Holi Party Planning: Tips to Have the best Holi Bash
As the festival of colours approaches, people all over India gear up to celebrate with vibrant colours, delicious food, and lots of laughter. And what better way to celebrate than by throwing an unforgettable Holi party? But hold on, before you start planning your Holi bash, let's take a look at some suggestions which could make your Holi Celebration stand out.
Tip 1: Skip the Colours go For Flowers Yes, you read that right. Contrary to popular belief, you don't need colours to have a fun Holi party. In fact, skipping the colours can make your party more accessible to those who may have allergies, sensitivities, or simply don't enjoy getting dirty.
Instead, focus on other activities like playing games, dancing, or having a water fight. This does not mean that you have to completely throw Holi's essence out of the window. You could always have a Holi Party wherein you replace colours with flower petals, loads and loads of Flowers. You could plan an absolute Bash without Harsh colours and have a Vrindavan 'Phoolon Ki Holi' at your Delhi Holi Party Farmhouse. One could also go for a pool party for this one as most farmhouses ask for extra charges to clean their pools post a Holi party.
Tip 2: Look Out for Un-Tasted Cuisines over Traditional Holi Food - Holi is known for its delicious food, but it doesn't mean you have to stick to the traditional dishes like gujiya, dahi bhalla, and thandai. Instead, experiment with different cuisines and fusion dishes to surprise and delight your guests. From Mexican tacos to Italian pasta, the possibilities are endless.
Tip 3: Opt for a Sober Party - Alcohol is often synonymous with parties, but it's not a must-have for a fun Holi bash. In fact, having a sober party can be a refreshing change and ensure that everyone can enjoy the festivities without worrying about safety or getting too intoxicated.
Offer a variety of non-alcoholic drinks like fresh juices, mocktails, and vibrant flavoured water to keep everyone hydrated and refreshed on this festival of colours.
Tip 4: Ditch the Loud Music - Loud music is often a hallmark of Holi parties, but it doesn't have to be. Instead of blasting music, consider having a live band or DJ who can play a variety of genres and cater to different tastes. This way, everyone can enjoy the music without feeling overwhelmed by the volume.
Tip 5: Go Green - Holi is a festival that celebrates the arrival of spring, so why not embrace that theme and make your party eco-friendly? Use natural colours made from flowers and plants while trying to avoid single-use plastic. You can also incorporate sustainability into your decor by using recycled materials and DIY crafts.
In conclusion, while the general narrative of a "best Holi party" may involve loud music, traditional food, and lots of colours, there are plenty of alternative ways to celebrate this joyous festival. By trying out these tips, you can make your Holi bash unique, memorable, and inclusive for all. So go ahead, challenge the status quo, and have a blast!
