When Ivey and I were working on our project, Foxy Academy, part of our assessment of a celebrity dude would include surmising how he’d behave at The Ultimate Party. Would the guy be friendly to other guests at this imaginary shindig, or might he be a dick? Is he a self-absorbed mooch or the type to show up with a case of beer? Would he initiate fun, be a total downer, or save a fellow Foxy Academy pupil who got too drunk from drowning in the kidney-shaped pool? (Ivey: “I need to see LL Cool J helping drunken Michael Cera out of our pool (and saying, ‘It’s alright, playa’) like, TODAY.”)
What might this Ultimate Party look like? Here are some ideas and ingredients that I imagine might be present that you should implement at your next gathering tout de suite:
A fun playlist is key, regardless of the format.
My outfit for the night:
Balloons get the party atmosphere going.
…Lots and lots of balloons.
Decorate with the bleedin’ obvious.
All good parties should have a dessert.
It’s important to make everyone feel welcome, even the caterers.
Lisa Frank dinnerware only enhances the experience.
Help guests open their microbrews in style.
A good party involves a level of improvisation.
Keep guests entertained with games.
You know someone’s going to start a fire — be chic about snuffing it out.
Don’t forget to decorate the bathroom!
An adult-sized tunnel fort lined with twinkle lights is a must.
What all those Battleshots lead to:
More sounds:
An area for the more chill guests who just want to relax and/or feel up their date under a blanket:
Impress guests with a water feature.
Set the night aglow!
Keep it real with a campfire.
Something festive to drink around the fire:
Drown in the ambiance!
Don’t be shy about getting your friends in the pool.
How to seduce people into swimming:
Pool rave:
What’s a party without some live, impromptu music?
Make sure too-drunk guests have a nice place to sleep.
Care for your inebriated pals.
