Need some idea's on an "original" baby shower
My soon-to-be SIL (also my BFF for 12 years) is having a baby in June. I am planning her baby shower. Anyways, she is having a girl and we are doing a Raver Baby theme. So think lots of bright colors, glowsticks, and possible flashy lights. So for it's co-ed, probably going to be between 30-50 people, I have a few game ideas, and I think I know what I'm doing for favors. Any suggestions ladies? It would be muchly appreciated.

Re: Need some idea's on an "original" baby shower
I have never been to a rave, so I may not be much help...But I would think you could serve "late night" foods like pizza, fries, burgers etc. whatever you would normally feel like having after a late night of partying.
If you have someone with an Xbox or Wii you could have everyone do a dance competition or something? I'm really not sure what else you could tie into a rave theme.
It also depends on the crowd. Is this just young friends, or is Great Aunt Elaine and Grandma Flo going to be invited? I hope its the former!
I haven't been to a rave in about 12 years, but here are some ideas that I came up with:
- Everyone gets an ecstasy tab when they walk through the door.
- Instead of walls, you have shag carpet wall coverings in shades of purple.
- No lights, only black-lit with glow-in-the-dark paint splattered all over the tables and people's glowing teeth to light the room.
- No food needed, only orange juice.
- House music with DJ.
- Everyone dresses like they did in 1998.
- When the host opens the presents, have her throw all the wrapping paper into a pit where people can roll around in it and taste it.
- A great favor would be a feather boa.
Good luck! Sounds hilarious.
"Although I think the only appropriate favors are ecstacy, candy necklaces and pacifiers or lollipops."
This!!! PERFECT!
At least pacifiers fit the baby theme!
