What is a pax?
The best place for a party of this kind is at home in your backyard. Invite grandma and grandpa and maybe a particularly close aunt and uncle, if they also have little kids. These are the only people that will genuinely be excited about the event. Don't bother inviting friends or colleagues, especially childless ones. They won't get it.
But why is it wrong if it's a party for the parents and the grandparents? What is wrong with pictures and memories? Genuine questions. I think it's nice for extended family to have gatherings. Why isn't it okay for birthdays, anniversaries, or weddings to create a reason for the family to gather? I've seen a bunch of threads on this forum that seem to be very anti-occasion. I really don't understand. In my family and friend group we treat birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, graduations, etc, the same way we treat holidays. I think it's wonderful and part of why we're all so close.Really, one year old party is for parents/grands/godparents. Only good for pictures and memories, child won't remember.

I don't think one person has said it's not worthy of celebrating. The question the OP asked is WHERE to have it, as if the PLACE matters. For example, if it was for a 10 year old into sports, it might be nice to have it at a semi-professional (pick your sport) game. Or lazer tag, breakout rooms, trampoline park, etc.But why is it wrong if it's a party for the parents and the grandparents? What is wrong with pictures and memories? Genuine questions.

What is a pax?Thanks everyone for the responses so far!
Check into some local pizza places and see if they have "party rooms." They usually don't cost anything but the cost of the pizza you buy.Thanks everyone for the responses so far!
We don’t live in Orlando. Staying at The Yacht Club. I would love to do it there but I don’t think it’s possible, right? I don’t think they’ll let me have that many visitors.
Aftendees are all family. Aunts, uncles and cousins. No grandparents. I’m thinking it’s probably best to keep it indoors unless there’s an outdoor spot with some breeziness.

Yes, just go out for lunch or dinner.Check into some local pizza places and see if they have "party rooms." They usually don't cost anything but the cost of the pizza you buy.
I think it is people.
When I worked at the airport, this is the abbreviation used for passengers, but it doesn’t fit, or at least I hope not.
Ahhh, I see. Thank you both.Hospitality jargon for headcount.
Why not reach out to them and ask? The worst they can say is "no".Thanks everyone for the responses so far!
