1. Start with Your Invitations

Always start with your invitations before you begin anything else. Why? Knowing how many people you’re inviting or how many invitations your sending out is a good way to determine how to plan out the rest of the party. 

You’ll need to know how many people are coming to know how much cake you’ll need, how many parties favor making, how big of a location you’ll need, and much more. And a great way to save money is to create your own invitations using invitations templates from Adobe Spark. They’re super customizable and free!

2. Choose a Stress-Free Location

What better way to reduce the stress from planning a birthday party than choosing a stress-free location. Although having the party at your house might save you money, ask yourself if it’s worth it. When the party is over, you’ll have much cleaning to do and had several little ones running around your living room that might send your stress levels skyrocketing. 

Choose a location where you won’t have to worry about dirty feet ruining your brand new carpets. Pick somewhere where the birthday boy or girl will have fun and so will you. The less hassle during and after the party, the less stress. 

3. Schedule Events with Wiggle Room

When planning out the events for the party, be sure to schedule them with some wiggle room. One of the best ways to reduce your stress levels is to accept the fact that not everything will go exactly how you planned it to. Accept this and be ready to just roll with it to save yourself some grey hairs. 

Some activities might take longer than expected because the children might enjoy it more, while other activities might not take up as much time as you thought they would. With this being said, plan with wiggle room, but always have a schedule to generally stick by.

4. Save the Cake for Last

The last tip on our list is to save the cake for last or close to it. The singing and the cutting of the cake is what lets everyone know that the party is soon winding down. It’s also a good idea to feed your little one’s friends with cake right before sending them back home. 

This saves you from having jumping kids who ate a bunch of sugar bouncing off the walls.
