My 10 year old is having her birthday in a outdoor park. Its not really near stores...
So I'm afraid a costco pizza would get cold on the drive.
Those cold croissant sandwiches (also at costco) look good, but I'm not sure 4th graders would be particularly excited to eat it.
I’m planning my husband’s 40th in December for about 55 people, including 16 kids. We’re torn between renting a venue for around $5k or hosting at home with a 20x20 heated tent in the backyard.
My husband prefers hosting at home and spending more on food and drinks. I’m leaning that way too, but I’m worried about the weather, space, and the tent looking thrown together rather than like a nice milestone celebration.
Has anyone done something similar? Would you host at home or just pay for the venue?
I watched one tutorial, and this is what it turned out like 😅 definitely not professional at all, and if I’m being honest the big 18 inch balloons intimidated me so I didn’t end up using them, so I’m sure I need to just learn how to incorporate those & this would look okay. Otherwise, does anyone have any suggestions or advice on how to make this look better?
I told my MIL I’d help with a baby shower & took on the task of attempting a balloon arch. I would just like to learn for personal reasons like birthday parties for my kids, and other events. Not interested in doing this as a side gig at all 😅
I’m looking for party ideas for my (soon to be) 12 year old boy! It’s tricky because he hates loud noises & gets overstimulated by some of the party places with tons of noise. We will have about 10 kiddos; he is new to his school and just making friends with everyone. It’s evenly split between boys & girls.
Amy ideas? 🙏
So my girls are Irish twins they’re going to be 3 & 4 this up coming month and I want to do a combined birthday party for them but I want a cute theme that incorporates their ages 3 & 4. I can’t think of anythinggggg 😭 anyone have any ideas?
Hi I’m turning 21 this month and I don’t know what to do to celebrate. I only have one friend and my boyfriend. I don’t know many people. I would only be inviting my bf and his brother and my friend. So just the four of us, I need ideas that won’t make me feel like a loser for not being able to drink when I turn 21 because I’m on probation.
I smoke weed but I live in Texas so that’s not an option unless I drive to New Mexico.
I am planning a baby shower and need advice on time. I was thinking a 3-8 on a Saturday providing a full supper meal and then 5 games and opening gifts. What do you think please help!
My wife and I (both 33F) are throwing a Halloween party. We’ve both been trying to put ourselves out there socially. We’ve met a good number of girlfriends and this will be the first time we’re integrating different groups…so some women will know each other, but many will not.
We’re naturally more drawn to female friendships. Basically resulting in about 16 women RSVPd so far and 4 men (mostly +1s).
Will this be weird at the party? Am I overthinking this? I feel like most women won’t care, but I’m wondering if the men will feel weird…
I’m having my birthday with around 10–15 people and I’ve left the planning WAY too late I’m hoping the party people of Reddit can save me!
The theme I’m thinking is basically “children’s birthday party… but adult version”. My friends are all super fun and always go all out, so I really want it to feel ridiculous, nostalgic and competitive rather than just a normal party with a few games.
So far I’m thinking:
Musical chairs
Pass the parcel (obviously with adult prizes/penalties)
Donut on a string
Charades
Simon Says
Pin the tail on the donkey
Balloon relay
Rock, Paper, Scissors tournament
Kahoot
Some nostalgic childhood food/snacks, but elevated for adults
I’m also maybe thinking of having prizes, drinking rules/penalties and maybe teams, but I feel like I’m missing some absolute classic childhood games that could be hilarious with adults.
What games would you add?! Or any ideas for decorations, food, prizes, costumes/dress code, ways to make the games more chaotic, or anything else that would make the whole thing feel like an actual childhood birthday party turned completely unhinged
I’m open to literally any ideas — especially games that are REALLY fun with 10–15 adults and involve drinking/competition.
Please help me make this the most ridiculous adult children’s birthday party possible
Is it ok to mix silver with gold in this context? Not sure how I feel about the yellowy gold flatware. The plates will be white and at the buffet stations. Options for flatware on slide 2. I also want to add the napkins and tablecloth are a near perfect match and don’t look like it in the photo.
