When your child reaches his or her first birthday, it’s not just a milestone for them, it’s a milestone for the whole family, but planning a first birthday can leave you feeling frazzled! Manoa Grand Ballroom, a family owned and operated venue in Honolulu, HI, has been hosting affordable family parties for years!

In order to help you alleviate the stress, they offer their three easy steps to planning an unforgettable first birthday party:

• Determine Your Budget: As with any event, a first birthday party can be as modest or as opulent as you would like. Most venues charge based on the number of guests you have, but there are always catering upgrades and add-ons available so it’s smart to set a budget. Manoa Grand Ballroom offers Waikiki elegance at Mo’ili’ili prices with luncheon buffets starting at just $31.95 per person!
• Establish Your Guest List: Once you know your budget, you need to decide who will be attending and how many people you need to accommodate you can move on to crafting an event that the whole family will enjoy. Party venues like the Manoa Grand Ballroom can accommodate small groups of 40 and large affairs of 500 with equal ease.
• Consider Culture: One major advantage of working with the staff at Manoa Grand Ballroom is that they’re a family business that’s been operating on the island for five generations. They are experts at blending local traditions with the beautiful medley of Japanese and American traditions that uniquely define Hawaii.
