Top products from r/partyplanning

Ahh yes forgot about all the people who would still be under 21. Totally makes sense. Ok here are random ideas, forgive all the links. I usually go crazy making a pinterest board with EVERY random idea I find and then I edit down.

• Referee stripe photo backdrop - I feel like this is not too girly or anything.
  *Or a football field backdrop. Also look around, there are a ton of options for photo props if you feel like that wouldn't scare him away. :)
  
• Custom birthday beer banner
  
• Football plastic cups - you can also DIY this with brown solo cups and a white paint marker
  
• Cavs decor from Party City
  
• Baseball pizza
  
• Sports ball-themed ping pong balls - I would definitely set up a beer pong tournament to bring the beer/sports theme together
  

If you can have the party...outside...try to keep everyone outside.

Or I found this on Amazon...not sure how well it works: https://www.amazon.com/Kenley-Protector-Adhesive-Plastic-Protection/dp/B013X5SMDA/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1538722997&sr=8-15&keywords=rug+protector

Encourage people to drink responsibly...maybe limit your invite list to smaller group of people...keep the bar and activities in ares that don't have new floors (? not sure what the layout of the space is...) Serve items that would not "stain" as much: clear soda and vodka :(

Are the "new floors" carpet? if so has it been treated with stain-preventer, like scotch-guard?

​

(Paint traps and anything not securely in place will only cause people to trip. slip and fall...even before they start drinking.)

Oh thank you for liking the theme.

I thought of these things long ago, but I just can't combine them together.

But how to put it all together????
I don't care that the air sculptures don't move a lot.

Ceremony is outdoors.

Reception is indoors ... No venue yet, got lots of time, but I like planning everything together so it all has a cohesive feel.

Invitations will be pressed flowers.
Same types of flowers incorporated into ceremony and decor.

Thanks a bunch!

The windows were a little time consuming but worth it. Just foam board and electrical tape from the dollar tree and a $5 watercolor palette 🎨 from Wal-Mart (plus a pencil, ruler, and sharpie).

Edit: in case you're interested...

Window boxes were also made from stuff from the dollar tree (foam board, fake grass, and foam blocks). Just glued them together with hot glue and to finish them up I just painted them with acrylic paint.

For the awnings above the windows I bought theses:

Teacher Created Resources Parisian Awning (77185) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00SUWYAW4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_7XgDDb0365116

I sanded off the gloss coating and repainted them (pink = spray paint, stripes = acrylic), then added gold ribbon.
