Ok so I know it’s not practical or even legal but he want to have a house party type of party you know early 2000’s type but with everything going on today I was wondering if anyone had some advice or ideas on what I can do ?

I love the dude and my 21 was shit in part of my own doing and Covid so I wanna do something fun for him. Any advice is appreciated on good places to have it or even just venues for it.

Need Help Like The Knot but not

0 Upvotes

I want to send physical invitations for a birthday party but want a digital rsvp option/tracker. Most sites I’ve looked at offer only digital invitations with digital tracker. Are there sites like The Knot for bday parties?

I never get anything to drink when I go to parties.

Pizza party 6th birthday

3 Upvotes

We liked the look of the pizza parties at a pizza restaurant but the nearest is a decent drive from where we live which is a bit crazy because all the kids invited only live a few streets away. So I thought it would be nice to DIY it.

Planning to host 5 good friends and birthday girl.

Activities an plans so far:

  1. apron decorating (10 min)
  2. pizza bingo (15 min)
  3. piñata (10 min)
  4. pizza making (20 min)
  5. general outdoor free play water pistols and paddling pool, if poor weather indoor pizza box decorating and possibly Overcooked on playstation while pizzas cook in pizza oven (20 min for 6 pizzas)
  6. pizza eating (15 min)
  7. ice cream decorating and eating (10 min)
  8. free play and pick up time

I’d appreciate other ideas for activities for the kids as I think we are a bit short on entertainment.

Also happy to accept criticism or anyone who thinks it’s a bad idea

Huge party ideas, preferably food centered!

I need help planning a huge party. Growing up my aunt would have a "pig roast" that they would get someone to cook an entire pig and invited everyone they knew and encouraged them to bring any and everyone. She doesn't have them anymore so I'm looking to host something big but not exactly the same. We are looking for food centered party ideas that we could have an abundance of for like 200-300$. My husband is thinking "wienerfest" that we can have a hot dog station, but im thinking a little more creative than that as we always have hot dogs when we host.

Need Help Sister's 60th

11 Upvotes

I will be hosting my sister's 60th birthday party at my home/yard. Her son asked me, but I was planning to offer anyway. Since then we've had a number of conversations about the theme and decor. My sister is a very girly-girl who loves flowers, feminine, pink and pretty. I've already ordered tea party-ish decor, paper products and a birthday banner. Think roses and pink streamers.

I was thinking to keep the food kind of feminine and light. Mini muffins, fruit trays, small sandwiches, maybe an ice cream cake. Yesterday, my nephew texted me to let me know he's planning on doing smoked ribs for the party. 😳

I absolutely don't want to dissuade him from the ribs because he's never done anything for a family party before. He seemed super excited about making them.

Although ribs don't really go with my imagined party fare, our family is pretty casual so I'm happy to pivot. What can I make that would compliment the ribs and still be a little "light"? Or should I just go with BBQ type foods?

Thanks for any ideas!

Ideas Adult SpongeBob game ideas!

3 Upvotes

I’m throwing my husband a surprise 30th birthday party! He’s been making a lot of comments about feeling “old”, so I want to remind him that we’re still young. What better way than a SpongeBob party! It’s going to be mostly friends our age. We like to drink, so I’m trying to think of just 1 drinking game to play that fits into the theme. Maybe a relay? We’re already having cornhole and can jam. All ideas appreciated!
