I invited a bunch of friends and told them to dress in their favorite formal dress/attire. All the girls wore pretty Homecoming and Prom dresses and the boys all wore button down shirts with or without ties. As people came to my house, my dad and I had aligned the front walkway with RED Christmas lights! (It is a good thing my dad loved Christmas lights so we had the right thing!) I had my brother video taping people as they arrived at the party and then were interviewed by my friend, Tara, on the "Red carpet." Great, right? People were basically asked what their favorite thing was about me, and then we decided what celebrity they looked the most like!
Now, you can't have an Award show party without voting for "Best Actress" or "Most likely to be Prom Queen/King" etc! Everyone received a ballot, and with everyone in attendance we voted for each other. (No one was allowed to win 2 prizes). After tallying the votes, we had our own award show. I had spray painted plastic Easter bunnies from the dollar store in Gold to give out as prizes. Each person was given a die-cut star with the category and their name on the award as well, as the presentation envelope!
After our own Awards show, some people changed back into their normal clothes to get comfy to watch the Academy Awards. We had cake and appetizers, of course, to celebrate!
This Sunday marks the 82nd annual Academy Awards. I will be watching in the comfort of my own home probably in my pajamas this year! Here is the OSCARS OFFICIAL SITE!
