Tips for your birthday party
Keep surprises off shared calendars
For a surprise party, share the link directly with helpers, and take care that it doesn't reach the guest of honor.
Agree who brings the cake
It is the one item a party can't go without. Claim it first, and ask about flavors and allergies.
Give someone the arrival job
One helper should be in charge of getting the guest of honor there on time.
Collect photos early
If you are making a slideshow, ask people for photos a couple of weeks ahead.
Common questions
Is it OK to ask guests to bring food to a birthday party?
For casual adult parties, yes, especially when friends are co-hosting. A sign-up list makes it easy for people to help.
Can I use this for a kids birthday party?
Yes. It suits parents helping with snacks, games and setup.
Will the birthday person see it?
Only people who have the link can see the sheet, so share it carefully.
