Christinia Asked: Hello Taryn, I have been following your page for a while now, and I must say that I love it! It is loaded with so much inspiration. I really love all of the ideas I have gleaned from the different get-togethers and parties you have thrown. Having said that, I am planning a fall party for a large group of friends, ages 18-30. The party will take place the first weekend in October over two days at a location with cabins, fields, and a lake. Do you have any suggestions or ideas about what to do? Thank you for your help and your wonderful blog! Christina The Wife Answered: Christina….
How sweet of you to organize such a great weekend for your friends! Here are some Ideas off the top of my Head (Where is this taking place… What area?) I would kick off the Weekend with a really simple and cozy welcome Dinner the First Evening. Possibly followed by a Game Night (I’m obsessed with Boogle at the moment. Or a fun game of Pictionary or Charades) The Second Night check to see if there is a fun Pub in town, for cocktails and possibly one that has live music. And Definitely a Hearty farewell Brunch the last day.
For Activities on the lake, Are there Row boats or Canoes Available to rent? Or maybe a Dock for Fishing? If there is great fish in the lake maybe incorporate what everyone caught into a Dinner.
The Fields would be great for Fall Sports, When I think of Fall Activities… I think: Touch Football, Rugby, Baseball or Softball, and a good ol‘ game of Horse Shoe (There is a Cute Set at Restoration Hardware.)
Another Great Idea is to look into Horseback riding in the Area. Also Check to See if there are any Orchards in the area… Right now is the perfect time to go apple and pumpkin Picking! Maybe some of the other ladies might be interested in baking fresh apple or pumpkin pies, if the cabins are equipped with kitchens, Pots and Pans, Etc. And last but not Least, a classic campfire with Smores!
I hope all my Ideas help for making an extraordinary weekend with your friends! Let me know how it goes! Good Luck!
THE WIFE xoxo
