me and one of my girls are throwing a joined birthday party.
st. patricks day themed.
100+ people
14, 15 years old
hugeeee!
i need ideas.
activities,
music,
food,
decor,
stuff like that
please help!
haha
♥
ok so i would do the following:
decor:
obvioulsy green and white streamers, clovers hanging fromt he ceiling with green and white tableclothes… have like pots of those gold chocolate coin candy as center peices… and then if it is a dance party have there be only green, yellow and white lights… sprinkle some gold glitter on the table tops
have green hats with clovers on them available for each guest at the door to where
have evry guest where green or green and white to the party…
set a blarney stone by the door for good luck
food:
make cupcakes with vanilla cake batter but add green food coloring so they are green and have white frosting and then get like gold/yellow sprinkles on top…
potatoes! anyway you want… they are big in ireland…
average party food… people wont pay that much attention as long as you use the cupcake idea, potatoes and the pots of chocolate coins ont he tables…
have apple cider available in beer mugs for guests- the irish like to drink
irish soda bread
ham
cabbage
green m&ms
green jell-o
Music::
play music people will actually like and dance to… don’t try and get only irish musice because your guests will be like WTH??
haha… but if you want to i would search online irish dance party music- you never know! mix it in with your music now…
activities::
because you guys are like 14 and 15 party games are not going to be what you and your guests really care about-you will only want to hang out with friends and dance but here are some ideas::
at the beginning of th eparty tell all your guests that there is a secret pot of gold hidden somewhere (hide it before your guests arrive) an din it is a prize- of your choice (like something small, a gift card or something cheap from the dollar store) and whoever finds it first wins it…
have a bowl of paper three leaved clovers, and have guests blindfolded pick them out of the bowl one at a time and who ever picks out the four leaved clover wins it’s the luck of the IRISH
play spin the bottle – have people where kiss me i’m irish pins
make everyone put on a bright red or pink lipstick- even the guys so funny!- and make them kiss the blarney stone and have written above it on a peice of paper the quote about the blarney stone::
"There is a stone there,
That whoever kisses,
Oh, he never misses
To grow eloquent.
‘Tis he may clamber
To a lady’s chamber,
Or become a member
Of Parliament. "
sorry that is all i have!
hope i helped!!

Pin the hat on the leprechaun, scavenger hunt for St. Pat’s day related items: a shamrock or anything green, use your imagination. Do something with pots of gold for the door prizes.

Irish food really isn’t that great, especially for a party. Maybe some Irish soda bread and then I’d make some pastries and just dye them green with food coloring
There are lots of fun St. Patrick’s Day hats and green wigs and tiaras in Target’s dollar section. They’ve also got cute little shamrock tattoos things like that
Try party city too. I’m sure they’ve got some cute balloons, party favors and St. Patrick’s Day decorations.
Have fun! :o)

St. Pat’s Day is so much fun! Maybe you could make green drinks (kool-aid or lime-aid), green jello and stuff. If it’s a party for girls, maybe they could paint their nails green? A good activity would be to learn the words to an irish song (or learn a few irish words).
Hooray! Have fun!

Make everything green, all shades of green if you want! Green food and punch! Get green beads for everyone. I got a huge black pot full of green beads last year at the party store for about 20 bucks! Maybe play some cool fun irish music, but not all night. You know kids your age want some good dancing music! If ya’ll are setting up tables maybe have a fake pot of gold on each table surrounded by green clovers. Hmm…for games,activities your age maybe bob for green apples? have the water there bobbing in colored green. Wow you guys are gonna have a blast !!!
