How to plan a birthday party

Below is a checklist of aspects to keep in mind when planning your very first party:

Pick a date

This is a simple one. First, check your friends’ and family’s schedules to make sure there are no conflicts with other parties, vacations, and more. Then, pick a day that works for you, barring any holidays!

Decide about location

A house is the easiest, of course, but you can also choose a mall café. In Singapore, there are many locations suitable for birthday parties/events, including cafes, family businesses, and even parks.

Which people will attend?

Pick your closest friends and family members first and think about who else you need to invite. Come up with a schedule by which you can meet these people.

Decide on the name of your party

This is a very fun part! The birthday boy/girl gets to pick the name of the party. For example, if it is your friend’s birthday, maybe you can make a pun on his/her name. Additionally, everyone present has to wear something related to the name of the party.

Decide on a theme (subject or occasion)

This is a very important part to consider. A birthday party needs to be fun and memorable, so think about what your family/friends are interested in. Moreover, you can have a theme that matches your friends’/family member’s personalities.

Choose activities

Activities are important to keep everyone busy and active. Go outside, have fun games inside, or even do another activity with just you and the birthday boy/girl.

Design a menu

The food and drinks are as important as the activities and games. Make sure your guests will enjoy what you prepare for them. Do not forget to make your menu balanced, with both food and drink. Make sure everyone is satisfied with their food. A birthday party is about celebrating the birthday boy/girl! So make sure the venue, menu, activities, and decorations will all be in consideration.

Birthday party packages
