Question Posted Monday April 3 2006, 8:24 pm

Me and my friend are going to have a party just for random reasons but we want to rent a place to have it. The place doesnt have to be big just not sooo small. How much money do you think renting a place should be and can u give me some ideas of how to get that money. When you rent a place can you pick your hours or do they pick it for you? I need to get food also please some ideas on what to buy for food and how much all that is. Decorations i need a bunch of lights and all so that is probaly how much money?

First of all, the cost. About renting a place... I honestly have no experience there, so I don't know. It depends on the place, it's size, and other things, like how fancy it is. It also depends on the place if you can pick your hours or not, but I imagine that you could.

Do you want there to be a meal and snacks, or just snacks? I can't tell you a cost because it depends on how many people you plan on inviting.

Here's a list of some ideas:
-Hot dogs
-Hamburgers
-Tacos
-Salad Bowl
-Sodas (Make sure you have a variety. Coke, Sprite, Root Beer, Dr. Pepper, and the like.)
-Chips (Have a variety of these, too. Potato chips, tortilla chips, pretzels, etc.)
-Chips and Salsa
-Cake
-Candy (The little ones that you can get in bags)

About the lights: It depends on which kind of lights you want. Those Chinese lanterns are pretty cheap, and you can get them at craft stores. You can get strings of lights, like Christmas lights. At some places, they have ones with Summer-y designs and colors. Check places like Target and Wal*Mart for those.
I would avoid anything having to do with candles or fire if you plan on having a huge party, though.

For decorations, try a party store. It looks nice if you have a theme, and most party stores have a large selection of decorations for many themes.

Now, how are you going to get the money? Well, it depends on how old you are. If you're 16 or older, you can get a job.
If you're too young for an actual job, that's okay. You can do some of these things:
-Rake leaves
-Mow lawns
-Do more chores around the house
-Babysit
-Walk dogs
-Feed pets while neighbors are away
-Have a garage sale
-Set up a lemonade stand

Good luck with your party!

I hope I helped, and if you have any more questions, feel free to leave one in my inbox!

How can we honestly know.

We know nothing of the area you live. There could be several different places around you, but no ones prices will be the same and you might find some more expensive than others.

Your questions is extremely vague location wise. And also asking for money costs, no one here will have ANY idea. It could range from a mere $100 to several hundred dollars. It depends on the place, what decorations you get, what lights you get, and what kind of food you buy.

Speaking of food, the general food for a party is chips and dip with lots of cola (Pepsi, Coke, Sprint, 7UP, etc). And usually some kind of cookie desert or sweet desert (minus candy).

I can't honestly give you an estimation of any price. Your details were to vague. Now if you come back with more detail (say a location and specifics of how many people and decorations) then I could help you more.

Until then, no good. But I do hope I helped you with what little info I was presented with.
