The Top 5 ideas for any Birthday Party!

Ideas exist in the millions these days for party planners- as there are all kinds of companies, places, resources, and ways to plan the party. So how does one sift through the millions and millions of party themes, venue choices, and ideas? There is simply too much out there to choose from… What is a party planner to do?

This list was developed to help any parent, friend, or self planner figure out what to do for the upcoming celebration… It was created to take into consideration planning parties for all ages of birthday celebrants- and to appeal to guests of all ages.

They may be simple ideas- but they are the basics behind planning any party you may be planning.

That said we should be just about ready to reveal the TOP 5 Party Ideas.

Birthday Party Idea #5 – Remember Who you are the birthday party planning for.

Ask them what they want… This can sometimes be tricky if you are attempting to plan a surprise party, but pieces of information can be gathered by asking acquaintances, friends, or even through a sly conversation months or even years in advance…

Basically the fact is you are having a birthday party to celebrate an individuals existence, so the party should reflect the interests of that person.

Birthday Party Idea #4 – Consider who is invited to the party

You may be planning the party for the celebrant, but you better have entertainment & food that caters to everyone. Let’s say it is Joe’s 67th birthday – and Joe loves eating sardines. It can pretty much be assumed that not everyone else who comes to the party will have the same appreciation for sardines as does Joe. So while you should definitely keep Joe in mind and have some sardines for him, also have food available that appeals to all your guests.

Birthday Party Idea #3 – Set a budget

Everyone knows that a good party is one of those times when the budget can be a little elastic.., But if budget is tight, planning well in advance can help you to control costs, maximize savings, and save up for the expense of throwing a truly memorable event.

Birthday Party Idea #2 – Decide on a theme

Once you set the theme of any event you have something to work with. A theme gives a good focus when choosing foods, venues, decorations, invitations, and party favors. Yes. Happy Birthday is a perfectly great theme to have if you are planning a birthday party!

Birthday Party Idea #1 – Get the best entertainment you can find.

Entertainment makes any birthday party- whether you are planning a party for a kid, an adult, or a teenager- the entertainment is often the most important piece of the puzzle. While budget conscious party planners may always solely seek out the cheapest entertainment options, typically saving a couple bucks in this realm can cost you more than you can imagine.

Always hire professional entertainers, venues, and providers who carry insurance.

While there are all kinds of cheap deals and “at home businesses” who can be cost effective, if they deliver an uninsured item or service, provide an entertainer with no criminal background check, or are simply unlicensed businesses- then you can end up doing something that is quite the opposite of celebrating on the birthday.
