My ‘Karaoke’ Experience At Castle House Party

What do you prefer- a castle or a hotel, for throwing birthday bash? Remember! There would hit your all near and dear ones for seeking every fun of house party. Hotels are ‘ok’ for spending few moments together but castles are unbeatable if you talk about living precious intimate moments with your loved ones. 

Scottish house party at castle sounds tickling because a castle can give you the cushion of royal touch inside with the perfect fusion of elegant landscapes in its surrounding. Last month, I underwent this beautiful feeling at house party in Craigrownie Castle. I was just an invitee there but felt as if I was a host. My tongues did not stop sending words of praise to the servicemen of the castle when I took off.

When my cousin’s call for the party in the castle came to me I was not at all interested for being its part. I am interested in hens’ night out for and sneaking in exclusive stag parties in Scotland. But the longing to have date with the royal place landed me there. And believe me! I was dumbstruck at the sight of its unprecedented beauty. While walking through the lush green garden, I paved in the splendid castle. My blinking eyes were telling how much amazed I was. The word ‘awesome’ sounds meager for complimenting its splendor and grandeur.

Anyhow, let me disclose what took away my heart indeed. Eyes of all onlookers stuck to the festoon of roses and leaves on caramel cake. The way it was decorated was enough to pop up everyone’s eyes.  But the most stunning was ‘Karaoke’. My feet were frozen when my name was announced to sing. I was like ‘WHAT, Am I supposed to sing!’ Everybody knew there that I am very shy. But I had to fulfill the wish of the birthday girl. So, I had to call an amateur singer in me at rented out exclusive castle.

Holding mike, I was on the stage. My feet were trembling and stage-phobia was tightening its claws in me. Thundering claps of the spectators filled me with some courage. All gazing eyes made me reluctant to sing at first. But mustering courage, I matched my voice with the melodious music. Sooner, the crowd began to sway and sing with me. Waiving and clapping hands made me realized as if I was a ‘Rock Star’ of the night. The fear was gone astoundingly. Was it a magic? Perhaps, it’s the intimacy of the castle that boosted me to take way hearts of all. Since then, I have been enjoying the star kind of status at every party of my family or pals.

5 Common Mistakes People Make for Planning a Party – How to Avoid Them

Whether it's your child's first birthday party, or your 25th anniversary party, or even just a stag party; what you really don’t want is the party to suck and suffer because of one simple yet disastrous mistake. Although, you’re still going to make mistakes but you can avoid the major ones by keeping these few pointers in mind.

1. Not making a guest list: You really wouldn’t want to begin a feud with a friend or relative, just because you forgot to invite Uncle Sam or you called Mike at the last minute. In amidst of planning for the party, it’s easy to forget some names. So, it’s best to make a list of guests well in advance.

2. Not deciding a theme: A party with no identity at all is just as good as not having one. It’s important to set the theme for the party so the guests know how to show up for the event. An anniversary party will be different from that of a child’s birthday, and that of first anniversary will be different from that of a 25^th anniversary, for example,(25th is silver-make it the main color in your palette for decorations and tableware).

3. Sending the invitation out too late-or too early: As mentioned in point one, sending an invitation late can hamper with people’s plan and they might not be able to show up for the party. People may forget the invitation accidently, if it arrives too early, a late invitation might not give guests enough time to plan to attend. The best time would be to send the incitation 2-3 weeks before the event and use technology to do it fast: WhatsApp, Facebook, Text Messaging, etc.

4. Not giving important information to your guests: Don’t forget to add some necessary information in the invitation like dress code, theme for the evening, will there be alcohol beverages, leave phone number details, address of the venue, etc.

5. Inappropriate party venue: Throwing a party in venue which is too big for your guest list can take the fun out of the party and also the big guest list and congested venue.

Tip: You’re going to make mistake, you’re human, the secret is to enjoy yourself and have a good time. It’s your party afterall.
