We understand the ‘oology’ of events and we always have our pulse on the latest event trends. The tricky part of your post-Covid event planning will be coming up with the perfect theme or party idea, and this is where Eventologists can add inspiration. Creative event themes are an amazing way to take any party to the next level – ensuring your guests have an awesome time and step away from a very memorable event. There’s no doubt that following almost four months of lockdown, a big celebration party will be at the top of many people’s minds. I hope to get all of the recipes mentioned here on the Food and Festivities blog very soon.75 Best Party Themes that Event Planners Suggest after Covid-19 Lockdown We love to hear him sing and play guitar…definitely the highlight of the evening. 😉 The entertainment for the evening was one of my oldest and dearest friends, Greg Ashby. One of those that kind of sneaks up on you.

For appetizers I made Spicy Rosemary Maple Bar Nuts, Retro Cheese Spread, Caramelized Onion Dip and a meat and cheese tray including my favorite Stuffed Salami! Sides included Bacon and Jalapeno Deviled Eggs, Best Ever Picnic Slaw, and one of my BFF Lynn’s, Butterfinger Grape Salad…that’s right, I said Butterfinger…soooo good! And to top it all off this delectable Chocolate Casino Cake♠♣♥♦ The cocktail of the evening was my own creation….Wild Jacks! It was totally delicious and pretty potent. I got everything on Amazon…really cute stuff and very inexpensive. I also got casino themed paper lanterns and hanging decorations and a bunch of other fun casino items. For decorations I ordered 12 inch square white boxes and black dot stickers to make giant dice and huge 11×17 playing cards to use as table decorations. We also had Tip Boards, Corn Hole, and a Candy Jar guessing game. We had them all set up with cards, poker chips, dice, LCR(Left, Center, Right) dice game, and Farkle. I got green felt poker tables cloths for all of the tables. I had the main dishes catered and I made a cocktail, appetizers, sides, and dessert and had fun with the decorations.

Ultimately, we decided to have a Casino Party! It was so much fun for everyone, regardless of age! I wanted to spend my time and energy on decorations and the cake! Normally I kill myself trying to do everything before a big party so this time I decided to compromise.

My son just graduated from college….YAY….congrats Evan!! And since I LOVE to throw parties, especially theme parties, we deliberated…or rather I bugged him, until he settled on a theme.
