| How to Choose a Party Venue for Your Child’s Birthday Party |
Choosing the right venue for the party can make or break a party. The choice of your venue can affect the number of guests you can comfortably hold, the party activities you want to have or whether you have to deal with the weather (for outdoor venues).
You also have to consider if the venue is easily accessible to most of your invited guests. While your child may enjoy having the party at the zoo for example, it might not necessarily be the most convenient location for some of his friends to get to.
From our experience, we have found indoor venues to be better suited for party activities or venues with both indoor and outdoor facilities. Naturally, if you are looking for a specific venue like the Zoo, Birdpark or amusement attractions, a large portion of the party will be outdoors. However, many of these venues also have indoor function rooms or restaurants that can cater for an indoor program.
If you choose to have an outdoor venue, try to secure the use of a sheltered pavilion or tentage for food and various party activities. This will also be shelter should the weather turn wet.
Here are some common and recommended party venues:
Multi-Purpose/ Function Rooms
If you are able to book your condominium's function room or hall, it would be a perfect party venue. If you do not live in a condominium, you can try asking relatives who do to help assist you with the bookings accordingly.
You can also consider function rooms available for rent at affordable prices at your nearby community club. A typical function room has enough space, tables and chairs prepared for guests to enjoy the food and any entertainment you have planned.
Restaurants
Many restaurants have private rooms which you can use. Similar to a function room, it meets all the requirements needed in throwing a great party. In such cases, you get a 2-in-1 as you don't have to worry about catering separately, since food would be provided by the restaurant.
A popular restaurant venue for a party in Singapore is the Lion's Den at The Hard Rock Café. Not only is it easily accessible, this private room is big enough to comfortably hold about 80-100 kids and adults.
At Home
Why go out when you can stay in? If you've got the space to throw a party then having the party at home has many advantages. You won't have to source for a venue. You can comfortably prepare the food for the party if you want. Plus, when it's party time, there's no chance that you will forget or leave anything behind. Doesn't that sound sweet?
The only disadvantage to having a party at home is that you have to personally clean up after everyone has left. It's a small bummer but at least you'll have all the convenience of home!
