Answer 3

why not have a build your own dinner party?

set up a pizza bar, including sauce, grated chease, peperoni, veggies. and give everyone personal sized dough (which can be quite cheap when bought with a kit) let everyone go wild and thier own things, its a ton of fun, and it allways turns out yummy.

you could do the same things but make tacos, which are also delicious.

if its your birthday you could have everyone decorate cupcakes. if not, you could set up a sundae bar, which are allways a blast, or bake cookies.

once your pizzas are ready head to the basement chill and watch some movies. im sure this would take away any awkward ness, seeing as everytime i do it all there is are laughs! =]

another thing you may want to consider is chocolate fondu, allways fun, and keeps people talking. everyone has fun when theres food around!

Decorating Ideas:



Room Decorations

Balloons and streamers...the basic decorating stand-bys...are always an inexpensive and easy way to turn any room into a festive party. Attach streamers from center of ceiling to each corner of the room. Use two colors and twist streamers for effect. Hang a daisy bead curtain in a doorway. Have lots of flowers in room to set the scene!



Table Decorations

The easiest way to bring out any party theme is with the paper products for your table. Decorate with Tie Dye theme. Add plates or napkins in solid colors if desired. Tie Dye bandanas make great napkins and double as a party favor.

Party Food Ideas

Party Food Ideas!

A hippie theme party will need LOTS of cool drinks for thirsty dancers! (If this an adult party, ask guest to "Bring Your Own Drink" for alcohol to help with the expense.) Furnish soft drinks, tea and water.

Serve light snacks. For example: ham biscuits, cheese and crackers, veggies/fruit and dip, chips, Chex Mix, peanuts and a variety of cookies.

DON'T FORGET TO TAKE PLENTY OF PICTURES!

Have a GREAT Retro Theme Party
