Elijah's 3rd Birthday Bash with Partify

It’s no secret…
Planning the perfect party for your kids can take a lot of time, energy & can get costly!
When contemplating throwing a party for Elijah, my initial thought was - “is all the stress even worth it?”. Unfortunately, this is the mentality most parents may have when contemplating party plans for their kids. As parents, we should NEVER feel this way about celebrating a birthday or special event in life, and luckily, there are resources for us to make birthday party planning easier than we could have ever imagined!
Partify: Austin’s Newest Kid’s Party Planning Service
Although planning a kids birthday party can be thought of as daunting, hectic, and downright stressful - it doesn’t have to be! With companies like Partify, planning your next kids birthday party is as simple as a mouse-click!
One of Partify’s most valuable assets is their One-Click Online Party Planning tool. This tool allows you to select food, cake, entertainment, venue, and other vendor information, all based on YOUR budget. In addition, Partify works only with top, highly-recommended vendors in the Austin-area, providing the most competitive pricing in town. The best part? The Partify one-click online party planning tool is FREE! Whether your budget is $300 or $3000, Partify is able to get you a free, customized quote WITH OPTIONS for the upcoming party, as well as do all the leg-work and book on your behalf.
For me, I received my customized quote within 3 days, and was able to submit my selections and have them booked within the week. With my busy schedule, having Partify take care of all the booking details was such a time-saver, and made my decision to enlist Partify as our party planning service a simple decision.
Local + Loyal to Austin, Tx
In any personal, career, or blogging venture, if given the opportunity, I will always choose to work with an Austin-based company over a larger, out-of-state company. What I love about working with Partify is that their company prioritizes smaller, local businesses over larger ones, which I truly appreciate, and value living in this thriving city! All vendor and venue options come with ample recommendation and quality satisfaction from previous clients, which is a win in my book!
Toybrary Austin
A true gem in the Central Austin area, Toybrary Austin was the best party venue I could ask for to host Elijah’s birthday party! Toybrary Austin is a toy lending library for children - but it doesn’t end there! This venue also offers childcare, “stay and play” services, special events, and of course, birthday parties!
Toybrary Austin is truly a kids dream. With several play rooms, a birthday party room, and an outdoor play area, there is endless, built-in fun for your kids and their party guests. Elijah and his friends had an absolute blast playing and venturing through all the rooms! Perhaps our favorite area of Toybrary Austin was the outdoor play area, featuring a colorful house with a patio, sandpit, wagons, tractors, and so much more. This area was such a hit, as the party fell on the most gorgeous November day. With shaded canopies and AstroTurf, the outdoor play area was safe and comfortable for all of our guests, and was the perfect place for our birthday party entertainment - Tiny Tails To You!
Tiny Tails to You
When considering entertainment for Elijah’s party - his first response was “ANIMALS!”. LOL, so that was that! Local to Austin, Tiny Tails To You was the perfect edition for the party. With the majority of Elijah’s party guests being around the age of 3, I was a little worried as to how their reaction would be towards the animals. Tiny Tails’ amazing staff member was friendly, informative, and extremely patient with the kids, showing them how to properly handle and pet the animals. Even the adults got in on the fun! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tiny Tails To You for your next kids party in the Austin area!
Partify Day of Event Planner
Perhaps the biggest thank you goes to our Partify Day-of-Event Planner, Marley, who was our “go-to” coordinator for all the details on the day of Elijah’s Party. In addition to delivering the cake - which was a huge help! - Marley assisted us with set-up, decorating the venue, coordinating with Tiny Tails To You, communicating with our guests, and of course, taking professional photos of all of the fun!
In all, she definitely took the reigns of all the day-of coordination, which was amazing! As your typical #InstagramMom who is constantly snapping photos, it was such a breath of relief to have our day-of-event planner focusing on capturing all the special moments, while I focused on Elijah and all of our guests.
My Words of Advice
COMMUNICATION IS KEY. Especially in this unique process! Although the majority of the planning is being done for you, it doesn’t mean you can’t be involved every step of the way. Ask questions. Get all the details. Be specific. For someone like me who prefers to “take the reigns” when it comes to planning important events, this was my biggest struggle! Thankfully, the Austin team at Partify were extremely friendly, courteous, and eager to make sure the process went as smoothly as possible - for both parties!
In conclusion
Birthday party planning can be scary, and you may not know where to begin. Partify truly made this process simple, stress-free, and above all, manageable in my already busy life. Partify allows you to focus on the important aspects of your kids big day, while they work behind-the-scenes to ensure all the details and coordination are in place. From a whole-hearted, personal experience, I would absolutely recommend utilizing Partify’s services for your kids next birthday party.
