There’s no better way to get your favorite people together and let lose than throwing a party. Throwing a party can be great fun. All your favorite people, music and the intent to just have a good time. Do you want to be known for throwing unforgettable parties and have people talking about your parties for years to come? If you’ve been looking for upgrades to your usual parties or you want to throw an amazing bash, look no further. Here are some awesome ideas to help take your party to a whole other level.
Photo Booth
In the modern age, everyone wants to grab the best shot. We all love a selfie. Having a photo booth at your party can be a real crowd-pleaser. You’ll very likely see scores of people waiting in line just to get a good snap. There are various options for this, you can hire a booth out or you can DIY it. Grab some props, good background and set up a camera, or device. A tablet or even a laptop can be used to take memorable pictures. Think creatively here, if your party has a specific theme or you want to bring in certain elements to the party, use this booth to do that. You can even have customisable props that people could use in their pictures, like chalkboards or signs.
Theme
A good theme can tie your party together and amps up the fun for everyone. Having everyone dress up following a theme can be a lot of fun. Don’t make it anything super difficult to find outfits for and give everyone ample notice so they can plan accordingly. Having your decor and food tie in with the theme adds that layer of pizzazz.
Karaoke
If you throw parties often or you want to upgrade your next bash, a karaoke mic is a great way to do this. Whether you have the chords for it or not, everyone loves to scream their lungs out to their favorite tunes. You can opt for a karaoke system or a mic, it depends on your set-up and preference. You can hire a karaoke band, where you can find yourself being the lead of a band, rocking out in front of your partying crowd. A good karaoke session has the potential to turn any event into an amazing time.
Dance-Off
Even if you have two left feet, a dance-off will boost your party like crazy. Gather two separate teams, someone to MC, and you have yourself a legendary dance battle. Dance offs can also be a good way to get everyone involved in the dancing if they’re feeling a little shy or don’t usually make an appearance on the dance floor. Dance-offs get everyone involved and can often end up being the highlight of the night.
Casino Night
Not technically a theme which is why it has been given its own separate category. Turn your home into a Vegas spot, and have a blast with your friends whilst playing some good games or blackjack or roulette. If you and your friends enjoy casino games or just want to have the experience this is a great way to amp up a party, adding flair and style. You could do this for a birthday, a bachelor/bachelorette, and even to celebrate a holiday.
Scavenger Hunt
This is an amazing idea if we do say so ourselves. You can plan a scavenger hunt around your home and widen it out to include your neighborhood. Imagine you and your friends running around the streets at night looking for clues and trying to figure out riddles. Yeah, even the image is entertaining. This might take some planning but you can often get some help and guidance online if you need to.
Virtual Parties
During the pandemic, many had to resort to virtual socializing as they were unable to see their loved ones in real life. As we are still in a position where rules are still shifting and changing, we may still be missing out on the real-life socialization aspect. To keep your sanity, plan a fun trivia, quiz or drinks night virtually. Technology has quickly evolved to match up to what we have been experiencing and there are lots of games and activities that can be played by several players online.
If you are stressing over party planning and want to ensure your guests have the best time possible, use these ideas to give some inspiration. You can tweak or change anything you want, after all, it’s your party.
