Occasionally, I will be asked to assist with only certain aspects of a party. In these cases the client is usually very keen to do most of the work themselves but wants to be coached through the planning and/or decorating process. And that was the case with our recent ‘The Wiggles’ themed party. The family and I sat down together and (with all my experience at their disposal) created a plan, divided up the tasks and created a programme for the night of the party. On the day I came in to co-ordinate their setting up team. They also hired me to take care of a few décor pieces that they really wanted, but were beyond what they felt they could achieve.

The party was a great deal of fun. Along with the BBQ dinner we served Hot Potatoes and Fruit Salad (two of ‘The Wiggles’ favourites). There was dancing and a lot of helium balloons. A real family friendly evening. Here are a few snap shots of the results:

The client also want a photo booth prop in the shape of the ‘Big Red Car’. Sadly I didn’t get any photos of it at the venue – so here is one of my son modelling it.
