Down the Rabbit Hole We Go: Planning Tips for a Wonderland Extravaganza
Theme parties are a fantastic way to spark imaginations and create lasting memories. An Alice in Wonderland party offers endless possibilities for creativity, from the décor to the treats. Here are a few tips to get you started:
- Invitations with a Twist: Set the tone with whimsical invitations. Think pocket watches, playing cards, or even a riddle hinting at the topsy-turvy world that awaits!
- Curious Decorations: Transform your space into Wonderland! Hang brightly colored streamers, drape doorways with checkered tablecloths, and scatter oversized playing cards and teacups around. Don’t forget a “Drink Me” potion station (filled with colorful fruit juices, of course!).
- Mad Hatter’s Tea Party Time: This is the centerpiece of any Alice in Wonderland party! Set up a low table with mismatched chairs, pile on mismatched teacups and saucers, and serve delicious treats like cupcakes decorated with clocks and playing cards.
- Curious Costumes: Encourage guests to dress up as their favorite Wonderland characters. Think Alice in her blue dress, the Mad Hatter with his mismatched attire, or the Cheshire Cat with his mischievous grin.
- Games Fit for Wonderland: Play classic party games with a Wonderland twist. Pin the tail on the Mock Turtle, organize a flamingo croquet tournament (use pool noodles for mallets!), or have a madcap teacup race.
