First Communion parties have become a big deal
First Holy Communion
No longer do spring celebrations simply conjure up images of graduation parties or the beginning of the wedding season. First Holy Communion, a ceremonial admission of young Catholics to the community of the church, is becoming a main event. "Grand" and "elaborate" describe many an after-celebration for this rite of passage for 7- and 8-year-olds. What used to be a simple family gathering to mark the occasion has become a major affair that brings together family, friends, and classmates of the child. However, even though the guest of honor may be learning the latest dance routines or video games, it is important to keep in mind that this is not a typical child's party. Unlike a wedding, which is primarily designed for adults, or a child's birthday party, which is geared toward children, a Communion party will no doubt have guests of all ages. While the overall feel or theme of the party should be reflective of the child, it must also cater to adults as guests rather than as chaperones. Serenity Event Planners understand all that and offer you class, without the flash!!!

The most important part of planning any event is to have a clear idea going in of your focus and desired result and to realize that there could actually be more than one. As in the case of a Holy Communion celebration, there will be guests of all ages attending and the desired result you’d like to create for the young ones may be different than that for the adults. Serenity Event Planners understand every family is different in how they celebrate such occasions. The degree of formality is truly up to you.
If you’re planning a traditional banquet hall reception, you can’t afford not to have Serenity Event Planners in your corner. We will arrange for you to have a more structured event with time for toasts and speeches to tribute the guest of honor and family members, similar to a wedding reception. We will keep your child and guests entertained by having lots of activities for them. You might consider face painting, caricatures. Serenity Event Planners will do it all your way and within your budget!!! How about a casual outdoor affair? Serenity Event Planners can turn it into a carnival theme with clowns, jugglers, cotton candy, ice cream and hot dogs, etc… Could we tempt you on an indoor event? How about the Wizard Of Oz, Harry Potter, or Spy Kids, etc… Serenity Event Planners can make it all happen for you. Imagine cocktail hour (featuring mock Shirley Temples, of course) in Munchkin land or drinking a magic potion in Hog warts dining hall.
