Where to hold your event

So you are planning to hold an event deciding where to hold the event can make or break the party! To best decide where you should hold the event comes down to a few different thoughts.
1. How many people will be there
2. Is it going to be indoors or outside.
3. What is the general age range of the guests.
4. Will you be having entertainment.
5. Will the event be catered.

If we look at these 5 points It makes sense that if you are going to have 100 people come to a graduation party it probably will not be a good idea to have it inside your home. Unless you have a White house as a home. So you are inviting 100 people now to decide inside or outside.
There are Pros and Cons to both. so lets move to number 3. If it is all adults and no children or very few children then Inside would be a good option, since kids generally like to run and burn off energy, especially at a kids birthday party which is where you would need someone like Paul Antonio a kids party Magician http://www.paulantoniomagic.com/kids-birthday-party.
But if it were All adults then inside or outside both work, If you choose outside think about renting a tent from a local tent company. In the event you are having a graduation party and there will be both adults and kids if you choose inside it is a good idea to hire somewhere a bit larger that the kids can again move around. Paul Antonio has Performed at many events like this where he puts on a show to keep the younger ones calmer.
If you are having Entertainment you should look to book the best your budget will allow but do remember cheap isn't always good. An experienced performer will add to your event. do your research, ask questions. How long in the business? do they have reviews..not so much good ones they could be solicited, but nobody solicits bad or poor reviews, If they don't have 5 star reviews your event could be the next poor performance, Look at Paul Antonio Magic Buffalo NY a full time professional performer with 5 star reviews across a number of different media, some are seen on the home page of the corporate magician website www.paulantoniomagic.com the entertainment should always be age appropriate and audience appropriate, you wouldn't want to book a blue comedian for a kids birthday party. A true corporate magician keeps everything light and company friendly, but for a graduation you need someone like Paul Antonio who has the ability to perform a magic and variety act gr=eared to all ages.

If you are to cater the event decide on how much food you will need, generally 20% of the guests invited will not arrive to the event for one reason or another. If you are outside and having catering brought in you may want to consider not ordering salad from the caterer but instead buy salad ready made at your local supermarket and then at the event just drop it into a disposable catering (roasting) tray. This will save you a little money and will not make a difference to quality of the event!

Whatever your event Paul Antonio Magic is a great choice and travels across USA and Canada.
