How to organize a masquerade ball

Organizing a perfect party from start to finish is not an easy task. Knowing this, we brought you ten tips that will help you behind the scenes of your event.

  1. Guests: First of all, make a list of all the people you would like to come to your party. Don't forget to also include partners and children, in case you want to invite them as well.
  2. Location: The party space will depend on how many guests you want to invite. If it is a small amount, you can have it in a space in your house, but if you have many guests, it is worth renting a space.
  3. Invitation: make the theme of the party very clear so that everyone knows what to wear, whether it will be a more formal or informal event. An interesting suggestion is to send a "Save The Date" for people to reserve the date of your party before sending the official invitation to your masquerade ball!
  4. Menu: You can also choose a more refined menu as the theme of the party, with cheeses, sausages and snacks.
  5. Drinks: For the adult audience, provide drinks, wine, beer, or other alcoholic beverages; and, for the children's audience and for those who prefer not to drink alcohol, water, soft drinks, or juices.
  6. Decoration: Feathers, candles, masks, and flowers cannot be left out! Since there is no set color, choose the palette for your party yourself. Tip: gold and black are a beautiful combination!
  7. Masks: it is extremely important that there is a corner in the party with several masks, because there is always someone who forgets or doesn't come with his or her own. You can buy ready-made masks or customize them!
  8. Photos: If you are on a budget, it is worth asking someone to take some pictures even with a cell phone - the important thing is to register! And consider creating a hashtag to make it easier to locate all the pictures of your event!
  9. Music: A dance without music is not a dance! You can hire a band or a DJ for your party. If you want something more refined, you can hire a string quartet! The choice of music will depend on the taste of the birthday boy or girl!
  10. Souvenirs: Just like the photos, the treats are a way of eternalizing this moment and also thanking the presence of each guest on such a special day. You can create your own souvenirs for the masquerade ball or order personalized gifts!

The decoration and everything else about the masked ball will depend on the budget and taste of each person, but a simple ball can also be amazing! Check out some pictures of parties that celebrated with this theme.
