OMG! 5 months to go and Dirk will turn
3! Last year, I also started to plan as early as possible. Planning is really important especially if it involves
COST (learned this term in an accounting perspective hihihi), we make sure that
the money we a lot for this will really be SULIT. Here is the link of my blog
when we had Dirk’s 2nd birthday celebration last March: http://diosyl.blogspot.com/2014/02/getting-ready-dirk-ludwig-2.html
So here are some of my TIPID tips for
planning a birthday party:
FREE VENUE
There are some restaurants that offers FREE venue for your celebration, examples of which are Shakey’s, Jollibee, McDonalds, Pizza Hut, Max’s Restaurant & Sunburst. I guess many of you were able to try these venues BUT if you really want a TIPID one, your HOME will be the best venue especially if you have an area that will your visitors and your host, magician or puppeteer.
KEEP IT SIMPLE AND DO IT YOURSELF
I was
hands-on the decorations for Dirk’s 2nd party, thank you PINTEREST
for lots of ideas and very easy-to-do cut-outs. Always remember that your decorations
must match on the theme you are planning for your birthday to prevent over
buying of stuffs.

INVEST ON GOOD ENTERTAINMENT
What’s the use of e very nice decoration
and good venue IF your visitors are not entertained? Most of you will probably
agree with me that the success of the party depends on the party host. If your
party host is too boring or too loud, it could make or break your event.
We must consider the entertainment we want to have in our party, if you want a, puppet show, magician or a Ventriloquist. Here in the Philippines, I highly recommend KUYA MAU. I was able to write about him on my previous blog and I am very much thankful because some mommies were able to witness his performance. Those smiles on our kids face are priceless.

ReplyDeleteThank you mommy michelle :) glad you appreciate it :)
DeleteHe's only a month or two older than my Yuri so I understand the excitement! I've never given him big parties because too much noise scares him.
ReplyDeleteHi Mommy Marie, same with Dirk before also afraid with too much noise but gladly he tends not to fear anymore when he also see kids around playing with him :)
DeleteGood tips! I can imagine how busy you are. Good luck in the preps! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you mommy :) I'm really trying to work out in a very tight budget so good luck to me :)
DeleteGood luck with the party preparations! Those are great tips by the way! If I may add one more thing, photos during the birthday party are very important as well so that pwedeng balikan ng kids natin at matuwa sila and tayo sa mga reactions nila in the long run :D
ReplyDeleteThank you mommy nicole! :) thank you for the additional tip :) to make it more TIPID, we can invite photography newbie that are willing to take events for FREE :)
DeleteLove the kids' happy faces, super entertained!
ReplyDeleteSame here mommy Que :)
DeleteGood luck with the party planning! I love planning parties. They're so fun. For the past several years we've been having small parties in our house. But we just transferred to a smaller apartment a couple months ago. So, we'll have to host our future parties somewhere else.
ReplyDeleteThank you mommy janice :) Same here, that is why we had Dirk's 2nd birthday held in venue just near our apartment that we are staying kasi maliit yung space sa tinittirhan namin :)
DeleteI love planning parties tulad ni mommy janice and this post really help me a lot lalo na inaayos ko na yung 1st birthday ni Rhian. :) I agree with you, invest on good entertainment, kasi sila yung magdadala ng whole program eh.. :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck also for your planning mommy Rackell :) and thank you for reading my post :)
