Fall is knocking at our front door. So, do you know what means? It's time to start planning all of your fall parties! The weather is gorgeous outside and the pretty colors are upon us. During fall, there are oodles of party ideas. One that comes to mind that is great for the family is an apple pickin' party theme! Wedding and Party Network is here to give you a few party ideas and tips.
Party Location – Of course, the idea place for this party is an apple orchard. Find the closest one to you and call for information. Don't forget to pack the right supplies, such as towels, paper bags, trash bags, blanket and wipes. Have everyone dress so and always plan. However, if you're not close to an apple orchard, bring it to your own backyard.
Party Invitations – Definitely the only way to go with your party invitations is with an apple. Make sure and give out all the details, site and require an RSVP so you know how many people to plan for.
Party Decorations –Of course, stick with your theme and go with apples as part of your party decorations. Use red and white for your party colors with a touch of green. Find checkered table cloths, paper plates and paper chains to use as party decorations.
Don't forget about the centerpieces. Find a rustic bucket that you would actually use to pick apples with and fill them up with apples for a centerpiece. However, you could also use red flowers and maybe incorporate an apple into the design, just ask your local florist. This party is all about simplicity and incorporating rustic and vintage finds into the party decoration to make it feel like a true fall apple pickin' party.
Apple Party Food – Don't think that you have to serve apple in every one of your party dishes. You can serve different food in the shape of apples though. Think apple rice krispy treats, apple cake, miniature apple pie, apple sugar cookies and apple cupcakes. There are many ideas out there. Don't forget the candy apple bar and the spiced apple cider to go with everything. Make sure you display your food properly to make it an eye-catching presentation.
Party Activities – This is an easy one. The first thing that comes to mind is bobbing for apples. Who doesn't love this childhood game that's ideal for fall? Everyone will try it. You can even make a relay game out of it between two teams. That way, everyone gets involved, even the adults. There are also a variety of crafts for the children to do and the adults can even get in a little competition by seeing who makes the best apple pie.
This party theme is idea for the fall weather. It's a great time to get friends and family together to share in fall festivities. However, don't limit this party just to the fall. You could also use this theme for back-to-school parties or even a first birthrate party. So, get out and enjoy this apple party theme!
