How is Your Birthday Party?!

A birthday is a big event for many reasons. It is a chance to get together with friends and family, celebrate, and make memories to last for years to come. Whether you are planning a Birthday Party for a friend or family member, an adult or a child, there are a few simple tips that you can follow that will help you make your birthday celebration a memorable one:

  1. Choose a date and time, and stick to it. Trying to accommodate everyone’s schedule is not only stressful, it is impossible. It is not uncommon for someone to have an event that will conflict with your party, and that is to be expected. Simply set a date and a time, and go from there!
  2. Choose the right location. If your house is small and you are expecting a large number of guests, then you may have to make arrangements to hold the party elsewhere. In addition, the weather in Pittsburgh can be temperamental, so if an outdoor party is planned, be sure to make accommodations should there be rain.
  3. Birthday Party Entertainment

  4. Choose a theme. The theme should be age-appropriate as well as catering to the likes of the Birthday Person. There are a number of themes that can apply to all ages, such as a tropical luau.
  5. Be sure to send out the invitations in a timely manner. You want to ensure that your guests know enough in advance to keep the date and time open, as well as have time to purchase a gift. If you have any special requests in place of gifts, be sure to note that on the invitations, such as “No presents required,” or “Donations in lieu of gifts to ____.”
  6. Plan the entertainment. If you have a specific choice of entertainment, it is important to book as far in advance as possible to ensure that you have your choice. If you are planning for multiple forms of entertainment, be sure to schedule them so that they don’t overlap.
