Movie Night

No matter what you're in the mood for - adventure, comedy, romance - or even horror! - there's nothing like curling up on the couch in your comfiest pajamas with a yummy snack and a good movie - and did we mention about twenty of your closest friends?!? It's Movie Night! And whether you gather a big or small crowd, the stars will definitely be in alignment for this fun party that's worth the price of admission!

That's the Ticket! Send guests an invitation that's just the ticket - a movie ticket, that is! Using cardstock or construction paper, create movie tickets with all the party details, including what time the show starts! Remind guests to bring the ticket with them to the show - be sure to set up an area where you can take tickets and tear off a stub before the fun begins! For simpler invitations, cut out yellow stars like those on the Hollywood Walk of Fame! Put each guest's name in their star and request the honor of their presence on the back!

Having trouble deciding which movie to show? Include a small ballot in your invitations and ask guests to vote and send them back with their RSVP!

Afraid the show will be sold out by the time you get around to making invites? Then stop into Party City for fun Movie Night Invitations to let friends know that you hope they'll be Coming Soon!

Premiere Ideas! Try some of these fun Movie Night tips and tricks to ensure that all your guests get the star treatment! No autographs, please!

Encourage guests to come to party dressed in their PJs! Both kids and parents alike will love snuggling up with their favorite movie for a night of drama, suspense, intrigue - and a lot of good, comfy fun! Or, go glam! And ask them to come dressed as their favorite movie star!

Roll out the Red Carpet - literally! Visit Party City for inexpensive tablerolls - in red, of course! Line the entryway of your home (or hall if you're renting a place!) so as guests arrive, they'll feel like true Hollywood royalty!

Speaking of Hollywood royalty, make your friends and family feel even more glamorous than they already are! Pick up several pairs of sunglasses and fun feather boas in lots of vibrant colors at your nearest Party City store and hand them out to guests as they arrive!

Set up a Make-Your-Own Popcorn Bar! Pop the popcorn in advance, but fill the "bar" with lots of different salts, spices and syrups so friends can make their own flavored snack! Find Movie Night Bowls and Popcorn Treat Sacks at Party City - or set up a simple concession stand and offer popcorn, soda, hot dogs and boxes of candy! It can be as easy as a folding table lined with Party City's Lights! Camera! Action! Star Tableskirt! Just be sure to have a movie intermission to let folks stock up on refreshments!

While you're visiting Party City, pick up our Lights! Camera! Action! Party Game! See if guests can correctly guess which movie star they are (attached to their backs!) by asking the other guests questions about their own identity! If younger guests are attending the party as well, try to come up with several celebrity names ahead of time that will be familiar to them so they can play along too!

Swag Bag Like most glamorous Hollywood nights, guests simply can't go home without some cool "swag" to remember the evening! Fill gift bags with packets of microwave popcorn, a box of candy and a video rental coupon - or even movie tickets! Add gold tissue paper and sprinkle in some Lights! Camera! Action! Confetti for a little extra sparkle! Movie posters from your local video store make great party favors too!

Or let guests know that they were real winners with Oscar Trophies from Party City!

Thank Your Lucky Stars! Thank your guests for an unforgettable evening with Popcorn Thank Yous! Slide your thanks inside a Popcorn Treat Sack and add an extra sweet treat (if you didn't use it for the Swag Bag!) - a movie rental coupon or movie ticket! Or a photo of each guest dressed in their Movie Night best!

Or visit Party City for more fun Movie Night Thank Yous that'll surely receive four stars!
