We all enjoy pool parties. This article answers the how to, when to and where to questions necessary to establish a solid foundation and execute the ultimate pool party. If executed correctly, a pool party can be an extremely fun and successful event leading to a wealth of new women contacts and numerous moments of intimacy throughout the night. The pool party presents the attendees with an immediate environment of women dressed in sexy bikinis, buzzing on alcohol, in a wet environment where getting close is often a necessity for adequate communication.
Additionally, mix in a DJ and some quality music and your pool party has now become elevated to a pool party and dance party in one where attendees can dance on the designated dance floor or grind in the pool and or spa / jacuzzi.
As with every event, careful planning must be made in order to ensure the pool party's success. Discussed in detail below, this planning must include what alcohol will be served, what music will be played, what DJ will be hired, what location the party will be hosted at, the specific aspects of the guest list, the food, if any that will be served, what events will be featured, what sponsors will be acquired, what the overall agenda of the party will entail, and what time of day the party will be.
Prior to planning your pool party it is often necessary to brainstorm this five step guide by writing your ideas onto a piece of paper which you will then use to acquire your necessities and keep your vision in line to coming to fruition. Now that you have your pen and paper, the following is a ten step guide to successfully executing the ultimate pool party.
The location of your pool party is one of the most important decisions that you must make prior to making final decisions about the rest of the attributes of your pool party. The location will affect the time of day you can have the party, the loudness of the music that can be played, whether or not alcohol can be served on the property, the amount of people that can attend the pool party etc.
Try to select a private location, where you have good flexibility with time, meaning if the party continues well into the evening then the neighbors will not shut the party down. Also, it is imperative that the location allows for the service of alcohol and it also must allow music.
The ideal location is a private house, owned by a friend who is interested in having hot girls in bikini's running around all day. This friend has a nice house, doesn't have to be extravagant with room for between 50-100 people, a decent size pool and functional spa / jacuzzi with working jets. If presented correctly, it is a win / win for both you and the friend who will serve as your co-host. For him, it is an opportunity to have a variety of women come through and as the host he will have a quicker in to their intimacy and for you, well it's not your house and thus the stress of throwing the party and also having that party at your pool. It can be overwhelming.
This location also needs to have some internal rooms that can be utilized because there will be numerous attendees, once intoxicated who will want to lay down and cuddle with other attendees and do whatever else they want to do.
The timing of your party is also a very important aspect, however the decision of what time the party will take place will effect the overall ambiance of your party. More specifically a pool party that begins at 12pm and ends at 6pm will lack some of the intimacy features that a pool party that begins at 3pm and ends at 10pm or whenever.
If you want the party to spill over into the evening and some darkness which will create a more intimate environment in and out of the pool start the party around 3pm. Most of your attendees will arrive around 4-5pm and darkness will ensue a few after after the party really gets under way. Additionally, just as the alcohol starts to take effect the sun will be going down. In order to achieve this, the party must occur in a hot city and the pool and spa must be heated. Your goal is to get as many women into the pool as possible and responsibly consuming alcohol. As the sun goes down and as the alcohol sets in, women become much more prone to exposing their bathing suits and entering the water.
Alcohol is another necessity for the success of any party including a pool party. We encourage everyone to drink responsibly and to not assist or serve a minor any alcoholic beverage. There are a variety of ways to approach alcohol at a pool party or any party. The first is that you can provide the alcohol. As this can be very expensive, it is advisable to have each attendee bring a bottle of alcohol. As the latter may discourage some women from attending you can make it mandatory that the guys bring a bottle of alcohol. Either way, generally speaking expect 50% of the people you tell to bring alcohol to actually bring a bottle and therefore you must plan accordingly.
Responsible alcohol consumption at a party will assist everyone in enjoying themselves and help create an intimate environment. It is advisable to focus on what the women at the party enjoy which is generally vodka. It is not necessary to purchase Grey Goose, Kettle One or Belvedere, however if you do, most women will be impressed. Instead focus on Skyy, Absolut and Smirnoff as most women will drink any type of vodka once they are there. Also, the guys will drink anything. If you have additional funds, Patron makes for excellent shots and a wider variety of types of alcohols will be beneficial including Bacardi Rum, Jack Daniels Whisky, Tangery Gin and flavored vodkas. Also, beer can work well with the crowd as a filler and is generally consumed in greater excess by the guys.
Of nearly equal importance is to have sufficient mixers for the women. Generally, Cranberry Juice and Orange Juice for the Vodka and Coca Cola, Sprite and other soda's for the Bacardi Rum and Jack Daniel's Whisky.
It is also advisable to create a drink that can be stored in a large cooler and frequented by your attendees. I recommend purchasing some grain alcohol and mixing it with some fruit punch like Hawaiian Punch. These types of drinks are generally a success and can be converted into shots if necessary.
It is important to plan not to run out of alcohol as that will bring about an abrupt ending to most parties.
Never underestimate the value of good music and a quality DJ at a pool party. The DJ is not a necessity, however good Top 40 dance music played at a sufficient level is a necessity. Women are much more prone to drink, dance and even swim with good quality music playing. Additionally, the music gives you another option to approach the women as on numerous occasions they will want to exit the pool and dance or simply dance in the pool.
The key to the music is playing to your crowd, however as a general default, it is always a good idea to play the Top 40 hip hop, R&B and dance songs in heavy rotation on your popular radio station. These songs are what people are used to. They dance to these songs at the club, they listen to these songs in the car. Now they will dance to these songs and sing along at your pool party. If you have not provided a DJ, then careful planning must go into developing a CD with these songs prior to the start of the party. Preferably two CD's that can be interchanged and played over and over throughout the day. Your attendees may notice that the songs have been played two or three times throughout the party however that will not matter because they will be the popular that they want to hear over and over again.
It is also very important to keep a type of exclusivity to your pool party. Don't just invite everyone! When you do invite everyone you run into the problem of drifters and people who do not maintain your level of class wandering in and ruining things for you and your guests. Also, it then becomes impossible to control the Girl / Guy ratio at your pool party, which is often one of the most determinative factors in the success of a pool party. Generally, you can invite every girl you know as most girls overall are a bit flaky, however limit the amount of guys that they can bring, unless of course they are close friends of yours.
When you invite guys who you are not necessarily close with explain to them that you are trying to keep a proper girl to guy ratio and it is necessary for them to bring two girls per each guy that they bring and at the very least one girl per guy. You will be surprised at how effective this can be. It also, forces your "friends" to put a little bit of work into helping create the correct ratio and ambiance at the party. YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MANY GIRLS!!! Most parties always have too many guys, remember that. Try to keep your girl to guy ratio around 3 to 2. Once combined with the other aspects of this article, your party will be an enormous success.
A pool party when executed correctly can be one of the most enjoyable and intimate experiences. Careful, planning must go into each aspect in order to insure the events success. Great care must go into location, music, alcohol, invite and timing selection as each will significantly impact the event's success or failure. Also, as from a planning standpoint avoid wet tshirt contests, bikini contests, or anything that will bring down the class of your event and make any of the women attending the party uneasy. With plenty of women, all of the guys will be very happy and your event will be labeled a success.
Let me know how it goes!
