Who to Book for a 50th Birthday Party

How a Blue Mountains 50th Birthday Comes Together

A 50th usually gathers family, old friends and workmates in one room, and many hosts want it to feel like an occasion. The Mountains suit that, with grand hotel rooms above the valleys and gardens that look their part in spring and autumn.

The other route is a party at home, where hire gear turns a deck or lawn into the venue and guests can wander out to the view.

Ways to host a 50th up here:

  • A seated dinner in an art deco ballroom at Medlow Bath, taking up to 250 seated or 400 standing
  • A smaller lunch in a dining room that looks across the Megalong Valley
  • A marquee at home with flooring, lighting and heaters, with hire from $195
  • A DJ or live act for dancing once the speeches are done
  • Event stylists for flowers, linen and table settings that match the season
  • A photographer for an hour to catch the family groups before people head home
