Whatever it is, the first thing that comes to mind, when you are out there to host a party, is setting a budget. Try to keep things simple, without trying to go overboard, to impress. If you want to indulge in firecrackers, that is a good idea, but they don’t come cheap. So, it is totally up to you, if you want to sponsor them or want your guests to carry their own.
So, without any further delay, let us delve into party hacks, which will make your Diwali party memorable, no matter where it is held.
The Guest List
Always remember, that not everybody is genuinely happy for you. So, choose your guests carefully. An ostentatious display of wealth is not at all needed. You can keep the guest list intimate. Always mandate RSVP, to avoid last-minute hassles and food cancellations. It will help you to save on unnecessary food bills.
The Theme and Decor
You can ascertain the theme well in advance, in keeping with the guest demographics. Once you hit on a theme, you will get the color scheme as well. After that, doing all the décor will not be a problem. DIY is in, and you can think out-of-the-box to churn out quite a few decorations yourself. Take social media for inspiration. There are various wall decorations, table settings, lighting, and dress codes, which you can sync with one another. For Diwali, decorating the venue is easy, with marigold garlands and rice lights. You can also get in a few sky lanterns if you have some space up on the terrace. They look heavenly at night. These are money-saving party tips, which you can try. Add a bit of glitter and shimmer everywhere with foil and spray paint.
Diwali Fooding and Snacking
Depending on the time your party starts, you have to be ready with finger food, mocktails, soft drinks, mithai, and chocolates, too. And this happens to be just the prelude. Samosas are very cost-effective and filling. Pani puris are also quite satiating. If you keep vegetarian options, it will be more cost-effective. Tea, lemonade, and soft drinks will give a jumpstart to the Diwali party. Sweets and desserts also come close, especially if you are having a nice dinner spread. You can keep a simple menu, with two to three food items, like rice or roti, some dals, salads, and a side dish. Most people will eat less, after all the snacking and dancing. So, you can save on the flooding, in this manner.
Diwali Activities
You must keep these Diwali party hacks handy, to be able to enjoy the party with your guests. Everyone loves to post party pictures on social media. So, you can set up a photo booth to keep things interesting. Nicely decorate the spot with cheap wallpaper, or DIY craft works. Use ample rice lights as they are quite cheap. Diwali is a time of merrymaking, so you are likely going to love some singing and dancing. You can get a free music system at the venue, or hire a DJ if you have the budget.
If someone amongst your friends wants to sing and host the musical night, then allow that. Moreover, you can allow a rising talent to showcase themselves. These options will help you to save on Diwali events. Card games are also common, so you can include that as well. Alongside, you can keep the cushion passing game which Bollywood has celebrated in great movies.
