Party Planning in a Nutshell

Basic Steps to Planning your Party - I will post individual blogs going into depth for each topic, but for those of you who need a quick reference of what to do, here it is.

1. Select a general date for your party. This could be around a holiday, birthday, event, etc.
2. Determine your budget.
3. Set your number of invitees.
4. Secure a location.
5. Select the exact date and time.
6. Creative part. Theme, activites, menu, prizes, etc.
7. Send out save-the-dates and invitations.
8. Purchase supplies.
9. Set up.
