What does a 30th birthday symbolise?
Once you’ve reached adulthood, few birthdays demand a grand celebration. Thirty is one of them! At 30, you’re young and independent, but you’ve also probably started to settle down and take on more responsibilities. Though it can be difficult for some to say goodbye to their carefree twenties, this is also the first milestone birthday where you can start to celebrate ageing and what you’ve accomplished in the previous decade — graduating, climbing up the career ladder, travelling or meeting the love of your life. 30 deserves a party!
Check out this ultimate 30th birthday party planning checklist to make sure you don’t forget anything important and make your event planning as easy as possible.
