If you have a tween it’s safe to say that you’ve heard of Twilight. You may even be a fan yourself. I certainly am! Because so many people love the Twilight series, here are a few Twilight party ideas that would be helpful for a birthday party, screening party before the release of the next movie, girl’s sleepover and other parties.

Twilight Party Decorations – First, you have to get the party decorations right. Keep in mind that Twilight is the story of a young vampire who falls in love with an ordinary girl. You don’t have to go overboard with the vampire party decorations. Just think more “romantic Halloween” party supplies for your Twilight party. Here are a few key party supplies to think about when planning your Twilight party.

• Apple mylar balloons or crescent mylar balloons
• Plates, napkins, cups and other dinnerware with Twilight prints or in golden and black colors
• Chocolate brown tablecloths, latex balloons and other decorations
• Twilight themed flowers

If you don’t want to see the faces of Bella and Edward on all of your party supplies, use a color theme instead. Think very earthy and dark like a Halloween theme. Use chocolate browns, topaz and golds (Edward’s eye color) and black.

Twilight Punch – It’s easy to create your own blend of Twilight punch. Make sure the punch is blood red. You may want to add a small bit of food coloring to achieve this color. If you are worried that the punch will stain, use only a small amount and keep in mind that blood red lips will be an appropriate costume effect for the movie release.

Another tip for the punch is to use sparkling ginger ale instead of regular. This is carbonated, of course, but adheres to the image of the vampires’ sparkling skin.

Twilight Music – Music sets the mood for a room so make sure to have the Twilight soundtrack and other somewhat eerie music playing in the background. Throw a bit of humor in the mix and add “Monster Mash” if you like watching the surprise on people’s faces as the music suddenly turns silly.

Twilight Party Entertainment – The enchanting theme of the book makes your Twilight party the perfect time for an illusionist (skilled magician). If you’d rather stick to entertaining each other, throw in the first movie.

You can also play a Twilight trivia game similar to a popular bridal shower game. Create mouths with fangs using velvet and a permanent marker or visit your local party store and see what Vampirical tags they have. Ask questions to each player who loses a pair of fangs for each wrong answer. The last person with a fang is the winner. If it comes down to a tie or a tiebreaker, make sure each has a chance to answer at least one question.

Your Twilight party is going to be awesome. Your tween will think you’re the coolest parent alive. If you’re hosting a Twilight party for yourself, your friends may snicker a bit but the Twilight enthusiasts in the group will know how much you rock. Have fun!
