Wrapperpalooza-by WrapunzelWraps.Com: Affordable Party Ideas
I was thinking of Fun Party ideas that are not only for kids but great for adults too. Searching the net I came across ideas that are adult oriented and could also be altered for young adults and kids too. I believe every party should have a theme, this gets your guests excited and they know they won't be sitting in the corner bored...NEVER! I hope you save it for your future party plans; this is a long list...Enjoy Mystery Event: This is my favorite and can cost as little or as much as you and your group want to spend. Pick a host and hostess and a budget per person or couple. You then send out an invitation to join the hosts at a secret location. *With GPS now it’s hard to be secretive, I suggest have them follow you. In your invite tell them how to dress, type of shoes and how long the night will last (casual, comfortable shoes, 2hrs and $25 ea.) Your guests now know they are going someplace fun but where? That's up to the host; they can end up at Laser Tag, a Dance studio, Mystery theater night, a play, Concert in the park etc.The list is endless to the events you can set up. This depends on your friends and of course how adventurous they are and your money budget. Don't forget to bring the camera and take pics. Your next party can be sharing the nights event with all the photos that were taken. Enjoy Kid Scavenger Hunt-Make sure the items they are searching for can be easily found. (Brush, penny, toothbrush, gum wrapper, etc) If you do it at night make sure they all have flash lights and are well supervised. Keep the kids in a central area so you can keep track of them. You can have teams of 2 or more depending on how many kids you invite. Don't forget to give them a check list and bag so they can put all their collectibles in. Scavenger Hunt Drive and Do : This is a great Adult and Family game; bring your video or digital camera for proof. You break down into groups with a list of activities that must be accomplished, your proof is videotaped. Can be Silly like dancing in front of a Movie theater or Riding a Skateboard to helpful like carrying some ones groceries? (Remember everyone in the group must participate) Make a list and have the groups leave in different directions so they don't bump into one another. Give them a time frame and when they come back have food and drinks, let the laughs begin!! Toga Party: Yes I said it a Toga party. Have everyone dress up in a toga. Togas can easily be made from sheets or reminisce found in a fabric or craft store. Be really creative and make a crown made of leaves and branches. You can never go wrong with a toga party and if rains have it indoors and pop the movie in "Animal House" and really Toga Toga! Hollywood/ Broadway Party: Roll out the red carpet! Use inexpensive red felt and roll it out so your guests will have their "Red Carpet" walk of fame! Have your guests dress up as their favorite Actor or Actress. Invitation’s can be designed to look like Playbills or Movie tickets. Tables can be decorated with rich fabrics and centerpieces can be made out of poster board (Make Stars with your guest’s names). Use old movie posters as decorations. The vote is in and the winner goes to-handout the awards for best dressed and look alike. Serve popcorn and have a candy station filled with assorted movie style candies. (Great for Kids) Use your digital camera and take pictures of your guests as they arrive and then give it to them when they leave. This party can also be turned into an elegant sit down dinner you can even make it a black tie event. Serve champagne or sparkling cider. Perfect for Oscar night!! Party stores have great decorations for all events. Nuts and Bolts Party:
