birthday party tips

 

Our houses come with lots of amenities that will keep you comfortable and entertained all throughout. Hot tubs, pools, tennis courts, games rooms are just to name a few. Some houses also come with disco rooms, karaoke rooms and private bars. This way you could create the perfect setting for your birthday party. You can also hire a DJ, or bring your own music devices to play your favourite tunes on the speakers that most houses offer.

If you choose to take matters into your own hands and opt for a self-catered stay, you will also be able to save up on food and drinks. You will enjoy the benefit of no corkage fees and everyone can just bring their favourite drinks. If you choose to have a catered stay, we can recommend some fantastic catering partners who will take care of everything.

 

Add a theme for your 30th birthday party

 

One of the best 30th birthday ideas is having a themed party. Here are some fun themes that you could choose from:

  • 80s/90s Flashback Party – Play your favourite tunes from the 80s or 90s that will take you back in time and enable you to reminisce with your best friends. Go all out with the attire and decorations!
  • All White Party – There is nothing more elegant than a white party where you can urge all your guests to dress up in their favourite white outfits. Pair this up with your favourite matching cocktails, bottles of bubble or prosecco, and elegant canapes. You can also decorate your Party House just the way you like with your favourite decorations.
  • Couture 30th – If you’re a fashion diva, you can take this chance to dress up runway style and urge your friends to push their style limits. Complement this with disco lights, some funky music and splendid decorations to set the mood!
  • Pretty in Pink Party – Go all out decorating your Party House all in pink for a pretty in pink themed party. Add a sweet cart with pink sweets, serve pink cocktails and add pink foods! Get the boys to also wear pink!
  • Wine Tasting Birthday Party – A wine tasting 30th birthday party might just be the perfect way to bring your big day. We have numerous wine tasting providers who would be than happy to give you a great experience! Pair this up with creative hors d’oeuvres!
  • Great Gatsby Themed Party – Bring out the pearls, hats, flapper dresses and host a memorable 1920s inspired soiree. The decorations can be gold and glitzy with balloons and confetti everywhere. You could have burlesque-inspired centrepieces and also set up a photo booth filled with props inspired from the 1920s. 
  • Pyjama Party – If you’re not that much into dressing up, you could also host a fun pyjama party. Decorate your venue with colourful shot glasses, set up a quirky snack bar and add colourful balloons and confetti everywhere.
  • Bollywood Themed Birthday Party – Light up incense sticks, get some candles, and bring in some colourful drapes. You can also create your own centrepiece by filling water in a transparent container and adding floating flowers. Go to the nearest Indian store to pick up some Bollywood music and go all out dressing up in sarees with bindis. Pair this up with your favourite Indian dishes!

Go all out with decorations

 

The best part about having a Party House to yourself is being able to decorate it just the way you like. You can create your bespoke space and setting up together with your best friends has a charm of its own. If you choose to do so yourself, you will be saving up a lot and could choose your favourite colour combinations and decorations.

 

Guestlist

 

You are free to choose a venue depending on the number of guests you’re inviting. Make the task of inviting people much easier by preparing two lists. The first one can include the people you will surely invite. The second can be a list of those you’re unsure of. This way you can choose your favourite venue, see how many people it can accommodate and then make a final decision on the guest list.

 

Summer garden or pool party

 

Another one of our favourite 30th birthday ideas is a garden or pool party. Many of our venues come with pools and most come with lots of surrounding private gardens. During the warmer summer months, you can also host an alfresco party. Make use of the BBQ areas that many houses come with. You will also find outdoor seating and extraordinary views. Again, you can decorate the gardens with fairy lights and other decorations to create your desired environment. Similarly, if you choose a venue with a pool, you can also host a pool party!

You will be able to spend quality time with your loved ones for a longer period of time. You can also make your chosen venue a paradise! Create your own bespoke party and it will also bring out your personality.
