Welcome to the official blog of BeeYond Paper!

Halloween will be here before you know it, making now the perfect time to start planning a fun children’s Halloween party. Many parents are leery about sending their children out into the dark for door to door trick-or-treating. A children’s Halloween party is an excellent alternative. You may be surprised at the kind of party you can throw with a small party budget.

If you ask any child what their favorite holiday is, Halloween ranks right up at the top. Children of all ages will start planning their costumes and anticipating their candy haul the minute the Halloween party invitation comes in the mail. When your guests receive their Halloween party invitation, they’ll instantly remember Halloween fun from previous years, including what they dressed up as, the candy they received, and all the fun they had.

Halloween Party Invitations Set The Mood

Since Halloween parties have gained popularity in the past few years, yours may be just one children’s Halloween party happening on this holiday. If you want your party to be the one guests want to come to, consider buying one of Beeyond Paper’s many styles of Halloween party invitations. Beeyond Paper has everything, including invitations that are fun and funky, classic and whimsical. Whatever the tone you want to set for your children’s Halloween party, you’ll be sure to find the perfect invitation.

Since the Halloween party invitation will be the first glimpse guests have into your party, choose one that goes with your party’s theme. For instance, if you’re planning a party complete with an authentic haunted house for teenagers, find an invitation such as the spooky Sleepy Hollow or Fright Night styles. If your party is more for younger children, choose a design that’s a little tamer, such as the Jack and Candy, Boo, or Pirate’s Hat designs.

No matter which design you choose, make sure the Halloween party invitation includes all the necessary information like the date, time, and location of your party. If the party is for younger children, it’s also a good idea to let parents know if they should stay at the party or just drop off their children. Also, make sure to ask about any food allergies when parents RSVP. Halloween can be a scary holiday, there’s no need to add a hospital visit to the evening.

Food And Fun!

The food at your children’s Halloween party doesn’t have to be complicated. Continue the theme set by your Halloween party invitations by choosing paper goods that coordinate.

Children will love healthy snacks, such as carrots, pieces of cheese, and sandwiches cut using Halloween themed cookie cutters. That peanut butter and jelly or ham sandwich suddenly tastes a whole lot better when it’s shaped like a scary ghost or cat. For dessert, decorate cupcakes like witches using a sugar cone or have a sugar cookie decorating contest where kids can eat their entries. Nothing beats a scary witch’s brew punch with a little dry ice and special ice cubes with plastic spiders frozen inside for effect. It’s easy to see that fun and memorable party food doesn’t have to cost a lot.

You will likely want to plan a few party activities since kids need a little more structure than adults. However, these games don’t have to be complicated. Modify birthday party games and play “Pin the Hat on the Witch,” “Blind Ghost’s Bluff,” or play Bingo using Halloween words and candy as game markers. If your guests are on a bit of a sugar high, consider modifying “Duck, Duck, Goose” into “Witch, Witch, Monster.” Don’t forget to add in monster noises. Another fun activity is a costume parade. Just make sure to get a group photo of all the kids.

Fun Party Favors And Personalized Touches

A fun party starts with unique Halloween party invitations and extends to food and games, but doesn’t end there. Small children will love finding their own party favors amongst creepy spider webs or with the help of a personalized scavenger hunt. As the guests leave, don’t forget to give them a picture of everyone in costume.

Take the time to plan a great party, from Halloween party invitations to party favors. Your guests will leave wanting to know the date of your next party.

If you’re planning a wedding, you’re probably looking for ways to make your wedding stand out in a crowd. You’ll need to choose unique wedding invitations and stationary, decide where to hold the ceremony and reception, and choose the wedding day attire, including the bride’s and bridesmaids’ dresses. The first glimpse guests get of the wedding is from the wedding stationary, especially the save the date cards and unique wedding invitations. These save the date cards, invitations, reception cards, RSVP cards, and thank you notes will set the tone for your celebration and are the perfect places to highlight your unique personality. Many couples are foregoing old fashioned, embossed designs, choosing something that’s fun, funky, and fresh.

Save The Date!

If you’re planning a wedding, it’s considered proper etiquette to give your guests advanced notice. These special save the date cards let guests know when and where your wedding will take place and are especially helpful if you’re inviting many out of town guests or going on a destination wedding. These special cards can give your guests enough time to coordinate travel plans and taking vacation days from work when necessary.

Although they’re called save the date cards, these announcements can show off a couple’s personality by using either a postcard or even a refrigerator magnet. Beeyond Paper even has designs shaped like the state the couple lives in, perfect for letting out of town guests know where the wedding will take place. Other designs include ones tied with ribbons or fully personalized designs featuring a picture of the couple.

Unique Wedding Invitations

Beeyond Paper offers some of the hottest and trendiest designs of unique wedding invitations, including ones that are printed in a modern damask motif, tied with ribbons, or even ones that fold up into their own envelopes. Although formal wording is the most traditional, Beeyond Paper is seeing couples putting their own personal spin on their unique wedding invitations with invitation wording that’s fun and whimsical.

Along with unique wedding invitations, consider sending out RSVP cards, reception cards, and even a map to let guests know how to get from the ceremony to the reception. It’s common for couples to have RSVP envelopes custom printed with their address to make it easy for guests to reply.

Stationary For The Reception

To make it easy for couples to continue the theme set by your unique wedding invitations, Beeyond Paper has a complete coordinating line of stationary for the reception. Couples can let guests know where they should sit by using place cards and table numbers. If you’ve decided not to assign seating, consider placing menu cards on the tables so your guests know what they’re eating for dinner.

Don’t Forget The Thank You Notes

After you’ve opened all the wedding gifts and come home from your honeymoon, it’s time to thank all your guests for their generosity and attendance at your wedding. Although this is generally considered a chore, Beeyond Paper has a number of fun and unique designs that will make writing your thank you notes a pleasure. Although etiquette says couples have a year to send out their thank you notes, the faster the better. Your guests will love feeling appreciated and the thank you note will be a great reminder of the fun they had at your wedding.

No matter what type of wedding and reception you’re planning, Beeyond Paper has the perfect unique wedding invitations. Whether you’re looking for fun, funky, or formal, you’ll be sure to find ones that match your personality.
