Have you ever got dressed up for a party, and then noticed that the sky was opening up, pouring down the rain; and suddenly felt reluctant to leave home? It doesn’t matter if you’ve just spent hours dressing up, or the venue of the party is in just a short distance, or even that you’ll be driving or riding a vehicle the whole way there. There’s just something about that gloomy weather that really puts most people off the partying mood.
If you want to host a party, and it’s the rainy weather, chances are that your party guests too might feel the same. Here are our three top tips on hosting a party during the rainy season; and making sure it’s a success.
Make the venue exciting
In a weather like this, the venue makes a huge difference. A large crowd of guests crammed into a tiny apartment while it’s pelting outside doesn’t sound all that fun. Similarly, having to travel hours through the rain and the slush not only sounds tedious, but can also prove to be dangerous if your guests are not careful. Since we don’t want either of that, select your corporate functions in Melbourne with care. It just has to be something that is exciting and convenient not only for your guests, but for you as well. If you live in Australia, try the party venues Melbourne based.
Make “rain” the theme
No chance that you’d be able to avoid the rain and its gloom? No problem! Turn it into your theme instead. From your decorations to your food, you can do a lot with rain as the theme. With a little effort and creativity, you can make it rain indoors (hopefully in a less wet manner) as well as outdoors. It’s a theme that will work in most venues, even in hired/rented best 21st venues in Melbourne. Your guests will get a kick out of it for sure!
Add to the theme; add to the fun
Any theme gets fun when the hosts and the guests have to dress up for it. Mention your theme in the invitation, and ask them to dress for it. From raincoats and high boots to even upturned umbrellas, your guests will be able to go all out with their creativity. It’s also a good idea to have a few umbrella stands and wet coat hangers ready and at hand; just in case your guests decide to use their “props” as a shield against the rain. And to add to the fun, you can even do your party favors (if you plan on handing them out) related to the rain…!
