Fifty is a birthday where the guest list spans school friends, workmates and family, and the aim is to get them all talking. The ideas that suit it here take the party somewhere a little different from a back room at the local.
Each one works for a different group size and pace, so start with the number of guests and how lively you want the night to get.
Three directions for a 50th:
Whichever route you choose, settle the date early: the end of the year is the busiest stretch for functions. For rooms, browse venues or private dining rooms.
The party boat lists charters from $1,480 for a 2-hour charter and takes up to 35 guests. Ask about longer charters, catering and drinks packages if you would rather not bring your own.
The operator runs hop-on hop-off and private tours with buses seating up to 24, from $89 per person. Ask what the price includes and where the bus picks up.
Yes, the DJ here also works as an MC and plays live sax and trumpet over the music. Agree the running order in advance so the speeches land before the dancing starts.
A boat keeps everyone together in one place for a couple of hours, which suits older relatives. A winery day is longer and more about moving between stops, so it suits a smaller group of friends.
Warm, dry summer days suit time on the water. Winters are cold with frosty nights, so from late autumn plan an indoor room or a heated space for the main event.
