Who could resist this RSVP “we’re DYING to hear from you”?!★ Pick a theme. Go Gothic. Draw inspiration from Twilight Movies and encourage guests to be dark and beautiful and paint everything in flat black.
★ What about a literary theme – do as Nearless Headless Nick does in Harry Potter and host a ‘deathday’ party complete with black drapes, lots of candles, and fake chandeliers accompanied by servings of chocolate frogs and butterbeer.
★ A Halloween party doesn’t have to be a traditional costume party. Add some glamour to your party by hosting a Masquerade Ball; think 50 shades of grey.
★ Every party needs music. Your playlist of Halloween-themed music can be as traditional as “Thriller” or “Monster Mash” or be based on soundtracks like “Phantom of the Opera”. Have some sound effects up your sleeve; a well-placed scream can make the night.
★ Pumpkins are a Halloween essential however they don’t have to be carved or plain orange. Miniature ghost pumpkins can become downright glamorous with a touch of gold spray paint.
★ Lighting, such as candles, is an easy and effective away to transform any space and create a dramatic atmosphere.
★ Get creative with your colour scheme. Who says everything must be black, orange, green and purple? Try gold, silver and white for Halloween.
★ Book some entertainment that goes bump in the night. What about hiring a psychic medium, tarot-card reader or palm reader for your guests, and conduct a séance before the evening’s over? If you’ve hired a large venue for your Halloween party you need something to fill the space so what about an aerial spider acrobat to thrill your guests?
★ Get creative with your food and beverage. Poison black candy apples and vampire blood cocktails will add a touch of drama to your evening.[/fusion_text][fusion_builder_row_inner][fusion_builder_column_inner type=”1_4″ layout=”1_4″ spacing=”” center_content=”no” hover_type=”none” link=”” min_height=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_position=”left top” background_repeat=”no-repeat” border_size=”0″ border_color=”” border_style=”solid” padding_top=”” padding_right=”” padding_bottom=”” padding_left=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_offset=”” last=”no” border_position=”all”][fusion_imageframe image_id=”6001″ style_type=”none” hover_type=”none” align=”none” lightbox=”no” alt=”10-great-ideas-for-a-Halloween-party” linktarget=”_self” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″]https://www.evolve-events.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/10-great-ideas-for-a-Halloween-party-4.png[/fusion_imageframe][/fusion_builder_column_inner][fusion_builder_column_inner type=”1_4″ layout=”1_4″ spacing=”” center_content=”no” hover_type=”none” link=”” min_height=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_position=”left top” background_repeat=”no-repeat” border_size=”0″ border_color=”” border_style=”solid” padding_top=”” padding_right=”” padding_bottom=”” padding_left=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_offset=”” last=”no” border_position=”all”][fusion_imageframe image_id=”6000″ style_type=”none” hover_type=”none” align=”none” lightbox=”no” alt=”10-great-ideas-for-a-Halloween-party” linktarget=”_self” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″]https://www.evolve-events.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/10-great-ideas-for-a-Halloween-party-3.png[/fusion_imageframe][/fusion_builder_column_inner][fusion_builder_column_inner type=”1_4″ layout=”1_4″ spacing=”” center_content=”no” hover_type=”none” link=”” min_height=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_position=”left top” background_repeat=”no-repeat” border_size=”0″ border_color=”” border_style=”solid” padding_top=”” padding_right=”” padding_bottom=”” padding_left=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_offset=”” last=”no” border_position=”all”][fusion_imageframe image_id=”6006″ style_type=”none” hover_type=”none” align=”none” lightbox=”no” alt=”10-great-ideas-for-a-Halloween-party” linktarget=”_self” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″]https://www.evolve-events.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/10-great-ideas-for-a-Halloween-party-9.png[/fusion_imageframe][/fusion_builder_column_inner][fusion_builder_column_inner type=”1_4″ layout=”1_4″ spacing=”” center_content=”no” hover_type=”none” link=”” min_height=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_position=”left top” background_repeat=”no-repeat” border_size=”0″ border_color=”” border_style=”solid” padding_top=”” padding_right=”” padding_bottom=”” padding_left=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_offset=”” last=”no” border_position=”all”][fusion_imageframe image_id=”6009″ style_type=”none” hover_type=”none” align=”none” lightbox=”no” alt=”10-great-ideas-for-a-Halloween-party” linktarget=”_self” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″]https://www.evolve-events.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/10-great-ideas-for-a-Halloween-party-12.png[/fusion_imageframe][/fusion_builder_column_inner][/fusion_builder_row_inner][fusion_text columns=”” column_min_width=”” column_spacing=”” rule_style=”default” rule_size=”” rule_color=”” class=”” id=””]
