PARTY CHECKLIST

• Set a date – Advance planning ensures availability and accurate pricing from suppliers.
• Find your venue – We only organise 18^th Parties in clients’ gardens with marquees.
• Decide on your guest list – Write it down and stay realistic. Most 18^th’s are 80 to 150 guests.
• Discuss your initial ideas with others – Parents – talk to your kids, kids – talk to your parents!
• Think about how much you want to spend – This is the hardest part. Realistically the 18^th birthday parties we organise range from £10k to £30k – depending on your requirements.
• Imagine what will happen on the night – Do you want a drink on arrival? Do you want circus acts? Do you want food? Write this all down so you have a specification for your party and if you are short of ideas, we have thousands we’ll share with you for free!
• Call or email us!

Notes for Parents Organising an 18th Birthday Party:

If you’re the Parent or Guardian and let’s not beat about the bush here, the person paying the bill, we understand a successful party is a balance between your budget and your teenager’s vision of their absolute dream party.  As creative event organisers, we are almost always able to provide a number of practical solutions to make the dream a reality.

Our parties are the most talked about events of the year – for all the right reasons!

We know that each 18^th Birthday Party is unique to the person celebrating their “coming of age” and we are highly experienced in the many different requirements that are so much a part of this important milestone. Our vast experience and the creativity we put into each and every 18^th Birthday Party guarantees that it will be the most talked about event of the year. From the very first, no-obligation consultation we have with you, until the very last bit of clearing up is done – we take the responsibility to be in absolute control throughout every stage of your event.

You’re only 18 once. Make sure it’s a riot

Part of the success of our outstanding parties is that we control excess without obviously doing so. In this way you get excellent value for money with more than satisfied guests.

We take our responsibility for young people extremely seriously but they will never know that. We allow them free cocktails and drinks all night but have subtle ways of ensuring that they last till midnight rather than peaking by 9pm. We have found it is better to stay in control of the alcohol consumption with expert bar staff tailoring drinks to the guests, rather than restricting spirits which only encourages pre-drinking and bringing their own alcohol to the party. We advise that you allow us to thin the cocktails, if needed, in order to keep the excess in control. Do call Ben Leeke to discuss your fears – rest assured he’s done this plenty of times before – 07590 242526.
