Two words: party boat! Nothing says awesome 18th birthday quite like hiring a party boat and partying till sunrise with sweeping Melbourne views all around! You can rent an entire yacht, or only a part of the boat, depending on your budget.
It depends on the venue’s policy. Some spaces allow you to build your unique setting from scratch while others have fixed decor that can’t be changed. If you want to have much more freedom when it comes to decorating the space, consider hiring blank canvas venues.
The earlier, the better! You should secure your dream space at least 8 weeks in advance. That way, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from and have all the time you need to compare their offers.
