Birthday is the only holiday that both children and adults are happy with. Many people prefer to arrange holidays on this occasion at home, which means that all responsibility for the mood of the holiday falls on the birthday person.
Instructions
Step 1
Holiday parties are not new to us for a long time. Every year we attend dozens of holidays, and most of them leave no special mark in our memory. This happens because the birthday person often does not quite understand his role. In addition to receiving gifts and congratulations, he plays the role of a presenter, and this means that the holiday should go according to a developed plan, calculated to the smallest detail.
Step 2
Situation. A laid table, a sofa and a couple of chairs are by no means a festive interior. This does not mean that you have to spend huge sums on buying new furniture in bright colors. Show your imagination! Garlands, balloons, photos from your past parties, funny shots from the lives of guests - all this will revive the room and set the mood for the evening.
Step 3
Treats. Until now, we have been following the Soviet tradition of cooking until the loss of pulse from the early morning, a huge table for the whole room, barely withstanding the weight of the dishes. It's time to change something. Leave more time for yourself, because it is much more pleasant to meet guests in a good mood and beautiful clothes than in an apron and sweat.
The buffet table will save you. Set up a small table in the corner of the room. The variety of dishes depends on your imagination. Canapes, simple salads, snacks. Japanese cuisine will also perfectly fit into a buffet table. Place small plates and forks on the edge of the table (you can use disposable ones - a great option for quick cleaning after the holiday).
Step 4
Install an even smaller bar table next to the main table. Champagne in ice buckets, bottles of wine and decanters of cognac - arrange your favorite alcoholic drinks beautifully, next to it - glasses, glasses and wine glasses. These dishes should only be made of glass, disposable cups at the birthday party are bad form.
And don't forget the cake! This most important attribute of a birthday is a must. Again, you can change traditions without breaking them. Half a watermelon with candles, a pile of cakes with them - come up with a treat that will appeal to all guests, and put candles in it beautifully. Success is assured.
Step 5
Entertainment. Besides food and drink, guests will want entertainment. You are lucky if there are a couple of people in the company who are ready to take on the duties of facilitators and will keep a good mood all evening. But we need to be ready for another development of events.
The guests who are hot with alcoholic drinks will more than positively react to all kinds of contests and games. Getting into a bottle with a pen tied to your pants, guessing a character written on your own forehead, composing a poem about a birthday boy - simple and uncomplicated entertainment will not leave any of the guests aside.
