Hi. Lynn Louise Says Gold, white and purple are the colors. now start draping sheets over any seating, hang sheets on the walls and lay sheets on the floor. If you love cushions and pillows, create a lush corner and scatter these around to create an inviting (and comfortable) area for people to sit.
The next thing is to fill the area with greenery, hang fake ivy vine, some grapes on the tables and some potted plants. Put some golden items like candles, jugs and glasses and a fancy punch bowl around the place. If you happen to have pillars, columns, urns or statues, these are all extra props that would be a perfect match.
The lighting is also important when setting the atmosphere. Lay out and around the space, some white and gold candles or oil lamps. To give the area a real ''magical'' feel, hang some strings lights indoors and outdoors on trees and through the garden. You can check online party suppliers or your local home decor store if you want to incorporate more ostentatious Roman and Greek Architecture.
Besides "New York, New York," for music at your Toga party you can use Broadway Show tunes mixed with your modern pop favs.
The most important thing about a Toga themed party is the toga outfit itself, so no one should have any issues knowing what to wear to a Toga party.
Please ask your guests to dress up and make sure that everyone knows the importance of wearing togas. If you have a guest that is ashamed of dressing up, help them out. 20 minutes prior to the party should be enough time to make them a toga outfit out of a white bed sheet. Togas are super easy and affordable.
If you want something more sophisticated, then it's possible to buy a piece of fabric and tailor your own toga costume, otherwise a simple white bed sheet will do. To complement the outfit, you can wear sandals, gold items, a rope belt and a headpiece made of leaves or other greenery.
You can also encourage your guests to make elegant Greek god or goddess costumes and have a ''Best dressed award.'' If you are extra crafty or have money in the budget, you can make or hire "thrones'' which the winners can sit in. Not only that, the thrones will make a great place to take photos.
Hold your very own thoroughbred auction, whereby each Belmont horse in the racehorse is auctioned off to a participant. Keep in mind that the
odds-on betting favorite will fetch a higher price than the long shot. Add the auction sums to a pool and whoever bought the winning horse at auction wins the pool. NOW, watch the game and scream and yell!!! Next, play the game!!!
Toga party food and drinks all depends on how formal you want your event to be. Typical food at a Toga party is often appetizers and finger food. The other option is serving Greek food.
There is generally lots of fruits, especially grapes and pears. Platters of cheese and vegetables are often a success and nice big loaves of round bread, plenty of nuts, dates, figs and olives can also complement the menu nicely. To get a little more sophisticated, you can make pita bread sandwiches or if you want to go full Greek, you can offer delights like roasted lamb, baklava, a Greek pie or some classic Greek salad.
Drinks are easy...WINE! Wine is the traditional beverage, although you can serve a variety of drinks, including non-alcoholic options such as grape juice.
After the race and best costume contest, go ahead and begin the
FISHBOWL CHARADES GAME!!!
