How to Throw a Party on a Budget

venue rental Westchester

There are many reasons to throw a party, such as a corporate meeting in Westchester, a Westchester birthday package, an anniversary, or a holiday.  If you want to throw a party for you and your friends, you´re probably excited, yet a little stressed to plan out all the details.  One reason that people often get stressed about planning a party is because of their budget.  The good thing, though, is that throwing a party doesn´t mean that you need to break the bank.  At Life the Place to Be, we want you to have a great party, while keeping your budget in mind.  For this reason, we have provided suggestions on how to throw an inexpensive party at our venue rental Westchester.

 

Invitations

It´s cost-effective, as well as environmentally friendly, to ditch the fancy paper invitations.  Instead, you can choose to email your guests an invitation, or even create an event page on Facebook.  When you send out electronic invites, you can give your guests the option to RSVP online, which will result in a faster response time.

 

Decorations

It´s true, our special events venue in Westchester isn´t complete without decorations.  That being said, you don´t have to splurge on expensive decorations when you can make your own!  If you want a centerpiece, you can buy flowers at your local convenience store, along with whatever you want to put with it, such as pinecones, sparkles, or cheap candles!  There are many ¨How-To¨ videos you can watch online that will show you how to make your own decorations.

 

Food

The best way to save money on your menu is to make your party a potluck.  By doing so, everyone can bring their favorite finger food such as meat skewers and dips.  Your guests will enjoy being able to try a variety of foods, and you will save a lot of money.

 

Alcohol

Alcohol can get expensive, especially when you are providing it for a big group of people.  Instead of buying a big variety of liquor which may leave you with many unfinished bottles, you should narrow your options.  You can choose to do one or two signature drinks so that you will only have to buy 2 different types of alcohol.  If you want to serve wine instead of liquor, you can choose to supply one type of red wine and one type of white wine.

Make sure to use these suggestions to save money while planning your party.  Once you have everything planned, you and your friends can relax and enjoy the party at our special events venue in Westchester.
