Tips for planning a party
Here you will find some tips to get your party started! Keep in mind that a party is given to show someone love or spend time with those we care for as you plan. The focus is not to impress but express to others we care about them and give them a time of enjoyment.
Tips for making the day less stressful
- Get started early planning your party.

- Organize your time by using the count down a to-do list in the printable party planner
- Break down tasks such as decorations and entertainment using the pages from the party planner
- Ask for help, get friends, and family involved in preparations. Hire out what you don't want to do.
- Decide ahead of time if something goes not as planned, it's ok!

How do you organize a party?
First off, decide from the beginning this is going to be fun and agree with yourself not to get stressed over things, not in your control.

Do you need a party planner?
A good party planner has a detailed checklist for you to follow. It should start a month before your party and then keep you organized all the way through to when the party starts. This will help you stay relaxed, ensuring you have taken care of the details, so your guest will have a great time.
