Movie lovers and even casual fans enjoy watching the Oscars. Whether it's to root for certain movies to win or to critique the wardrobe of the attendees, many people will find a reason to watch the awards show. Consequently, some people throw Oscar parties for their family and friends. Adding exciting items for Oscar Night parties just adds more fun to the evening.
Celebrities who attend the Oscars are usually dressed in their finest clothes; therefore, people attending Oscar Night parties might dress the same. Men might wear fancy suits and women wear evening gowns. Partygoers can also be creative and wear costumes of their favorite movie characters such as Scarlett O'Hara or Hannibal Lecter.
Party hosts should decorate their house with movie-appropriate items. Cardboard standees or plastic miniature versions of the Oscar statue can adorn coffee tables or fireplace mantels. Gold balloons and streamers will brighten up your residence. If party hosts have posters of Oscar-winning movies (such as Titanic), they can hang those on the walls. To really attract people's attention, place a red-carpet runner from the driveway up to your front door.
No party would be complete without outstanding food and drinks. Finger foods and snacks are the easiest food to serve during the awards ceremony. Hosts can make cheese and crackers shaped like tuxedos or serve themed dishes like "Bubba Gump Shrimp Cocktail." For dessert, consider star-shaped cookies or cupcakes with an Oscar-like statue on top. Popcorn remains a favorite and Eatable has a unique champagne and white chocolate-flavored gourmet popcorn.
Speaking of champagne, either that or wine should please partygoers. For non-alcoholic drinks, hosts might provide sparkling water or themed drinks such as Barbie Pink Lemonade. Guests can drink their beverages from wine glasses with stars engraved on them or glittery plastic cups.
Throughout the evening, hosts might encourage guests to play games and contests. Many websites offer printable Oscar ballots, so partygoers can make their guesses and see who gets the most winners right. Play Oscar Night Bingo, where possible squares include "Somebody wears blue" and "A winner almost forgets to thank someone." People can use a photo booth and Oscar statue props to pretend they're winners. Another popular option is trivia games, such as You Gotta Know Movies Trivia Game, and the winning player or team might win a movie theater gift card as a prize.
