Here are some tips on how to throw a great surprise party.

How to throw a great surprise party

The first step is to fix the date and time of the party. It is better to have the surprise birthday party a few days before the birthday date because it can really take the birthday boy, girl, woman or man by surprise. The time the guests arrive should be at least half an hour before the guest of honor arrives.

The next step is to decide the venue. It is difficult to make secret arrangements for a party in your home without the knowledge of your loved one. You can host the party in a park or hotel or beach or one of the celebrant’s favorite picnic destinations. If you are going to have a themed party, decide the theme too. It goes without saying that the theme should be something the celebrant likes.

Once you have decided the date and venue you can proceed to buy or make surprise party invitations. Surprise party invitations can be made at home if you have time and if the guest list is not too long. There are free templates on the internet that can be downloaded and printed at home. They won't burn holes in your pockets or break your bank. You can add embellishments of your choice and make them unique and impressive.

Surprise party invitations can also be bought online. You can browse the internet and choose the invitations to suit the tastes of the celebrant that also fit in your budget. Buying personalized invitations online is not very expensive. Personalized surprise party invitations add to the uniqueness of the party and give a personal touch to the invitation.

The wording of your surprise party invitations should be carefully chosen. If you are creative you can create your own wordings. If you are at a loss of words, don't worry. You can find plenty of ideas from the internet. Make sure that the invitation and wording are related to the theme of the party.

The dress code of your surprise party is important. The celebrant will not be aware of the party  so he or she will most likely be dressed in casual clothes. They may feel embarrassed if the other guests are dressed up formally. If you have a theme, you can ask the guests to wear dresses to match the theme of the party.

If the party is held indoors switch the lights off before the guest of honor enters the party venue. When the lights are switched on, your celebrant is sure to be taken by surprise when they see the party decorations and the guests. This is certainly a moment to remember and relish. Don’t forget a camera!

Avoid sharing the secret with children. They cannot keep secrets. Make the party simple. The more the grand the party is, the more it is difficult to keep the secret.

The memories of a surprise party last for a life time. They are beautiful memories that are not to be forgotten. Follow these tips and have a blast. Cherish the memories for years to come.
