Welcome!!
This was my second "annual" house party and I've got 3-4 ideas on improving it for next year.
#1 Have a photographer assigned. (it's rough to host and try to take photos) Here are some Pics. I'll start with some of the décor.
We played 2 games. Wink Murderer was first. I was absolutely flabberghasted at how dramatic these "newbies" to the game were. AND I was frustrated that I couldn't act fast enough to capture the events. Here are two poor souls.
and
.
(No one caught the Wink Killer, but there's always next year). A trophy was given to the best acted out death. "Stung by 100's of Bees".
Next we switched to Werewolf. This we did out on the patio with a rimstove firepit. It was so pleasant that we really didn't need it. We had 20 players.
.
In addition to these activities, I'd asked all to bring finger food and trophies were be awarded for Best Savory and Best Sweet.
Two things to change next year (actually #2 and #3) Have a specific table for those wanting their foods juried and figure out a better way of getting all the ballots completed.
Lastly there were 3 trophies for costumes and although no one was drunk, big head shake on their choices. But hey, their choices not mine.
The trophies (untouched) came from DT and were sprayed and "enhanced" by me.
Can't wait til next year.
