If you think it\u2019s too late to plan a fun party to celebrate the best in film, you\u2019re wrong! A perfect Oscars get together only requires a few simple steps. Here is your guide!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Ballots\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An important part of the Academy Awards is voting! While the winners have already been decided, it\u2019s fun to voice your opinion. You can write what films you like best, or if you want to get competitive- vote who you think will win and tally up who got the most right guesses in the end. Just google \u201cOscars ballot\u201d and print!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Snacks<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to make the party fancy, classy hor d&#8217;oeuvres or a charcuterie board are the way to go! Don\u2019t let this intimidate you- these are plenty of easy recipes to follow online. Your menu won\u2019t be complete without dessert. You can\u2019t go wrong with themed cookies or small pieces of a descendant cake.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Drinks<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A nice wine or champagne are always a good way to go. However, why not spice things up with Best Picture themed cocktails. What about a \u201cTrial of the Chicago Sidecar\u201d or a \u201cSound of Mojito.\u201d Get creative with your puns and your bartending skills. Make sure to have a mocktail option for friends staying sober or under 21.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Attire<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Going ultra formal for an Oscars party is of course an option. We\u2019ve been cooped up all year and would love an opportunity for dressing up. Another stellar idea is to dress like a character from a Best Picture nominee. Go 60s styles for <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trial of the Chicago 7<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Judas and the Black Messiah<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or rock a colored wig and nursing outfit for <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Promising Young Woman<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Decor<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gold is the way to go for decor! Create cute invitations to send to your guests, you can do this via email, too! Be sure to get a fun and fancy backsplash to take pictures in front of. You can print movie posters for some of the films. It may be too late to get decorations off of Amazon, but check out your local party supplies store and see what they have.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Joyelle Ronan The 93rd Academy Awards are Sunday, April 25th at 8 pm.
