Which day for a 1st birthday?

DS first birthday is June 26th. We are doing it outside in a park.

I am having a hard time picking the best date. I know how busy end of June is, with prom, graduations and weddings. We have all 3 of those things happening in June. I also have family coming out from the Bronx for the party.

The party will start at 1 on either day we choose. So what do you ladies think, which day is better?

My DS's birthday party is the 25th and I'm competing with 3 graduation parties - so with that in mind, I'd say Sunday.

I'm a fan of Saturday parties so you can just relax on Sunday

Actually, I would do the exact opposite, and do Saturday. If I'm remembering correctly, a lot of hs graduations are on Sunday (and could be the 26th). So, you might get more people on the Saturday instead of Sunday.

I would do Sunday. The day of his birthday in this particular case.

This year though I am doing Saturday instead of Sunday.

Re: Which day for a 1st birthday?

Thanks ladies for your input. I swear I don't how I would deal with out this board. I asked DH last night what he though as far as which day and he said either one works for me. Pick the one that isn't going to rain. Chat Icon Chat Icon So now I have the power to see the forecast weeks in advance.

Had my DS party at home and so happy I had it on a Saturday. It gave us all day sunday to clean, play and relax. No rushing around to get ready for work the next day

I picked the 25th for other reasons. Although parties are a lot of fun, they are a lot of work and tiring for you and baby. You need sunday to rest.Chat Icon

Also, I remember my HS graduation being on a sunday.
