Let’s just say I love to party. In fact, until my second child was born I was a professional party planner, and children’s birthday entertainer.
I think it is safe to say that I am a party girl; and am always scoping out the net for awesome ideas, and for a reason to celebrate. If I can find an excuse, I truly believe any reason is a good reason for cake.
I remember surfing the net in my spare time (like a mom has spare time haha, I was probably procrastinating). Anyway, I was tired of the sites that were available to me. The sites that Google was picking up first in their searches. I found almost all of them to be store owned, or old sites that had been around since the beginning of the net. Surly, if a Hannah Montana movie just came out; there had to have been more out there then spammy posts and some store wanting to sell plates with Miley’s face on it, right?
Sometimes, I hate the way search engines work. I hate when I search birthday party ideas, and I get birthday party products instead. It is kind of sad when you think about it. I don’t mind a link to a product here or there, but when there are more products on a page then ideas we certainly have a problem. Don’t you think?
So, I decided to take my party planning know how, and start the Party Planning Professor. It’s not that I certainly am the “all knower” of Party Planning. There are tons of party experts out there, but I know you don’t need to be an expert to throw a great party. Party Planning Professor was started so that you, and I together can share ideas, save money, and celebrate. Really, the Party Planning Professor is not me, it’s all of us “professing” that party planning can be a piece of cake.
So, with many adjusting and reorganizing the Party Planning Professor platform is now open. Not only to our selected experienced writers but, it’s also open to anyone that has planned a party, and has shared their memory of it on their blog.
This is exciting news! This means links on our blog to your blog about “YouR” parties with “YouR” ideas. This……
A. creates traffic to your blog introducing a new audience to your voice (which hands down I bet if both of you have a daughter that loves Hannah Montana you have more then that in common)
B. Helps others make memories as cool as yours, and that could put a smile on anyone’s face.
And last but not least……..
C. Puts Google back on track and creates another way for birthday party ideas to be searched without all the noise.
The way I look at it……..IDEAS first PRODUCTS after.
So, what can you do?
Submit your ideas to the Party Planning Professor. We would love to read them, and if they fit the criteria we would love to link to them. You may even become the site of the week too! How cool would that be??? If you don’t know ask @cupcakes5 or @MrsMoNJ, both had rockin parties; and they were nice enough to share them with the Party Planning Audience.
Or write a blog post about Party Planning Professor, and how it offers great “Birthday Party Ideas” If you do this we will ad you to our blogroll, and will love you forever if you do this

So, there you have it. How the Party Planning Professor started. What we can do for you, other party animals like us, and how we can set search engines straight. In the mean time we can just continue to blog, party, and be moms. Really it’s that simple! So what are you waiting for??? Didn’t you have a Thomas the Tank Engine post some where? Or what about that princess party you threw last year? Share it? We want to read them!



I am Elizabeth, and this here is my party planning frontier. I am not from the west but wish I was so I sometimes talk with a southern-drawl. (We can all dream right?) I am actually from Cape May, NJ and love to party. You can lean more about me 




I just posted about the Lego Party we had for my 6-year-old son. Here you go:

This is a great idea! I love party planning, but I hate the party products. I hardly ever buy them anyway. I prefer to come up with my own decor from items we own (the construction centerpiece created from my daughter’s own toys and an orange cone a la soccer coach walkway were a hit at last year’s truck theme). The only post I have that details the actual theme, though, is from my archives. I find that odd since I do lavish parties at home each year for all 3 girls. Here it is, though:
