According to party planner Georgina Bruinsma-Cajic, she always advises clients to have a “the show must go on” attitude no matter what the forecast. Don’t be rigid in your vision; be flexible with your plans. If the event is a sit-down dinner, make it an indoor buffet or cocktail party if a lack of chairs is an issue. If it’s a kids’ party, have indoor games prepared as if the party was planned this way.

2. Devise a plan

Arrange the party into multiple stages, such as games, food, cake, presents and crafts. If rain should occur, you can easily mix up the different party components so that the stages that can be done indoors most easily take place when it’s raining; then, with any luck, the rain will clear up in time for you to go outside.

3. Roll with it

This idea works better if it’s a kids party, but hey! aren’t we all children outside? If it is certain that the weather will be bad for your child’s birthday, let the rain become part of the fun. The night before, request that kids/your friends to bring raincoats and boots because play activities (using water balloons and the sprinkler) will be outside.
