Every host or hostess wants to throw the perfect party, and to many people this means having an array of alcoholic beverages for their guests to enjoy.

1
Choose a theme for your party and go all out with corresponding decorations and music to really set the mood.
-
2
Hire a local band, depending on how big your budget is. Guests will be enjoying the music instead of looking for the bar.
-
3
Fill up the evening with activities related to your theme. Whether it's a pool party, a Super Bowl party, a Hawaiian luau or a tribute to the 80s, make sure that you give your guests plenty of games and activities to keep them entertained.
-
4
Provide plenty of great foods and beverages so that guests won't miss the fact that they're not drinking alcohol. Mix exotic colors and textures for a flavorful experience. And rather than simply setting out cans of soda, try offering flavored teas or mocktails (nonalcoholic cocktails).
-
5
Tell guests to arrive in a costume appropriate to your party theme, then have a contest to pick the best dressed and award that guest a prize. People generally enjoy dressing up, and your guests will have fun admiring each other's outfits and vying for the prize.
-
6
Get the guests involved with one another through a group activity. Karaoke, board games and interactive video games are all a great way to involve everyone at your party. Try to convince everyone to participate equally so that no one gets left out.
-
7
Give out door prizes and offer prizes to the winners of the various activities. Or ask periodic trivia questions related to your theme throughout the evening and have a small prize ready for the first person to guess correctly.

I recently had to throw one of these. I was suprised how much I based my planning around alcohol...in the food, the dessert and drinks. It is a great challenge to throw an adult party without any. -
