Guide to renting a birthday party venue

• Start with a party planning checklist – We’re well aware that organizing a birthday party can get a little overwhelming, but don’t stress! We’re here to help you with at least one step in the whole process - renting the ideal venue. But before you get to booking the place, there are a few things you should keep in mind. We’ve prepared a checklist to make sure that your  birthday party organization stays hassle-free, and you’re less likely to forget about something really important!

• Which catering option to choose? – Are you planning a huge private feast or just a selection of nibbles to snack on? The type of catering you’ll end up going for will either be determined by your vision for the party or the kind of venue you end up renting. It is quite normal that you’ll choose a sit-down dinner in a restaurant or a buffet style event in a blank canvas space. Whichever option you end up going for, don’t forget to check if any of your guests have special dietary requirements.

• Pick the right decorations – As long as the venue manager gives their permission, you can decorate your rented venue any way you like. But keep in mind that the type of venue you select will have a significant impact on the way a space is decorated. If it is an outdoor space, string lights, torches, candles (even flameless), and lanterns hanging in trees, will do the job. If you are throwing a birthday party indoors, whether it’s a blank canvas space or a hall, you can let your imagination run free and decorate the room any way you wish.

• Select the date and time –  First things first, choose the most memorable place possible for your event. Don’t pay attention to just the decor - remember to check if the venue’s offer and policy will work for you. Once you’ve chosen the place, make sure it is available on the date you’d like to throw your party on. We recommend you start searching for venues about a month before the event. This should give you just enough time to make sure the place you like the most is free, and in case it is not, to choose a different one.

• Create a guest list – It wouldn’t be a birthday party without the guests! That’s why it’s so important to invite your close friends and family. Obviously, the number of people attending your event will depend on its scale. If you’re throwing a lavish celebration, invite as many of your friends and family members as possible! But in case you’re planning an intimate budget-friendly event, we suggest you only invite those with whom you talk on a regular basis. 

• Send out the invites – Once the date, hour, and location of the birthday party are set, you should let the guests know it is happening. Send out invitations (preferably matching the theme of your party if there is one) and ask those who are invited to let you know whether they will be able to attend it as soon as possible.

• Choose a theme –  It doesn’t matter if you’re throwing a birthday party for a kid or an adult, we highly recommend you set a theme for the event! It will not only make the party more personal (as we assume you’ll choose a theme that somehow fits the birthday person) but also fun! You can either go for a favorite movie, TV series, era, or browse the internet to find more inspiration.
