DCL Party Planning Thread (combined threads)

[kpros]

I haven't figured out what we are going to do at our party. Probably have some prizes and do a wine tasting as well. I've got to get our invitations out in the next few days.

Do any of you have those big white mickey hands? We are going to wave good bye to our guests with them when they leave!

We made the konk kooler and miami vice - sailaway drink and they looked awesome in the DCL disney hurricane cups we have. I should have taken a picture, but we drank them before we thought of it. We're not lushes, truly we aren't. We are going to make them again to make sure we have them down right I'll take pics of them and post them here. I used the konk kooler recipe from the boards but used Hawaii's Own passion orange instead of welches that the recipe called for, YUM! the miami vice i got off of google search, pretty much a frozen pina colada topped with a frozen strawberry dacquri with a shot of rum tossed in, or two.
Happy planning all!

I think we are going to make our party a kids party that the parents are encouraged to stay at. We are coming up w/some games, and it looks like they will have some prizes in the packs they are sending...

I am so excited about the box of stuff. My DD and I are going on a cruise in May, she has the OBC spent already.
We will be making pina colada pudding, shrimp cocktail, brushetta, chocolate fountain, snacks with dip, turkey mulfetta sandwiches and coral coolers!!
Keep those ideas flowing!!

H2O+ is having a sale on their website. It might be worth checking out for all of you that were thinking of giving them out as prizes.

I have to login t 2 times...first time says my password is wrong...as soon as I do it again it goes right through..why that is I dont know.

I can't get the recipe cards to come up - when I click on them in the favor area it says there are no favors.

I guess I'll have to email them as well.

I think they're sending actual recipe cards to us. Maybe that's why that link isn't working.

Whats funny is the first day they came up and was going to print them and figured I'd just wait since had plenty of time. Than tried again a few days later and they were no longer available...

 

[lillygator]

nope no fix...i guess I should e mail them.

Anyone in Central California (Fresno) having a Houseparty???

Thanks to the poster that mentioned "MARSHALLS" having H2O products. I went there tonight and got the "bath exotcs" in the Casaba Melon shower and bath gel, the mineral spa shower and bath gel, Lavender and sage shower and bath gel...also some other H2O products.

They were all $3.00 each and are 8fl oz. The woman there said they always have them. Great prices saved alot of $$$$ and will put one in each goodie bag.

I also went to H2O website and got these for our door prise and games...

I sell MaryKay so will add some of that also as gifts.....sure saved me bunches of $$$$ at MARSHALLS

If anyones interested; Walgreens had some cute pedicure and manicure sets, they came in a little tin and the brand was Ms Manicure or Ms Pedicure, regularly $7.99 got them yesterday for $1.99. I have decided just to have the ladies and thought this would work to add to their gift bags. I also bought a little Tinker Bell backpack and was filling it with cruise essentials, maybe things people wouldn't think about needing or pampering items. Oh walgreens did have other sets (same brand) some cheaper, some higher. One Walgreens didn't even know they were on sale until I asked them to scan them. Just thought somebody might find this a little useful. Thanks to everyone for all the suggestions and getting me pumped up for this party, I think we'll have a blast!!!

I will be visiting Marshalls for sure. My daughter works at TJ Maxx and gets a discount at Marshalls too! Hopefully they carry the H2O products here as well.
