Consider where to have the party. This involves knowing the individual for whom the party is being thrown.
- Take into consideration what the birthday person wants. If he/she wants a more elaborate party, then work to plan the party in a venue that enables that. If he/she is into small gatherings with close friends, then aim for that instead.
- You will need to decide if you want to have the party in your home or someone else's home in order to keep the venue cost-free.
