The Birthday Frenzy

Your birthday is the time when you have the license to go crazy, laugh, love and live it up because it is the day when you are the oldest you have ever been and the youngest you will ever be again. Planning a birthday party and deciding the venue for birthday party are the two most crucial steps. One needs to make mental checklists of all the prerequisites and at times this can become a little stressful and taxing.

If you plan to throw a small-scale party then your very own house can become the perfect location for all the fun and frolic. But, if you have bigger plans then you can opt for farm-houses, lawns or banquet halls. There are a lot of options for place for birthday party in Mumbai or say in any other metro city. The size of the venue depends upon the number of guests and the kind of activities that are to happen.

One should also keep in mind the distance of the venue and the feasibility of the guests. Usually the farm-houses are set in suburbs and commuting to such areas can be a task.

When renting a venue, you should always check the rules and regulations of the place. Whether loud music is permitted or not, the kind of food preferences: vegetarian, non-vegetarian. If you wish to have liquor in your party, then make sure to sought permissions beforehand. You should also enquire about the number of other parties that are to happen on the same day, if it is a location with multiple venues. A note of the exact size of the venue and time allotted should be made to avoid chaos later.

Make sure to clearly ask about all kinds of deposits and security amounts and whether they are refundable or not. Any last minute payment issues can cause embarrassing situations. All the other extra recurring costs should be enquired about.  To save a few bucks, you can also opt for packages and deals offered by them. You should also know about what’s included in the payment. Sometimes, the food is excluded and is separately charged.

If you plan to throw birthday parties for your kids then make it interesting by having a themed party filled with interesting activities and games. You can include exciting goodie bags and fun prizes. The food should be mess-free and preferably finger-food.  You can go really creative with the décor and have balloons of different animated characters, streamers, piñatas as the sky is your limit. You can order customized cake for the birthday boy or girl and can have a photograph printed on the cake or go for cartoon-shaped cakes of diverse flavors. One very important point to keep in mind is the safety of kids. Don’t go for metallic or glass cutlery and rather go for kid-friendly plastic or any other kind of cutlery. Make sure that the food is hygienic and healthy for the kids to have

A birthday party needs a lot of planning and plotting and therefore one should keep ample amount of time beforehand to organize a party of any magnitude whatsoever with minimum errors and great ease.
