I’ll start with a horror story (which I now find funny). Somehow I managed to break my wrist at my 10th birthday party. We were playing the game where you dance around and when the music stops, everyone has to sit on the floor and the last person to sit is eliminated. During the game I managed to snap my wrist backwards when I sat down and ended up spending the rest of my birthday in the emergency room. It really was my party and I cried because I wanted (needed) too.

I have a horror story, we have no pergola and one year having my sons birthday we put up a temporary cheap plastic pergola and it was soooo windy that day that everything went flying, the pergola literally lifted and fell over.. knocking everything off the tables, all the food and with people in it!! Pretty horrifying!!!
🙁
melbournemamma
Oh no Thetis. That doesn’t sound like much fun. I hope you can laugh about it now 🙂

We went all out for our daughter’s 1st birthday (her health complications meant we felt like we’d hibernated the entire year, so the birthday was the celebration for us re-entering the real world). My husband’s from a big Italian family, so we had more than 100 people on the guest list. I worked for WEEKS planning food, decorations and everything for a “Very Hungry Caterpillar” theme (including “holes” in the slices of salami, just like the book). We even had a film crew there because we’d asked for people to donate to the Mercy Breast Milk bank in lieu of gifts and the Mercy had sent a film crew. The day went so fast, as these days do. Looking back after the dust settled, I realised that we have NOT.A.SINGLE.PHOTO.OF.THE.ENTIRE.DAY. I mean honestly, not a single shot on a phone or camera of anything of the day. And I never heard back from the film crew so don’t even know if any footage exists. Great way to make memories. #partyfail
melbournemamma
Cathy you MUST contact them and see if they still have the footage. You would think in this day and age that everyone would be taking pics LOL
Samantha Wright
Mine is more funny than horror I guess. For my daughter’s 4th bday a friend helped me make an alice in wonderland cake and it was truly amazing from chocolate ganache, fondant of every color and sugar art cups and teapots.. everything on this extravagant cake was edible and just after we sang happy birthday I explained just this to a friend (and gloating a little) then the lady who helped make the cake quickly interupts to say maybe take the candles out of your girls mouth.. they’re actually not edible.. a little embarrassed ha ha Next party we’ll keep it simple..well we’ll try
melbournemamma
Hope they weren’t lit Samantha LOL
Debbie Gannon
10 minutes before party time my daughter did a big gastro style poo on the carpet. Poor poppet ended up sleeping through her entire 1st birthday. Horror and disaster!!!#
melbournemamma
Oh Debbie, the poor thing 🙁 Hope she recovered quickly enough to enjoy some of her birthday cake
Susan
Not a total party horror story, just a vivid memory of when all of my daughter’s party guests at her 3rd birthday got to witness her ‘dark side’ as she screamed at another little guest who blew out her candles before she did!
melbournemamma
Hell hath no fury, like the birthday girl scorned 😉
Faye
For my daughter’s 1st bday we got a jumping castle & us adults though why should the kids have all the fun? So we got all the kids out & in we went not realising how many of us actually got in. Within minutes of bouncing away the jumping castle deflated; we were like screaming cockroaches…laughing too much that we couldn’t even call out for help. Thankfully my hubby had gone to the loo & when he returned got the jumping castle up….you just had to be there to understand how hilarious it was; I still cry from laughter when I watch the video footage. .lol
melbournemamma
I would LOVE to see that video Faye. You should put it on youTube 🙂
Tina
We planned to have a party for our daughters first birthday with 40 guests in the park as we live in a small apartment. Of course after weeks of sunshine, it rained solidly for the whole day. Ended up being a very cramped celebration in our cosy living room :S
melbournemamma
Oh no Tina. Bloody Melbourne weather!
Aranea
Mine is a horror story or a funny story, depending on your perspective 😉
Many years ago, I attended the 6th bithday party of a good friend. We were playing musical chairs, and what we didn’t really know then (but know well now) is that I have somewhat of a competetive streak. It’s the final moments of the game, 1 chair, 2 competitors – me and the birthday girl. The music stops and birthday girl sits on the chair, hooray! But wait, runner-up me is not done yet, I push her off the chair and claim it for my own. The parents, distracted by the onerous task of starting and stopping the music, must not have seen exactly what went down, because I was awarded the monstrous 4-finger Kit Kat reserved for the winner… and it was delicious 😉
melbournemamma
Haha Aranea. I Love it!
Jodie
Not the worst horror story lol more of a planned party gone wrong!
I spent ages planning my 1st sons 4th Birthday! all our family and friends kids invited and his best friends from crèche!
First child so a party at home seems like a great idea…
the theme was Motor Bikes! we had piñatas, I made lolly bags the whole deal…
The main thing/activite was meant to be the motor bike rides! we had arranged for 2 small four wheeler bikes for the kids to have turns on. They were late then wouldn’t work!!!! oops….
Was also the first and last at home birthday party
melbournemamma
Sometimes home parties are more trouble and stress than they’re worth Jodie. Hopefully the boys got distracted by pinatas and forgot about the motor bikes.
Lisa
Wasn’t funny at the time but something to laugh about now.
My sister inlaw ordered a Birthday cake and provided an image of what was to be on the cake. At the party when cutting the cake, realized the image was not on edible paper but just the picture printed on an A4 piece of paper and put on top of the cake!!! She had to remove the sheet of paper before cutting and serving the cake. Never went back to that cake supplier again!
melbournemamma
OMG Lisa, that it hilarious! Non-edible cake images by Officeworks LOL
Jane Whelan
My son hated his birthday parties. He wouldn’t participate in his parties at all. He wouldn’t eat any of the food and hated the cake and the singing of happy birthday would him in tears. He has autism and his sensitivities made it hard for him to cope. Now we understand these things we keep his parties small make sure he has pizza and potato chips and a soft drink and he now participates.But if he doesn’t have pizza he wont eat at his or anyone elses birthday. So this is the perfect party for us. Good luck every one.
melbournemamma
Sometimes it can all be just a bit too overwhelming can’t it Jane. At least you now know what works. I love pizza parties too 🙂
Domenica
When I was a teenager my aunt convinced me to dress up as Bananas in Pyjamas to attend her child’s birthday party. The kids were on a crazy sugar high when I arrived and I was mauled and my banana head came askew from all the attention!
melbournemamma
You poor thing. Would love to see a pic please Domenica 😉
Kellie Radecki
Loved parties with the chocolate game always ended up in chocolate fights. I am now a chocoholic!!!
melbournemamma
mmmm chocolate…. now i want some 🙂
Lorraine
I grew up never had a birthday party before…because mum was too tired or even “horrified” with the idea of all the work to get the party started. I guess once upon a time I was this poor kid without a party =(
Kate
After much begging I conceded to have my daughters 6 year old party at home – 15 kids made their own pizzas and then (while the pizza’s cooked) trampled shredded cheese from one end of the house to the other.. Seriously everywhere! Her 7 year old party was at Bounce – prob cost $100 more but for all the prep time and cleaning up afterwards it was completely worth it.
melbournemamma
Sounds messy Kate but I bet the kids had lots of fun 🙂
Michelle Gray
My horror story is from the morning of my daughter’s combined birthday party, one by one I got text messages from parents cancelling, a gastro outbreak left me with two sad birthday girls, an abundance of food and a fairly empty house.
melbournemamma
oh Michelle, how disappointing. i hope the birthday girls still managed to have some fun,
Lyndelle Clissold
….I remember after one of my birthday parties at a restaurant I will not mention….every guest ended up very ill 🙁
melbournemamma
oops, that doesn’t sound good Lyndelle 🙁
Jemma
This is probably going to end up humorous (in a few years) and horrifying at the same time! Its our daughters first birthday in 2 weeks and I’ve been planning away for months! Except we’re trying to fit 40-50 plus kids in our small 3 bedroom house with a small deck area! Plus we have huge loud VERY outspoken family members which you just never know which way its going to go! Plus some of the family are meeting for the very first time and because of a few issues we have no idea how its going to go down!!
melbournemamma
make sure you have wine Jemma, LOTS of wine (not for the kids of course LOL). good luck!
Melanie Moran
My husband still reminds his Mum that she “ruined” his 7th Birthday party!! He asked for a pavlova as his birthday cake, and she accidentally made it with salt!
melbournemamma
oh no, i LOVE pavlova. that would have made me cry.
Alison Wilson
I remember my cousins 21st, where just as she was about to cut the cake, our elderly grandfather sneezed on it…. Not many guests wanted cake!
melbournemamma
perhaps that was grandpa’s plan all along LOL
Christy Seymour
last year i organized a party for my 4 year old and no-one showed up. he was so upset.
melbournemamma
oh my Christy, that is so sad. hope he has a fab birthday this year.
