Fun Party Ideas
Back-To-Back People are asked to dance as singles on the dance floor. When the music stops, everyone is to find a partner and interlock their arms back-to-back. The last two people to form a pair are out. The music will be started and stopped until there is one remaining pair on the dance floor. They are the winners.
Centerpiece Givaway During the meal, the D.J. will ask someone at each table to hold up a dollar bill. When the music plays, the dollar bill is to be passed around the table clockwise (to the right). When the music is stopped, the person holding the dollar is to become the In-Charge for the rest of the guests at the table during the remainder of the reception. They are to make sure that anybody who needs a drink or anything else, will get serviced. That person keeps the dollar for their efforts in this regard. Now the folks who initially held up the dollar bills have just bought themselves the table centerpiece! (Very fun game to get the crowd motivated.)
Conga Line D.J. asks for everyone on the dance floor to form a line behind the Bride & Groom with their hands on the waist of the person in front of them. The line goes all around the room and picks up guests and ends up with everyone on the dance floor.
Freeze Contest A volunteer “judge” is chosen. The people are instructed to stand in the middle of the dance floor and dance in couples or singles while the music is playing. When the music stops, they must immediately freeze or the judge will tap them on the shoulder and they will be “out.” This continues until a winner is determined.
Line Dance The D.J. asks participants to form two lines, one facing the other. All the guys stand in one line and all the gals stand in the other. The couple at the far end of the line are instructed to dance between the lines, bumping their hips along the way, when the music starts.
Multiplication Dance For this dance everyone stands in a circle. The D.J. will choose a man and a woman to dance in the middle of the circle. When the D.J. announces "break", the people in the middle of the circle is to pick someone of the opposite sex to join them. Only the people in the middle of the circle dance. This continues until everyone is dancing. This is a great way to get the whole crowd to dance.
