5 Things You Need For A Fall Party!

Fall is in the air, and with it comes the desire to gather with friends and family, and host fall parties and get-togethers! We love a themed party, and what’s a better theme than Fall?! So much you can do, so many ways you can decorate, and even better, the children enjoy the fun just as much as we do.

In honor of Fall-themed parties, we thought we’d put together a list of MUST-HAVES for your next get-together. Take these with a grain of salt, you CAN do it all yourself, but why do that when you can hire out some help and actually enjoy your party?!

1. Hire A Bartender (Not Your Cousin)

Yes, you can save money by bartending yourself or counting on one of your guests to do so. The thing with that is someone is missing out on all the fun to continuously make drinks all night, and usually, the drinks are just ok.

Mobile bartenders are perfect for this role. They take care of all the alcohol and bar cleanup for you, and will even make signature drinks for YOUR party! If you’re in the LA area, check out Curly Bartender, they are perfect to take care of all of your guests’ alcohol needs.

2. Book Balloons From a Professional (Not the Dollar Tree)

Balloons are a must-have at every party. Since you can buy a pack of balloons on your own, this can be an easy place to skimp and try to do them yourself. This Fall, let’s not skimp! There are balloon professionals who would love to make for you the balloon bouquet or garland of your dreams! Plus balloon garlands are much harder to create than they look. Sys Balloon Designs by Nancy is perfect to design for you a spooky look you’ve been dreaming of. Check out her website for info!

3. Order A Custom Cake (Not Like Your Mother’s Box Cake)

Cakes are often a place we choose to save when hosting a party. We can buy a box of mix and do it ourselves or pick up one from the market. But just this once, why not go all out and have the best Autumn/spooky cake in town? Yes we can make it, or our mother’s can, but there’s nothing like a beautiful custom cake to end a special night with. Also, you have a bunch of extra time to focus on other parts of your Fall party, like decor, when you are not baking the cake yourself!

Check out Samantha’s Cakes N Bakes for the fall party cake of your dreams! She serves the San Fernando Valley and Los Angeles area, visit her website for more info!

4. Order Flowers from a Florist (Not of the Fake Ones)

Flowers are definitely a task that’s better when trusted to the florists. They can take your bouquet vision and bring it to life with every flower imaginable. With your vision and their knowledge, your fall party bouquets will be a hit!

Check out the Blooming Vase for the perfect custom flowers for your next occasion!

5. Order Custom Cookies (And Enjoy Your Party!)

Cookies are one thing that you can definitely tell when they are done by a professional. For your Fall party, make sure yours are baked (and more importantly, decorated!) by a professional. Let them know your theme and let them run with it! Again you’ll be able to focus on things like decor while someone else makes the perfect cookies to match your Fall party theme. Your guests will thank you for the deliciousness they get to devour!

For cookies that are finger-licking good and beautiful to boot, check out Frost Your Cookie bakeshop! Your Fall party cookie prayers will definitely be answered.

Like we said you CAN do it all. But parties are so much more fun and in line with your vision when you delegate some of your party-planning responsibilities and leave them to the professionals. With a couple of vendors, your Fall party can be enjoyable not only for your guests but also for you! Take a look on Festively.com to find a perfect vendor near you.
