30th Birthday Ideas for someone with not enough friends for a party.

[OverdressedtobeDepressed]

All the ideas I keep seeing online are meals out, or themed parties. I have 2 close friends and not a huge family so my birthday parties would look a little bleak 🤣

I just want to feel a bit special for my 30th this year - but I’m not very good at planning! So hit me with your ideas🫶

for context:
I live rurally
Cant financially afford to travel/go away for a night.
Have two young children.

Do your two close friends know each other and do they live near you?

Spa day with lunch

Spa day with your friends followed by a family dinner?

Could you have dinner at home but get it catered?

Or brunch at home with some lovely fizz?

Ask for a photo shoot as a present, get your make up done and get some lovely photos of you on your own as well as with the family

most people don’t have a big party for their 30th so don’t feel like you are the odd one out Just do something you enjoy

For a smaller gathering we’ve had cream tea delivered by a nice patisserie at home. Can include the kids and have a glass of something nice without worrying the children being unruly. Will be watching for other ideas as similar here! Would suggest a spa day but can be expensive. Groupon?

Hi rural are we talking? Does it have to be in the house?
