Party Tips and Ideas for San Diego Yacht Rental Events
A traditional nautical motif is always a safe choice for a yacht party, but if you are planning a memorable party, you will want to step outside of the norm. What about some crimson on those white and blue stripes?
The murder mystery-themed party seems like a good idea. Friends who like the dramatic arts will really enjoy this. Maybe you are a big fan of another era of music. Do you feel like having a disco party? Your party is your chance to make it all you have ever wanted it to be.
Guest List, Menu, And Music
Yacht parties do not need much in the way of decorations. When you have a planner or event company like Champagne Yacht Events plan your party, they usually handle themed decor for you. With a few tiki torches and some palm fronds, the party is set. Those three items are, by far, the most memorable ones for most individuals, at least in my experience. In that case, let us tackle them separately.
Your Invites
You should give this some serious consideration. It may seem heartless to leave somebody off the guest list, but unfortunately, space is at a premium. Great-aunt Gertrude will not have as much fun as Jessica, a gorgeous sorority girl, at the toga party kegger. On the other hand, after her ninth Jagerbomb of the evening, Jessica will likely stand out like a sore thumb at the posh party. Your theme and your guest list correlate with one another.
It is crucial to maintain a 60%-to-40% gender ratio. Men have an innate ability to calculate the odds and will quickly bail if they see that they are not in their favor. You should always invite a few more women than men to keep it interesting.
Your Menu
It is always important to offer food when you serve alcohol. The kegger serves barbecue, while the soiree serves oysters. There should always be food available during a party, and the more options you provide, the better. You would not want your vegan pals to feel left out, so keep that in mind. Drinking is almost as important as eating. People are more likely to let loose and enjoy themselves if they can help themselves to free drinks at an open bar.
Bring some options with you. Again, diversity is your friend, but if you are down to just a few options, think about the overarching theme. Beer is more appropriate for a toga party, whereas martinis are the perfect drink for a red carpet event.
The Playlist
The music completes this mystical trinity. Having a high-end karaoke machine for your retro disco party may be the deciding factor. Always do thorough reading through reviews on DJs before employing them. Although most individuals do not give the music much thought, a string of bad tracks may ruin an otherwise enjoyable evening.
Make sure the DJ you choose is familiar with and can provide music appropriate to the theme. A good DJ can work without a setlist.
You should bring more than enough.
We have all been to the party when the champagne supply is just right for a round of toasts, but then runs dry. Not you, host. There are five standard champagne glasses in a 750 ml bottle. Other visitors will have a few glasses and some may have nothing at all, but it’s reasonable to anticipate that attendees will drink, on average, one glass of bubbly apiece.
Provide a Substitute
You should stock up on enough food and drinks, particularly water, to accommodate everyone’s dietary restrictions and preferences, and you should limit your alcohol intake and make sure to drink enough water. It just so happens that champagne is a beverage that goes particularly well with a number of the finger snacks and other finger foods that are common on yacht (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yacht) voyages.
The Last Word on Yacht Get-Togethers
If throwing a boat party seems too daunting, there is always the option of hiring a planner to take care of all the logistics. That depends on your financial situation and how far you are ready to go to have what may be a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Take plenty of photographs and film as much as you can.
