Want to host a decadent drinks party that’ll have your guests gushing for years to come? With the venue, catering and a stocked bar all being vital elements, keep reading to see what we suggest as some tips to lift your event entertainment to a new level with the wow factor!
1. BE UNIQUE! As they step into the room why not have your guests greeted in true glamour by a Flamin’ Fun Living Red Carpet? Guaranteed to make a stunning first impression, this is also a fantastic photo opportunity and conversation piece to get your guests talking!
2. THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE! Stun your guests with a staged appearance by the amazing Sing Out Waitresses and Waiters! Beautiful harmonies, brilliant music, big personalities and even bigger voices, these cheeky serving staff are guaranteed to make your event unforgettable.
3. 
IT DON’T MEAN A THING IF IT AIN’T GOT THAT SWING! Having the right ambience is very important for a drinks reception and music can create that perfect vibe for the duration. The Polka Dots bring you a fun twist on the classic 1940’s & 50’s close harmony trio, and can tailor their set to encourage a guest gentle toe tap to full on group jive dance with all your guests!
4. LOOKING FOR SOMETHING INTERACTIVE FOR YOUR GUESTS? The Roaming Pack is a group of snappy dressed, international musicians, performing fully unplugged. They provide an immersive and charismatic show packed full of acoustic favourites throughout the decades, ready to make incredible memories of your event that will last a lifetime.
5. WATCH THE JAWS DROP with a mingling magician, such as DR Magic, appearing amongst the crowd to bamboozle your guests. A perfect conversation starter and pulls guests together in an exciting shared experience that they’ll remember forever.
6. GIVE THEM SOMETHING TO TAKE HOME, with a caricaturist, like Facebloke, who can create tangible and tasteful portraits with pen and paper, or even the modern ipad (ooh!), enabling him to wander your event and maximise your guests’ experience.
7. SAY CHEESE! Whether a classic photobooth, magic mirror or our Vintage Camper Booth, make sure your guests can capture the moment! A celebration, friends, and a plethora of props will guarantee a lot of laughs and memories to take home forever.
8. BY ALL THAT GLITTERS: In our humble opinion, a sprinkling of glitter goes a long way to making a big statement!! Our exceptionally talented Glitterbox team can provide walkabout artists to face and body paint your guests with bespoke designs, tailored for the theme – giving them something to really remember the night by!
