Milestone birthdays
make a difference in our lives. When we are young, it’s when we turn 18 or 21
and finally have all the rights of an adult. As we get older, it’s to celebrate
another decade of life. By celebrating the milestones, we can make them
special, and give them a positive meaning in our lives. When we’re younger, our
new rights are the goal, but as we get older, we need to celebrate our
milestones so that we can appreciate how far we have come.
They’re also the
perfect excuse to go all out, so if you need some ideas or tips to help you
plan for a loved one’s milestone birthday, look no further:
1.
Choose a Fun Theme
Go all out with a
theme for the milestone birthday, and don’t worry about traditions. You can
have a lot of fun with the theme because the point is to make this milestone
memorable. Get fifty penguin statues for a fiftieth birthday and put them out
on the front lawn. Go all out with a Vegas theme for a 21st
birthday. Make it fun, make it big, and make it a laugh.
2.
Get a Venue
If you don’t have the
space to host a big bash for your loved one at your home, rent a venue. There
are plenty of options that are budget-friendly or even offer a hybrid option.
For example, you can rent out a space in a bar for a small price, so long as
all the guests make up enough on the tab.
3.
Get Custom
Decorations
Custom decorations are
the perfect way to really sell the theme you’ve chosen and to delight the
birthday person. Think personalised cake toppers, custom balloons, and even napkins. The cheesier,
the better, because a big birthday bash deserves to make a huge impact. It’s
funny, it’s cute, and it’s memorable. When it comes to making a big deal about
a birthday milestone, those are the top three characteristics you want to nail.
4.
Invite Everyone (Well
in Advance)
Big milestone
birthdays are meant to be celebrated by all the birthday person’s loved ones,
so invite them. Just remember that many people have busy schedules, others
might even need to book a flight or make a big drive. Plan the party in advance
and make sure everyone prepares for the party.
Extenuating circumstances may still come up, but at least you can rule out logistical problems with a last-minute party out of the way.
5.
Tips for Gifts
You can go all out for
a milestone birthday gift or not. It depends entirely on your
relationship and your means. If all you can afford to do is plan a big day for
their milestone birthday, then that’s a perfect gift as it is. If you also want
to wow them with a big gift that they have had on their wish list forever, then
you’ll just make their birthday that much more special.
Milestones need to be celebrated, and if your loved one isn’t planning a big bash for themselves, then you should use this guide to plan it for them.
