I am planning a birthday party for my boyfriend. However I have one problem: the timing!?

I am doing this wicked birthday party for my bf. I have been working on it and planning it for ages, however I have one problem and because of it things aren't quite coming together. I have to be back in my dorm at 9pm sharp! Now that means theres no staying up partying the night away :( Now, yeh, that does suck but I dont plan on ruining his party just cuz I cant party all night long!





What should I do? I was thinking of starting the party at 4 pm. But then partying at 4pm?? It seems out of place. Maybe I thought, I cud do a pool party.. I really dont know. Im stuck for ideas now and I only have 4 weeks left!!





Please please give me any of ur ideas, or tips. I am totally stuck and I dont want to ruin it for him.

Start the party at noon. Buffet lunch. Poker tables. Loud music.
Reply:If you have to be back at the dorm at 9pm if you are staying there for the night, make arrangements with a friend, or even your man, to stay somewhere else. If you don't have to go back to the dorm before a certain time, partying wont be a problem.
Reply:I think 6 pm would be a better time, then again you didn't mention what day it was on. 4 pm might be good if it's on a weekend, but if it's a weekday, 6 pm would be more appropriate.
Reply:If it's going to be on a weekend, starting to party in the middle of the day is fine! People start BBQs and outdoor things all different times during the summer. You could even go a little earlier than 4 and make it a lunch time thing, that goes into the evening, like 2 o'clock. But then you'll still have lots of time before you have to go. . . . If it's a weekday, 4 may be too early for peope to start partying, and get out of work, etc. You might be better off with 6 at that point. . . .Keep in mind, if you have 4 weeks still, maybe you can get out of whatever it causing you to need to leave early. Best of luck!
Reply:There is nothing wrong with starting a party that early...most "adult" parties start in the late afternoon...a pool party would be fun...inexpensive, and ensure your guests would have plenty to do to entertain themselves..plus...the "decorations" would be a cinch...anything nautical..puka shells or leis for the guests as they arrive...(there is a cool company called Oriental Trading Co..and they are on-line.. where you can get ALL kinds of cool, CHEAP stuff for a party..I've used them quite a bit, and have never been disappointed...)...


But most of all...have fun!
