“Birthday Plot Twist: How a Well-Meaning Parent Unraveled Their Daughter’s Special Day”
She recalled one of her most memorable party requests. “We had a client who wanted a full-on K-drama-themed birthday for her teenage daughter. She went all out, custom decor, themed food, even K-pop-inspired party favors. Every tiny detail was planned to match the theme perfectly.” With trends like movie-inspired parties, escape rooms, and interactive experiences gaining popularity, no idea is too big or too small.
It’s no surprise, then, that birthday parties can get expensive. A 2018 survey conducted in the U.S. found that 31% of parents spend between $51 and $100 per child’s birthday, while many go beyond that for bigger celebrations. Whether it’s booking a venue, hiring entertainment, or curating the perfect party bags, costs add up quickly, which is why some parents start budgeting and planning months ahead.
“The budgets today are more flexible than ever,” Ruchi pointed out. “Some parents have strict budgets, while others are willing to spend whatever it takes to create a truly magical experience. It all depends on what they want.” But whether it’s a grand affair or a simple gathering, the focus is always on making the day special memorable for the child.
“We spend days, sometimes even months, perfecting every little detail,” she continued. “It’s not just about balloons and cake anymore. Parents want elaborate themes, multi-tier cakes, personalized party bags, and entertainment that keeps kids engaged the entire time.” With so many elements to juggle, planning a party requires patience, creativity, and a whole lot of energy.
