There's lots of different ways to throw a party and even more activities, entertainers and performers to choose from. On this blog today I will, from my experience, tell you what's hot and what's not.
Lets start with the obvious not so hot. Clowns and magicians, unless you're 6 years old, Belly dancers, Drum circles, and one man bands don't make my hot list this year. Quarters, poker, charades and pool round out the not so hot activities. While these can be fun for very small groups but they don't really accommodate the masses.
On to the fire!
If you have any of these activities or performers at your event your are sure to have a good time.
Photo booths are becoming the latest fad, you get a copy of all the pictures taken, and the guest get a keep sake all while having lots of fun dressing up and posing for the camera. Some other great ideas for performers are D.J.s of course.... along with bands and fire breathers! As far as activities go there are some classics that will always go hand in hand with drinking and gatherings. Beer Pong and corn-hole are sure to have a line of participants. There are more "Hots" and "Nots" out there, but let me hear from you and your experiences.
I'd also like to note an exception - These group dance games on video console are 50/50 with me I've seen them be a hit and a one hit wonder. If you are in a living room with the dining light on and a 40" flat screen and T.V. speakers i'd have to say this is a bust. Now picture the same game outside or in a venue with an 80 " screen and sound so loud you will think you're in the video. Add professional lights, lasers, fog and 10, 20 or even hundreds of your friends dancing in sync! That would be "Hot" right? Well that's how Party Pro DJ's would play those games!
