This guide helps you in planning out a memorable event on the Eid al-Fitr, in a limited time

Talk it out with Everyone

Don’t try to plan it all on your own. Instead, turn it into a family business and involve your whole family in it. They can provide you with their own version of fun and you can just take some fresh ideas from your family youngsters as well. 

Plan out your Shopping Nights

Fasting at day time along with offering your prayers and doing preparations for Iftaar can wear you out considerably. So, we suggest you to cleverly plan out your Eid shopping nights and make sure you have everything on your list to buy that night. Divide the nights with themes such as one day as a kids shopping day, another one for ladies shopping night out, etc.

Plan out your Menu

Eid al-Fitr marks the end of 29/30 days of fasting, and that means you can eat even when the sun is up. So planning a proper menu for the big day takes priority over everything else. You can make traditional dishes on your 1^st day of Eid, you can take custom requests from every family member and make their wishes come true on the 2^nd day and can try some international foods or dine out on the 3^rd day, in any way you want.

Make a Planner

After finalizing your menu and shopping schedule, start turning out your ideas and plans for Eid al-Fitr into reality with proper organization. Whether you want to throw a party on the big day for the relatives and neighbors or you want to take out your family on a picnic, or pack up your whole stuff and hit the road for a thrilling adventure, take everything into consideration and draw out your plan.

Plan a Travel Trip

Islamabad or Istanbul? Dubai or Maldives? The possibilities of planning for travel outside your country at the end of the holy month seem endless. After doing your research, you can decide your dream destination depending on your budget. Reach out to Airlines in your country or contact a travel agency to get the basic idea about the total expenses.

Decor your House

Liven up the atmosphere by decorating up your house. Use balloons, banners, lights and much more. Involving others makes it fun by letting the whole family brainstorming the ideas. Decide the theme and go with it.

Lastly, Involve Everyone

Eid is the festival of joy and happiness, and happiness is when everyone that you love is involved in every activity. So involve everyone in your planning for the holy festive from Eid shopping to the Eid party decoration.
