Big Party? Here’s How to Budget
For those that have it, they have it. Some people are born to be natural entertainers. From having the best playlist to the best food to amazing decorations that match the party perfectly. However, this isn’t the case for most people and if you have a big party coming up, you’ll need help on how to budget.
A millionaire might be able to throw together a lavish, impressive event, but what if you have a budget that’s of less epic proportions? From a small gathering, such as an office event, to a bigger affair like a 500-guest wedding, you don’t need to have millions stashed away to throw a party that will have everyone talking about it. Here’s how to throw an amazing party on a budget!
Simple Invitations
Unless the event you’re planning is a wedding or formal event, you don’t need anything super fancy. Instead, go for email invites or invites through social media. These are free to sned and allow guests to RSVP in an instant rather than calling or texting to do so.
You can create an invite through Facebook which will then create an entire event page for your upcoming party! This allows people to see who else is coming and a ton of other details about the party.
Budget Decor
You don’t have to spend a ton in order to have amazing party decor. Even some of the items sitting around your house can be used as decorations. Try mixing and matching three or four different designs of bowls and plates to acquire vintage and quirky look that you get for no cost. Create the perfect place cards with various items around your house and a sharpie.
Cheap Eats
You don’t need to serve the finest steak in order to please your guests. Rather than creating a full menu of different items, try offering different appetizer-sized snacks that will save you lots of money. Soup, meat skewers, and dips are great, cheap options that will keep everyone happy.
Time For Drinks
Alcohol is one of the worst ways to keep a steady budget for a party. People will usually want different types of drinks which require multiple different purchases. Rather than buying out the liquor store, decide on one or two types of alcohol for the night. This way you only need to purchase a smaller amount of drinks. Make sure to also include non-alcoholic drinks for any kids or designated drivers.
