Organise & Book your 80th Birthday Parties

About 80th Birthday Parties

An 80th birthday, what an occasion to celebrate! Historically the strength and longevity of the oak tree represents this birthday, whereas in modern times diamonds and pearls are given as gift ideas. As you reach this point in your life you may desire to delegate the planning and execution of the party to your children, grandchildren, or even great grandchildren!

Support the birthday host by reviewing their contacts list and select who they would like to invite to the occasion considering family, friends, ex-colleagues, neighbours, and even old school friends. Send out invites and begin to look for the right venue to mark the occasion.

Consider many venue options that provide the best location, transport links and style. Many hotels will have weekend availability for rooms generally used for conferences during weekdays, especially outside of wedding season. Review options available such as decorations, parking, and catering.

If you are looking to hire your own caterer, consider what kind of cuisine you and your guests would enjoy, perhaps some classic modern European dishes, an Asian buffet, or event party foods from the United States. If there is outside space you could consider having a barbecue or hiring a modern food truck which can supply hot dogs, pizza, or kebabs.

You may be thinking of finding your own entertainment for the event; and the options are numerous. Live bands, jazz musicians, dancers, and pianists are just some entertainment ideas. If you are inviting grandchildren, and younger family members consider providing entertainment for them such as table tennis, computer consoles and karaoke machines.

There will be so many great memories during the party so consider hiring either a professional photographer who will mingle amongst the guests taking photographs or hiring a mobile photobooth where guests can get together to create wonderful memories.

If the style of the evening is more suited to a smaller guest list, look for a restaurant, bar, or smaller room for the occasion. Some restaurants will have specific private dining room; or will provide you with your own area. Provide some sparkling wine or champagne on arrival; and look for a restaurant with the cuisine of your choice, perhaps Italian, Spanish, North African, American, Scandinavian, or Indonesian.

An 80th birthday is a very special occasion; so, let Evendo show you the best party rentals, catering and venues to mark the occasion.
