The main idea behind hosting a kitty party is for a group of friends with common interests coming together to organise a monthly gathering to do something intellectually stimulating and to have some fun and relaxation. It acts as a stress buster to most women who need to take a break from their routine. Mostly women plan this activity in the afternoon when the kids are at school. It is held once a month hosted by every member in rotation.

Usually, a fund is collected from all members by each one contributing a certain amount every month, and a draw is held every month until all the members win and receive the fund, or it is simply pre-decided, and the fund is handed over to the respective recipient every month. However, mostly these gatherings take place for the purpose of socialising and having fun. Since this is a monthly affair and the members expect fun, one should know how to maximise the fun within a budget.

1. Venue

Generally, kitty parties can be hosted at home but if your group consists of many members, consider booking a venue like a small banquet hall. A banquet hall also comes with many other conveniences like the food arrangements, parking, decoration and each of these services can be acquired as per your budget In the metros it's hardly convenient to host a party at home and take care of all the arrangements by oneself.

Considering the tedious and time-consuming process of having to look into each and every little aspect of the kitty party arrangements it would be wise to book an appropriate venue for the occasion. For e.g. banquet halls in Mumbai can be booked very easily through portals like hamaraevent.com. There are numerous options for party venues in Mumbai, and online venue booking has been made very simple on our portal. By doing so, the host can also enjoy the party.

2. Theme

Once the venue is checked in your checklist, select a good, fun theme for your kitty party. A theme introduces the fun element to your party even before it has begun. You can select from a wide range of themes such as Mughal, Retro, Jungle, Hawaiian, Black and White, Horror, childhood, wedding, village, Hollywood, rainbow, flowers, Bollywood, traditional (South Indian, Rajasthani, Bengali, Gujarati), Red Carpet, and Masquerade theme and request your guests to dress accordingly.

You can plan your menu, decor and music to support your preferred theme. All the above-mentioned themes can be made more fun and interesting with help from Hamaraevent.com. You can find verified list of Event planners and decorators on the portal.

Rather than hunt for vendors for every detail of your party, it would be advisable to refer to the vendor's list on our portal to save you some time, effort and resources. You can get your caterer to work out something creative and delicious within your budget.

Imagine a buffet or a dinner table filled with yummy dishes that suit your theme exceptionally well, look extremely tempting and appease your guests taste buds at the same time. It will linger on their minds as well as taste buds for a long time to come. Hiring the right vendors is a sure-fire way to make your party a success. Invest right.

4. Invites

Instead of buying expensive printed invitation cards, go online and send e-invites. If you prefer the paper invite type of invitation, why not make them yourself? This is one aspect you could enjoy doing. You may use card paper crayons, marker and sketch pens paints, stickers and much more. Have fun!

5. Decor

Do up the place as per your theme. Your guests should get a "feel", of the theme as soon as they enter. Talk to your decorator and let him or her understand the reason and implication of the decor. For e.g. if your theme is "horror", some aspect of your decor must be able to scare the guests to an extent.

7. Entertainment

It would be wise to invest in an event planner for your kitty party. Remember something about maximising fun within a budget? As long as you are hosting a party for fun sake, it is worth every penny to have a memorable time and how better than to hire an event planner who can assist you in preparing the timeline for your party and fill it up with events and activities for your guest's entertainment. It would be beneficial to call in the professionals to take charge of the entertainment. It will be an experience well invested in. There have been instances wherein after all the fun and games, the guests are still interested in having an engaging time watching a cooking demo, or a first Aid /emergency CPR demo or a talk on fashion, beauty, photography from experts in the respective fields.

In addition to that, if you are looking at more intellectually stimulating activities speak to your event planner about roping in resource persons to preside over discussions such as those on the modern woman and her legal rights, child safety, bonding with your teenager son or daughter, parenting tips, etc. Alternatively, your event planner could suggest activities like nature walks, short historical trips, book readings, poetry discussion, etc. By hiring an event planner, you may find that you have actually saved on many costs you would have otherwise incurred in making your party a grand success.

           The activity desired may be chosen by you and your group, but your planner may help you organise it better, reduce your hassle and enhance your experience of the event. When you have invested one such party, you will not have it another way. Such an investment in your happiness and experience is possible by many standards within budget with the assistance of Hamaraevent's vendors.

Consider and evaluate your options before making a decision. You may want to meet and look for certain aspects before hiring any vendors. Schedule a meeting and have a word with the vendor, ask for references, and chalk out a mutually beneficial arrangement. You may want to understand the level of customer service they are willing to provide and their responsiveness before you hire them.
