Hey party people! Beverly here from https://themeparty.net/ with our first episode. Ever stared at Pinterest feeling completely overwhelmed? Been there! Before I planned corporate galas, I was that mom too.

Today's quick tip: do these THREE things before buying a single decoration.

- First, nail down your "why." Is this birthday about making your child feel special or impressing other parents? This question changed everything for my corporate clients.

- Second, create your guest list BEFORE picking a theme. I once had a client set on a wine tasting, only to remember half her guests didn't drink! Know your crowd first.

- Third, be honest about your budget. I've thrown stunning parties for $100 and disasters for $10,000. It's not about how much you spend, but spending smartly.

My high-end client secret?

Pick ONE "wow" moment and let everything else support it. That one perfect element becomes what everyone remembers, not whether you had matching napkins.

Remember what I told my celebrity clients: the best parties aren't perfect—they're personal.

This is Beverly, and I can't wait to plan alongside you!

Stay tuned for our next episode where I'll share some of my most memorable planned parties!
