Planning the perfect party

Posted on February 7, 2023February 7, 2023 by Juggle

Planning a party can be a daunting task, but it doesn’t have to be! With the right planning and preparation, you can make sure your party is a hit. From deciding on the guest list to choosing decorations and activities, there are plenty of things to consider when planning a successful event. In this article, we’ll discuss some tips and tricks on how to plan an unforgettable party. From setting the budget to creating the perfect atmosphere, we’ll help you make sure your guests have an amazing time!

Set The Budget

Write down the total amount you want to spend on the whole party.  This needs to be what you feel comfortable with and can afford.  It doesn’t matter how well off you are, you will still only want to spend a certain amount on an event.  Likewise, if you are celebrating on a shoestring, you need to know straightaway what you can afford.

As you spend/book things, make sure you take it off your budgeted amount so you know what you have left.

Guest List

Always write your guest list first.  This will show you how big your party venue needs to be, how much food you need to order, and importantly what your budget will look like.  If your list looks too many for your budget, you will need to either pare down the guest list, or consider different options – bring your own food for example, rather than a catered buffet.

Venue

When it comes to choosing a party venue, there are many factors to consider. From the size and layout of the space, to the amenities available and the cost, finding the perfect venue for your event can be a daunting task. Fortunately, with careful planning and research, you can find a venue that meets all your needs and fits within your budget.  It should be a place that is comfortable, spacious, and accommodating to all your guests.

Do you need a big space, or a small space?  Is it a huge event where you need to book something really special?  Take a look at Square Meal UK who have a large selection of fantastic places for event or party hire.  Look at the images of the venue, does it look like it will suit your party theme?  Then check out the number of people it holds – this is important as you can’t go over.  You can contact the companies directly through the website to get prices and more information.  Collate all of these in a list so you can compare them all – make a list of pro’s and cons before you pick your perfect venue.

Food and Drink

Hosting an open bar can be a great way to make your event special and memorable. It can add a touch of luxury and sophistication to any gathering, whether it’s a wedding reception, corporate event, or birthday party. However, there are some important considerations to keep in mind when deciding if an open bar is the right choice for your occasion. Budget is obviously the key issue – only pick this if you know you have a big budget.

For food, you could decide to cater yourself, by getting friends and family involved. Or you could even ask guests to bring a dish with them. Alternatively you can get amazingly catered events, or trendy carts with things like hog roasts and chocolate fountains.

We hope your party goes really well!
