Guide to Throwing a Fabulous B-Day Party
No more B-day party on yachts, in KTV, or nightclubs! Let’s bring it home! With Cocktails, desserts, and even bartenders & chefs! It will definitely be an unforgettable one. This is your guide to throwing a kick-ass house party.
Where to have the party?
Airbnb
Cleaning up the living room after a wild party is always a pain, not to mention your own place might not have quite enough space for your guests. So rent an Airbnb house for your party, you'd be surprised how inexpensive it is for a night and how many great spots are available. Of course we're not saying you should just book whatever you want and then trash it, some of the apartments on the site allow parties, so look for those. All you have to do is to confirm with the owner and hire an Ayi to clean it before you check out.
Booking a room about 2 weeks in advance should be enough time to find a gorgeous flat with a huge living room, an opening kitchen and even a 100-inch projection screen to watch movies. Easily to host 20-30 people together at the same time!
Where to get the food & drinks?
Dessert @ Blue Feaster
3 of the founders of Blue Feaster graduated from Le Cordon Bleu, they make both ordinary desserts and finger foods. The chefs will bring and prepare all the food for you 2 hours before the party. There are even 3 different food themes to choose from, all up to you!
