Top Secret Shin diggin - 01-07-08, 12:01 PM

The party elves are hard at work putting on a top secret shin dig, and I wanted to help the process somewhat by getting some feedback from you all...

What are the best days of the week for a.... er... 2 day event/party? Is it something you would take a Saturday off for?

While we are at it... why not let me know what you would reallyreallyreally love to see at 2 day shindig (within reason... I mean, releasing white doves when you walk through the door would be a little OTT).

Thanks all!

SAT / SUN FOR ME!

'Poshed up' dress code
Champers
Nice / unusual Finger Food/canapes
Good company
Nice music
oh....and preferably 'outdoors' and a SUNNY DAY / Evening!

Agree hot hunks serving the canape's / champagne would be a rather nice touch....better leave hubby @ home then

Relaxed dress code I'm definitely with you on, I've not gone to things because I didn't know what to put on, Choc fountain I never did before as Chocolate makes me pass out but at least I wouldn't worry about what I was wearing for long! I can hide in the loo for the silly games but the rest sounds fun Music/food sounds good too. Fun auction or comp of some description?

When you say 2 day shindig Sam I'm assuming you mean some events like demo's etc during the day with a fun night in between?

Saturday/Sunday for me too. I am however working on the assumption that I could still book clients in on Saturday am and come along in the pm, so this would depend on how far I would need to travel & what time kick off would be.

For a shindig, I would like to see:

Inflatable sumo wrestling suits
Vodka jelly
pass the parcel with CND goodies as the prize

It would also be fun to have a tongue-in-cheek Oscars style awards ceremony, if you posted some awards categories on the site, we could cast our votes!!
