Step 1 · Select the Guest Count
8-Guest Starter
Best for: boutique retail, small e-commerce tests and compact gifting.
Keep the kit focused and easy to pack. Consider plates, cups, napkins, one banner and limited accessories.
16-Guest Core Kit
Best for: mainstream birthdays, baby showers and online party brands.
Supports coordinated tableware plus favor bags, toppers or décor while keeping shipping weight controlled.
24-Guest Group Kit
Best for: larger celebrations, retail chains and event-oriented buyers.
Requires more attention to carton strength, component count accuracy and final landed-cost review.
