Get these %^^$ snakes out of our party!
Set: We combined two great (?) scary movies with the classic Hitchcock "The Birds" with 2007's marketing hit, "Snakes on the Plane" with Samuel L. Jackson. A warm Florida evening for a double feature under the stars was the set of the day. Invitations were Boarding Passes so that we could assign outside seating based on your ZONE!
Costumes: We had a 757 load of stewardesses and pilots along with the much maligned bird victims!
Catering:
The challenge was fowl or reptile, so Curry Chicken, Chick satay and gummy snakes fit the bill. Real brave souls tried the rattlesnake on a skewer!
Drink: Green Jello Shots became AntiVenom and the Stews served drinks in mini-bottles of wine and cocktails along with bags of peanuts. It was a BYO, so all guests had to bring their drinks in clear bags for security.
Score: If you know Rich, he has a large collection of Horror music, sound effects and film themes. A mix of classic Halloween themes and sound effects played during the cocktail period as well as airport landing and takeoff sound effects, birds screaming and snakes hissing. All in all, a most serene event.
