Rate this post

Whether you are planning your own milestone birthday party or engagement celebration, or else you are organizing a surprise (or otherwise) fabulous celebration for a close friend of a family member, thriving in the modern world means little time to spend on such ’extracurricular’ activities. 

There is, however, some good news.

There is a wide plethora of ways in which to plan a hugely successful and memorable celebration of the year with as little effort from yourself and your party planning helpers as possible.

Outsource The Food & Drink

The time, energy, stress and not to mention the money you will spend on preparing and arranging your own food and drink for the celebration day will guarantee to affect your overall enjoyment of the planning of the party and even the day itself. 

Hiring professional and reputable private bartenders will be one of the best decisions you could possibly make for the party. You can contact them to discuss exactly what you would like from them and they will be more than happy to offer any additional tips, advice, and services that they may feel you will benefit from. 

Choose Fireworks!

Regardless of the type of celebration you are planning, there is no more spectacular and inspiring sight than some beautiful fireworks in a display to impress every single one of your guests (and, in fairness anyone completely unconnected from the event that simply happens to be walking past the vicinity at the time). 

Always arrange your firework display with a reputable, professional, and high-end company that will ensure they stick strictly and completely to all health and safety guidelines. It would be polite to warn people in the area as well so that they can make any precautions for the pets that might be necessary. 

Live Music

Most people would agree that live music played by a talented band far outweighs the impact of even the most energetic and competent D.J. and that is why sourcing a skilled and entertaining live band for your event or celebration is an absolute must.

The advantages of live music are numerous and include the ability to personalize the performance to the types of guests at your event, the creation of an energetic and electric atmosphere, interaction with the audience, and personalized shoutouts and audience communication. 

Ask Your Guests For Ideas

One of the most effective and relatively simple ways of ensuring no valuable time and money is wasted on ideas and actions that fail to come into fruition is to ask your guests what they think constitutes a memorable and iconic celebration. 

Organizing a games tournament is a fabulous way of involving all the guests, be that an adult-themed one (if that suits the guest demographic) or else a more general dance-off that guests of all ages will enjoy. 

Other entertainment ideas include circus performers, dancing waiters, board games tables in the corner of the room, and marshmallows, chocolate and smores for singing around the firepit. Additionally, encourage guests to their guitars and harmonicas for an improvised singalong at the end of the night.
