When it comes to big events, there is no better reason to celebrate than a big birthday. Whether you’re coming of age or celebrating a long life of good health, parties make it the perfect occasion. But, it’s not always that easy to get the planning of a party right. There are many options to choose from, so we give you the best of them to help you decide how to celebrate:
Venue
Start with the venue. Are you looking for 21st Birthday function venues or somewhere to celebrate your love with your husband? The venue is key to the success of your event. You need the venue to be close enough to you and your guests that everyone will be able to attend. You might choose a place based on your budget or perhaps you have a place in mind that is special to you. Once you have booked the room, you will know how many people you can invite.
Catering
No party is complete without a few nibbles and drinks. Some parties include a full sit-down meal others have little more than a bowl of crisps on a counter. To make your party really special, consider hiring a caterer and waiting staff. The quality of the food available really does make a difference to how memorable your event will be. If you are celebrating, you might want to make a toast. Having some champagne served to the guests can make it extra special.
Surprise
Is your party going to be a surprise? Keeping a party a surprise during the planning phase is really difficult! Your guest of honor can easily become suspicious about where you are and what you’re doing during this time. Lying about it is not a good idea but openly ruining the surprise isn’t much fun either. The easiest way to plan a surprise is to share the responsibility around. Try to involve family members and friends to help. Keeping the guest of honor occupied is easier than always disappearing in mysterious circumstances.
Invites
Inviting the right people in the right way is key to keeping a party under control. Social media has been used and abused by party crashers. If you don’t want a house full of people who weren’t invited, try to keep your guest list contained. Formal paper-based invites are still helpful and using a reputable venue with door staff also prevents unwanted guests turning up.
Decorations
No party is complete without some spectacular decor. Balloons, streamers, glitter and confetti, are just some of the things you might want to consider. If the party is for your husband to celebrate your love together, you might choose some love-themed decorations like hearts. For a twenty-first birthday, there may be more era-inspired decor, like costumes from the year they were born.
A gathering of all your friends and family helps you to make the most of the special occasion; agree? Whether it’s a big or small venue, make your celebration huge with these tips and ideas.
