One way to achieve these objectives is to plan for the event well in advance.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Start by thinking about the honoree.&nbsp; What type of event would they enjoy most?&nbsp; Are they adventuresome and would they enjoy a big surprise party or would they prefer a quiet dinner at home or at a restaurant with a few close family and friends?&nbsp;&nbsp; How much time, energy and money do you want to put into planning the event?&nbsp; Do you want your event to be a total surprise for the honoree, a partial surprise, or no surprise at all?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Birthday_Party_Planning_Plan_the_Event_around_the_Guest_of_Honor\"><\/span>Birthday Party Planning, Plan the Event around the Guest of Honor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are planning a total surprise think very carefully about how you will assure that your honoree attends.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you do some behind the scenes planning to, for example, arrange for the honoree to get time off from work, how do you know the honoree would appreciate this?&nbsp;&nbsp; An honoree who works as a server at a restaurant might not appreciate your arranging for them to get the highest tip night of the month off from work.&nbsp; Can you be sure that you have invited everyone your honoree would want you to invite (and perhaps, more importantly, to skip inviting people they would not want to invite).&nbsp;&nbsp; For these reasons we recommend that the honoree be involved with at least some of the planning for their surprise party.&nbsp;&nbsp; The honoree might help plan the starting time and ending time for the event.&nbsp; They should know where to meet their host, and they should have the opportunity to specify who should be invited and who should not.&nbsp;&nbsp; Also, you may want the honoree look forward to the event, rather than feeling left out for half of their birthday.&nbsp; If your honoree is adventuresome, all of the birthday party planning details can remain top secret, just tell them that \u201cthe surprises begin when the blindfold goes on<em>.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"One_of_the_regrets_Ive_seen_in_browsing_the_internet_and_have_heard_as_well_is_%E2%80%9Cwe_didnt_take_enough_photographs%E2%80%9D_Thus_I_recommend_planning_your_event_and_your_photo_album_at_the_same_time_Since_many_people_reading_this_blog_are_not_experts_at_party_planning_Ive_provided_a_website_wwwSuggestionsForBirthdayscom_that_will_guide_you_through_planning_both_your_event_and_photo_album_suggest_some_great_activities_and_even_some_additional_times_for_birthday_celebrations_such_as_100_day_or_1000_day_birthdays_that_can_be_accomplished_with_a_limited_budget_Be_safe_do_very_meaningful_and_memorable_activities_have_fun_and_produce_a_great_photo_album\"><\/span>One of the regrets I\u2019ve seen in browsing the internet and have heard as well is \u201cwe didn\u2019t take enough photographs.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;
