Party Tents
I saw cars parked at the neighbors’ across the road and there were men buys putting up these two party tents Friday morning. There’s a party coming up, I thought. Sure enough, there was a wedding reception party last night.
What a neat idea to have these party tents set up for a special occasion. I haven’t seen something like this before. This would be nice if you a planning to have a big crowd to your parties in the future. Check out party tent rentals now.

It was a very fun evening I had few weeks ago. My best friend NJ and I had a double birthday celebration at her house in Forth Worth. I am still cannot find the words how enchanted I was of how beautifully the party was planned and put together very successfully. We both had not idea how the party would be like because there was no tiny hint. Not one little bit. Our dear friends were very good in hiding clues. Would you believe that they did a Casino Themed Birthday Party? NJ and I like going to the casinos. 😀 We don’t do it very often but we enjoy going.
NJ and me. Birthday banner.
Anyway, it’s my 40th birthday and I can say that this was it was a big celebration to date. NJ is in her late 20s already. The last time we celebrated our birthday together was in 2009 when we were neighbors in Fort Worth. We went Downtown and had fun at the disco and karaoke at City Streets (now closed). Those were good times, I tell ya.
Lots of food. Yum.
The party that night was a blast. The decorations were amazing and the food was abundant. Thanks to the guests who brought delicious American and Filipino foods. In addition, NJ’s hubby and friends had set up a red carpet and casino. NJ and I had a wonderful night on our birthday party. They were very thoughtful with donating to my feeding program next month. NJ, her sister, my daughter, and I are flying together to the Philippines for a vacation this month. And one of the things in my agenda was having a small Thanksgiving feast for the children in my neighborhood. I am excited about it. It won’t be long and we will be in the Philippines.
Our birthday cake.
My best friend NJ and me. I love you dear.
There’s a lot of stuff went on at the party that evening – karaoke, disco, and games. Oh how fun. Thanks to our wonderful friends who made our birthday party celebration very successful and amazing.

Birthday Theme
It is very important to set and decide for a theme ahead of time. This is because some of the resources can be difficult to obtain or it takes a while to gather. For example, if your loved one or a dear friend is going to celebrate her 50th birthday, it’s obvious that it’s a golden theme. So birthday party decor should be coordinating with gold color. Centerpieces should have gold beads in bowls or gold banners on the wall. This huge milestone is also associated with black color because of what they say “over the hill”. That is why my friend’s party had a few black-colored decorations, too.
Venue and Set-up
Surely an event like this is big and there will be many guests. If you are planning to invite 30 guests, chances are you will be accommodating perhaps more or less 50 people. So you will be needing a big space to hold the party. Community centers are available for rent in your town. Tables, chairs, and even kitchen area are available to use. If you are a resident, the charge is lesser that to those who are not. But be aware of how long you are holding the party. Allow an extra hour before and after for cleaning and setting up.
Food
The food to serve depends on what time of the day the party would be. If your party is at 3:00 P.M. until 8:00 P.M., make sure that you serve food for dinner. Familiarize yourself on your guests’ meal preferences. Drinks should be accessible as well. Bottled water and canned drinks are convenient. Be sure to have trash bags available for grabs for those recyclable stuff. If you plan to have alcoholic drinks served after 5:00 P.M., have someone in-charge.
Cake
Of course, a birthday party is not complete without a specially made cake. It doesn’t have to be big and expensive. Designed accordingly to the theme and a little personalized will do.
Entertainment
If you plan to have:
Karaoke – You can ask your friends if they have a karaoke machine or equipment or sound system that they can let you borrow. But of course, they are the ones to operate since it’s their property.
Disco – You can also do indoor disco. With the technology nowadays, you can hook a music app from your phone to a sound system for a disco at parties. And to make the disco more appealing, you can add a rotating disco light. You can buy this item for cheap.
