Decor

A masked party is a mysterious event, and that's why it is often decorated with soft colors that further mark the state of intrigue. Black, in general, is the most used color for decorations, but you can play with other colors apart from this to adapt it more to the theme you have chosen. Use secondary colors such as gold, red, green, purple and silver.

Food

Let the music not be lacking

An antifacesno party is a party if there is no music and dancing .

Live music is one of the stars in this type of event, in which it is tradition to hire a musical band, a string quartet or a DJ.

But if you plan to do it at home or on a terrace with little space, it is normal to use a sound system to play the appropriate music according to the theme of the party such as classical or baroque music for a Victorian party, jazz for an event of the decade of the 20s, Christmas carols for Christmas parties, etc.

Some entertainment

The music can be used to create atmosphere but the masked parties are always accompanied by some kind of entertainment such as poker games, dance competitions, among others.

Something that is usually done enough is to give each guest a number and try to know who is under the mask. To do this, there is a time limit and the results are saved, at the end of the party the "uncover" takes place and the guests show their identity. There may be a small prize for each success.
