To hold a reveal party for....

[Emilybrontescorsett]

My new house?
I'm thinking I could do with some cash as buying a new house is very expensive.
So after the wave of baby shower/gender reveal/henparties/stag parties/weddings etc etc
I've thought of having a kitchen reveal party!!!!!
It would go something along the lines of
Please come to my kitchen reveal party, where I will reveal the worktops/surfaces/units I have chosen, along with flooring choice.
Please bring either a starter, main or pudding plus a bottle of fizz, make sure it is not from Aldi !!!!
Please no cheap crap!
I will enclose a gift list but really really would prefer cash.
If you do happen to bring a gift( and not cash, which is much preferred,) then it must be only from the list and on no account be from any other shop than John Lewis
If you do not live near a John Lewis then please give me cash.

I'll include a tacky poem too.

Anyone who doesn't come will be deleted from my friends list on fb after I have posted a sarcastic meme about only true friends support you in times of need and those who don't can fuck off and die!

What do you think?

Sounds excellent. You also need to get them all to come dressed in your chosen theme colour and turn away anyone who fails to adhere to it. .

If this catches on I may have to hunt you down...

If only I could get away with it!

I love this idea! I'm cleaning my toilet later-do you think I could do a reveal party for it? It will be a very special moment because I am a slovenly, lazy mare that rarely cleans.

Splendid idea, have a no ring no bring policy no partners only smug marrieds
why not write a twee poem about your kitchen and ask for money
I agree if any cheapskates arrive with pishy cheap plonk you sent them away
Make the event *adults only no children (and demand a dress code)

Im guessing this is a piss take???

"Lets post the most ludicrous message for a laugh and see how many posts we get"..

Either that or you have got one brass neck. Glad your not one of MY mates......Plank!!...............

The two tier event is genius!
I shall make sure that those who are invited for beginning and end but not middle are stuck in the arse end of nowhere, with the only accessible drink/food establishment so expensive they will need a second mortgage.
It shall only serve hors o'douvres so the guests will be starving.
That will teach them a lesson and make them try harder to get onto the 'all day list '.

I remember the epi from SATC where Carrie totted up how much she'd spent on her friends' wedding presents, baby showers, and the like.

Abba - money, money, money and the winner takes it all.

Owlina Chaz and Dave rabbit rabbit made me lol!

How about UB40, There's a rat in my kitchen?

Don't forget the dress code! You need to make sure everyone is dressed drably so that your stunning outfit and stunning kitchen colour choices will really be the stars of the event.

I’d recommend a two day event kicking off with an expensive breakfast buffet, progressing to a fancy dress Hemingway themed event.
Launch those Gaudy fire lanterns the ones that will set neighbours shed on fire

So I’m thinking that Lotd Sugar must be running out of ideas by now. How about you pitch this to him for the next series of the apprentice? Both teams have to plan reveal parties, one for the kitchen and one for another room and then you choose the party you prefer?

This is the best reverse ever! SIL, DIL or MIL?

Having a bad day ewen ?

Make more of an effort to get in the 'all day list' 😂😂**

Don't forget to get everyone to take their shoes off at the door

Definitely make it an overnight event and charge the guests to stay at yours, charge them enough to cover all the cost of your party and then some, in case they are cheap with the cash gifts.

Don't discount the Aldi plonk. Why not collect empty champagne bottles from the local restaurants, give them a rinse, then refill with Aldi bubbly? That way you can charge £10 a glass and be part way to funding your next room.

I think you could ask all guests to pay £10 to guess how much money you will actually make. The winner will win £10.

Aw not fair - do you all know of a thread that inspired this inspirational thread? I want to see it!!

Will guests be able to purchase Photo Booth shots of themselves on your sofa's Em? Maybe keyring souvenirs? Fridge magnets? Is there a website where they can order?

I'd go for the people watching.

WTF IS A REVEAL PARTY?

Is there a dress code?

Definitely,no children at event. Although maybe some little ones working the event dressed as butlers distributing canapés, collecting gifts

Dress code?yes do an obscure Hemingway themed event ,requiring effort and cost
