There is always a reason to throw a party. And if you’re staying in one of the luxury villas Mykonos has to offer during your summer vacation, it would be a shame if you didn’t throw a memorable event. So, here is how to organize a party in a villa in Mykonos that your friends will be talking about for years.

Not Sure How to Organize a Party in a Villa? Let’s Start With the Good Old Checklist

Behind every wild, crazy soiree is a well-organized person with a pen and a notepad creating a checklist. Just like you need a trip itinerary, you need a plan for the event as well. If you want your event to be a success, you have to create a checklist to help you organize everything and keep your affairs in order.

Don’t Go Overboard With the Checklist, It Shouldn’t Be Complex

Your checklist is there to help you with the planning of the event, so keep it short and sweet. Separate it into columns if it’s easier for you that way. You can put anything in there, from the food you will be serving to the decorations and the theme, but the only thing that you really need to do is write a list with a detailed number of people you plan to invite to the event. If you’re organizing a soiree only for you and the friends you’re staying with, you can skip this step.

The First Step Is to Find the Right One Out of Many Luxury Mykonos Villas for Your Party

There are a lot of Mykonos villas for rental you can choose from, and they are all the perfect place to house an exclusive event. If you’ve already chosen one of the private villas in Mykonos for your stay, you’re all set. However, if you’re spending your summer vacation on a Mykonos yacht rental, you will need to look for Mykonos villas for rent.

The ideal scenario would be to find one with a private pool since everybody knows that a pool party is always better than a regular one. Once you’ve found the perfect place to host your private party, you can move on to the next step.

Set a Theme for Your Party and Decorate Your Villa

There is definitely no better scenery for a celebration than the one with a view of Mykonos beaches. It’s the most magical setting for an event. However, every good party needs a theme and decorations. You could go very simple with some candles and flowers or set a more specific theme.

Remember that you can always count on your Mykonos concierge to help you out with any questions or requests you might have. A concierge will really make you feel at home. If you feel like you need a planner or professional decorator and you have no idea where to find one, just ring your concierge to help you out.

Watch Out for the Weather

While the weather in Mykonos during the summer months is a pretty safe bet, it does happen that a rainy day ruins the streak of perfect sunny days. That’s why it’s important to check the weather as soon as you set a date for your event. Chances are you will have the perfect warm weather, but you should still double-check that and move the event to a different time if there are any issues. It’s better to wait a day longer than to have everything moved inside the house, people won’t really like that.

Figure Out What You Want to Do for Food – Private Chef Coming to Your House or Simple Appetisers

All good parties require good food, and if you’re already hosting the event on a Greek island, it’s only right to serve Greek food. You’ll have many options when it comes to serving local Mykonos food. If you want a more formal setting, you can hire a private chef to come over to your house and prepare a spectacular dinner.

On the other hand, if you’re going for a more chill setting, you can just serve drinks and small appetizers. Another thing you should remember is to think about your guests and their preferences, so put in a few vegan food options as well. And remember to get at least 10 different kinds of alcohol.

Send Out the Invitations

Once you have everything planned out to the last detail, all that’s left to do is to send out the invitations. You can send them online or go the more traditional route of hand delivering them to each guest. Whichever way you decide to deliver them, make sure to include all necessary information in the invitation – the time and date, dress code, theme, and if it’s BYOB.

Create a Facebook Event and Share It to Get the Word Out and Make Sure Your Event Will Be Fabulous

A Facebook event is also a great way to get the word across, and if you really want your event to be the talk of the town and get featured in magazines, you need to kick it up a notch and make your party fabulous and exclusive. There are several ways you can do this:

  • For starters, have a few celebrities attend, which will attract the paparazzi,
  • Hire security to keep people safe and everything running smoothly,
  • If you really want to go all out, hire a private driver to drive your tipsy guests home instead of them driving their car rentals or taking a taxi.

Have Fun at the Celebration and Enjoy Your Holiday

Mykonos is known for being the best party island out there. And while there are many things to do on this beautiful island, you have to throw a party if you get the chance. Those are the rules. A private pool party at a villa is much better than any Mykonos club, so contact The Ace VIP, rent a villa, organize the event, and have a memorable night while enjoying your vacation.
