Activities that Add to the Fun Pt. 2

From Gather As You Go

What makes your event more special than others? I think it is the creativity that you plan into your party. I try to plan a couple of surprises for my guests. What can they be?

  • Pass miniatures of three different frozen drinks—lively colors and slushy good!
  • Have a scavenger hunt in the neighborhood or rent a limo stocked with champagne for each team and make it a city-wide photo shoot.
  • Ask servers to cook bananas Foster at tableside for big events.
  • Organize a surprise progressive dinner: invite guests and have them walk to a neighbor’s house for dessert.
  • Make your own ice cream sundae bar.
  • Conduct an “official” wine tasting with an expert to help out.
  • Have everyone bring a toy and wrap the toys for a charity.
  • Have guests bring a favorite book to exchange.
  • Put three mini desserts on a plate, each one more enticing than the other.
  • Do a cookie exchange.
  • Have a gourmet potluck dinner.
  • Invite guests to bring a friend to share in the fun
  • Dress casual and have a trolley show up to take everyone to the beach or park or other fun location.

Be wacky, whimsical, wild. People love to have fun!
