How to throw the best party ever continued.
Its time to start planning your perfect event. You want to show all of your family and friends a good time but money and time is tight. Here are some guidelines to stick to when planning an event within budget.
Set the Date!
Once you’ve decided on where you want to have your party set the date and time! Once this is done now you get to start having fun planning the party!
Make Invitations
You’ve decided on the guest list, picked a venue, and set the date and time. Now its time to let them know you are throwing a fabulous party. Guest’s love getting special invites. If you take the time to let someone know that you specifically want them at your party, it is both polite, and extremely flattering.
Sending Out Invitations to your Party!
But get creative! You don’t have to send out invitations through the mail. All though it is a classic way of inviting your friends it also takes up a lot of time and money… And if you have the budget, then it may be worth considering doing custom invitations. Custom invitations can cost quite a lot of money as well. Even if you were to create the invitations yourself on your computer or by hand, it takes a massive amount of time not only finding addresses, but addressing the invitations…
Party Invitations Via Facebook- Save you money!
Send out an event invitation through Facebook. You can make the event private or public and invite as many guests as you like for free. Its simple and time saving. If you want to make it more personal to you then add or create a custom image at the top of your Facebook party page.
If you are one of the few who don’t have a Facebook account- you can still send out texts to everyone that you want to invite. Tell them the date, time, location, and what the event is. If you go this route you will most likely have to confirm with your guests later that they are in fact coming. Sending out another text message a few days before reminding them that your party is just around the corner.
Not text savy? Just give your guests a phone call. Its more personal and inviting then an text anyways.
