Bring everyone together for Nan’s 90th
Grandkids, great-grandkids and relatives from all over. Plynr keeps the whole celebration in one place, so the family can focus on Nan.
Sound familiar?
Family spread far and wide
Relatives in different cities and countries need plenty of notice, and the details get lost along the way.
Not everyone’s in the group chat
Some relatives are on email, some on text and some barely check their messages.
Keeping it easy for Nan
Accessibility, timing and a comfy spot to sit all need planning, without making a fuss.

Questions
How do you plan a 90th birthday party?
Start with what the birthday person would enjoy, then set a date with plenty of notice for family travelling in. Choose an accessible venue and keep the day relaxed.
What are good 90th birthday party ideas?
A long lunch, an afternoon tea, a family picnic or a gathering at home. Add a photo display, a slideshow or a book of messages from the family.
How long should a 90th birthday party be?
Two to three hours is usually plenty, with time for food, speeches and photos. Plan it around when the birthday person has the most energy.
How do you include family who can’t make it?
Ask them to send a message or video for the slideshow, or set up a video call for the speeches. They can also see the photos in the Past Plyn afterwards.
