Now that our beloved Colts are in the big game, it’s time to get ready to host a Superbowl party—Hoosier style! We’ll be sharing our favorite tips and recipes plus where to find the coolest Colts party supplies all the way to the big day.
Step one, of course, is to invite guests. This isn’t a red carpet event, though, so don’t stress over formal invitations. Call your family, email your friends and update your Facebook status.
Greg Jenkins of Bravo Events also suggests letting our guests in on the atmosphere of the event. With a Superbowl, it’s usually pretty casual but if you are including certain guests to make an impression (boss? business partner? mother-in-law?), you should be sure the rest of your friends are aware. Don’t forget to remind everyone that they should arrive in blue—you might even consider having a contest for the most spirited outfit.
Next, you’ll need to decide on a budget. On Monday, we’ll explore ideas for keeping your costs down to make the most of your money but start thinking about how much you’ll spend. If guests offer to bring something, feel free to delegate—it’s a great way to spread some of the workload as well as keep your party under budget.
With an instant theme, automatic entertainment and sheer excitement surrounding the entire week, a Superbowl party is one of the easiest to host.
