Planning a Purrfect Cat Themed Party
GUESTS: You want to decide if there will be guests (either human or fur baby, or maybe both!). You want to make sure you have a good head count when it comes to making further decisions on purchases for the party.
It is always better to plan for MORE guests than to run out of supplies. You want to make each guest feel important and that includes thinking ahead!
CHOOSING THE DATE OF THE PARTY: After you have a good idea who will be attending the party, you want to make sure to choose a date that will work for everyone. If this party will be for a child, a time where kids are out-of-school is a must. A party after school on a Friday or the weekend usually works best for parents.
If the party is going to be adults-only, you could consider holding it on an evening after work. A party after 6pm is totally acceptable for adults who work in and out of the home! If this involves fur babies, you will want to plan on a time that works best for their humans!
INVITATIONS: We live in 2021, so obviously you could easily send out an email or text inviting guests, but that isn’t very fun is it? We all remember the joy of receiving invitations we can hold in our hand! You can go with a design perfect for any kind of cat party, such as these Cat Party Invitations you can fill in!
If you want to go with something more adult and girly, these Kitty Face Party Invitations are a fabulous choice! They also include envelopes for mailing your invitations out if necessary! Regardless of your choice, either design will be purrrrrrfect!
PARTY SUPPLIES: Now that you have your party in motion, you want to set the best stage possible. You want cat party supplies that add character to your party, while also being practical! It also doesn’t have to break the bank. You can go with more basic choices that feature simple colours, such as pink.
However, going with more elaborate designs can really snazzy up a party! Choosing a party pack set allows you to keep your party supplies in the same theme and saves time! A cute set such as the Meow Cat Party includes paper plates, drink cups, napkins, cake topper, banner, table cover and balloons for 20 guests! If you have fewer guests and need different supplies, the Purr-fect Cat Birthday Party is for 8 guests and includes plates, napkins, cups and tablecloth!
FOOD: When it comes to party food, you have many options. One option is to go with a caterer. However, who really has the money for that when it comes to a party outside of extravagant events, such as a wedding. The next choice is purchasing premade food. It is a great way to save time, but not so much money.
The money-saving option would be to create the food yourself and/or prep the food yourself. Think easy choices such as fruits/veggies/hand-friendly options. For dessert, why not move away from the traditional cake and go with much easier to serve cupcakes! My Meowgical Caticorn Cupcakes as well as my Easy Kitty Cat Cupcakes are both party friendly and delicious!
The best part of a cat-themed party is that you can make it all your own! Hopefully these tips help you to make it the meowiest it can be!
