What's In a Name? a LOT....SPArties is a Federally Trademarked Term!

Did you know that SPArties is a federally trademarked term, registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office? Our federal registration number is 2957068. That's what the little ® that you see on all of our material means.

What Does This Mean To You? Nothing, unless you try or want to use the term for your own business, product or service...YOU CAN'T! Unless you are one of our clients promoting your event, or a registered reseller of OUR products and services, using our business to service your events, you CAN NOT use the term SPArty/SPArties in ANY way, shape, or form on ANY of your material - printed, verbally, electronically...NOTHING!

"SPArty" or "SPArties" is NOT a word or term. It is NOT found in a dictionary. It is NOT a common noun, but rather a PROPER noun - a "name" that we use, and that has been federally trademarked, and we own the rights to. It does not matter how you do your taxes, or how you have your business set up (such as an LLC, S Corp, C Corp etc.), or the U.S. geographic state that you operate your product or service in. It is a term that we have FEDERALLY trademarked and own. It is a BRAND, such as NIKE or Juicy is. It works just like bigger names such as AVON, Macys, IBM, Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks, or Dell, and our trademark carries the same weight and value as theirs does. Just as you can't open a business, start a service, or product that you would use any of those names/terms in, you CAN'T use ours!


This includes a combination of the term(s)... you can NOT add it on to something else. For example:ABC's SPArties is NOT permissible..."ABC's Spa Parties" is fine"SPArty People" in NOT permissible..."Spa Party People" is fine

We WILL prosecute and bring legal action against any individual or organization who is using the term in any way. Such actions will include, but are not limited, cease and desist against your business and all marketing/promotional and corporate identity materials such as menus, web sites, domain names and e-mails addresses, postcards, signage, etc. and also recovery of any fees that you benefited from by charging the public, while using our name. Please contact our office, the US Patent and Trademark Office, or your own attorney for further details.
