Hosting a party is a great way to celebrate special occasion like birthdays, holidays, promotions and even baby showers. One thing we must keep in mind with regards to a birthday party and perhaps any other party is that parties are meant to bring people TOGETHER and have FUN. With this in mind, whether you are organizing a small house party or a city packed one, the main motive should be to bring people together for the fun aspect of it. However, it can be stressful if you don't know where to start. Use these essential tips to help you plan your next memorable and super fun party.
YOU'VE GOT TO BE CREATIVE!
Organizing a parties has and always will be about creativity. So whether you hire a group of people to cater for every part of the party or you will be doing it yourself, one thing that is a a must is CREATIVITY. You've got to creative in all aspects;
DECOR
When decorating, less can be more. Its simple to create a visually impactful setting with just a few well placed candles and flowers. One small bouquet of flowers in your entryway or on the mantel is enough to denote this is a special event. If your party is outdoor, gather flowers from your garden and put them into simple glass jars on each table. Twinkle lights over the buffet or beverage station brings a festive feel and will set your party in the right and fun part.
DRESS CODE
After all , we are just being creative around here right?
What would be so wrong with specifying a dress code like an all white party or a sneakers party or anything. BE CREATIVE! Trust me this gets guests feeling a little extra excited coming to the party
BUDGET
Of course we cant have a fun filled party without having to spend some cash right?
With that in the bigger picture, one thing we would have to consider seriously is how much we are willing to spend on our party. But of course two major things that largely determines how much we spend is;
Number of expected guests
The class of guests attending. (eg. children, teenagers, adults, office workers)
Avoid overspending by having a budget set before starting your birthday party planning
THE "BYO" TRICK
The class of guests attending. ( eg. children, teenagers, adults, office workers)he " Bring Your Own" trick. Friends love the opportunity to bring something to share.
Encourage your guests to bring their favorite drink along when coming or a favorite game or an item for entertainment. You don't need to go all out. Guests will feel special since they will have the opportunity to contribute and share their own special touch.
FOOD OPTIONS
From cocktail parties to formal dinner parties to city packed parties and small house parties, the food is often the holding point. When planning your menu consider options that fit your budget.
You can still serve an elegant sit-down meal on a budget and have an unforgettable party. If you want to host a memorable birthday, you must definitely think about food. Of course as the hostess,you might not have tons of time to play the role of a cook too, so it is a great idea to assign an expert whiles you cater for other more involving duties on your list.
TAKE A FEW COURSES
This here is a bonus tip to the birthday boy/girl. We all know even if our birthday is the last day of the month, the excitement kicks in right from the start of the month. And since its your birthday , why wont you give yourself a birthday treat of learning to cook a new meal or a new dance move or perhaps a song and keep practicing lets say 2 weeks before the birthday. Who knows, you might have have perfected it by then. And that becomes your own birthday present"
GIVE EVERYONE A SPECIAL ROLE
One way to make sure this particular party stays in the memories of the guests forever is to assign to everyone in afriendly manner a role they will be so excited to play. With this everyone feels so special at the
party since their idea plays a role one way or the other. (eg. getting a friend to take care of the invitations or perhaps sitting arrangements or anything)

EXTRAS
Stuffs like good music, photographs and fun games will be a final nailing for every party.
Playing the right selection of songs from scratch to end will just keep guests fired up till the party is over. Hiring a DJ for this will be more than helpful since they can switch up the tune of the music to fit the atmosphere at any time.
Going one step ahead to hire a professional photographer to keep record of all the ups and downs, smiles, and all that will keep timeless memories of the event
