Three Easy & Inexpensive Party Ideas

With our current economic roots in the money saving details, we've all come a long way.

Because of this party styles have changed. They vary from the classic and traditional to the smaller economic kind that are "short and sweet"; scaled down with no decor, and boring.

Add your personal and corporate variables and a few go-to items and you've got three good, easy & inexpensive party ideas that will work for anyone.

What's hot!


The breakfast is a refreshing, almost edgy departure from the same old, same old - otherwise known as a traditional evening party.

Drawing on what we're asked for (parties that are different from the others, parties that will that set a client apart), breakfasts are the best compliment - by taking the obvious and making it fresh and new again.

If you're thinking about planning a corporate breakfast party, fine tune your concept and go from a "regular" weekday to a spectacular weekend breakfast party gathering.

How to make it hot


Think beyond the bacon and eggs, the food.

Start with a boring "canvas" or room. Then give breakfast some credit and shock everybody, and add amazing color. Actually put as much design and decor thought into this as any other party you'd have. Give your breakfast the same level of respect as your other parties by adding great music provided by a live jazz combo or a deejay spinning great jazz, and gorgeous decor - including floral arrangements.

THREE EASY & INEXPENSIVE PARTY

Incorporate"the breakfast" into your party design wardrobe with the following go-to items:
  1. A coffee bar with baristas
  2. An elegant breakfast appetizer buffet
  3. A beautifully decorated party space/environment

Why we love it


You can't go wrong here. Hosting a breakfast party works if you're willing to choose a new party style trend that will save you money, and time. Draw the focus to breakfast's economic savings.

Getting a luxe look doesn't mean you have to break the bank.


If you're planning to hire a professional caterer or event planner, remember - because you're opting to host a breakfast - you've immediately saved yourself a substantial amount of money. For many caterers and planners, breakfast bookings are far and few between. They will be happy to book your morning event and will most likely reward you accordingly (with some time of a perk, maybe?).

Hosting a daytime breakfast party versus an evening dinner party, you'll have more money left over to class it up; assuring you that your party won't be typical and ordinary. Consider including flowers, guest goody bag gifts (known as "swag" or "swag bags"), fruit juices and a vodka/rum/champagne bar, and other attention-getting accoutrement.

Give your breakfast true party legitimacy with an ample party time line.

Book it as a typical 5 or 6 hour event - as if it were an evening party. Take advantage of an opportunity to be an original.

Host Halloween, birthday, Christmas holiday office party, and anniversary and retirement breakfast parties, just to name a few. Be sure to use the three easy & inexpensive party ideas listed above and make your breakfast upscale, and the talk of the season.
