Planning a birthday party for 30 kids. AI saved my sanity.
My daughter wanted a fairy garden party for her 7th birthday. Thirty kids. Our backyard. I had no idea where to start.
I gave ChatGPT the brief: 30 kids ages 5–8, outdoor fairy theme, $600 budget, 3 hours, I'm doing it myself. It gave me a full run sheet — welcome activity, games, craft station, food timing, cake, lolly bags. It even suggested which things to prep the night before versus morning of.
I asked it to write the invitation wording, suggest decorations I could make cheaply, and give me a shopping list broken down by category. I ended up spending $540 and it looked incredible. Multiple parents asked which party planner I'd hired.
I told them it was AI. They didn't believe me.
