Scare up Some Fun with a Halloween Party to Remember

Summer is over… the kids are back in school… there is a crisp cool in the air… and yes, Halloween is creeping up! Halloween is one of the most fun holidays of the year and planning a Halloween party can be a thrill!  There are a lot of options for the theme of the Halloween party – any excuse for a party will do!  But first and most importantly, before choosing a theme or picking out a design for Halloween invitations, you must decide on the type of party you are throwing.

Below is a list of 3 types of Halloween Parties that will be useful in planning your event:

1. Halloween Bash or Halloween Spook-tacular

Halloween Bashes are a great way to celebrate this spooky night with family and friends of all ages!  Whether you are making ghoulish treats for the kids or mixing up Halloween cocktails for the adults, a Halloween Bash brings out the kid in everyone! There are so many options and fun ideas in making the party a success! First and foremost is sending out Halloween party invitations. Make sure that the design is spooky and haunting and entices the guests for an evening of fright!  You want to make sure that all of the important information is custom printed on the invitation as well as information regarding costumes, for example:
   
•   Costumes Required
•   Costumes Optional
•   Prize for Best Costume

Halloween decorations are very important in throwing the ultimate bash!  You will want to make your home a Halloween Spook-tacular! You may even want to turn your home into a Haunted House. Halloween music is important in creating the haunting atmosphere. You will also want to plan out any activities such as a costume contest, or shake things up with tricks and treats that will keep the little werewolves howling happily or make the grown-ups scream!

2. Halloween Birthday Party

Halloween birthday parties are a great way to celebrate a birthday!  By having a Halloween birthday party, you have the theme of the birthday party already laid out for you.  It makes planning the birthday much easier as you do not need to come up with ideas for the celebration.  Halloween birthday parties make the party fun and special with a spooky twist!

Halloween birthday parties can be thrown for young children.  There are many kid Halloween birthday invitations to choose from.  Less frightening designs of Halloween invitations are available with images of young trick-or-treaters, pumpkins, or friendly little ghosts and goblins.  You can choose to have activities such as pumpkin painting or bobbing for apples.  You can have fun treats that the kids will enjoy such as bug juice and worms in dirt (gummy worms buried in crushed up Oreos). This is always a big hit with the little ones!

Halloween birthday parties can also be thrown for adults only!!  For an adult party, you can go all the way with things that go BOO and creep and crawl through the night!  You can shake things up with Halloween “spirits” and gruesome foods.  It is a chance for grown-ups to have an alternate identity for the night!

3. Halloween Bridal and Wedding Showers

Believe it or not, Halloween has become a theme for bridal and wedding showers and even the actual wedding!  If you know a couple or a bride-to-be with a love for Halloween, you can spice things up on their special occasion and turn it into a Halloween theme.  There are Halloween invitations that can be used for bridal showers and wedding showers.  The possibilities are endless and you can be as creative as you want. There are even Halloween invitations available with designs of Halloween divas, Frankenstein couples, and witches and warlocks on brooms!
