These are easier to organize than
you think, you do need to plan well in advance but most of the "hard"
work is done by others. Places to use are easy to find within your
own community, these will be places like church or village halls and
most pubs or clubs have function rooms for hire.
Remember you should let the local
police know what is going on as well as the local residents.
Pubs or clubs are usually easier as they
already have the licensing agreement to serve alcohol but these can be
obtained for most venues, visit your local public house and ask the
landlord if he or she provides what you require.
You will want music, don't think for one
minute that you know what child is into music wise! you will have to ask
one of their trusted friends and then seek out someone who can provide
what they recommend. The right music will mean a great atmosphere for
all
Food is another thing you will probably
want to provide, sometimes the same people who are serving the drinks
will also be able to supply the food but if this is not the case visit
your local high street bakery and ask them, if they don't do it they
will most likely supply a company that does.
Remember things like taxis, I know its not
your job to arrange transport but if you find a local taxi firm who will
give you some of their leaflets why not mail them out with the
invitations. This will help people who may not be able to get to your
party and also not promote drink driving!
If you have a lot of people coming you may
need to think about security, not for your guests but a great party
could attract unwanted people and a doorman would only allow invited
people in
