Venue Ideas When Planning a Surprise Birthday Party
Although some may disagree, husbands are not exactly good party planners. It's women who we usually see organizing a bash. But that of course is the stereotype. There are also those from the male species that can be good when it comes to putting together a party.
If your wife's birthday is coming up real soon and you want to give her a surprise birthday party but you're not sure which venue would be ideal for the events, here are a few suggestions:
Home sweet home - Having your own home as the venue for the bash is your most practical option. Aside from the savings you get from not having to pay for rent a place, it's easier to put everything together if the event will be held right in your own abode. The only big challenge you may encounter is timing; that is, making sure your wife's not home during the time you're getting the house all prepped for the party.
Outdoors - If you know that your wife's schedule does not see her leaving the house on her birthday (especially if it falls on a weekend), then you can plan an outdoor get-together with your friends and family. Of course, since you're going to hold it an open area, you have to make sure the weather forecast for that day does not bode rain or snow. Also, have a plan B in case Mr. Weatherman's forecast of nice, sunny weather does not come to pass.
Her favorite restaurant - Or her favorite bar or hotel, for that matter. You may have heard her muttering as you pass by an Italian restaurant about dining there someday. That should give you more than a hint on where to hold that surprise bash you're planning. Be sure to have the place reserved on her special day.
At work - If your wife is so busy you can not even drag her to a certain location for her own birthday celebration, why do not have it right at her workplace? You've got to enlist the help of her co-workers (and, of course, her boss) to pull this off.
Continuing surprise - Why have it in just one place if you can hold the party in multiple places? If you have the time and energy (and the budget) for it, you can make it extra special by having short celebrations at various locations with only you and her in attendance. You can cap the day by taking a quiet stroll home and just enjoying the evening breeze.
Pulling off a surprise party for your wife does not have to be such a fussy affair. As long as you prep early and organize things properly, you can accomplish this task without having to lose sleep over it.
