It�s one thing to just throw a party. You just have to pick a date and invite your friends. But, this doesn�t ensure that the party will be fun for all people invited. It doesn�t matter how expensive the catering is, people need to be entertained as well. While some people don�t mind sipping their drink in a quiet corner immersed in a philosophical discussion, others might need more than a conversation to have fun. If you want to ensure everyone is equally entertained, you need to make strategic decisions.
Music can make or break your party. Especially if this is a big event many people will attend and even bring their plus ones, it�s your duty to make them dance. A DJ, who is well versed either in a specific genre or the popular genre is the main ingredient that will turn your party into a successful one. If you�re celebrating a company birthday or an annual company event, have a DJ mixing the greatest hits in the background and simply watch how a corporate party turns into a dancing crowd.
Once again, music is an important component of a big party. You can also have live music to give your guests the ultimate party experience. If this is a wedding, then you know how important live music is. If this is any other big event, choose a venue that can host a band. Make sure to get the one you either listened to before, hired or someone has recommended them. This will ensure you choose the right one and that your guests will get the entertainment they deserve.
People simply love cocktails. Especially if you�re throwing a party during one of the colder months, cocktails will remind people of summer. Pick a few cocktails you want to be served along with other drinks. Those who love cocktails will find their way to the bar, while those who�ve never tried them will try something for the first time.
Now, if you truly want to entertain your guests, have a fortune teller at your event. Even those who don�t believe in tarot or fortune reading will stop by the fortune teller�s table after the first drink. People are curious creatures and a tarot reader can feed their curiosity. If you want to make a great impression and offer something unique, find a fortune teller who does corporate or any other type of event.
A party without photos being taken is as boring as the one without any drinks. It�s like the party never happened if you don�t have at least one story on your feed and several posts. This is especially important at weddings because people got all dressed up so they want to have an amazing photograph to remember the event forever. You can stick to a regular wedding setup, or hire a wedding photo booth setup and give people a chance to have fun. This can be your way of saying thank you to everyone who attended your wedding. Head to the photo booth and have fun!
There will always be those people who are more interested in a specific type of fun, instead of dancing or mingling around the room. You should also provide a list of entertainment options for those quiet ones. Board games are the safest way to ensure everyone, literally, everyone at your party has fun. Choose the type of games that aren�t overly competitive, but are just a pure source of fun.
Now, this one is reserved for the youngest guests. If you�re throwing a big party where people will bring their kids, you need to think about kid entertainment as well. Face painting never loses interest, because it�s fun and creative and kids adore it. Just ask moms who they invite to their kid's birthdays, and you won�t make a wrong choice. Especially if this person is someone the kids know from other parties, they will hurl to the make-up artist to say hi and get their face painted.
If you want to be creative on one side and motivate people to mingle and meet other people, play a secret drink game. First, make sure everyone RSVPs to the event, so you�ll know who�s coming. Next, write a list of names and put it in a bowl. Upon arrival, everyone will take a name out of that bowl. Throughout the night they have to find this person and have a drink with them. If they do, they will earn their party favour. The proof can be a selfie they took while having their drink.
If you want to be creative, you just have to pick one or more ideas from our list. Make sure to pick the ones that fit your event perfectly
