Halloween has been celebrated as a grand event for many years in fact, for centuries. The conventional creepy, gore, and blood route Halloween parties are quite cliché and old-fashion now. However, trends have evolved. In the modern era, Halloween is all about modern glam parties. Unlike conventional parties, there’s room for endless creativity in modern Halloween parties.
Listed below are some out-of-the-box tips to make your Halloween party memorable.
Theme
First things first- You need to choose a specific theme for the Halloween night party that you are hosting. It depends on you and your circle, whether you want it to be light-hearted or intensely frightening. You can finalize the food menu and decor only after defining a theme.
Design Creative Invitations
Design out-of-the-box invitation cards having innovative Halloween background, that depicts the intensity of the event, i.e. it’s going to be light or super spooky. You can send these invites digitally or by post. The invitation cards will also help you to convey Halloween’s theme along with the costume details.
Venue
The impact and feel of the Halloween party majorly depend upon the venue. If you are hosting it on your house lawn, installing a marquee to giving it the shape of a cave will be the coolest idea. The venue must offer adaptation for placement of different accessories and lights to establish a profound Halloween theme
Bang on Decoration
Halloween is not confined to pumpkins only. Think of unique decor ideas to enhance the theme and add a wow factor to your Halloween party. The cooler your decoration will be, the more your guests would be tempted to click pictures and enjoy it. Don’t restrict decoration to the entrance and hall only. Instead, do a detailed decoration, like witch glass lights on each table, the giveaway package bearing skull tags, red paint patches on, or banners designed over Halloween theme.
Halloween-Themed Menu
The only time of the year when unappetizing food seems exciting and fun is Halloween. There are endless choices for an innovative Halloween food menu. The fondant ghost-designed cupcakes would be very tempting, the same goes out for cookies. Besides, you could add blood-red beverages, pumpkin-flavored drinks, and cake to the menu. Arrange a bar counter and self-serving catering for the guests so they could enjoy the food of their choice.
Music
Music is the life of every event. Syncing it with Halloween vibes is important but you wouldn’t want your guests to get exhausted and terrified. You need to strike the right balance; start with some classic light-hearted Halloween music to make the mood, then switch to some intensely loud and horrifying music at regular intervals.
Performances
Surprise Halloween performances by scripted characters and actors are the most thrilling part. Direct the actors to pop out and spook the guests when they aren’t expecting it. Make sure that your guests receive their fair share of cold chills down the spines before leaving your party.
Caution: Avoid any thrilling act with heart patients and sensitive people.
There are plenty of ideas when it comes to making a Halloween party special. You just need to be super creative!
