Who doesn’t love partying? Whether
it’s your kid’s birthday or your anniversary, a party is a great
way to socialize. However, hosting a party within a fixed budget
often remains a challenge for most people. While everyone wants to
throw the most outrageous celebration of the town, meeting up your
guests’ expectations along with minimizing your expenses is tough.
One of the areas where you can cut down the expenses without
affecting the excitement is your venue decoration. Here are some
smart ways to decorate your party venue without spending a lot.
Use food for decoration
Your delicious food can also double up
as a party decoration. Show off your cupcakes, pretzel sticks, jar
filled with M & Ms, cookies, etc. to your guests. Set the party
table just before your guests arrive. Only use food that doesn’t
need continuous refrigeration or needs to be served chilled. Your
decorative buffet will certainly attract everyone and give a
voluminous look to your party. Take out the pedestal bowls and
stylish serving trays, use a cupcake stand as a centerpiece, and
serve your guests using themed tableware.
Host the party outdoors
This is a great way to minimize your
hassles and efforts. Let nature become a perfect backdrop as well as
prop for your party. Clean your backyard and use balloons and crepe
papers to jazz up the trees and bushes. Inexpensive crafts such as
tissue paper pompoms, a handmade banner, etc. will further minimize
your budget. You won’t have to do extensive decoration for hosting
the party outdoors but make sure you always have a backup plan in
case the weather turns unfavorable at the last moment.
Use lots of balloons
Your party decoration will not be
complete without lots of bright and colorful balloons. If you are on
a tight-budget, they are the best alternative to expensive
centerpieces and other decoration supplies. Simply make a balloon
bunch and anchor them on a balloon weight to create a fabulous
centerpiece. Blow up lots of colorful balloons and let them float in
the air, hang them from the ceiling using curling ribbons, or simply
use them to cover the wall behind the party table or ceiling. These
inexpensive supplies will help you breathe festivity to your party
atmosphere.
Use things that are handy
There are endless supplies available in
all price range for your celebrations but instead of buying them, you
can use things that you already have. If you are on a tight budget,
use your child’s stuff toy to anchor the balloons instead of buying
a balloon weight. Hang the piñata at the entrance and when all your
guests have arrived, hang it inside or wherever you plan to play the
game. Let the kids decorate their own tiaras and cookies and take
them home as favors.
Do some DIYing
Mommies are the busiest people on the
earth; however, if you can take out some time, you must involve
yourself in DIYing. This way, you will be able to use your creative
side to cut down some of your expenses. Moreover, DIYing will make
your child feel special.
A bright and colorful party atmosphere
is sure to impress your guests and get them into the party mood.
