A mafia party requires, of course, certain costumes. These are exquisite and luxurious outfits that embody the vibrant style of the 30s.
Attributes for women: pearl beads, bright open evening dresses, gloves, fans, cigarettes in mouthpieces. Attributes for men: suspenders, butterflies, cigars, revolvers, boots, black suits.
Musical arrangement
Your task is to convey the unique spirit of luxurious gangster parties. Best of all, swing, blues and jazz are suitable for this, so that your guests can dance light and fiery dances of the 30-40s. The immortal hits of Louis Armstrong and Benny Goodman will no doubt decorate your evening.
Required Attributes
The room should also support the general mood. The tables will look good black, white and red tablecloths, repeating the colors of invitation cards. Walls can be decorated with portraits of famous mafia heroes from films, thematic pictures, and stylized photos of guests can be placed on posters in the Wanted style. Cards will look good on the tables, where next to the guest’s name will be written the name of the famous mafioso: Mickey Complaint, Al Capone and others.
A mafia-style party cannot do without a mandatory play area. After all, this is excitement and risk, easy money and adrenaline. Tables covered with green cloth, offering to play poker, roulette, Black Jack - this is sure to please the guests. Let them feel like real mafiosi who can lose a lot of money or break a huge jackpot, spend them on random entertainment, become kings of life. The exit casino will be of great help in this.
Games and Fun
A party in the style of the Italian mafia is fun and excitement, so organize cockroach races, a cigar tasting, an auction, a contest for the title of Bonnie and Clyde parties.
The unwritten rule for such events was the game of the mafia. Guests sit in circles, the host gives them cards with roles: one person is Commissioner Cattani, one third of the guests are members of the mafia and two thirds are respectable citizens. Guests keep their roles secretly. Then begins the change of "day" and "night."
By day, all players open their eyes and collectively decide which of them can be mafiosi. Voting takes place, and if a majority is cast, then the accused is "executed" - they take the card from him and voice the role.
And "at night" everyone closes their eyes - they fall asleep, and mafiosi go out into the streets - they open their eyes and appoint their victim. Their goal is to get to Captain Cattani. Then the mafiosi close their eyes and Captain Cattani “wakes up”, who also chooses the victim. His goal is to calculate the members of the mafia.
When “morning” comes, I open my eyes and the facilitator gives the names of the victims of this night. They give out cards and announce their roles. Then, all together, citizens begin to mend a “court”: they put forward the accused and vote. And so in a circle. Who will win - the mafia or respectable citizens led by the commissioner - depends on the attentiveness and insight of the players.
Now the party in the style of the mafia is becoming one of the most popular, because where else can you plunge into the atmosphere of exquisite style and lighthearted luxury, feel a surge of adrenaline and the joy that absolutely everything is possible in life!
