After (or sometimes even before) choosing the theme for the party you’re hosting, the next thing you’ll want to do is decide whether to host the party at your home or a local venue. Hosting at your home is often the first thought, especially with young kids, but there are real reasons to consider both. Let’s break them down now!!

Pros of Home Parties:

  • Personal Space + Comfort
  • No Travel Involved
  • Flexible Timing + No Time Limits
  • Custom Decorations + Unlimited Prep/Cleanup Time
  • No Limits on Food + Beverages

Cons of Home Parties:

  • You’re Responsible for Cleaning
  • Decorating from Scratch
  • Risks of Damage to Personal Items
  • Accumulating Costs

Factors to Consider when Choosing a Venue:

  • Venue Size
  • Vibe Matches the Theme
  • Cost of Party Package
  • Food Options
  • Staff Assistance
  • Privacy

Ultimately you’ll want to choose the option that best suits your child’s desires and your comfort level. Remember, the most important thing is to create memorable moments for your child’s special day!
