7 tips on how to organize a birthday party on a budget in Boston

There's no need to spend a fortune to throw an epic birthday fête! Trust us, with a little planning and creativity, you can pull off an exciting birthday bash that's both fun and budget-friendly. You don’t believe us?! Well, check out our guide with 7 expert tips you should know before you kick off your party planning! You’ll quickly change your mind and see that the whole process can be enjoyable, no matter how much money you have to spare!

  1. Set your budget

This may seem obvious, but setting a budget should be the first step you take to kick off your planning. Once you know how much money you can spend, it'll be easier for you to determine which options match your price range.

  1. Make a guest list

How many people are you planning to invite? Keep in mind that the more you ask to come, the higher costs you will incur. So maybe it’d be better to limit your guest list to only close relatives and friends? Take some time to decide who simply has to show up at your birthday bash. Then, when you have the list ready, don’t toss it aside! Because it will help you during your venue search, and you will quickly decide if your potential options will accommodate everyone and aren’t, for example, too big or small.

  1. Find the venue

Boston is packed with great and cheap birthday party venues — you only need to know where to find them! To give you a hint, in this superb city, you can find anything from historic mansions, hip restaurants, and vibrant bars to cozy cafes and outdoor spaces that can bring your celebrations to a new level. And what’s the best part? Many of these venues offer packages that allow you to customize your space and food options for a super reasonable price. Don’t be afraid to ask the venue managers for an individual offer and ask for some discounts when you book well in advance. It doesn’t cost you a thing and can only bring you some great options you can choose based on your budget!

Also, try to search for venues with some unique decor and ambiance that will match your party vision. That way, you can save on decorations as the venue itself will amp up the atmosphere and set the mood for your event!

  1. Consider a joint party 

Perhaps you’ve got a friend or a relative who has their birthday around the same time as you? If so, you could throw a joint party! It’s a great way to reduce costs and throw a bigger and more exciting event while the costs will be split evenly between you and another celebrant.

  1. Be your own DJ 

Although hiring a DJ may be tempting, it can take a large part of your budget. So why not use old good Spotify or the Apple Music app to create a legendary playlist that includes everyone’s favorite bops? In addition, many venues offer AV equipment you can connect via Bluetooth to your device and play music on your own. Just remember to ask whether using the equipment comes with additional fees, and you’ll be ready to transform into David Guetta or Martin Garrix at your own bash!

  1. Serve finger foods and signature drinks 

How about supplying your fantastic party with different types of finger foods? Apart from being less expensive, this option allows you to go crazy and serve less-obvious treats that will only add an exciting kick to your event. Surprise your guests with, for example, Nacho Fries with Chipotle Queso, Caprese Pesto Tarts, or Fruit and Cheese Crostini, and see how quickly they vanish from the table! When it comes to beverages, you can ask your guests to BYOB or serve signature cocktails which is a more affordable option than having an open bar. 

  1. Send e-invites 

Ditch traditional invitations and send e-invites instead! It won’t cost you a penny and you can actually have a lot of fun designing your own custom digital cards that match your party theme. Also, you will contribute to helping out the environment, so it will feel like killing two birds with one stone!

FAQs about Birthday Party Venues in Boston, MA

How much does it cost to rent a birthday party venue in Boston?

The final cost will vary depending on the venue type, popularity and location. Generally, you should expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $250+ per hour. Many venues, such as bars and restaurants, offer great per person packages, which include catering options, tableware, waitstaff, etc. in the rental price. The prices for per-person packages start from as low as $48.

How far in advance should I book a birthday party venue in Boston?

If you want the best options available, you should book your dream birthday venue between 12 and 8 weeks in advance. This will allow you to secure a date that's perfect for you, and give you enough time to plan the details of your celebration. However, if you wait too long, you may risk having your ideal location booked on the date of your event—and if the only available venue is a terrible match for your taste or needs, it can be difficult to find a new location on such short notice.

Where in Boston can I find great birthday party venues?

The North End is full of great Italian restaurants, so you'll have no problems finding one that fits your tastes regardless of what cuisine you prefer. There are also plenty of shops nearby, if you’d like to spice up the party with a gift or two for your guests. And if a sit-down dinner isn't quite your thing, you should swing by South End instead. It offers both casual spots as well as tons of fancy bars and restaurants. Planning to hit the clubs after your birthday gathering? Then consider the Theatre District! It’s known for the best clubhouses in town that are near each other.

What essentials should I have at my birthday party?

The answer is different for everyone, but some things are definitely must-haves. First, make sure you have prepared a music playlist that suits everyone –  and try to keep it varied with some upbeat dance music when people are mingling, and some mellow tracks for the moments when everyone sits around and eats or chats. Also, make sure to plan some activities and games! They are fantastic ice breakers that help people interact with each other. And of course, you shouldn’t forget some decorations, such as candles, or balloons. They bring a nice ambiance to any space and make a party feel more special.
