For a summer party to be successful, everything must be prepared properly. This article is just about that: what to eat and drink, who to call and what to listen to.

American Movie Party

That means a lot of guests, a lot of booze and a lot of noise. The more of this, the steeper. The theme of the party can not come up with, so as not to bother with costumes, food and decoration. Just call friends and friends of friends and have fun.

How much space do you need

50 m² - so that it is crowded and everyone pours beer on each other.

What to eat and drink

Pizza, burgers, chips, popcorn and alcohol. Yes, it's terribly harmful, but you only live once, so don't be boring. Stock up on alcohol, cola, water and mineral water for the morning. Prepare plenty of ice to keep your drinks cold.

How to arrange everything

Buy red cups and garlands. Red cups are the symbol of any American party, and under the garlands everything will be like in a movie. It is better to use disposable dishes, and do not lay a tablecloth on tables with snacks. Remove vases and in general everything that can break, stock up trash bags and napkins.

What to listen

To create an atmosphere of general frenzy, turn on something poppy, but not tasteless. No weird music and hard rock - just music that makes you want to dance to.

The best party music is loud, so make sure you have speakers. For example, ION Audio has a 100W ION Block Rocker Sport wireless audio system. The speaker produces a cool sound, it has special cup holders for drinks, it is not afraid of rain or spilled beer, and it works autonomously for 75 hours. Lifehacker has already written about this audio system, you can read the full review.

If you have a music lover friend, call him as a DJ. Let him play vinyl records, it will add style. For a noisy party, the ION PRO 100BT turntable is suitable. It has built-in speakers and the ability to connect to external speakers via Bluetooth.

How to have fun

Play beerpong and fizz buzz, table dancing and a wet t-shirt contest.

"Birpong" is a game of American students. Guests are divided into two teams, each has 10 glasses of beer. Players take turns throwing a ping-pong ball into the opponent's glasses, trying to hit. If the ball is hit, the player of the other team drinks the contents and removes the glass. The team with the most hits wins.

"Fizz-buzz" - funny game for attentiveness. Players take turns counting from 1 to 100, replacing numbers that are divisible by three with "fuzz" and those that are divisible by five with "buzz". And if the number is divisible by both three and five, then they say "fuzz-buzz." The one who makes a mistake completes the task or drinks the penalty.

As for the wet t-shirt contest, don't say you have to explain how to run it.

Karaoke party

Party for close friends. Get together in a good company and bawl songs into the microphone. All guests must be well acquainted with each other or very drunk, otherwise it will be awkward to sing.

How much space do you need

30 m² - to be sincere.

What to eat and drink

If you are having a karaoke party in your country house, combine the party with grilled kebabs or grilled meat. For a snack, buy watermelon, grapes and other berries - it's tasty and not harmful. If you don't want to spend time cooking, ask your friends to bring prepared meals from home.

How to arrange everything

Consider where the stage, dance floor and seats for spectators will be. The stage can be decorated with balloons and paper garlands. On the street you can hang hammocks and makeshift swings between the trees.

What to listen

Each other. Think of a playlist and before the party starts, send the list of songs to friends so that they can choose songs in advance and get into character. We have collected for you playlist of the most famous karaoke songs.

To make karaoke successful, you will need a microphone, powerful speakers and, of course, light music. ION Audio has a Party Rocker Express compact audio system for home discos. This is a full-fledged karaoke center with two microphone inputs, a disco ball and a light panel that creates an atmosphere like in a club. Music can be turned on via the Aux cable or via Bluetooth from a smartphone: just open YouTube on your phone, search for desired entry and sing. And if you want a more powerful sound, choose the Party Rocker Max audio system.

How to have fun

Play "Repeat the melody", "Guess the melody" and "Musical hat".

“Repeat the melody” - the players are divided into teams of three people and the leader. The host chooses the songs, and the teams must play them. You can complicate the task and include frames from clips so that the participants repeat not only the melody, but also the movements of the artists.

"Guess the tune" - in the 1990s we all watched it. Participants are divided into two teams and a leader. The host turns on the melody, and the players must guess what the song is as quickly as possible. You can’t shout the correct answer, you have to say “Stop!” and then answer. The team that guessed the most tunes wins.

In the "Musical Hat" you do not need to guess anything. Participants stand in a circle, one of them puts a hat on his head, takes it off to the music and passes it to his neighbor, and so on in a circle. When the host stops the music, the hat player is out of the game. Whoever is left wins. Instead of a hat, you can use huge shorts or a shirt.

retro party

We are not talking about a boring meeting with one glass of cocktail per evening and languid looks. A real retro party is a crazy party in the style of the 50s and 60s, when people knew how to have fun. Rock and roll, carelessness and optimism - you forget about the problems and dance until your legs give out or the lights go out.

How much space do you need

100 m² - so that there is a place to dance the twist.

What to eat and drink

Light snacks, homemade lemonade and wine. Do not cook anything hearty, otherwise it will be difficult to dance. Cut fruit, cheese, make canapés and order mini cakes, cake pops and berry muffins for the sweet table.

How to arrange everything

Retro posters, black and white photos, vintage items. If grandmother's suitcases, a vintage armchair or a floor lamp are lying around in the attic, get it. Decorate your walls with posters, photos and garlands from AliExpress. Arrange a photo zone and remove everything unnecessary from the dance floor. Put a vinyl player in the most visible place.

Warn your friends in advance that you are preparing a retro party: you need to dress accordingly. Let the girls come in bright dresses with puffy petticoats, the guys in tight trousers, colored jackets and bouffant, like Elvis Presley.

What to listen

Retro party is music on vinyl. Play Elvis Presley, Bill Haley, Chuck Berry, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones. At ION Audio you can find turntables with different prices and features. For example, the ION MAX LP player in a wooden case. It reproduces clear sound without noise, it can be connected to speakers or a laptop and digitize recordings.

A more serious option is the ION PRO 80 professional vinyl player. From the characteristics: automatic control pickup, silent belt drive system, sapphire-coated ceramic stylus and RCA output for connecting to a stereo system.

ION Audio turntables in retro design will really brighten up your party: MUSTANG LP , MOTION and TRIO LP . They have built-in speakers, but if your company does not have enough noise, then you can connect external ones.

How to have fun

1950s dance is rock and roll, boogie woogie and twist. The first two are paired, the twist can be danced alone. It's simple: make a movement with one foot, as if crushing a cigarette butt, and simply wave your hands in different directions.

• only pleasant and necessary people can be invited;
• the whole evening proceeds according to your own scenario;
• you are the master of the situation, it is possible to regulate and control the entire course of the event.

But there are no pluses without a minus, which must be taken into account even at the stage of making a decision on holding a party.

• to make guests feel comfortable, you may have to sacrifice the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe entire apartment;
• cooking snacks is a very troublesome and responsible business;
• cleaning up after the fun and washing a huge amount of dishes will take a lot of time and effort;
• a cool party without loud music is impossible, but the result may be trouble with the neighbors;
• the lion's share of organizational concerns falls on the hostess, and the celebration itself will have to be constantly kept under control so that it does not turn out to be just a drunken feast.

All weighed and determined decisively? Then proceed to organizational matters. Perhaps you will become a pioneer if none of your friends have arranged such gatherings before you. Decide how you envision future fun. Maybe it will be a classic pastime of a noisy company or a stylized masquerade ball with a specific theme and appropriate costumes?

Theme parties

You can determine the theme of the upcoming party yourself or consult with the guests so that all the invitees feel comfortable. Be sure to consider their age. And there are many options. If there is no official reason, dream up: the first snow or another rain, read a new book that suggested the idea of ​​a costume party, or just good mood conducive to noisy fun. It doesn't matter, the main thing is to gather friends in an informal setting. Share your suggestions with them and listen to their ideas.

As a basis, you can take the most popular types of costume parties now, and the game of your imagination will tell you the further course of events.

1. Homemade masquerade ball in anime style. The number of anime fans is growing rapidly, so adults and children will like this option. The thematic competition will also be exciting. The host shows one of the episodes of the film, and the participants at this time turn away. Whoever guesses first gets a prize.
2. Party in the style of nostalgia for the past. Ideal for people who have known each other for more than one year. Warn guests to bring memorabilia with them, which will not only be a topic for discussion and memories, but also an occasion for fun. It will not be difficult to pick up the music that sounded at the discos then, and the preserved wardrobe items will serve as thematic costumes. Color will add bright accessories of past years. The Monopoly game will be part of the entertainment program.
3. An impromptu beauty contest will appeal to both the participating girls and the judging panel of men. It is desirable that the program of the event correspond to the real show, just discuss the defile in swimsuits in advance. Diversify the holiday with musical and humorous numbers. This theme party will be remembered for a long time.

In addition, the style of one of the eras carried over to the party is a great option for home fun.

Thematic festivities promise a sense of celebration and positive mood from the first moment.

The design of the apartment should also correspond to the chosen theme: pick up or make attributes to decorate the walls, furniture, table.

an integral part and prerequisite such a holiday are costumes that match the theme. When this is not possible, it is not necessary to run around in search of a complete set of clothes. Some symbolism or a few accessories related to the theme are enough. One of the proposed competitions may be called "The most attractive costume."

Table setting

Do not panic, even when you expect a large company - show all your imagination. It is not at all necessary to make immense purchases and cut mountains of salads. A fun party will not suffer if, as an option, you take a buffet table as a basis. Various canapes, sandwiches, cold cuts, light salads will become an alternative to hot appetizers. Fruits are perfect for champagne and wine. For dessert, buy an a la carte option, such as small cakes. If this is not a target party to celebrate a birthday or other event, but a gathering of friends for a fun time, then you can safely distribute responsibilities and prepare snacks.

When choosing alcohol, consider the preferences of all guests. Diversity is indispensable here. Along with strong drinks, various light cocktails should also be present. If the party is organized in a themed style, try to work in this direction as well. For example, for a Mexican carnival, prepare tequila, and a Japanese evening implies the presence of sake and, by the way, sushi is a must. Also, the Italian theme cannot do without pizza, which is better to order with home delivery.

In table setting, try to deviate from the classic rules. Bright disposable plates that can be thrown away after completion will replace ordinary dishes, and pick up beautiful napkins on the topic. The youth company will surely appreciate your ingenuity. But this only applies to plates. Champagne and other alcoholic drinks will retain their taste in glass goblets. A similar situation with forks and knives, give preference to the classics.

Consider lighting for a party at home. In the dance area, the atmosphere should be close to the club style. If possible, arrange a disco light with highlights and colored lights. Or leave a minimum of lamps or sconces to create coziness and warm communication. Bright light will be needed in that part of the room where intellectual entertainment is expected, interesting competition or noisy games.

Entertainment Options

The dance evening is only part of the event. Think of other incendiary entertainment to captivate everyone present. Funny Games, beloved by all karaoke will help maintain a festive atmosphere. And small prizes for the winner will be a nice addition. The program should bring variety, then friends will mark the evening spent at your house as one of the best.

1. Competition-entertainment "question-answer". Take two vessels, put leaflets with questions in one, and arbitrary answers in the other. One participant draws a question, the second answers.
2. The classic version of “Guess the Melody” in a noisy company will acquire a new meaning and at the same time reveal the musical abilities of those present. The analogue will be "Guess the soundtrack".
3. Any party where the "forfeits" are not forgotten, consider it a success.

A more comprehensive list of party entertainment ideas can be found online. Only you should prepare in advance everything necessary for holding contests or games. Make sure that the music is not deafening and at the same time not interrupted.

And do not forget to capture the events of the holiday on a camera or video. Each of the guests will want to see themselves in an unusual way years later. Everyone should remember a great party.

Holding such an event at home imposes a huge responsibility on the owners. The key to a festive atmosphere is their good mood and ability to plan everything.

When you start organizing a cool party at home, remember that the main thing is easy communication and a cheerful mood for all those invited. So arrange a soul feast for yourself and your friends.

To do this, you will need: a foam concentrate and a device for blowing it, as well as a voluminous canister for water. It is best not to strain yourself and invite the foam gun installation experts, that is, order a service from an entertainment agency. Although there are other ways - to rent a gun and figure it out on your own, what's what, or even buy a unit.

When you please your guests, hurry to tell them that dry foam is safe and does not leave stains on clothes - it is not necessary to undress. Although ... you can beat everything quite the opposite!

The foam party is all about fun, so take care of dancing and entertainment.

Parties are great any time of the year, so a well-thought-out celebration or get-together can be organized in any weather, and with our tips, you will succeed!
