2023 Birthday Guide

Every year, we as moms, plan at least one party…our child’s birthday party! Where do you begin? How do you start? Questions you may ask yourself are:

• Where and when? 
• Home or a venue?    
• What is the theme?  
• Who will you invite?   
• What type of invitations do you want?  
• What food, if any, will you serve?   
• What type of cake will you have? Or do you want cupcakes?   
• What decorations will you use?    
• What games and/or activities will you have? 

There are so many decisions to make. But, like everything we do here at Macaroni Kid, we try to make your life easier. So, we have created this Birthday Party Planning Guide. Here you will find our featured companies. We have local venues, cake decorators, and photographers. Good luck and enjoy!
