How to Plan a Kid's Birthday Party in San Diego
The exhilarating vibe of San Diego makes it perfect for any party. Once you select your favorite venue, you've got the base for a unique and memorable celebration. Our party planning guide helps to ensure that your event goes smoothly.
Set a Budget – How much can you realistically spend on hosting a party? Select a cost-effective private party space with the Giggster app, then add expenses for food, entertainment, etc. If the amount of your budget is exceeded, cut back to ensure you don't overspend.
Who to Invite? – If the child is old enough, ask who they would like to invite for their special day. Make a list of all invitees; be aware that the more guests, the higher the cost.
Decide on Food – Will you hire a caterer? Or, perhaps schedule a food truck? Be sure to ask about party packages to get a great deal. Other options include having a potluck, restaurant home delivery, or making the food yourself (or with the help of friends). If your venue is a private party room in a restaurant, you've got it made—no cooking or cleaning!

How to Save Money on Your Kid's Birthday Party in San Diego
It's possible to have a fantastic party without overspending. Here are a few suggestions from Giggster to help you save.
Are you thinking about hiring a decorator or balloon artist?
Rather than spend money to hire professionals, use your creativity, have fun, and save money by making your own decorations. Colorful balloons, streamers, and handmade banners create a festive atmosphere.
Have you considered a potluck?
Reduce food costs significantly and offer a great variety of food by having a potluck. Ask each guest to bring their favorite main dish to share.
What activities will you have for the kids?
Rather than buy or rent activity equipment, select basic activities like a scavenger hunt, face painting, or sack races. Kids would also have fun with a photo booth, which is included in some venues.
Can you reduce the guest count?
Reducing the guest count can help you save money on the venue, food, etc. Consider a special party room for a fun, intimate mini-party.
