[custom_adv] If you plan on inviting people online (and who doesn’t do that these days?), then list your dress code on the event as either “black tie” or “costume vintage. [custom_adv] ” You can think of places to tell your guests about where they might find some cool costume clothes or old tuxedos for the men. [custom_adv] It’s great to feature the guest of honor, too, if you have one, by allowing her to suggest some stores for clothing purchase or rental. [custom_adv] So you want to invite some people. Maybe choose people whom you don’t know that well, to make it more of a meet-and-greet, since it will likely be a fun evening for anyone. [custom_adv] You never know who you might find by looking through your phone, and if someone you know has a special skill, like comedy or poetry, invite them to read or perform at your event. You could also recruit a good band this way, too, possibly. [custom_adv] Be sure you have some fun games on hand for your guests, and maybe play some interactive games that don’t require too much effort on your part, like charades or bingo. [custom_adv] If you want to play Oscar Bingo, which is popular, you can pick times when the actors on TV do something funny or emotional to erase your cards. [custom_adv] This is great for an Oscar-viewing party, but not for too many other times. Ordinary bingo is great, though. [custom_adv] Sounds like fun, no? You can make sure you invite all your friends to dress up and watch an old film or have a birthday celebration that you get fancy with.
