Every great story needs a CHARACTER.
And that's where I start when I'm planning a party, too.
For me, that's the THEME.
But I don't start by asking:
"What decorations should I make?"
I start with:
WHO am I celebrating?
What do they love?
What feels like them?
What would make them walk into the room and immediately know this party was created specifically for them?
Then I start defining the big ideas:
π What's the theme?
π What's the cake concept?
π½οΈ What's the meal or snack concept?
I'm not choosing every food or designing the cake yet.
I'm deciding what belongs in THIS person's story.
For Jim, that answer started with something wonderfully simple:
"I want a Taskmaster party."
And that one sentence gave me my CHARACTER.
Tomorrow, we give our story somewhere to happen.
