet the guest and to give them directions into the party because they can't speak. So choosing the entertainment is pretty much going to come down to budget and your theme.
