Invites

Paper invitations are not commonly needed unless it is a formal event like a wedding. Instead, all you need to do is send out a text, an email or you could use an invite platform like Evite. This is a free way to invite your guests and it allows your guests to RSVP too, so you will know how many people you can expect easily.

Some people will also use Facebook to invite their friends to a party, we would not recommend this, as let’s face it anyone could then turn up.

Check out theme based invitation cards.

Food

If you choose not to go with the bring a bottle policy, you may want to consider a bring a plate policy instead. This will not only save you money, but your guests will have a wider variety of foods to pick from.

Guest-list for a party on a budget

One of the toughest things about planning a party is thinking about the guest list. In fact, some people even lose sleep over the thought of it.

Dress-code

People can spend hundreds of pounds just on getting a new outfit especially for a party. But, you can still look beautiful without splashing the cash. Instead of buying something new why not do a wardrobe swap with some of your friends, you will all have something ‘new’ to wear without spending a penny.
