Firts approach the hall where you want to have it. Find out the cost of hire. Playgroups are usually non-profit but you will need to charge a couple of dollars to cover expensenses.Until recently I was a treasurer for a playgroup. We had adults morning tea on a roster system-someone differant bought something each week. The same with a craft.We did raffles in our group.Eg Easter time we all bought an item or two to raffle off in hampers to raise some money for things like new toys coffee etc. You can ask local schools to put ads in newsletter for unwanted toys, and also new members. Start with a few friends, and if you have to advertise in the local paper. The important thing is you need donations to start with. In QLD Australia we have a state wide Playgroup Association who have good ideas, and starting points, but I have no idea if these things are world-wide. You could approach local business for your basics...coffee, tea etc until the funds started coming in. For the kids morning tea each parent would bring a piece of fruit, and we'd cut it up and share it

When I went to Mexico for a missions trip in middle school with my youthgroup, we were encouraged to write letters to friends and family asking for any amounts that they could send and prayers. You could also write to members of your church that you are close to or even have the church post a bulletin to raise money for her to go. She could also (even the whole group) hand out flyers saying that she wants to do yard work, odd jobs, babysitting etc. for money for her missions trip. Three years is plenty of time to raise that amount of money.

if either yourself, or one of your family, belongs to a church, that could be a nice wide open area. Most churches have an area for social gatherings. If you explain your situation, I'm sure something could be arranged for no, or a small fee. certainly less than chucky cheese type prices. then all you need is a couple packs of 99cent kool-aid for drinks, and ask all your family that's comes to bring a covered dish for food purposes. I hope this helps, me, my wife, and my mother all had a good ten min discussion on this question hoping to help a 7 yr old have a great birthday!!

I am not sure if this is the same thing as a "come and go" event, but we have a very large family and often hold what we call "open houses".  I advise a 2-3 hour time frame for the event.  Refreshments can be very simple, especially if you hold the shower during the afternoon hours of 2-5 or 1-4 since this is after lunch and before dinner.  Use small plates, 6 or 8 inch and provide finger foods - fresh veggies with dip, cut-up fresh fruit, small appetizers such as little quiche or little sausages wrapped around crescent roll dough.  Dessert can be sugar cookies made in hearts with the wedding date or bride and groom's names written on them.  Miniature cupcakes would be cute, too.  Provide something that will "unite" all the guests since they won't all be there at the same time.  Maybe provide a recipe card and a 3x5 card in each guest's invitation.  Have them bring a favorite recipe on the recipe card and some "advice" for the happy couple on the 3x5 card.  Have a pretty basket available to put the card in.  As each guest leaves, give them something small as a momento since you won't be able to do much in the way of games.  Perhaps a small votive candle or a little potpourri wrapped in tulle and ribbon that match the colors of the bride's colors.  After the party, as the bride-to-be unwraps each gift, take a digital or poloroid picture of her with the gift and send it in the thank-you card to the giver.  Make sure everyone has a name tag since the guest list is large.  Another option may be to consider a different venue for the party.  A church social hall, a school gym or cafeteria, a park with a gazebo, someone's back yard, may be possibilities to allow all guests to be there at the same time.  Also, if you have anyone nice enough to ask what they can do to help, be sure to accept their offer and see if they can either help set-up or clean-up or perhaps bring a veggie tray or make cookies.  This will help financially and will be less stress for you.

look on the internet for sex parties. i dont know the address but i am sure they will have it. a lady will come to the house bringing nightgowns, toys, lotions, etc. i actually went with people who were from a church and they had a blast! they are really really fun and at the end you can buy things.

My church youth group would always host ice cream "socials" and after church dinners such as hot dogs, or spagatti... for valentines day we had a couples dinner and had our boys wear tux's and girls wear fancy dresses and we served everyone in candle light and charged $30.00 a couple it was a huge success!

Find a place to host it.  Check out the legalities involved.  Have waiver / permission forms including health insurance info.  Ask around for donations of equipment.  Contact local church camps to see if they have a program that you can get ideas from and get some input on the ins and outs and then dive in with open arms!

well I have a few ideas. this is for the children and the adults. if you take the presents that you will be giving everyone and hide them then have a little scavenger hunt. give everyone a piece of paper with a riddle on it (for the children pair them up or keep theirs simple) like, "I'm Big, always cold, if you leave me open things inside will go bad" (answer a frig) so then everyone who has that one will go to the frig and they will find another riddle until they find their gift. that's always a fun one and even though it's kinda childish the adults will love it, it will bring them back to their childhood. I would also suggest having some wine sangria specifically. or you could do a Yankee swap. everyone brings a gift wrap and puts it on a table. then everyone pulls a number. if you have 12 people you would have 1-12 on little pieces of paper everyone picks a number and number one goes picks a gift (no one knows who it's from) then number two goes and they can decided to keep the one they pick or take number 1's gift. and so on until everyone has a gift then once the last one picks number one gets to decide if they want to keep what they have or pick anyone else. then everyone opens them at once and laughs about what they got. I have more ideas but this is getting long. email me and I'll see what else I can come up with

Your best bet would be to know someone who is a member at that course. They should be able to let you play as a guest of theirs. Or, you could do what we did one time, bribe the starter. Slip him $50 or $100 and most of the time he will "look the other way".
