If you’re in the middle of planning the big bash, you might be feeling overwhelmed and want some help. How can you make sure everyone stays safe? What about staying within your budget? And last but not least, how will you keep track of everything you planned? Follow these guidelines and your party is sure to be a success.

1. Safety first - Even though your guests are old enough to know what is safe and what’s not, the majority are still minors. Have enough adults to help you supervise in order to avoid any unwanted mishaps, but don’t forget to still have fun!
2. Checking your budget – Always refer back to your budget while you’re planning the celebration. Make sure to allot extra money for any unexpected expenses, and don’t forget to set an end time for the party to avoid having to pay for extra hours. If you’ve planned carefully, then going over budget shouldn’t be a concern.
3. Keeping track – As you prepare for the party, keep a checklist of all the things you’ve done, what you need to do, and how much you've spent. This way, you won’t find yourself tangled up and confused about what is left to do as the day gets closer. It is also a good idea to keep any receipts and paperwork in a folder for easy access down the line.
