How this works
Cost estimates are based on typical 2025 Indian party expenses. Food, drinks, and most categories scale with the number of guests. Venue costs are flat (one-time, not per guest). Budget level covers home setups with basic food vs. catered events with decorations vs. lavish parties at premium venues.
Frequently asked questions
- Which party types does this planner cover?
- Five: house party, birthday, Diwali, New Year, and farewell — each with its own realistic per-guest pricing for food, drinks, decorations, venue, and music.
- What's included in the budget, and does venue scale with guests?
- Six categories: food, drinks, decorations, venue, music, and misc. Venue is usually a flat booking cost (not per-guest) for bigger parties, while food, drinks, and the rest scale with your guest count.
- How do budget, mid-range, and lavish levels differ?
- Each party type has three real price tiers per category — home-cooked snacks vs catering vs a spread, basic decor vs themed decor, and so on — so the estimate matches the kind of party you're actually throwing.
- Is this party expense planner free, and do I need to sign up?
- It's completely free with no signup. To actually split who's chipping in and settle via UPI with your friends, Niptao (also free) tracks it and sends reminders.
